Benvenuto nel Poliverso

"75% of scientific researchers in the U.S. are considering leaving the country" - must-watch if you haven't fully grasped yet the attack of Trump on US science.. It's somehow more impactful to see actual testimonies instead of facts and numbers:
youtube.com/watch?v=yLvO070E_d…

The whole #Trump thing is sad but the long-term damage of what he is doing against research and science, not just in the US but worldwide, is horrible. Just like the damage on the planet, it is not too late to resist of and fix it though! Universities should stick together, people should come out in support of scientists, PIs should come out of their silence - as in this video - to alert the public on the ongoing destruction.

Scientists, due to the hellish employment conditions in academia, already are highly mobile and expect to work in all sorts of different cities - so why not in different countries as well?

Well:

scientists are humans too, they might have a family / friends / roots in a place and not want to leave them.
the current world is generally making immigration difficult and costly
academic jobs are hard to find in any country. At least the US had quite a lot of funding for that. The competition for jobs is even harder in most other countries.
once you have an established lab, which might take years to set up, having to restart from scratch somewhere else is a giant waste of time
each country has its own rules, language, scientific priorities etc. which may be different from those in the us

... and I'm sure there's a lot more that could be added to this list.

Speaking from my own experience, the scientists who get to stay in one place with their family / friends / roots are very lucky, and very rare.

@juergen_hubert yes, it doesn't mean all the other scientists who didn't already get uprooted once or twice want to do it again

EDIT: here's a video: mastodon.bsd.cafe/@stefano/115…

Yes, my old python program to control my heaters is still working. I just had to adapt it to python 3 and modify the code so the old ds1820 sensors aren't needed anymore, I can connect it to my mqtt server. And get the temp from the esp8266 I placed many years ago, all around the house. I've also put a relay on one of them and it works fine.

Oh, and all is running on a Raspberry PI Zero W, powered by NetBSD.

Here's a short video about my cloudless, portable, small, low-resource "smart thermostat". It doesn't need an internet connection and uses MQTT. Here, it's directly driving a relay.
It's running on a Raspberry Pi Zero W, powered by NetBSD, in read-only mode.
I used it for years and it's time to go back to it, cloudless and local.

In fact, it's more than fine. I think it's great!

@mkj that's the reason why I'm revamping it. I created it in 2009/2010 as I needed to find a way to turn on heathers before getting back home from long trips. So it was ssh only and simple. In 2012 it went into a Raspberry Pi inside the wall, and a nice led indicated the status. When I sold that house, in 2015 and moved, I started to use a Netatmo device - which is still running fine - as that setup would have been too complex here. But it's time to give it a new life.

One more example of the canonization of Charlie Kirk being used to punish speech. Just as abusive of freedom of speech in death as he was in life.

@Orb2069 The governor gets to appoint someone (from the same party, so another Republican) for the remainder of his term and then there will be a regular election in November and this woman (who rocks) is set to run for that seat.Orange County is somewhat conservative so it may be a tight race but I think fewer and fewer people want to vote for ANY Republican right now.
