Here’s what it says. Sounds like AI is biased.

There is no official or scientifically verified average IQ for the current White House staff or administration. IQ tests are not required for public office or staff positions, and estimates are often speculative or politically biased.

Asking for a friend.

What would Gemini say is the IQ in composite of the present WH administration?

Like cmon. Clearly what is happening is bad enough to have a horrific effect on hospital admissions. How are high-paid journos, school admins, politicians, and healthcare professionals still getting away with REFUSING to acknowledge & deal with student/worker ILLNESS as a driver of absence?!!?

Oh, I didn't think about a parallel like that. Great way to think about it.

Gov. Gen. Mary Simon at United Nations to talk Indigenous rights Gov. Gen. Mary Simon and other Indigenous leaders are heading to the United Nations on Monday to stress the importance of its Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.

This could have been awkward...

Interesting - the modern safety movement is based around the foundation that all systems are operating in a failure mode, or all systems are in the midst of failing.

Fascinating parallel, dynamic stability = constant falling.

Also memories of 'relaxed stability' in high-performance aircraft.

Had I been invited to your thesis defence, my first question would have been "How do you keep the galloping robots stable?"

And it would have gotten worse from there, until I was physically removed.

I hope someone is archiving all the Lego videos for the historical record. I am not sure anyone has spoken truth to power or humiliated it so throughly, as Iran has. They really are exposing so much.

Ex-model, arrested by Aventura police and deported, causes White House stir A Brazilian brought to the U.S. on an Epstein plane at age 16 lashes out at the Trumps, saying she was betrayed by her friend Melania.

Amanda Ungaro was 16 when she was flown to the US on an Epstein plane. She later became close to the Trumps

On Apr. 8, she went on X to threaten legal action vs Melania “and your pedophile husband”

On Apr. 9, Melania made that odd public statement about Epstein

Canada has a choice to make: do what we need to do to save healthcare, protect workers, do right by people with #longCOVID, rescue the economy - or keep pretending it never happened, to protect a medical management class that stabbed us all in the back and now wants to cover it up.

New piece in BMJ by @trishgreenhalgh.bsky.social, Sam Lovell, @jvipondmd.bsky.social, @mjnabuurs.bsky.social and myself on how poor quality trials can bias evidence against respirator use.

Meanwhile, one more nail in the coffin of MAHA's "overdiagnosis" / anything-but-COVID moral panic.

Keep the receipts from all those negligent medical influencers who insisted there was no need to worry about letting kids get infected, that COVID isn't airborne and that respirators don't work.

I see/hear new evidence daily.
Kids saying, "Last year I was my school's best runner. Now I can't run at all. Its hard to breathe."
Tell tale sign of Long COVID but being ignored by doctors and families.
Academics suffering too. Kids can't focus & work. Struggle communicating too. Most in 20+ yrs

Just when confidence in the safety of aviation seems to be slipping, with reason, this bit of "hope":

And my experience yesterday of Copilot (aptly named) completely misreading a document and offering incorrect conclusions.

Very cool that they put this all out there. I had no idea

It hosts more than 770 videos and webcasts containing interviews, tutorials, lectures, and lessons learned in an engaging format that features side-by-side video and slides, powerful search capabilities, downloadable course materials, and more.

Public training videos as well.

I’m keyed up to watch the 3 part series looking at human errors in maintenance.

Followed by some systems engineering best practices, with a side of electromagnetic compatibility testing.

The NESC NASA Engineering and Safety centre is pretty impressive. Cross-organization teams multi-disciplinary collaborating to establish best practices and solve tough problems.

Part of the development out of the two shuttle accidents, and looks reasonably effective.

At least they pivot and update protocol in the case of failures. Meanwhile, ph is still advising handwashing for an airborne virus

No.
Challenger catastrophe was preventable.

As an ER doc and a mom, here are five things I don’t let my kids do because the risks are too high Trampolines, sleepovers and smartphones top the list of things to avoid for your kids

"As an ER doc and a mom, here are five things I don’t let my kids do because the risks are too high"

No mention of preventing viruses with masks or clean air. But god forbid you ever give your child a phone, tablet or social media

Great example of bad science policy communication 👇🏽

This post does not communicate that they don’t propose cuts to the Artemis program. In fact it proposes an increase to their budget. The cut is to the science programs: the curiosity and saving planet earth programs. 🔭🧪 #scicomm

They did a tour of Whyte Ave today and they were the only cars honking. Nobody joined in.

I hope they know they're failing.
