Noting the forecast for 9 PM Eastern tonight from the 20Z HRRR for no reason in particular.

I talked to a number of researchers and found that the story is pretty different between the two fields, but in both cases it's more complex than it looks on the surface.
Here's a great training from @peerresearch.bsky.social explaining how researchers can provide the most effective public comments!

In this newsletter I outline important actions to take.
1. Submit a comment opposing the rule change.
2. Contact state legislators to ensure states are engaged with the impact at the state and local level.
3. Contact members of Congress.
4. Spread awareness.
This rundown is a great source:

Machine learning has its limits—how is it being used?
Many pro astrophysicists receive unsolicited letters from amateurs with new but subtly wrong physics theories, often about relativity and from retired engineers. This cute new paper is a perfect reply & I love how it uses cyclotrons & transponders & radar 🧪🔭 arxiv.org/abs/2605.21660
