From an editorial in Science: The #Trump #GoldStandard for science "officially empowers political appointees to override conclusions and interpretations of government scientists, threaten their professional autonomy, and undermine the scientific capacity of research and regulatory agencies."

https://Climate.gov Didn't Fit Trump's "#GoldStandard"
For nearly fifteen years, https://climate.gov was #NOAA’s #climate #science crown jewel.
The site embodied precisely the virtues the new EO trumpets as “#GoldStandardScience”: reproducible, transparent, clearly communicating error and uncertainty, and subject to peer review.
Yet on May 31, the contract that funded the portal’s editorial team lapsed, and on June 24, the standalone domain vanished.

Examples of #Trump #GoldStandard science:

"EPA says power plant carbon emissions aren’t dangerous. We asked 30 scientists: Here’s what they say."

We use #grobid and the plos1000 #goldstandard as a baseline to compare the performance of LLM-based solutions.

Takeaways:

- Grobid still better choice for literature similar to the type it was trained on (mostly English-language STEM scholarship), since it is much faster & less resource-intensive
- For footnoted literature, experiments with LLamore/#Gemini show 3x better performance

Trump’s “#GoldStandard #Science” is already wearing thin
#FDA Commissioner #MartyMakary was on one of weekend news programs, where he was asked about decision to limit pregnant people's access to #COVIDvaccines. Host mentioned that aggregation of studies involving a total of over 1.8M had shown #vaccine was safe and effective.
Makary dismissed all that data because it wasn't "#GoldStandardScience," perfectly illustrating how phrase can be used as a tool to mislead public.

#Trump’s new ‘#goldstandard’ rule will destroy American #science as we know it
#Executiveorder allows political appointees to undermine research they oppose, paving way to state-controlled science
Instead of being about open science, it grants administration-aligned political appointees power to designate any research scientific misconduct based on own “judgment” and includes power to punish #scientists involved; this would weaponize government counter to public interest.

Hallucinating #GoldStandard science

"The #MAHA Report Cites Studies That Don’t Exist."
https://www.notus.org/health-science/make-america-healthy-again-report-citation-errors

"Health Secretary #RFKJr says his “Make America Healthy Again” Commission report harnesses “gold-standard” science, citing more than 500 studies and other sources to back up its claims. Those citations, though, are rife with errors, from broken links to misstated conclusions. Seven of the cited sources don’t appear to exist at all."

I started working on #hyprland yesterday and i LOVE the special workspaces. They are so useful for stuff like #keepassxc. A #tilingwindowmanager on a #laptop is just the #goldstandard for me.

“ #Keynes was haunted by the role that Britain’s #goldstandard #currency, #sterling, had had in fuelling the #economic failures of the #1920s and #1930s, which in turn led to a catastrophic #war.” www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/ideas/econom...

Globalisation has shattered. W...

#Trump is trying to move #America to all of the very worst parts of the neo-liberal shift, Breton woods, and the #Gildedage , just instead of the #goldstandard move to the #crypto standard, all of which only ever help the very rich.

Devaluation/depreciation of the state currency means selling off of the national wealth. Therefore, the government should not devalue/depreciate its currency. If other governments strengthen their currencies, then the government in question must do the same. And the best solution ever is the gold standard.

Presenting at Motto Berlin in 2023, (before the boycott), on my book Ricochet - Cultural Epigenetics and the Philosophy of Change, Ljä Forlag (2021). I also presented on #UFO aka #UAPs the #goldstandard #cryptofascism and #libertarianism
The week prior to the talk I found a plaster model of an #ionic column that was a great prop for talking about #spirals and #interdimensional #travel
