New international student enrollment at U.S. colleges and universities plunged 17% in fall 2025, the steepest non-pandemic decline in over a decade, according to data released today by the Institute of International Education. More than half of the 825 institutions surveyed reported decreases, with a majority citing visa application concerns. lead , Neal McCluskey, Director of Cato’s Center for Educational Freedom, warns: “Dropping international student enrollment is troubling for American higher education and the country. The United States […]
Tweet … is from page 130 of Norbert Michel’s superb and data-rich 2025 book, Crushing Capitalism: How Populist Policies are Threatening the American Dream: Regardless of the politics, the evidence simply does not connect widespread economic difficulties to “trade with China” or competition with “cheap labor.” The evidence also fails to support the widely repeated claim that the typical American worker’s real wages have not budged in decades. Although there is no single “right” way to measure income […]

Powerful institutions are using automated decision-making against us. Landlords use it to decide who gets a home. Insurance companies use it to decide who gets health care. ICE uses it to decide who must submit to location tracking by electronic monitoring. Bosses use it to decide who gets fired, and to predict who is organizing a union or planning to quit. Bosses even use AI to assess the body language and voice tone of job candidates. And these […]
Coding with large language models (LLMs) holds huge promise, but it also exposes some long-standing flaws in software: code that’s messy, hard to change safely, and often opaque about what’s really happening under the hood. Researchers at MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) are charting a more “modular” path ahead. Their new approach breaks systems into “concepts,” separate pieces of a system, each designed to do one job well, and “synchronizations,” explicit rules that describe exactly […]
The following press release was issued today by the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard. Although outbreaks of Ebola virus are rare, the disease is severe and often fatal, with few treatment options. Rather than targeting the virus itself, one promising therapeutic approach would be to interrupt proteins in the human host cell that the virus relies upon. However, finding those regulators of viral infection using existing methods has been difficult and is especially challenging for the most […]
Live session with Vincent Granville, Chief AI Architect and Co-founder at BondingAI. Scaling databases is a tricky balance. Teams need speed and reliability, but costs keep rising. From runaway infrastructure bills to overprovisioned clusters and slow queries, companies often spend more without seeing better performance. Join for a practical session on how to reduce database total cost of ownership (TCO) without sacrificing performance. Vincent will share strategies that leading organizations are using to control costs, optimize systems, and […]
