Saturday assorted links
1. Can black holes shed information?
2. “Ancient dogs were much more diverse genetically than modern dogs.” And Finnish Covid-sniffing dogs doing just fine.
3. Admissions pauses and reductions in Harvard graduate programs?
5. When Paul McCartney met Bertrand Russell.
6. Stanford/Hoover disputes over Covid freedom of speech. How is this for Orwellian doublespeak: “There are limitations to academic freedom. What you express has to be honest, data-based and reflect what is known in the field. If you are going to claim academic freedom, you had better be academic, as well as free.”
