"Code is cheap. Show me the talk" by Kailash Nadh https://nadh.in/blog/code-is-cheap/

Hundreds fired at NOAA. The strategy that climate chaos isn't real if there's no data to prove it might not play out so well on the ground. Impacts and suffering will only be more severe without crucial forewarnings on droughts, hurricanes & floods - not to mention ocean heatwaves and health.

"All of the probationary employees at Noaa’s Environmental Modeling Center, which improves weather, marine and climate predictions, lost their jobs"

The stupidity.
