Research funding update
Today’s Computing Research Policy Blog contains an appropriations update for NSF, NASA, and NIST with lots of details and links. Because of the way the appropriations process is now configured, and the way the rules in the U.S. House are structured, apparently those agencies now compete for their funding against the interests of state and local law enforcment agencies. A valuable read for those who want to understand the conditions currently helping to determine our nation’s investment in science and engineering research.
