This is how authoritarian regimes dig themselves into the grave. They "discipline" people telling them the truth as they see it, instead of what they want to hear. It takes time, but eventually leads to military disaster and economic collapse.

Don’t talk about this a lot online but I published an academic book recently and I think it’s pretty good. Thinks with the categories of prophecy, apocalypse, & history to rethink the early euro Middle Ages. Would love to talk more about it! #medievalsky bookshop.org/p/books/betw...

Utmerket tekst!

Jeg skriver i @morgenbladet.no at staten har mye bedre råd enn det som hevdes i statsbudsjett og perspektivmelding. Når man regner riktig, øker handlingsrommet i år med 10-gangeren. Vi har altså råd til å støtte Ukraina mer, øke nødhjelpen og gi noe skattekutt. www.morgenbladet.no/ideer/staten...

✍️ New article: Billions of people have access to far less electricity per day than is required to run an air conditioner for just one hour. For five months of the year, temperatures in South Sudan’s capital, Juba, climb above 35 degrees Celsius (95 degrees Fahrenheit).

"We should return to citation techniques where we actually quote the text directly and state the page number". Kildehenvisninger må bli mer presise. Det gjelder både studenter og forskere.

Interessant paradoks!

Nettopp

Det virker på norsk også, @olavslettebo.bsky.social!

Staten bare eser ut!! Ikke bra. Kudos til Avisa Valdres, som var på ballen allerede i 1903!

Veldig interessant kommentar fra Steinar Juel. www.dn.no/samfunn/hels...

Just now: Jordan Bardella and his party voted against the €90B EU loan to Ukraine in the European Parliament. This aid is crucial to Ukraine, and the vote shows once again that the RN sides with Russia. Traitors will be traitors

‼️ 2 month left to the election in Hungary 🇭🇺 (12 april). Orban gonna try everything he can to rigg the election this time too, with help from Russia. Hungary 🇭🇺 is ranked as the poorest country in Europe, because of Orbans corruption. All eyes on Hungary, they deserve better. 🙏

🛢️ THE END OF RUSSIA’S OIL ERA 🇺🇸🇮🇳 The US has forced India to abandon Russian oil. In return, Washington cut tariffs on Indian exports from 25% to 18%. If India resumes buying Russian oil, tariffs will be raised again.

Canadisk villaks kommer tilbake når oppdrett fjernes! Herlig å se politikk virke! Glad havforskerne er klare på at det samme kan være mulig i Norge også, selv om den politiske motstanden mot å ta grep mot oppdrett i åpne merder ikke akkurat er mindre her enn i Canada.. www.nrk.no/nordland/can...

Eit framifrå val. Gratulerer så mykje, @aasew.bsky.social! www.regjeringen.no/no/aktuelt/a...

From today’s Russian papers: “You don’t have to be an economist to forecast a recession: Russia’s export revenue is falling, budget revenues are falling, taxes rising, consumer demand shrinking…” Another paper: “Oil & gas revenues fall…rise in bread prices.” #ReadingRussia

When are we going to collectively wake up and realize that it's all a scam and the main (sole?) purpose is crime?

A passenger aircraft, the An‑28, armed with miniguns, is shooting down russian "Shahed" drones over Ukraine - French TV channel TF1. The crew of the plane,reportedly made up of civilian volunteers, has already destroyed around 150 drones.

#Bitcoin explained in two posts: #$BTC

Alle gaver til norske Ukrainian Freedom Convoys (UFC) i februar dobles med inntil 2 millioner kroner, takket være støtte fra en samling bedrifter og privatpersoner. Dette betyr: 2 millioner inn = 4 millioner ut til ukrainske soldater. 🧵1/3

Security conference in Oslo, #Norway. – We are giving Ukraine enough to survive, but not enough to win, says Polish Foreign Minister @radek-sikorski.bsky.social. It is very important to talk about Ukrainian VICTORY, not just survival, to counter the false Russian narrative. #Ukraine #Russia

Bitcoin is getting pretty close to being down 50% from its October peak, and it's hard not to view that as one of the most positive indicators we've had in a while.

To win the cultural and intellectual battle, Europe must now assert its values and defend its model of development, fundamentally opposed to the nationalist-extractivist model of Trump and Putin thomaspiketty.wordpress.com/2026/02/03/e...

Rusting og infrastruktur?

En liten overdrivelse, men et veldig viktig poeng.

Pretty much the entire history of technological innovation is a new product that’s worse but cheaper. Your electric razor is not as good as a barber with a knife, your AI is not as good as an executive assistant, even your mass produced wine is not as good as 500 year old vine grown French wines.

Kaja Kallas: In the last 100 years, Russia has attacked at least 19 countries, some as many as three or four times. None of those countries has ever attacked Russia.

#putler strategy don't work. #warcrimes will not win you anything.

Cross-posting this comment from Jeet Heer over on Twitter. It really is kind of funny that Musk is just totally unable to pick up on code and innuendo.

I don't often share my own emotions here.I mostly stick to facts&reason. But I'm actually a very emotional person. The situation in #Kyiv with freezing people in cold homes that are left without electricity,heating &water during the cold winter after deliberate Russian attacks is simply terrible⤵️

The London Economic har anmeldt filmen.

On this day in 1933, Adolf Hitler was named chancellor of Germany.

So it looks like Trump is going to nominate Warsh. Couple of thoughts: 1. Lol at the whole Rick Rieder stuff last week. Good plot twist at the end of this season of The Apprentice. 2. Feels like an odd pick to me. Warsh was almost always hawkish & wrong during 2006-11. www.ft.com/content/e227...

Hvorfor øker vi ikke støtten til Ukraina? Vi har pengene, men deler bare smuler av dem. Vi har aldri vært rikere. Russland forsøker å fryse den ukrainske befolkningen i hjel. Det er 2026. Russland må stoppes.

Fourteen-year-old Nastia, who was injured in a Russian missile strike on Ternopil and lost her mother, grandfather, and family home, has taken her first steps after two months of treatment in Lviv. Nastia suffered deep burns to 15% of her body, including her face, neck, eyes, arms, and legs.

Oh dear, how sad, never mind 👍👇

Dette er ikke bra i det hele tatt. En katastrofe for norsk næringsliv om Frp gjør dette. Den politiske risikoen ved å investere i Norge vil skyte i været. www.dn.no/politikk/mel...

Orban is claiming it's Ukraine's fault his party is behind in Hungarian election polls. As the Hungarian opposition pulls well ahead of Orban with a 10% lead, he's accusing Ukraine of election interference. Blaming others for your own mistakes will always be an asshole move.

Sorry for stating the obvious here, but: Don't believe anything until the Kremlin denies it❗❗❗

Og Arvo Pärt viser ingen tegn til å, øhm, FRATRE posisjonen som den mest fremførte nålevende komponisten

En fireåring i Kyiv er nå gjort foreldreløs på grunn av at vi fortsatt tillater Russlands terrorbombing av Ukraina. Hvorfor gjør vi ikke mer for å støtte motstandskampen? R. Næss i Nordea anslår at vi har 3000 mrd i merprofitt pga krigen. Og vi kutter støtten reelt, når vi burde øke den kraftig.

Russia attacked several regions of Ukraine last night. There are dead and injured, damages and ruins - just like every night of this horrible war. #Kyiv region: two people dead - parents of a 4-year-old child, who is now an orphan. Four more people injured. A residential building attacked.

Video from this morning shows ICE agents deploying tear gas outside a Minneapolis preschool as parents shout, “This is a preschool! There’s kids here!”

Translated: Trump admin’s values is in direct conflict with the constitution.

En meget god kommentar fra @kariekaski.bsky.social Det er mye som har forandret seg siden SPU ble opprettet i 1990. Det er absolutt verdt å se nærmere på hvordan pengene forvaltes, og hva vi bruker avkastningen på. e24.no/norsk-oekono...
