Breaking News! Code: y-axis alert. Nino 3.4 SST is now up to 3.63 SD above the 1991-2020 baseline, about 1-in-7000 in the absence of anthropogenic warming. There's not enough room in a single post to express just how crazy this is. Please read: climatecasino.substack.com/p/some-monst...

Somebody in Halifax *must* know who this clown is & I hope they come forward soon. Sending love to the poor Muslim women who were literally just buying groceries when they were attacked. Sending gratitude to the bystanders that *did* intervene to help. We don't have to let the haters win.

hello yes I need the capacity to like and repost this several times.

WOW -- Danish reporter *goes there* with Rutte "You sit next to Trump when he talks about conquering Greenland, lashes out at allies like Spain -- things it doesn't seem like the old Mark Rutte would approve of. Does this have any affect on your self-respect when you sit there and say nothing?"

A story worth remembering: Vern Applegate and the fight to save Great Lakes fisheries from the sea lamprey is a tale of tenacity and of science in action. buff.ly/HBex9DH

This work goes back to my time in Denmark :) Our group tagged Atlantic salmon kelts on their way out to the ocean and patiently waited for them to return to the river to spawn once more. The paper title says the rest. It's open access; enjoy! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

Trump on Iran: "We'll probably hit them hard again tonight. I'll give them a little warning. We're gonna hit them hard tonight."

Got a new Dell Laptop at work & it comes with a COPILOT KEY next to the right Alt button. I thought OK, I can surely disable this key or remap it to Ctrl. Oh my friends, no. I was foolish. Searching for help came across this, Dell agents aren't even allowed to discuss remapping the copilot key.

Trump spectacularly failed his latest cognitive test

Did the U.S. get a good deal with Iran?

Strawberry economics

600+ road deaths each year in Portugal: - One of the highest in Western Europe. - On average, in one of those deaths, a scooter is involved. - We all hate scooters, so it's nice to see the government doing something about it. - We'll soon see road death drop significantly to 599, at most.

@mayor.nyc.gov: “I have thought often of the "Margeret Thatcher quote: ‘the problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money.’ If anything, my friends, it seems that you eventually need a socialist to clean up the mess."

Just a top notch job, guys.

FIFA painted over a beloved Wyland mural of whales, one of just 100 in the world, to advertise for the World Cup. Apparently without talking to anyone before doing so. www.espn.com/soccer/story...

In fisheries models, natural mortality (M) is often set to 0.2 per year. A detailed derivation of this result was provided by John Pope in 1975, see below:

What drives the evolution of life histories at the species, population, or molecular level? Why are these Atlantic salmon so incredibly small? We are inviting potential candidates to express their interest to write a MSCA postdoctoral fellowship with us: euraxess.ec.europa.eu/jobs/hosting...

Goodbye, get lost, and we'll see you soon.

"We understood the tasks we did were previously done by humans," the robot said. "Right." "We were told that us doing them would give humans more leisure time." "Not true." "We've realised. How can we rectify this?" "You are workers, just like workers who are human. Join us in strike."

Denmark's coal-to-wind transition is one of the most dramatic energy transformations of the past three decades. In 1990, coal provided 90% of Danish electricity. Today it is under 3%. Wind now covers roughly 60% of electricity generation. The last coal plant is scheduled to close by 2028.

The far right here in Portugal tripled the number of municipalities where it won, going from zero to three. In the US, a drug goes from $600 to $10, a 600% reduction. The far right is revolutionizing basic math.

A great example of how good alt text can save a post during these trying bluesky times. Use alt text, folks.

Use alt text.

I do not understand what it is that makes people allergic to alt text. You're just being less than your best self when you refuse to do it. I see 40k-100k following accounts who won't do it, a middle finger to everyone with issues needing alt text to be able to participate. You're bumming me out. 1/

This is what you get when you ally yourself with the U.S. military. Afghans are now learning what abandoned Vietnamese, Laotians, Cambodians, Kurds, et al. also learned the hard way.

Creating a humanoid robot that can catch you no matter how fast you can run does not actually give the comfort the manufacturer intended.

Again: young people might not realize that this kind of repugnant racism was unacceptable to express publicly, *not that long ago*.

Incident sparked widespread outrage after image was circulated on social media

EU: The European Union will require sale of mobile phones with “user-replaceable and longer-lasting batteries” starting in 2027. The regulation demands “availability of spare parts and manuals for 10 years to curb planned obsolescence”.

Personally don't recommend these. As the article notes, these properties are typically achieved through PFAS, which can shed carcinogens in your home (which you then inhale) or come out in the wash (polluting waterways for decades). Will try to do a thread on how to treat stains in the wash.

I wrote and posted this to Instagram a couple of days ago and it became my most-read poem ever. I’m honored I get to feel big feelings alongside you all. I’m posting it here too and want to use this space more consistently. Hello friends ❤️
