Reminds me of this story from Vox following what happened to Ahmed Mohamed after making a clock in Texas, a decade ago. www.vox.com/2015/9/18/93...

Not an American, but climate science is the most global science there is. My ability to affect the outcome is limited to this repost, but a lot of you are in a position to do more. researchworks.ucar.edu

Another thing worth remembering - in the US, at least, it's in fact possible to win with some positions that are only supported by 27% - even if we would prefer to remember it differently. Just ask the 44th President re. how popular his signature "Day 1" promise was. news.gallup.com/poll/171653/...

Yet, I still see some people refer to "AI summaries" even on here... www.computerworld.com/article/4077...

Interesting how this intersects with the estimate of a somewhat higher level of authoritarian support in ROK than in the U.S. Either the Pew measure is flawed, or there's a tipping point for backlash once a large enough political fraction goes authoritarian. www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/...

I have seen numerous replies claim that this is just "the crazification factor". While I think that the concept in general has merit, it ought not be taken as an absolute - lest you find yourself arguing that those who wanted to close Guantanamo were the crazy ones. news.gallup.com/poll/171653/...

I enjoy seeing people geek out like this and suddenly drop such mega threads (circa 20 entries, by my estimation) - especially when it's for a good cause too! We need to support such effort!

What you mean?

Back from a 2-week break and well...safe to say we all saw the news. If anyone needs my Venezuela position: when a guy reelected after a self-coup kidnaps the handpicked successor of a dead guy elected after he tried his own coup...hard to feel sympathy for anyone. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Februar...

If this is what The Atlantic does to RFK Jr., why is it so hard to imagine they would go further with someone they plucked off the street? (2nd image from the link, not from The Atlantic.) arstechnica.com/health/2025/...

Please see this thread! I wish I could think of a personal infrastructure book recommendation on the spot to add to this: since I cannot, I'll guess share a report instead. americanedgeproject.org/wp-content/u...

This appears to be the source. It also singles out Reuters - but at least Reuters didn't (seem to) debase itself like this recently. Please remember that like anything else to do with LLMs, AI summaries/overviews are NEVER to be trusted on their own. www.desmog.com/2023/12/05/r...

Others missed it, but I think it's worth emphasizing - even in THIS group, which includes these opinions on Jews and Hitler (as well as young women saying feminism failed, seemingly everyone not caring about aiding Ukraine, etc.), 35% (7 out of 20) are AGAINST deporting all undocumented immigrants.

Between this and that Manhattan Institute vox populi, we've got a combo here. archive.md/F8qk6

Indeed. I would only add that the USSR was criminally negligent when it watched the destruction of strategic bombing throughout WWII (i.e. next door in Japan), yet made few preparations to protect Korea. This could shoot down B-29s, but nowhere near enough were provided. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KS-19

@annemiekstegehuis.bsky.social Hi! Welcome to BlueSky! Australian environmental science student here. Sadly, I don't have a good mangrove question at hand. What I would like to ask instead: since you are at a French institution, have you perhaps seen this? www.jean-jaures.org/publication/...

@danvisioni.bsky.social I that the OP is a "Climate Science Writer & Advocate" so that final takeaway about 2100 warming is almost certainly BS, but I would still be interested in your opinion on the paper's implications as an expert in aerosols. acp.copernicus.org/articles/25/...

@whstancil.bsky.social Remarkable how you remain positive on AI in spite of it precisely fitting your theories of social degradation, and you experiencing more of its..."cultural power" firsthand than almost any other individual.

More context about me beyond the bio (1/2): *The environment is what I study, and the bulk of my replies/reposts will likely be devoted to it * Another major interest is (military) history: I first joined here to follow @bretdevereaux.bsky.social * Whenever I review something, I'll post about it

I haven’t seen this get covered in English yet so let me translate. Grok is saying that the crematories at Auschwitz’s were conceived as disinfectant chambers, not mass execution and that the law has made it taboo to acknowledge that this is what they were X is a Nazi site. Get off the Nazi site.

Between this lady and Stuart Seldowitz, who went viral for racially abusing a food truck worker, what a terrible look for Obama staffers.

Alright #filmsky , let's do this! Might as well start sharing my multi-paragraph LB reviews here as I write them, and see if that changes anything at all. First up, #bugonia . Hopefully, this is sufficiently spoiler-free for those who have not seen it. letterboxd.com/yardcg/film/...

Kathy Hochul could bring down bills and protect our future by building 15 gigawatts of public renewables. Instead, she's raising bills to build Trump's fracked gas pipeline and a crypto mine. Is this why? www.nytimes.com/2025/11/13/n...

I wish I could edit out that typo! Still, I hope at least a couple more people get to see this, and perhaps offer suggestions!

What a world where it's Ars Technica which bothers to do the hard, hard work of reading a book someone wrote under their own name and the scion of one of the most celebrated U.S. journalists in history does this.

So many of these! timesmachine.nytimes.com/timesmachine...

Wild how you can see the similarities with what they wrote almost exactly a century ago.

You know, this COULD have been done by a responsible interviewer. Get Nuzzi to open up about his "eyes blue like the flame" (on a gas stove?!) and crying at the sight of roses...THEN ask her if she also rejects germ theory and believes in white man's burden, and lead with THAT. (Credit in alt text)
