💸100.000 millones de euros: esa es la estimación de los daños causados por la evasión fiscal cada año en Alemania: 270 millones de euros al día, 11 millones de euros a la hora. Sobre la trama de lavado de dividendos y las operaciones Cum-Ex y Cum-Cum. Anne Brorhilker ✍️ ctxt.es/es/20251001/...

I cannot stress how life-changing UV from Astral is for a PhD student running Python/PyTorch code from multiple projects and across various HPC machines 🤯. Big kudos to the team!!!

I recall a wise person saying that the reason the tech bros had so much confidence in AI wasn't that they understood tech so well, it was that they understood humans so little. I keep thinking about that.

La periodista de Reuters Valerie Zink abandona la agencia y publica un comunicado denunciando la cooperación de ésta con la propaganda israelí referida al asesinato de periodistas en Gaza. Reposteo este, que tiene los textos en ALT junto a las capturas de dicho comunicado.

Sierra Leone imported enough solar panels in one year to make up 65% of their entire nation's generating capacity. If you're not preparing for massive drops in fossil fuel demand, you're not paying attention. electrek.co/2025/08/25/c...

🚨 IEA now says renewables will be the world’s #1 power source by 2026 (possibly as soon as 2025). Wind & solar already supply >90% of demand growth, coal’s decline is baked in. The tipping point is here—clean energy isn’t the future, it’s the present. ⚡🌞 #Renewables #EnergyTransition #BESS

“Wait,” I said, before clicking the link. “What does Google have to do with earthquake emergency alerts in Turkey?” spoiler alert the answer is “giving us all a haunting glimpse into the privatization of science and emergency management”

It's no coincidence that this yr & last yr's strong +NAO summers have came after major strat warming events in early spring Persistent +NAO both yrs has kept the Atlantic cooler/more stable than it otherwise would be & shouldn't be ignored in seasonal hurricane fcsts www.nature.com/articles/s43...

🚨 Our research is on the cover of Nature Climate Change! 🌍🔥🌊 We explore how climate change-driven wildfires could increase the deposition of iron to the oceans, potentially boosting marine productivity and CO₂ uptake, especially in the North Atlantic. 📄 Paper 👉 doi.org/10.1038/s415...

This hits different. In Norman, passed by the National Weather Center, where I studied for part of my MMet and PhD and learned so much. I wouldn’t be where I am without what I gained from my time and the people here.

1/ As a data platform company, we get a unique view of how other companies use data. In light of the recent cuts at @noaa.gov, our CEO, @rabernat.bsky.social, reached out to our customers to get their perspective on the value of NOAA’s data and services.

Current status: obsessed with flow models - such a beatiful framework 😻 Blows my mind that all the math that I learned in fluid dynamics can be applied to the probability space.

The Trump administration is planning to cancel its lease at a government laboratory in Hawaii, a site where scientists support key observations of surging greenhouse gas levels in the atmosphere, according to a list obtained by Democratic members of Congress and shared with The Post.

Here we go! 100% of ECMWF ensemble goes for a reversal of 10 hPa 60°N zonal winds on ~10 March. Most ensemble members seem to indicate this would be a final stratospheric warming (FSW), rather than an SSW, because of a lack of a sustained return to westerlies. Similar to event of 5 March 2016.

Is this a subseasonal window of opportunity? Regimes can provide one way of identifying such situations. Recent runs of the GEFS and ECMWF subseasonal forecast models show an extremely large signal for the Pacific Ridge regime from late January through February. simonleewx.com/ecmwf_north_...

A common question nowadays: Which is better, diffusion or flow matching? 🤔 Our answer: They’re two sides of the same coin. We wrote a blog post to show how diffusion models and Gaussian flow matching are equivalent. That’s great: It means you can use them interchangeably.

Molt agraït per l'oportunitat d'exposar la meva recerca a les XXX JEF. Va ser un dia ple de ciència d'alt nivell amb molta consciència social. Enhorabona a @acam-cat.bsky.social per l'organització i el trentè aniversari!

The Arctic stratospheric polar vortex, up at 10hPa (~30km), looks like to approach date-record strength in early December. Both ECMWF and GEFS forecasts continue to show this. 🧵

Tot seguit, tindrem tres ponències amb investigadors del BSC-CNS, que ens explicaran diferents aplicacions de la IA en la predicció estacional (@lluispalma.bsky.social), en la qualitat de l'aire (Jan Mateu) i en la reconstrucció històrica dels usos del sòl (@amirpasha.bsky.social).
