I also recently watched the 2023 Chilean film "Los colonos," about the genocide of the Selk'nam in Patagonia at the beginning of the 20th century, and similarly the final ten seconds just floored me in a way that was really unexpected www.youtube.com/watch?v=WDQ9...

THIS IS HUGE! Researchers at Stanford University have developed a dual-antibody treatment that remains effective against ALL SARS-CoV-2 variants by targeting a less-mutable part of the virus. This breakthrough could lead to longer-lasting therapies that OUTPACE viral evolution. 🧪🧵⬇️
I wish I could edit the post. I re-read it and it is a wonder you understood it :-)

I use is Fongo, and Skype as fallback. I guess the downside for you is that Fongo, and possible that you can only get a Canadian number (but Canadians are as nice as kiwis :-). Getting the right add-on, you can make calls everywhere in the globe.
Good morning with good news: Chile is using wind and solar to rapidly decarbonize its grid. Wind and solar skyrocketed from 5.50% of Chile's electricity in January 2016 to 42.93% in January 2025!
Jan 2025 43%
Jan 2022 31%
Jan 2019 14%
Jan 2016 5.50%
Rapid decarbonization!

Which is very, very, very different
Big 🧵 of research on usage of social media by researchers, from one of the best thinkers on community, data, and ethics.
