I don’t think we talk nearly enough about the fact that corporations like Amazon, don’t pay a single cent to maintain the roads they use, the transportation system they use, the courts they use, they pay nothing for the infrastructure that is absolutely critical to their business.
WE Pay for
literally letting robots compete while banning trans people 🙃
We already KNOW how to make super babies, you eugenicist creeps! And it's all the things you fucking fucks are fucking up! THREAD!
LLMS are:
- Causing energy demands that commit us to a worse future
- Eroding brainpower of children through adult humans
- Making software and hardware less usable
- Creating a massive economic risk
But sure try to convince me they are worth infusing into every component of our lives.
Congrats on “opening” a strait that was open six weeks ago, and all it cost was at least 13 dead service members, thousands of dead Iranian civilians, tens of billions in taxpayer dollars, our loss in global standing, and the Iranian regime’s increase in power. Phenomenal work.
Clearly not in the EU, although still in Europe :)
Humm.. not all European institutions. Manchester is giving everything away to Microsoft and Copilot...
A HUGE, narrative-breaking moment for the UK car market
New EVs are now cheaper than petrol cars on average, says Autotrader
Last yr CCC said price parity was due by 2028 – and it's already here
And EVs are already MUCH cheaper to run than petrol

Getting real tired of "AI will revolutionize your workflow!" I am a scientist! I do what I do because I want to dig into things myself. I don't want offload that labor onto a computer, and I don't need to accelerate the rate at which I work, because the point of the work is to learn.

The same people who argue with climate scientists about who knows more about climate are naturally going to argue with the Pope about who knows more about Jesus.
Isn't it beautiful 🤨
This week we're in the field at the Ries impact crater in Germany to study how impacts create and shape rocks and landscapes. Behold volatile escape structures in suevite impact melt ☄️🪨
Amazon, which saved $4B in taxes under Trump's Big Ugly Bill, has cut 30,000 jobs since last October.
Verizon, which saved $2B, plans to cut 15,000 jobs this year.
Meta, which saved $3B, plans to lay off 20% or more of its workforce.
Trickle-down economics is a cruel joke.
no one is doing it like jd vance, a loser across three continents in a single weekend
Look at the women at NASA.
They are the ones pushing the boundaries of science, solving problems most people can’t even understand, and carrying this country forward, while our politicians right now posture and stumble through talking points.
And they are doing it all with joy.👇

12039 is gorgeous 😍
People in positions of power who can intervene rarely do so because it would negatively impact them. "I don't want to cause a fuss or have [bad actor] come after me." Assuming they choose to even acknowledge the issue. HR exists to protect the institute and it's assets. Not the employees.
🤣🤡
Dont think it's a side hustle. Everything they say and do is to make money. There is nothing else that matters.
$2 million per ship — to cross a Strait that was free six weeks ago.

The biggest story in the world right now is that the president of the United States is a demented old man who takes pleasure in torturing and killing people and is committing crimes with impunity. And yet most legacy media outlets are too cowardly to tell it like it is.
"The project isn't the deliverable. The project is the vehicle. The deliverable is the scientist that comes out the other end."
I encourage grad student advisors (and grad students) to read this. All the pithy hot takes miss the point, this is a breath of fresh air.

Another beautiful Easter message from the President who loves Jesus with all his heart and soul.
$0 for STEM really gives the game away. They absolutely hate science and truth at a fundamental level
I shocked i tell you shocked!!! 😱 (not). If space scientists and astronomers applaud programmes like #Artemis without thinking ahead about where this current Administration is heading in order to fund it then they are frogs simmering in the boiling water 🤔 #astronomy #space
This is the right hill to die on
Europe is the shield against imperialism. The US is gone.
