I can't think of a worse idea than replacing natural grass athletic fields with synthetic turf in Los Angeles. Please sign this petition in support of the community effort to prevent that happening at Eagle Rock High School: c.org/zGY6d4jnYg

This address delivered at the Nat Press Club on 9/11/26 by Lt. Gen Jack Shanahan is the most chilling warning of the potentially catastrophic dangers of AI that I have read yet. AND it defines the vocabulary we should use to discuss AI safety in any context: "automation bias" & "epistemic capture"

This is good! I'd add that utility workers aren't to blame for this, aside from the highest-ranking (and highest-paid) executives. But even executive pay is a drop in the ocean compared to profits for utility shareholders, who are overwhelmingly ultra-rich. Anyway, yeah, this is really good!

Remember how power bricks used to be bigger, heavier, hotter, and less powerful than power modern power supplies? The SNES power supply can provide 8.5W and this much smaller GaN USB-PD can supply 65W, at greater efficiency. Well, the same thing is probably going to happen to grid transformers. 🧵

CA issued 190 new well permits in Q1 2026 — 154 for Enhanced Oil Recovery, the dirtiest extraction there is. Total drilling permits, including reworks: 245. Newsom backed the bill that made this possible. "Blatantly hypocritical." — Consumer Watchdog bit.ly/49w1HPl
A graphic by Consumer Watchdog shows an oil field with numerous rigs. Text overlay states: "California approved 320 new oil drilling permits in 2026 (254 in Q1 alone). With 154 of those permits authorizing Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR)." A "Learn More" button is visible.The image is an infographic from Consumer Watchdog about new oil drilling permits issued in California in 2026. It states that 245 permits were issued in the first quarter, with 97 of those in areas facing a moratorium. A quote from Liza Tucker criticizes Governor Newsom's environmental leadership. An inset box, "Table 1," lists permit counts by month, totaling 245. The page includes a "Next Slide" button at the bottom right.Here's a succinct alternative text description for the image:

"Infographic by Consumer Watchdog discussing EOR techniques used in oil production. It highlights the risks of overusing techniques like steam injection and fracking, which can lead to earthquakes and contamination of resources. A quote from Teresa Rudolf of the FracTracker Alliance criticizes California for its approval of new oil extraction methods in Kern County. A 'Next Slide' button is visible."
