It's hard to comprehend the difference between a billion and, say, 50k. This site helps paint that picture. Musk giving away 25 mil of net worth is like me giving away less than 3 bucks of net worth or less than $25 in yearly wages. penniestothem.com #endbillionaires #eattherich

AI is destroying knowledge. Josh's whole video is worth a watch, but the TL;DR is: someone asks ChatGPT a question, it hallucinates an answer, that gets posted on Reddit, then ChatGPT scrapes it's own wrong answers off Reddit for training. #AI www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Qyn...

Let books be. Today kicks off #BannedBooksWeek, an annual observation started more than 40 years ago in response to a sudden surge in attempts to censor or remove books in libraries, schools, and bookstores. Sound familiar? Find ways to get involved and spread the word: bit.ly/4yvixbB.
LET BOOKS BE. Various line drawings related to libraries and books, including a hand holding a sign made of an open book that reads "Freed for ALL to Read," a tote bag that reads "Totes Resist" carrying a book, a full book cart with the head and tale of a horse with text that reads "A Wild Ride," and a closeup of two feet standing on a stack of books that say "A Soap Box" on their spines. Text at bottom reads "Protect the freedom to read. Banned Books Week, October 4-10, 2026." American Library Association. ala.org/bbooks

I read Adam Smith about 15 years back, to see what all this invisible hand stuff people who "understood economics" were on about. I was surprised at how often he mentioned that the point of Gov't is to act as a *counterbalance* on Business for the good of humanity. 250 years ago, alas.

A new NASA study published in Nature suggests there may be no upper limit to how intensely Earth reacts to solar storms. For decades, scientists thought Earth's response capped out, but new data shows solar storm effects on technology could be far worse than realized. 🛰️⚡ 1/4
A diagram featuring a detailed space visualization alongside two comparative line graphs. Top Right: Earth is shown surrounded by a complex network of blue magnetic field lines. Far Right: A blue, curved line denotes the “Bow shock,” which transitions into an orange-red turbulent region labeled the “Magnetosheath.” The “WIND” spacecraft is positioned far to the left in the “Solar wind” stream, connected to a label reading “Measured solar wind strength.” The “THEMIS” spacecraft sits closer to Earth inside the magnetosheath, labeled “Corrected solar wind strength.” Left Graph: Plots “Earth's response [mV/m]” against “Measured solar wind strength [mV/m].” A blue line initially follows a linear path but then flattens out, marked with the text “illusion of saturation due to measurement uncertainty.” Right Graph: Plots “Earth's response [mV/m]” against “Corrected solar wind strength [mV/m].” A pink line continues steadily upward diagonally, labeled as the “True linear response.”

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.
