The Pennsylvania Democrat has been labeled an absentee senator for years. As he floats the possibility of running again, what has he actually done?

The only correction I’ll provide is that the vast majority of Madagascar is on Facebook, not on Twitter. I keep track of, like, a single-digit active Malagasy accounts here? And we rarely do get into discussions that weren’t already well-covered over on FB.

Everytime I mention that BlueSky is just not good for non-US global news and discussion, I get piled on. BlueSky is great for many, many reasons, but the rest of the world is still very much on Twitter / X. What is happening in India is *massive*.

It's so frustrating how people just forget this.

MS Paint-style diagram of a ricochet. A stick figure labeled “You” fires a red line labeled “Bodyshaming” at a second stick figure labeled “Guy u don’t like but will never care.” The line bounces off him and hits a third stick figure at the bottom left, labeled “Person you care about with the same trait who now knows you think they’re ugly.” Red lines radiate from the point of impact on that figure’s chest.

Fab story from Margaret Hamilton, RIP, showing why Science-Mums are brilliant scientists! When innovating at the cutting edge of technology, it's so important to bring together a wide range of lived experiences. Sad that only ~20% comp-scientists are female 👩‍🔬🧪 ℹ️: www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

Left text: Did your life as a software engineer and a mother ever collide?
Often in the evening or at weekends I would bring my young daughter, Lauren, into work with me. One day, she was with me when I was doing a simulation of a mission to the moon. She liked to imitate me – playing astronaut. She started hitting keys and all of a sudden, the simulation started. Then she pressed other keys and the simulation crashed. She had selected a program which was supposed to be run prior to launch – when she was already “on the way” to the moon. The computer had so little space, it had wiped the navigation data taking her to the moon. I thought: my God – this could inadvertently happen in a real mission. I suggested a program change to prevent a prelaunch program being selected during flight. But the higher-ups at MIT and Nasa said the astronauts were too well trained to make such a mistake. Midcourse on the very next mission – Apollo 8 – one of the astronauts on board accidentally did exactly what Lauren had done. The Lauren bug! It created much havoc and required the mission to be reconfigured. After that, they let me put the program change in, all right.

The government has declared datacentres “nationally significant infrastructure projects” that can be forced through the planning system. This means getting preferential access to water. Yet it has no idea what they're used for. Our dwindling supplies might be prioritised for nudifying celebrities.

I’ve talked before about how AI is changing hacking risks: Of the cybersecurity vulnerabilities hackers exploit, almost 90% are reportedly now being attacked on or before the day the vulnerability becomes public knowledge. In 2020, that share was less than 25%.

A couple of billion years ago, cyanobacteria evolved the ability to photosynthesize. Suddenly they could turn the abundant atmospheric C02 into carbon for replicating themselves. The only side effect was the release of oxygen. It was a monumental success, but it ended up turning Earth's C02 […]

I don’t think this is uplifting news. This is evidence that Californian municipal services have utterly failed. Many cities, like Oakland in particular, seem incapable of picking up the trash or curbing dumping.
