The intellectual quality of the #degrowth vs green growth debate is horrible. Which is sad given that it's about keeping the planet inhabitable. Been trying to study best statements of each position but only found ambiguity and bad reasoning on all sides. Convince me I overlooked something? #econsky

Got a "your paper was cited" notification and checked it out. The sentence where my paper was cited has nothing to do with the content of my paper. Seems like AI did not hallucinate a reference for the authors but produced an unrelated one. Has anybody else experienced this? #academicsky #philsky

A PhD student at CambridgeHPS has been putting “artwork signs” up all around our department next to “ordinary things” and they are brilliant. They unfailingly make me stop and smile and notice the wonderful strangeness of the world ✨ Best workplace spirit-lift hack I’ve seen in a long time 🙌

Pot with branch from dead plant in a windows sill. Next to it is another plant and a watering pot. Bellow, a sign is stuck on the wall reading - Artist: unknown. Dead plant, 2024. Glass, plastic, wood and misc. organic material. The precise placement of this piece among a collection of living plants allows the unknowns artist to remind the viewer of the inescapable cycle of life and death, as well as the capricious nature of the Ava rage house plant.
