Ho appena letto sul sito di Repubblica la notizia secondo cui nella Striscia di Gaza ci sono stati 10 morti per fame nelle ultime 24 ore, 3 bambini. E mi è tornato in mente un magnifico verso di Asmae Dachan: … hanno fame d’amore, i bambini in guerra, fame di corse spensierate e giochi, di colori e voci che ridono, fame di madri e padri, e amici, fame di vita … E mi sono profondamente vergognato.

@gerardocanfora: Vergognarsi anche di Hamas che li usa come scudi e di quel curioso gruppo di membri dell'ISIS, foraggiati da Israele che fanno le porcherie che gli altri non riescono più a fare?

The Telegraph reports the EU is discussing reopening airports in western Ukraine, starting with Lviv. The phased plan aims to restore commercial flights, with Europe ready to back Ukraine with fighters and air defenses, later expanding to Kyiv and further east.

Histoire (typique) bouffonne du jour.

Une entreprise qui donne des cours de langues en ligne paye un sondage avec deux questions "Quel est votre sentiment face aux fautes de français?" (inacceptable / pas si grave / pas d'opinion) et "Faites-vous des fautes de français, et si oui, à quelle fréquence et dans quel contexte?". Stratifié par âge, et c'est tout.

Le but c'est que les résultats soient repris largement par les médias, avec le nom du commanditaire et ça fait de la publicité pour cette boite de cours de langues. Une sorte de pub déguisée, courante. Avec comme première entourloupe un jeu sur la confusion entre langue et #orthographe, une question posée très vague (on ne sait pas trop ce que les gens mettent derrière "faute de français" et une interprétation comme "bah ... orthographe".

Le plan marche bien, plein de médias reprennent. Mais manque de pot les résultats au sondage ne sont pas terribles pour le but recherché, un peu plus de la moitié des gens répondent que "c'est pas si grave" ou "pas d'opinion", ce qui demanderait un peu d'analyse. Donc deuxième entourloupe : les journaux titrent en mettant en avant les 49% qui ont répondu "c'est inacceptable", sans vraiment focaliser sur le fait qu'ils ne sont que 49%...

Et pour couronner le tout, les articles là dessus sont vides d'info, ils disent vaguement que les vieux sont plus intolérants que les jeunes (un scoop) sans se risquer à la moindre analyse ou interprétation, se copient entre eux, à se demander s'ils ont été générés quasiment par un LLM.

Cerise sur le gâteau : celui de BFM trouve le moyen de confondre, dans le même paragraphe, les verbes "invoquer" et "évoquer", utilisés comme synonymes... Y a-t-il des gens qui "invoquent" le stress ? Pour une fois, ça aurait servi à quelque chose de distinguer ces deux verbes, au moins dans un article qui porte sur le rapport "des Français" aux fautes 😅 :il_faut_un_peu_reflechir:

On vous met des petites captures d'écran pour rire, mais pas de lien parce qu'on va pas faire non plus de la pub gratos pour ce genre de chose...

The Grey Horse, Philips Wouwerman, c. 1646
A grey horse, whose reins are held by a boy, plays the leading role in this small panel. The horse stands out
clearly against the dramatic cloudy sky. Wouwerman’s rendering of the animal with its almost palpable coat
is very lifelike. By choosing a low vantage point, the artist strengthened the painting’s monumental effect.

Trump is probably not on his way out right this moment. But it also seems somewhat unlikely, given his clearly declining health, he makes it the full four years.

We’re filling the atmosphere with CO2 like a bathtub with water. Most of it stays for millennia.
That is why the cumulative emissions (the total amount, as pictured here) and not yearly emissions determine the amount of #globalwarming.
in reply to Prof. Stefan Rahmstorf

The warmer the atmosphere the more water vapor is in it. Water vapor also is a very powerful greenhouse gas

Yes I know. Climate model discount water vapor on the basis that the water vapor doesn’t last long in the atmosphere.

The reality is, however, that the air temperature itself along with water availability, determines the amount of water vapor in the atmosphere.

This is why climate reporting obsesses exclusively about CO2 and falls down on the systemic breakdown. Generally, the public only understands CO2 and not the consequence of higher temperatures itself.

Earth, Wind & Fire. In the Stone

EWF are always good value but I particularly like this late addition to their playlist. In the Stone has it all, the EWF percussive rhythm, those brilliant horn stabs, the heart felt vocals & that extra something EWF always bring to the dance floor.

(My introduction to EWF was seeing them in the 70s supporting Santana in London - what a night!)

Zehntausende vermisst - und ein hilfloser mexikanischer Staat

Rund 127.000 Menschen gelten in Mexiko als vermisst, viele von ihnen werden von Kartellen rekrutiert, oft gewaltsam. Die Opfer der Kartellkriege werden verscharrt. Sie zu finden und zu identifizieren ist eine Mammutaufgabe. Von J. Barke.

Der "Staat" Mexiko existiert nicht mehr. Er besteht nur noch aus Vasallen der Drogenkartelle.
F: Wie konnten die so mächtig werden?
A: Durch extrem viel Geld.
F: Woher kommt das viele Geld?
A: Aus den Gewinnspannen beim Drogenhandel.
F: Wieso sind die Gewinnspannen dort so groß?
A: Durch die Kriminalisierung der Drogen in USA und EU.
F: Hat die Politik aus der Prohibition vor 100 Jahren gelernt?
A: NEIN.
F: Danke, keine weiteren Fragen. 😞 🤦‍♂️

In the 1900s and 1910s there were a number of Chicago-based record labels that operated a type of premium scheme whereby the phonograph itself was inexpensive but the purchaser was locked-in to purchasing discs made for the player through the use of different sized spindles. Some of these were Standard Disc Records, Harmony Disc Records, United Records, Aretino Records, and Busy Bee Records.

Recentemente mi sta intrigando molto guardando Star Trek: The Next Generation. Avevo già visto pochi episodi della serie originale ma TNG è una di quelle serie che ai tempi riuscivano a darsi da fare con la scrittura.

Solo che non me l'aspettavo MAI in vita mia che Star Trek è così misterioso e strambo allo stesso tempo. Non come esattamente ci fanno vedere la NASA, Elon Musk, tutte ste robe qua.
