Quite apart from any other issues I might have with AI, its pretty clear that the AI revolution is going to lead to a massive upswing in power usage, and as such will be a major problem for climate change, unless by some miracle all the upswing is supplied by renewables.... and even then, if demand from data centres ramps up quicker than supply it will be driving more expensive energy for the rest of us!
Not to mention it's totally false premise that everything can be reduced to an algorithm. Personally all my journalism begins with pen, ink and paper. This (internet) is just my relaxation zone.
In mid-June, a federal judge issued a stinging rebuke to the Trump administration, declaring that its decision to cancel the funding for many grants issued by the National Institutes of Health was illegal, and suggesting that the policy was likely animated by racism. But the detailed reasoning behind his decision wasn't released at the time. The written portion of the decision was finally issued on Wednesday, and it has a number of notable features.
For starters, it's more limited in scope due to a pair of Supreme Court decisions that were issued in the intervening weeks. As a consequence, far fewer grants will see their funding restored. Regardless, the court continues to find that the government's actions were arbitrary and capricious, in part because the government never bothered to define the problems that would get a grant canceled. As a result, officials within the NIH simply canceled lists of grants they received from DOGE without bothering to examine their scientific merit, and then struggled to retroactively describe a policy that justified the actions afterward—a process that led several of them to resign.
The Paris river was once considered biologically dead due to severe pollution, however a $1.6 billion cleanup operation has significantly improved sanitation.

Your thread about traditional costumes and Protestant ethic (mastodon.online/@NatureMC/1148… ) explains a lot about contemporary U.S., since many ultra-bigots migrated there.
🧵 Traditional costumes today divide opinion: some see them as a supposed idyll of the ‘good old days’, others find them old-fashioned and reject them. During summer, we we take a look behind the scenes, scrutinise the history and marvel at the restoration of originals. As always more info in alt texts + thread! @textilearts
“Mythology and folklore surrounding moths and butterflies carries complex and sometimes contradictory symbolism,” textile artist Larysa Bernhardt says. “I was always attracted to their paradoxical nature.”
The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), a controversial US and Israeli-backed aid scheme, has proposed building concentration camps both inside and outside Gaza as part of a plan to displace the strip's population
Dozens of people who help coordinate travel for complex inspections of foreign drug-making factories have been let go, and though some have since been rehired, inspectors said the ongoing strain of policing an industry spread across more than 90 countries has exhausted staff and could compromise the safety of medications used by millions of people.
For years, inspectors have uncovered dirty equipment, contaminated supplies and fraudulent testing records in some overseas factories — serious safety and quality breaches that can sicken or kill consumers. Last month, ProPublica reported that a generic immunosuppression drug for transplant patients could dissolve too quickly when ingested, increasing the risk of kidney failure. The drug was made at an Indian factory with a history of quality violations that was banned from the U.S. market. The company previously told ProPublica it believes the medication is safe.
Beyond staff cuts, the departures of some longtime investigators in recent months have left less experienced people tasked with rooting out dangerous manufacturing practices.

investigating Marcel Duchamp’s ‘Stoppages’ (1913-1964) - a set of related artworks that tell the conceptual narrative of a radical creative process over several years
In 1913, the French artist Marcel Duchamp measured and cut a piece of string into three sections, each one metre long. He took these strings and held them horizontally one metre above a primed…

Habt ihr schon mal bei einer "European Citizens Initiative" mitgemacht? Ich gerade eben, und zwar für die Kampagne House Europe: houseeurope.eu . Geht darum, europäische Gesetze zu ändern, so dass wir weniger neu bauen und mehr renovieren. Total sinnvoll, deshalb: Macht das doch auch! Habe am Wochenende Adrian Nägel gehört (und Tina Unruh von der Hamburger Stiftung Baukultur) mit jeweils flammenden Plädoyers fürs Renovieren, das hat mich überzeugt. #EU #Europe #bau #klima #graueenergie
