The Ukrainian military—the toughest, most experienced, most adaptable, most successful on the modern battlefield—is beardy old men, women, artists, gamers who can’t deadlift sh*t but can fly a drone into a Russian helicopter rotor

It's odd that Republicans can do the mental gymnastics to link Tylenol to autism, but not link gun deaths to guns.

Dieser Tage ging ein Video aus einer meiner Vorlesungen ziemlich rund. Es hat jetzt eine Viertelmillion Aufrufe. Dazu kam der übliche Schimpf. Auch, dass sowas aus Unis zu entfernen sei. Ich nehme das zum Anlass, nochmal diesen Text zu posten. Es geht um Klimabildung. Und um meine Wahrnehmung davon.
Weniger Klimawandel, mehr Klausurwissen?
Eine Sondervorlesung zur Physikalischen Chemie des Klimawandels änderte für mich vor einigen Jahren vieles. Das Thema lässt mir seither keine Ruhe; auch in meinen Vorlesungen. Doch aus dem anfängliche...

Das ist mein Post Nr. 1000. Ich habe überlegt, wofür ich ihn nutzen soll. Für eine wichtige Botschaft? Für etwas, das mir ganz besonders am Herzen liegt? Nein. Es wird einfach ein Dank! Für viel Support. Und für Wegabschnitte in guter Gesellschaft. Auch wenn es vielleicht am Ende gar kein Ziel gibt.

Great new chart from @ember-energy.org.
So far this year low-carbon power has grown faster than electricity demand, leading to a drop in generation from fossil fuels.
Let's hope it continues.

One of those (actually very unsure but might happen) longterm trend predictions I have is that there will be increasing demand for communities, spaces, services that put children and adults into techfree environments.
Basically the ability to be without tech will become increasingly commoditized.

Jeff Bezos appears to be wearing the wrong waistcoat for his wedding. This is a dinner suit (aka a tuxedo) and thus requires a dress waistcoat, which is cut lower on the body. He's wearing a business vest, which is designed for business suits. Needs a formal waistcoat like the one on the right.
