"Venture is dead." I've heard this same prediction in every tech wave Web 1.0, crypto, and now AI. The argument is AI's capital efficiency makes VC obsolete.
I believe the opposite. AI won't just save venture; it will restore value to the entire startup economy.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Fantastic piece by @whittledaway.bsky.social on rewilding.
Nothing else represents such sheer, distilled hope at a time when that can be in very short supply, and it's our primary weapon against nature loss in highly depleted places like Ireland.

Despite the backlash in recent years (in Ireland anyway!), rewilding is now well established in academic and practical responses to the biodiversity crisis.

New paper! Wildlife crossings are a win-win, protecting motorists and increasing wildlife resilience to climate change by reducing mortality and reconnecting habitats.
We review how crossings support adaptation and offer siting/design considerations to maximize benefits.
