Holy shit.
This is 3I/ATLAS—the interstellar comet recently discovered passing through the Solar System.
You're looking at something that didn't start out here.
It came from another star.
And, at about 7 billion years old, it was already ancient when our Sun was born.

This is the second largest May-May increase in this dataset (3.6 ppm higher than 2024). This is not good... 🫣

Nearly half of British youth would rather be young in a world with no internet. It’s a damning indictment of what social media has become.
As its harms continue to grow, governments need to act — but they must take the right measures instead of reaching for easy fixes.

The Pioneer 11 (1979)/Voyager 1 (1980)/Voyager 2 (1981) sequence at Saturn covered a ring plane crossing. In '79, the sun lit the south side, leaving the rings them dark. In '80, the sun had just crossed the ring plane, lighting the rings at a low angle. By '81, the north side was in full sunlight.

Trump públicamente dice que no cree en el calentamiento global. Pero su interés por Canadá y Groelandia estoy seguro tiene que ver con que esos territorios se harán más habitables y accesibles para la explotación agrícola y minera.
Trump: "To be honest with you, Canada only works as a state. We don't need anything they have. As a state it would be one of the great states. This would be the most incredible country visually. If you look at a map, they drew an artificial line right through it."

The latest CO2 record from the Mauna Loa Observatory. (Thank you, NOAA!) Regular measurements, same method, since 1958. Incontrovertible. I think it's the most important geophysical record ever produced. Do you agree?

As the United States launches an imperialist trade war against Canada and Mexico, it’s time for countries to come together to form an alliance against the US — and that includes rapidly curtailing their dependence on Silicon Valley.

The biggest reason why I dislike the idea of respectability in dress is because it conflates the *appearance* of virtue with *actual* virtue. Wearing a suit doesn't make you respectful, intelligent, or capable, just as wearing a leather jacket doesn't make you rugged.

If you have zero education, but learn how to ask AI models the right questions , in many jobs you will be able to outperform someone with an advanced degree, but who is unwilling to use Large Language Models.
