Remember when the internet wasn't awful? We can go back to that.
Some friends and I have released the Resonant Computing Manifesto: a call to bring back such a time, to see if we can bring back a world where technology works for us, rather than against us.

The Resonant Computing Manifesto
Technology should bring out the best in humanity, not the worst—a manifesto for resonant computing built on five principles that reject hyper-scale extraction for human flourishing.

Como se proyecta que en el futuro habrá 560.000 satélites en órbita, los investigadores calculan que contaminarían aproximadamente el 39,6% de las imágenes del Hubble y el 96% de las imágenes de los otros tres telescopios espaciales. Aquí se ve bastante claro: www.eldiario.es/sociedad/inv...

A *huge* vaccine victory. I've been writing on this for years; Australia has seen remarkable progress in cervical cancer prevention with the HPV vaccine. I love seeing science triumph like this.
Australia recorded ZERO cases of cervical cancer in women under 25 for the first time since they started tracking the cancer in the 80s.
This is the power of vaccines.
The HPV vaccine is extremely effective at preventing cancer.
Viruses can be oncogenic. Get your vaccines and protect yourself!

The little bit of spending DOGE cut has already killed hundreds of thousands and will eventually lead to millions of deaths.
