🔥🪵 Biomass isn’t as "renewable" as advertised, and it isn’t clean. Burning virgin wood (UK's #1 source) can be more polluting than coal.
We need to prioritise use of would-be-waste biomass for hard to decarbonise sectors and phase out forest biomass for power.

I expect that consumer-facing AI programs will continue to improve and they may become much more useful tools for everyday life in the future.
But I think it was a disastrous mistake that today’s models were taught to be convincing before they were taught to be right.

Boycott Uber. Take public transit, bike or walk. If you must use rideshare hail a cab or call a Lyft.
Do not give Uber your money.

Do you like birds? My new book THE BIRDING DICTIONARY is out today wherever you buy books! This little book is deeply silly and full of love, and I hope you'll laugh and maybe enjoy an obscure fact or two.

Occasional reminder that there’s no, “it’s too late, its over” for anthropogenic climate change. Every molecule of CO2 that doesn’t go into the atmosphere makes a difference. Preventing 0.1 degree of warming makes a difference. Every bit of climate resilience we build together makes a difference.

Trump has been able to channel the intensifying anger of the working class away from the real causes of working-class distress — away from the big corporations, wealthy individuals, and denizens of Wall Street whose money has rigged the game against average working people.

My friend, a recruiter veteran of 15 years, told me to give up looking for a job. Despite everyone saying the economy is good, I've literally been told I'm not going to get a job unless it's through a pre-existing human connection right now, that applying is useless. Gonna go die now

For comfort I am watching Tudor Monastery Farm, a reality show where academic historians in silly costumes try to live on a period-accurate early modern farm. The drama in this episode is that the cows, Gwynn and Graceful, hate plowing.
