Privilegiados, segundo o Governo:
Pais que ganham mais de 1 120€/mês cada.

Querem que o filho estude para ter uma vida melhor? Pois, seus malandros privilegiados… para isso têm de pagar.

Mas depois a direita diz que, para melhorar as condições de vida e subir salários, precisamos de gente formada
Reduzir propinas? Seria "regressivo" porque "colocaríamos sociedade a pagar ensino dos que tiveram privilégio de o frequentar"
O Governo vai descongelar, a partir do ano letivo 2026/2027, o valor das propinas das licenciaturas, que não sofre alterações desde 2020. Passará de 697 para 710 euros. Na SIC Notícias, o ministro da ...

Custo de vida a disparar, habitação incomportável para os jovens e contribuições que não chegam para reformas dignas no futuro. Faz sentido facilitar despedimentos e outsourcing? Estamos a dar cabo da sustentabilidade da vida familiar, e a forçar os jovens a emigrar.

EU CRMA strategic projects label is a step in the right direction:
A) None are yet secure and need all the help they can get
B) Awards are great, but European independence needs action yesterday
C) Portugal is almost building a value chain, but gaps (aka, opportunities) exist for the taking

Severance was already becoming a candidate for the the best tv show ever but Jessica Lee Gagne just catupulted it and herself into cinematography legend.

Episode 7 is absolutely stunning. If you aren’t watching #Severance you are missing out on an amazing piece of art

Car-sharing can help the transition to sustainable mobility, but Cooltra is doing the concept a disservice. Instead of trying to be Uber, but treating customers like drivers, they should focus on not having the worst customer service ever. I’d strongly recommend finding a better alternative

Great to see Portugal taking a decisive step in the global critical raw materials race. As these strategic resources emerge as the cornerstone of tomorrow's industrial power, Portugal needs to position itself to maximize value in this crucial frontier.

Regarding lithium, Portuguese Minister of Economy Pedro Reis said: "We believe in the electric vehicle industry and that it is very important to leave maximum added value in Portugal. Refineries are part of this value chain”

Galp fora da corrida ao lítio: A obrigação do Governo é procurar outros promotores, diz Pedro Reis
'Se conseguirmos ter uma refinaria de lítio em Portugal ou várias, tudo faremos para isso', disse o ministro da Economia, lembrando que 'existe sempre o princípio de autonomia dos grupos privados'.

Germany’s €257M potential guarantees for Savannah’s Portuguese lithium project show its commitment to Europe’s battery supply chain. Developing domestic production and processing is key to enhancing EU independence and resources for the clean energy transition.

In the more realistic* scenarios of +3/4 degrees, Portugal’s main tourist region will lose up to 5% of stays.
Thats almost 2B€ per year and 24,000 jobs lost.

Fantastic analysis - but applies to AI even more widely than catastrophic risks, and similar solutions are warranted for many of the impacts.
AI is a "tragedy of the commons." We’ve got solutions for that.
"Arms race" is the wrong mental model for AI. Here’s a better one.

The 'What's Science' feed is the best thing from the Twitter/Twitter clones/Reddit debacle.

Reading actual science nuggets on a variety of subjects twice a day is truly amazing.

I sincerely hope it continues to grow and remains immune to the potential negative impact of social media algorithms.

The thing about Elon is that he’s going down a completely familiar radicalization pathway for dumb men who spend too much time online but because he’s got seventy quintillion dollars people assume it must be something else
We have to start entertaining the notion that these people are just dumb

Anti-vax is pro-preventable death and disability.

The absolute worst people in the world are getting all lathered up about it and that’s grim AF. People will die. Kids will get terrible and completely preventable diseases that we thought were a thing of the past. There will be a body count. 🧪
