Dined exclusively on fermented grapes and existential dread.
@vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu The planned obsolescence and right to repair act: can this be applied to other categories as well, such as washing machines? Unfortunately brands like Bosch and Siemens are scamming their customers: youtu.be/138S0rSbZ10?...

@vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu Happy to see free trade discussions with UAE are on-going. A show of strength and unity is exactly what we need in the midst of US tarriffs debacle.
👏 I hope EU also will push creating a better entrepreneurial climate, especially for tech.

I received a heartbreaking email today: A paper in a special issue I’m editing is being retracted because one of its authors is afraid of losing their job and their legal status in the U.S. if they publish a scientific study on evolution. Yes, on evolution, nature's engine of diversity.

One of my companies informed me they cancelled a $2m conference in Florida. Why ?
They didn’t feel they could pass on the incremental cost of tariffs. So they are cutting expenses.
That’s a city that lost a ton of tourism revenue.
The cost of tariffs isn’t just the cost of the tariff

@bsky.app bit of a strange feature request, but I’d like to be able to make my account private. This would only approved followers to see my media, and my own new posts would follow the same rule.

@flashes.blue the reason why I’m not going to use Flashes just yet is that all posts are public. With Instagram I only expose my content to friends. Perhaps Flashes could support such a structure in the future?

@flashesapp.bsky.social Exciting news. Is this also based on an open protocol similar to Bluesky (or, is the protocol the same as Bluesky but with a different front-end)?
