  • Look at the nasal mist vaccines for your kid. Slightly less protection, but no needle. And you can get them by mail order and administer at home so that you don't need to organize an outing around the vaccine

  • The problem is that it's 90% stories that don't really lend themselves to partisan outcomes. Their fascism comes out only once in a while, when Sulzberger thinks it's important.

  • In 2025, India's carbon dioxide output edged down, breaking a decades-long trend of steady increases. This is also the first time on record that emissions have fallen during normal economic conditions

  • UI design sharply increases the probability of behaving in this way; it takes a real fundamental rethink of the UI in order to change that. For what it's worth, commercial platforms are increasingly pushing people away from providing a link, either by banning links like Instagram, or by having a feed ranking algorithm which discourages their inclusion (X, Facebook, others)

    I don't blame individual choices for something that's largely a result of platform design.

  • How people treat the news is a result of how the UI on reddit, lemmy, and social media is designed. It's not appropriate to blame people who don't have control over that

  • The Man Whom Exxon Tried To Drill | After years of using shareholder votes to pressure oil giants on climate, one activist triggered a corporate backlash that is reshaping the limits of investor power

  • The problem is that a huge chunk of the online audience only ever sees the headline. Click-through rates hover around 2% and of those who vote or comment, only about one in four has clicked the link.

    It's not a crazy concern, but definitely should be expressed more clearly.

    There is a reason I quoted the key paragraphs in the post.

  • The reality of a first-past-the-post system is that it is far easier to co-opt an existing party than to launch a new one. The latter approach usually means handing power to the people you dislike the most

  • Yeah, the US put in place policy to support batteries for electric vehicles, and the policy got yanked by Republicans while the factories were going up. So a lot of them are planning to produce batteries for the stationary storage market now
