What Trump Is Really Doing With His Boat Strikes
In lieu of careful analysis of the campaign’s legality, detailed rationales for the boat strikes and explanations of why they couldn’t be done with more traditional methods, we get Mr. Hegseth posting an image of himself with laser eyes and video after video of alleged drug traffickers being killed. The cartoon turtle is just one example in an avalanche of juvenile public messaging about those we kill. I suspect the question the administration cares about is not “is this legal,” “is this a war crime,” “is this murder” or even “is this good for America,” but rather, “isn’t this violence delightful?”

What Scientists Found When a Deep Sea Mining Company Invited Them In
On a cold January morning in the high-altitude region of Spiti in the Indian Himalayas, a team of researchers set out to study the disappearing snow in the mountains. Along the trail, they stopped to talk with yak herders who had spent their lives watching the snow come and go. The herders spoke of ...
Kinda sorta; because it's a fleet average, it means that EVs will be marketed in the states following the California standard, but not the rest of the country.
It's not new, but the spending by the richest has gotten to be a much much larger fraction of the total in recent years
This lets them alter the rules of society so that things aren't just a little tilted in their favor, but are enormously so.
This is California, so likely forever
Because the competitive process is about credibly promising to produce new knowledge, not about direct immediate application. And when you do that, something really useful is created every so often. You cant do the kind of directed study that produces immediate application without the basic knowledge of how things work. So we have had a system where the federal government funds basic knowledge creation and private enterprise does the directed work for profit when it becomes clear that it's plausible.
Mostly not; they were awarded through competitive process. It's remarkably hard to get something frivolous through that.
What does happen a lot is that basic science isn't immediately impactful but has a modest chance of producing something really useful. For example the GLP-1 drugs were developed as a result of a study into gila monster venom. Nobody is going to say "gila monster venom is useful" but the basic research into how gila monsters regulate appetite turned out to be very meaningful.
They don't even need to modify the weapons; just shoot at peoples heads with weapons not meant for that
A huge amount of extra CO2 showed up. We don't have a definitive answer as to where from.
Titles are a problem; they're all that almost everybody sees — click-through rates to articles are around 2.5% of the headline view rates. I try to increase that by using gift links and archived copies of articles; but that has a fairly limited impact on peoples' willingness to click in the first place.
Actually understanding means doing more than reading the headline, and that makes it very hard to get information across.
One which doesn't require professional installation has real potential to cut the cost of solar by making it about who can sell a good-enough panel the most cheaply. That hasn't happened so far in the US, and means that rooftop solar is something like 4x the price it is in other countries.
Yes, but they don't scale to anything like the amount of CO2 people are adding to the atmosphere by burning fossil fuels. In practice, this means having to phase out fossil fuels faster
Realistically you need to get them banned.
Get flock banned at a local level.

More that the structure of the legislation — where many of the benefits weren't immediate — made it easier for Republicans to win elections.
99% sure because few people do that and proxies are detectable
