quite a sendoff for the Snowbirds’ last flight of the Tutor at Mathers Field in Sacramento. (more video later when battery and network are not zero)

What a weird world we live in - Ukraine hits a data centre deep in Russia - Irish twitter users see racist posts about IPAS centres in Offaly fall off a cliff

Cloudfare: Russian troll activity on X drops to 49%, after Ukraine strikes Yandex Russian data center. 🤖 🫤 Could this disrupt the midterms for the GOP?

⚠️ Confirmed: Metrics show a second collapse in the networks of Russian tech giant Yandex after a new Ukrainian drone attack on data centers in Vladimir this morning. The campaign comes not long after Russia's threat to give Ukraine a "digital detox."

if Elon is spending millions of dollars of his own money to push this message with paid media, what do you think he does to the black box algorithm on his platform that chooses which posts you see and which of your posts are shown to others?

I'm taking my "Norway's wealth tax didn't reduce tax revenue" victory lap.

Saying the war "never would have happened" if Donald Trump was president is not only a lie, it's possible that by signaling that the US was weak on Ukraine--by demonstrating that a president could illicitly halt aid, and that our government wouldn't actually hold him accountable--he helped cause it.

I realize that asking people to remember 2019 is impossible, since it was a million years ago, but you may recall Donald Trump's first impeachment, which happened because he withheld $400 million in aid to Ukraine because he asked Zelenskyy to investigate Biden (among other things).

I’ve never seen someone embody this more

Just one of the dozens of streets she doesn’t believe exists in the 1.75 mile area she mentions

29. As a consequence of trade barriers, US solar module buyers are now paying more than 38 US cents per Watt, for generally worse products than free trade markets are getting for 12 US cents per Watt.

12. Sometimes the story is the dog that doesn’t bark in the nighttime. European grids would once have struggled in a 2026-level heatwave, but they had only a few problems and high evening prices. CAISO and Ercot, which also have lots of batteries, had good reliability years despite record loads.

10. We oughtta be building more wind, especially in seasonal climates like Europe. Solar will get built anyway, it’s cheap, but wind blows at night and in the winter. We’re going to need something to charge the batteries in winter, especially with rising heatpump use.

7. Batteries are going to grow like crazy for the next five years or so and BNEF’s forecasting team are being cowards about it. Batteries are still expensive compared with no batteries, but they are easy and quick to build, and can sometimes replace hard-to-organise investments like transmission.
