For 223 straight days, Earth's sea surface temperatures have been at all-time record warm levels. That's 7 months and 9 days straight. An unprecedented amount of oceanic warmth never seen before in modern history.

Those who say "but there are no muslim migrants in Ukraine". It is a wrong angle (or even twisting the reality). Let me explain (THREAD) 1) Ukraine has a lot of Muslim indigenous people. Crimean Tatars, Krimchaks are Muslims, they have their fighting units defending Ukraine; /1
Had my Sunday lunch in this amazing Israel-style cafe in Kyiv. In Ukraine, no Jew needs to hide, to have fear, or to ask the police to protect them (often without any result). Nobody can imagine this cafe will be smeared or attacked. Be like Ukraine.

The human body can only take so much heat. A study examines the likelihood of heat waves above the limit of human thermoregulation in different climate futures. The risk of widespread exposure to lethal heat rises sharply at 3 °C of warming. In PNAS: ow.ly/AtMY50PWFI4

A reminder there is no “Verona Mark” who is a BBC correspondent, Iran has no carriers, that’s not a Mirage III, Mirage IIIs can’t land on carriers, and if the original blue check system was still in place this sort of impersonation would never gain traction. – at Paradise, NV

All the more impressive since Israel, and specifically Bibi, never shared such words with Zelensky when Ukraine was invaded
Horrible news from Israel. My condolences go out to everyone who lost relatives or close ones in the terrorist attack. We have faith that order will be restored and terrorists will be defeated. Terror should have no place in the world, because it is always a crime, not just against a specific country or this terror’s victims, but against humanity in general and our entire world. Anyone who resorts to terror commits a crime against the world. Whoever finances terror is committing a crime against the world. The world must stand united and in solidarity so that terror does not attempt to break or subjugate life anywhere and at any moment. Israel's right to self-defense is unquestionable. All details surrounding this terrorist assault must be revealed so that the world knows and holds accountable everyone who supported and helped carry out the attack. All Ukrainian citizens who remain in the risk zone must carefully obey all orders issued by local security services and remain vigilant. Please be cautious. The Ukrainian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and our embassy in Israel are ready to assist in any situation. To support Ukrainians in Israel, we established an operational headquarters. If you require assistance, please contact any of our diplomatic or consular offices in any convenient and accessible manner. Every life is valuable! We condemn all forms of terrorism.

Biologists running PCA: - "statistical maps based on the genotypes in population-genetic samples often resemble geographic maps of the underlying sampling locations." Deep learning folks running LLMs discover the same thing: -"It learnt a world model"
The computational biology people got here in 2010. With PCA. Not even deep learning. Are we to conclude that principal components analysis has an internal world model? pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/2019…

Here's my conversation with Mark Zuckerberg, his 3rd time on the podcast, but this time we talked in the Metaverse as photorealistic avatars. This was one of the most incredible experiences of my life. It really felt like we were talking in-person, but we were miles apart 🤯 It's hard to put into words how awesome this was for someone like me who values the intimacy of in-person conversation. It gave me a glimpse of an exciting future with many new possibilities and fascinating questions about the nature of reality and human connection ❤ Timestamps: 0:00 - Introduction 0:52 - Metaverse 15:27 - Quest 3 30:16 - Nature of reality 34:54 - AI in the Metaverse 51:51 - Large language models 57:49 - Future of humanity

THREAD Let's start a long thread about how Russian book market prepared Russians for a full-scale war against Ukraine, NATO, the West, and promoted stalinism and nazism, and how this was ignored by the West. Keep seat belts fasten, you will see a lot of nasty things here. 1/52

Leider spart Herr Mertens Langzeitfolgen aus. Sein Denken ist kurzsichtig. ▶️Zum Glück kann die Stiko nur Empfehlungen aussprechen & nichts verbieten. ▶️Zum Glück liegt die uneingeschränkte Zulassung für alle Menschen (ab LM 6) vor. ▶️Zum Glück empfiehlt das CDC etwas anderes.

Zwei Wochen Ziltendorf in Oder-Spree. 1.500 Einwohner, bei der Landratswahl 41% für die AfD. Es war trotzdem eine tolle Erfahrung und ich werde viele dort vermissen. Ein paar Gedanken. 👇

We see severe deformations in the eastern flank of the Thwaites Glacier tongue, which buttresses one-third of Thwaites glacier. It may currently be pushed completely over the submarine ridge. We can't confirm any more news at the moment due to cloud cover. worldview.earthdata.nasa.gov…

What Orwell feared were those who would ban books. What Huxley feared was that there would be no reason to ban a book, for there would be no one who wanted to read one. Orwell feared those who would deprive us of information. Huxley feared those who would give us so much that we would be reduced to passivity and egoism. Orwell feared that the truth would be concealed from us. Huxley feared the truth would be drowned in a sea of irrelevance. Orwell feared we would become a captive culture. Huxley feared we would become a trivial culture, preoccupied with some equivalent of the feelies, the orgy porgy, and the centrifugal bumblepuppy. As Huxley remarked in Brave New World Revisited, the civil libertarians and rationalists who are ever on the alert to oppose tyranny "failed to take into account man's almost infinite appetite for distractions." "In 1984", Huxley added, "people are controlled by inflicting pain. In Brave New World, they are controlled by inflicting pleasure." In short, Orwell feared that what we hate will ruin us. Huxley feared that what we love will ruin us. ~Neil Postman Amusing Ourselves to Death (Art: Collage by Joe Webb) via Philo Thoughts
