Ultimately, the Earth could still experience RCP8.5-like warming this century even though RCP8.5-like emissions are virtually impossible. It's not likely, but it's within realm of possibility. That's alarming, and it means we absolutely need to understand potential consequences.

Everybody seems to remember the 'don't copy that floppy' warnings, but the less-popular 'don't whisk that disk' campaign has fallen into obscurity. 💾 #FloppyDay

McKinsey’s clients are pushing back against the billable hours model given its clear AI makes that a farce.

Economists have a habit of speaking about 'inflation adjustment' as if it means something unambiguous. [Thread]

DN borde följa upp den här viktiga texten om katastrofen i Etiopien och de stoppade pengarna till Islamic Relief med en kritisk genomgång av hur svenska myndigheter bjudit in lobbyister och betalda desinformatörer från UAE för att angripa svenska muslimska organisationer.

Ca 9% av högerns väljare "skräms" av SD i regeringen enligt samma undersökning, men hör och häpna: de har inte bytt block trots att SD _kommer_ att sitta i regeringen om Tidö vinner. Det säger något om värdet av undersökningen som public service har specialbeställt.

TIL, the SD card specification allows cards to report they support a maximum current consumption of… 65 amps

It seems like every person born before 1980 has a baby photo of them being bathed in a kitchen sink and I have a theory that most of it stopped when people got dishwashers and realized it was a much more convenient way to clean their children.

For the first time, a Baltic Air Policing fighter jet has shot down a Ukrainian drone over Estonia. Kyiv has reportedly apologized for the incident, blaming it on Russian electronic interference.
