And the Framing continues: in the course of the last century, the AMOC *may* have evolved from relatively stable conditions to a point close to a critical transition. The PIK Potsd…

Sorry for the snark, but inductive charging is never [1] going to happen. If there's one constant in all of infrastructure history, it is that the utility of a new infrastructure i…

Oh wait, so when Trump was using the Podesta Emails for making a point, Podesta was a saint. Now with Trump gone, Podesta is an un-sainty "lobbyist" when hired by Huawei. That can …

The only thing stunning about this, is how anyone ever could've believed that cryptocurrencies would not end in the dystopian future of a government knowing every single transactio…

Interesting. There seem to be a lot of native speakers here that have problems with the grammar, while I – and assume many other non-native speakers – don't.

It certainly wasn’t “Germany“ that fined YouTube. Because… a) anti-lockdown is anti Government b) the removals are usually done by outsourcing service providers, often ironically b…

Gee, who would have thought the culture on Twitter is experienced as hostile by some (ie all normal people). Never once in the last years have I opened the app without closing it 1…

I can echo this. I fear a backlash coming for WFH based on data-points like these once politicians can safely backpedal on their social distancing stance. Had to work hard in the p…
