Have I mentioned my book!? It tries to inspire action by arguing we already sort-of know what needs to be done about the world's biggest problems – and have a pretty good idea of what a solution looks like. Also, economics is not what you think! www.amazon.com/How-Economic...
Fair enough ⤵️
God help me, I'm gonna actually defend "AI" a bit here: this stuff is like tracer dye revealing how corrupt and decrepit so many of our institutional processes already were long before this garbage came along.
"Runctitiononal features"? "Medical fymblal"? "1 Tol Line storee"? This gets worse the longer you look at it. But it's got to be good, because it was published in Nature Scientific Reports last week: www.nature.com/articles/s41... h/t @asa.tsbalans.se

En röst från de ofrivilligt barnlösa – till Sveriges beslutsfattare
Det har inte undgått någon att födelsetalen i Sverige har sjunkit till rekordlåga nivåer. I media läggs fokus på lågkonjunktur, osäkerhet inför framtiden och personer som aktivt väljer att inte skaffa...

I'm sure journalists feel bound by traditional norms of polite, professional behavior. Those norms are terrific! But they're not necessarily binding when you're dealing with somebody who violates them, e.g., by lying to your face.
Glad to see a journalist actually pushing back against politicians – and being vindicated too.
Good morning to Brazilian reporter Manuela Borges, who’s been waiting eleven years for this petty moment. ❤️ 🇧🇷

Prospective college student submitted a forged transcript with her application but could not be convicted of fraud because her forgery skills were pathetic: www.dagensjuridik.se/nyheter/kvin...
Kvinna förfalskade betyg för dåligt för att kunna dömas
Betyget hade fel betygsskala för året det var utfärdat. Gymnasieskolan fanns inte heller det året. Trots att kvinnan skickade in ett förfalskat betyg för att söka högskolestudier frias hon nu från brukande av urkund.
