This is great news to reduce the need for air travel, though I hope the trains are competitively priced so that it makes it as cheap (if not cheaper) than air travel

Incredible reporting from William Langewiesche on an early 80s war game that spiraled out of control, highlighting the dangers of low yield tactical nukes in terms of triggering the "death spiral" of escalation. We must not wait to build communication & trust.

The “Distracted Boyfriend” meme. The boyfriend is labeled “Observer”. The other girl is labeled “observed quantum state”. The girlfriend has been copied several times to fill every other part of the image, and is labeled “every other possible quantum state”.

What a journey!

10 years ago almost 40% of UK electricity was from coal.

Today the UK's last remaining coal-fired power station is Ratcliffe-on-Soar Power Station in Nottinghamshire, England, which is scheduled to close on September 30, 2024.

What a clever idea.
Screenshot of a social post by '@AmesCG' on the social platform 'X' that says: 'Super clever way to “market” public services, like the library, whose tangible (and intangible) benefits often go unnoticed.' Attached is a photo of a library receipt that says how much the library has saved by using the service.
