Check out my latest for @TheBTI “Fusion runs hot and cold” Cold fusion, more appropriately termed low-energy nuclear reactions #LENR, has wrongly been excoriated from mainstream scientific discourse & investigation for over 3 decades. 1/8 thebreakthrough.org/issues/energy/…

Multiple children being killed everyday in Lebanon and nobody in the West gives a damn. Arab and Muslim lives are cheap.

@biancoresearch While the pipeline can ramp up, Yanbu export capacity is not sufficient to ship 7M bpd so it’s actually much worse.

3/5 This represents a sudden removal of roughly 20% of the world’s crude oil supply. While Saudi Arabia’s East-West pipeline to Yanbu is expected to ramp up from 2M bpd to its max capacity of 7M bpd soon, it cannot replace the ~21M bpd that typically flow through the Strait.

1/5 Where Is the Demand Destruction? tl:dr - Asia because they are reliant on Middle Eastern Crude oil, and it is now over $150/barrel. This is keeping (for now) the American and European grades "only" ~$100. (% gain since the war)

And in my view a robust & reliable grid powering economic growth is a core national imperative. Efficiency at the margin matters and I know we are all obsessed with this bc of cost concerns rn, but a grid that stays tight enough to force volatility doesn’t seem socially optimal.

As I wrote a few years ago, this is the problem with “validating” climate anxiety. In addition to affirming mistaken empirics about climate change (no, the world is not becoming uninhabitable), doing so treats anxiety as personally and politically productive. It is neither!
Matthew Yglesias@mattyglesias

In a strange way, the politics of despair is downstream of UNDERRATING how many problems there are in the world and convincing yourself that only the most-discussed, least-tractable issues are worth caring about. slowboring.com/p/worry-less-d…

I would love to find out when people decided “self determination” means everyone gets their own state. There are so many ethnic groups that don’t have their own state. Not to mention this principle actually relies on ethnonationalism
Michael A. Cohen (NOT TRUMP’S FORMER FIXER)@speechboy71

It's pretty remarkable to hear Mamdani say he believes in the principle of self-determination for the Irish people ... when he has consistently rejected the same principle for Jews. If the Irish have a right to self-determination, why shouldn't Jews?

Explicit antisemitic attitudes are now much more common among young voters - 18 year old registered voters are now ~5x more likely to say that they have an unfavorable view of the Jewish people than 65 year olds.

Synagogues are making themselves political spaces with their material support for Israel and Zionism. We must push our Jewish institutions to better reflect the values of the growing Jewish community opposed to Israel’s actions

We're in such a perverse moment of history where a few Jews have found enough race & class privilege, while remaining sufficiently insulated from real antisemitism, that they view crass stereotypes as a badge of honor worth reclaiming, albeit sarcastically as a literal descriptor
Chris Menahan 🇺🇸@infolibnews

At ADL's 2026 Never is Now conference, Jewish Zionist influencer Amanda Hirsch complains to Erin Lichy and Jackie Goldschneider that pro-Palestine activists are "the cool kids" and "we're on the uncool side." "Behind closed doors, like, so many Jews, right, we run Hollywood and we run the world, right? But like ... what we see on these red carpets, what we see that they post, is always not aligned with the Jews," Hirsch laments.

Many conservatives are remembering how Paul Ehrlich was wrong about all his enviro-pessimism and supposed constraints on growth, but all those views are the same concerns that fuel the anti-immigrant movement. Zero sum. Fixed pie. Misanthropy. People as "takers," not makers.
Iain Murray@ismurray

Let us not forget that for years Paul Ehrlich was an adviser to the anti-immigrant group FAIR, and is therefore partly responsible for the current anti-immigrant hysteria. This also may be the first time I have ever cited SPLC... splcenter.org/resources/extr…

Im posting this a third time, because the first two were ghosted I cannot explain how good this talk is. You will want to pause it to read the text, because he is just riffing on top of that as I would often do myself. It will probably information-overload some but its worth two viewings. Most "phanbois of physics" will not be aware of the nuances he shares within the talk. (Almost nobody is)

Great talk from @JonahMessinger on anomalies and ambiguities in scientific discovery as a case study of cold fusion work at MIT. youtu.be/o43x5DC2DBE?fe…

@MinuteofZombie Seems to me @paulg is one of the only ultra successful SV VCs with a public platform who has maintained a grounded sense of self.

As the deserved anti-plaudits for Ehrlich keep rolling in, a reminder that @NaomiOreskes, celebrated progenitor of the Merchants-of-Doubt school of climate activism, wrote this in [checks notes] 2023.

Climate scientist @MichaelEMann called Paul Ehrlich’s 2023 memoir a “wide-ranging, wondrous, and pleasantly amusing account of his amazing life—as a scientist, thinker, communicator, influencer, and champion for a sustainable world.”
