Aerobic capacity is one of the best predictors of healthy aging Why? Eventually, everyday activities become taxing The bigger the gap we have between our capacity & activities, the better You influence the slope of your decline Lots of easy Occasionally kind of hard Mix it up

I think Balenciaga pope might be the first real mass-level AI misinformation case. Kinda cool to watch tbh.

On what would have been the 50th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, we’re reminded that progress can move backward. And that means we’ve got to recommit to doing our part to protect and expand reproductive rights for families today — and for generations to come.

Decarbonizing our power system demands that the grid of the future be both #flexible and #customercentric. EnergyHub's @fraderT and @SiemensInfra discuss in the latest episode of the <de>coding the future of energy podcast: bit.ly/3UUepxk

Great to sit down with @Energy4Chris and @johanoberg1 of Insider's Guide to Energy to talk about how EnergyHub is helping utilities and their customers accelerate toward a decarbonized future.

EV charging stations in Chicago in…. wait for it: 1916 👀 we've wasted 100 years burning fossil fuels 😖 @elonmusk (found on reddit user jjlew80)

In the months ahead, more cases won’t correlate to more deaths in the same way as earlier in the pandemic. This graph from the UK shows why. Age matters—a lot. 8/ twitter.com/abuttenheim/st…

This is such a great answer from Daniel Kahneman theguardian.com/books/2021/may…

@James_McGinniss @EltaKo7 The only difference is that it's (presumably) a consistent, flat load with high availability, so the capacity factor is better. But it's still demand response. You are right: definitely not a battery. Negative load. They are different.

@EltaKo7 Not sure why speed of response or volume matter. It’s great it can do this, but how is that any more a battery than, say, curtailed HVAC load?

Ive seen Bitcoin being called a battery frequently on my feed again, so... Btc is electric demand that can be turned off when needed and provide liquidity to stranded generation assets Not in any way shape or form is this a battery, even though I get what you’re saying (1/2)

For perspective on how important immigration law is to US innovation economy: only 29% of US PhD grads in elec engineering are citizens / perm residents. So many potential deeptech entrepreneurs can't enter the game due to poor policy. Admire @doug_rand's relentless work on this.

This morning a neighbor reported that the Second Avenue bike lane & “pork chop,” located at one of NYC’s most dangerous corridors (near the Queensboro Bridge) was completely obstructed with snow. @PatrickForNYC and I grabbed our shovels & did the work *our City* should be doing.

Lots of questions about the Covid-19 vaccines -- here are some of the more common ones, with my answers. Directed at clinicians, but probably something here for all. Any that we missed? @NEJM nejm.org/covid-vaccine/…

@jjacobs22 @duncancampbell The problem is you're competing against some of the most profitable companies in history, in a market where talent is scarce. It's a real market but one with enormous distortion from a few giant employers.

@duncancampbell Thanks, I’ve heard this one too. Hopefully this will alleviate over time as more, better funded, and stronger climate cos continue to emerge. If you have any ideas for how to accelerate, I’m all ears!

For those that are trying to reorient your careers around working in climate, what are the biggest things holding you back? What would be the most impactful things people could build to make this transition easier for you?
