Dažādas atskārsmes un mirkļa vājības... parasti nesavācas vairāk par 3 tvītiem dienā. Atvainojos par gramatiskajām kļūdām - parasti rakstu bez brillēm!


This is absolutely infuriating and completely idiotic. An estimated 95,000 scientists and researchers have left federal agencies since Trump returned to the White House. These are the people tracking hurricanes, studying pediatric cancer, and modeling the climate tipping points that determine whether we can still prevent catastrophe. We lost them because this administration defunded their work, shuttered their offices, and made clear that finding out the truth is no longer a government priority. NASA’s own administrator just said studying climate change isn’t part of NASA’s mission. The agency that first warned Congress about global warming in 1988 now treats that work as a distraction. Meanwhile, China and Europe are recruiting our scientists, funding their labs, and making long-term bets on the industries of the future while we gut the research infrastructure that took generations to build. We are surrendering global scientific leadership voluntarily, deliberately, and one resignation letter at a time. nytimes.com/2026/03/25/cli…



Darba ražīgums jeb produktivitāte ES-27 valstīs 🇪🇺 / Igaunijā 🇪🇪 / Lietuvā 🇱🇹 / Latvijā 🇱🇻 (no Eurostat datiem ceturkšņu dalījumā)

Festivāls "Positivus" šogad norisināsies tikai vienu dienu, un galvenais mākslinieks būs elektroniskās mūzikas mākslinieks Kelvins Heriss (Calvin Harris), kura koncerts Mežaparka lielajā estrādē tika izziņots jau iepriekš. "Nolēmām radīt īpašu, koncentrētu un jaudīgu pieredzi – vienas dienas festivālu ar Calvin Harris kā galveno mākslinieku," informē festivāla rīkotāji. Festivālā piedalīsies arī vairāki iesildošie mākslinieki, norāda rīkotāji.


For the first time this semester, I ordered notebooks for my students. Instead of submitting typed papers online, they’ll be journaling regularly, by hand, to analyze what they’re reading. In the age of AI, many of us have gone back to old-school blue book exams. But I’ve also found it exciting to try something different. I told students that these journals are not optional: they need to keep them with them, and I’ll collect them regularly to give feedback on their writing and thinking. I also emphasized that I’m not looking for perfectly polished pieces of writing, but for ideas in motion, questions, and close engagement with the texts. We’ll see how it goes, but so far, I’m hopeful.
