@SkyNews @SpaceKate SpaceX still haven't got a person further than LEO, meanwhile NASA got 12 men to walk on the Moon and return home safely.

'Why do we even need NASA? SpaceX would have got to the moon already'
Space journalist @SpaceKate often hears this question, but she explains how Elon Musk's SpaceX is very much involved in the Artemis missions, but problems may lie ahead.

@UltraDane For those wondering why there's a spicy pinwheel drawn on the wall of the blue glass furnace, it's a manji and means luck and features in Buddhism. The Austrian painter with the square moustache stole it from a book of symbols

@sciencegirl I live peacefully together, I didn’t have a fight in decades ✌🏻

An actual human would have stopped 5 seconds earlier instead of plowing full speed ahead into thick smoke.

🚨 Watch the moment a Tesla pulled off a split-second move, through smoke, to avoid a crash that seemed nearly impossible.

@DangerousDaveSt @r0ck3t23 Should I believe an random dude called dangerous Dave or a guy that build the internet back when people still used type writers. 🧐

@r0ck3t23 “No intermediate abstraction” says Marc, when models rely on CoT architectures and heavy tool use (as if totally oblivious of it with the “2 + 2” comment). What the fuck is in that egg-shaped head? Total dumbass it’s unbelievable.

Marc Andreessen just collapsed a fifty-year assumption in one sentence.
Andreessen: “I’m not sure there will even be a salient concept of a programming language in the way that we understand it today.”
Not declining.
Not evolving.
Gone.
For fifty years, humans learned machine syntax to command computers.
We bent our cognition to fit their grammar.
We built entire careers on how fluently we could speak a language machines wrote the rules for.
That was always backwards.
The correction is arriving faster than the industry will say out loud.
Andreessen didn’t stop there.
Andreessen: “You may not need user interfaces.”
Then came the only question left.
Who uses software in the future?
Other bots.
Follow that to its end.
The screen. The dashboard. The browser. The app. The dropdown menu.
Every interface ever built assumed a human on the other end who needed the world made legible.
If the user is a machine, none of that is necessary.
The entire visual layer of computing was built for biological eyes.
When the primary users are no longer biological, that layer doesn’t get updated.
It gets stripped.
Andreessen drew the comparison himself.
Not long ago, 99% of humanity was behind a plow.
The world spent generations asking what people would do when farming disappeared.
The answer was everything worth doing.
We are at that exact moment again.
Except this time, the plow is a keyboard.
Andreessen: “I’m going to tell the thing what I need, and it’s going to do it in whatever way is most optimal.”
That sentence deletes the entire skills economy built around execution.
Not judgment.
Not taste.
Not the ability to want the right things.
Just execution.
That part is over.
Which means the only thing left that matters is the quality of what you want.
Most people have spent their entire careers getting better at building.
Almost no one has spent that time getting better at knowing what to build.
That gap is about to become the only gap that matters.
The friction of execution is gone.
What you can imagine is what you can build.
The question is whether you’ve ever trained that muscle.
Most people haven’t.

@Jeroen87Jeroen @Strijder124 Het effect is dat ze onze economie afremmen.
Nederlands

@Strijder124 In China ca 1200 kolencentrales (>1200 GW) en eind 2025 nog 291 GW vergund of in aanbouwen. Wat wij hier doen voor het milieu heeft exact 0 effect op mondiaal nivo.
Nederlands

Rob Jetten: "De inzet van kolen is vanaf 2030 bij wet verboden."
Alweer een strategisch onverstandige beslissing. Kolen is één van de weinige grondstoffen waarover Europa in ruime mate beschikt.
Vanuit het oogpunt van energiezekerheid is het cruciaal om kolen te blijven gebruiken – zeker nu geopolitieke spanningen, gastekorten en stijgende importprijzen aantonen hoe kwetsbaar we zijn zonder deze lokale back-up.
Nederlands

@Rekt_Archi @Strijder124 100% mee eens, gewoon zelf regelen, zonnepanelen + batterij en een airco. Een houtkachel voor als de stroom uitvalt!
Nederlands

@Strijder124 Nou jongens. Was leuk hier. Ik ga koper draad halen en zelf batterijen bouwen. Ik vind het wel leuk geweest zo.

Maak kennis met Maarten van Rossum. Heeft ooit op een bazaar in Istanboel korting gekregen bij het kopen van een Perzisch tapijtje en mag zich sindsdien top-onderhandelaar noemen.
Maarten leeft in een parallelle wereld en kruipt een paar keer per week door een rift naar onze werkelijkheid om totale onzin te verkopen. Dat doet hij bij het PRO-linkse programmaatje #EVA.
Dit keer overtreft hij zichzelf en lanceert een plan om Trump een veeg uit de pan te geven en hem uit de NAVO te gooien. Dat zal hem leren.
Enfin, ik wens u veel plezier bij deze 4 minuten totale ridicule onzin. Kijk vooral rond de 3 minuten naar Jort Kelder. Zelfs hij neemt deze charlatan niet serieus.

@Rainmaker1973 The problem is not CO2 anymore, it is N2, just ask any Dutch politician, they stopped the building of houses for it.

Iceland switched on the biggest air-cleaning machine on Earth.
In May 2024, a facility called Mammoth began operations in Iceland. Built by Swiss company Climeworks, it’s designed to remove up to 36,000 tons of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere each year – 10 times more than its predecessor, Orca.
The process is called direct air capture (DAC). Giant fans pull in ambient air, and specialized filters trap CO₂ molecules. That CO₂ is then mixed with water and pumped deep underground into basalt rock formations, where it slowly turns into solid stone through a natural mineralization process.
And it’s all powered by Iceland’s geothermal energy, meaning the entire system runs on clean, renewable power.
The captured CO₂ is stored by Climeworks’ partner, Carbfix, which developed the underground injection method. Over time, the gas reacts with the rock and becomes part of the Earth – locked away for good.
