The richest man on Earth dismantled the organization that feeds the poorest children on earth. The definition of evil is being a trillionaire in a world where millions of children are starving.

Call me a hater but I think living in a world where both trillionaires and global poverty coexist is a sign humanity has failed as a species
Elon Musk has become the first trillionaire in history.

I saw a post on Reddit that said that “The underlying purpose of AI is to allow wealth to access skill while removing from the skilled the ability to access wealth.” And I don’t think I’ve ever seen AI described so incisively.

This is very very bad.
Mysterious ‘cold blob’ in the Atlantic suggests the AMOC is weakening A patch of ocean south-east of Greenland is the only place on Earth that is cooling, and it could be a sign that the warm water “conveyor belt” in the Atlantic is slowing down newscientist.com/article/252… docs.google.com/document/d/1…

Para quienes informan sobre el tema Ébola: ojo, no es una “nueva cepa” o “variante” de #Ébola. El virus Bundibugyo (Bundibugyo ebolavirus, BDBV) es una especie distinta dentro del género Ebolavirus, en la familia Filoviridae. Dentro del género Ebolavirus existen varias especies, entre ellas: • Zaire ebolavirus • Sudan ebolavirus • Taï Forest ebolavirus • Bundibugyo ebolavirus (#BDBV) • Reston ebolavirus • Bombali ebolavirus Por tanto, lo correcto es referirse a: “brote por virus Bundibugyo” o “Ébola por Bundibugyo ebolavirus”, y no como variante o cepa de Ébola.

Medicine teaches you empathy, then systematically destroys it. By year 10, you're either a saint or a cynic. Most of us are just tired.

Miren déjense de mitos. Más allá del tamaño, llega un punto en que pasar de 18 mil a 44 mil encuestados apenas mejora el margen de error (~0.2%). Lo decisivo no es cuántos entrevistas, sino cómo construyes la muestra y si realmente representas a un país tan disímil.
