The warmest 12-months in millennia for the Earth as a whole is right now. For the Arctic though, the warmest 12-months was in 2016, with the post-2019 years notably less hot.

I explore the "where" and "why" in the latest Alaska and Arctic Climate newsletter.

I don’t think any of us really understand how quickly collapse can happen:

> About 85% of the country expected to see highs of at least 40°C
> Almost 40% of the country’s dams below 20%
> 40% are between 20 and 50%.
> Mexico City (Population 22.51 million) forced to reduce water supply as reservoirs that feed city dry up.
> Stores running out of mineral water.

I’ve been in this business, writing software professionally, since I started my first software business at 16 in high school an an Apple ][. That’s 45 fucking years. It would never occur to me to steal other people’s code, let alone their likenesses, voices, or art.

Just eject these thieving “AI” companies into the sun. These people, and the VCs that fund them, are a cancer on the software industry.

I heard Scott Galloway on his TED Talk say high housing costs were due to too many "permits":

"'I own 15,000 houses': Robert Kiyosaki says there's 'nothing wrong' with buying a house — except he uses debt to buy it and 'pay no taxes'"

Also, note that this article is a "how to" article that admires this behavior.

CNN reporters identified an 18yo high school student from Beverly Hills who beat UCLA students with a stick, who were encamped on their own university to protest the in .

CNN approached his parents, "who expressed support for him & revealed that he will soon leave for Israel to join the Israeli occupation forces"

He should be awaiting charges in the US, not fleeing the country.

Query: what happened to Meir Kahane's cousin who tried to kill NYC students with his car?

Threats and problems in every corner of the planet. 🤬

China has sent a huge naval force to completely blockade the Scarborough Shoal (just North of Sabina Shoal).

The Philippines were preparing a civilian Atin-Ito convoy to aid fishers in the area. Atin-Ito speaker confirms "heavy Chinese presence will not stop the convoy".

The 100+ Philippines fishing boat convoy, Atin-Ito, has begun sail towards Scarborough Shoal, which has been blockaded by Chinese military vessels.

Unprecedented heatwave in Bangladesh

With temperatures soaring past 40 degrees Celsius, crucial crops have wilted and yields are expected to plummet.
The prolonged heatwave has scorched ripe chillies, pulses, sunflowers, almonds and paddy crops, among others.

I promise, this is not a joke.

As part of his inauguration, president Putin has published a report presenting his goals for Russia in his coming 6-year term.

In this report — and this is golden — Putin expects to raise the life expectancy of Russians from 73 to 78 years… while his soldiers are being killed faster than the printer ink can dry.

This man is completely detached from reality.

The last 48 hours, Russia has crossed the border to Ukraine at three different locations north of Kharkiv, and new Ukrainian land is now contested.

At its widest point, the advance is 7 kilometers.

30 settlements have been bombed by Russia, and Ukraine has evacuated 1775 citizens from the area.

As Russia moves closer to Kharkiv, they open the possibility of shelling the city using cheap, regular artillery, so Ukraine is forced to push The invaders back across the border, to keep Kharkiv safe.
