The non-exodus of California billionaires
The media says they’re fleeing a wealth tax. Except, they’re not.
Nary a day has passed of late that hasn’t seen stories about the billionaires’ flight from California, lest they be subjected to a proposed wealth tax that hasn’t yet gathered the required signatures to qualify for the ballot. The fact that there is no billionaires’ flight from California hasn’t impeded the flow of such tales.

Leuke analyse van de Volkskrant.
Wat ik alleen volledig mis is de 'logische keus' om Groenland in bezit te willen hebben.
The devil is waarschijnlijk in de details van de bijzondere aardmetalen. Een Amerikaans bedrijf heeft daar al een flinke vinger in de pap bij een van de bedrijven die zich er mee bezig houdt. Maar Groenland heeft een paar problemen:

A Hermetic, Transparent Soft Growing Vine Robot System for Pipe Inspection
Rehabilitation of aging pipes requires accurate condition assessment and mapping far into the pipe interiors. Soft growing vine robot systems are particularly promising for navigating confined, sinuous paths such as in pipes, but are currently limited by complex subsystems and a lack of validation in real-world industrial settings. In this paper, we introduce the concept and implementation of a hermetic and transparent vine robot system for visual condition assessment and mapping within non-bra…
