Industrial electrification is now a security imperative, finds Oxford analysis. “Industry has now lived through two major fossil fuel shocks in three years. First the 2022 gas crisis and now Hormuz. At some point you have to ask: how many times does the alarm have to go off before we change the system?”
Over the two and a half years

the rate of suicides among young people in the United States dropped 11 percent below projections,
decreasing most sharply in states with a higher volume of answered 988 calls, a new study has found.

Good Morning #Canada
My morning routine includes #CBCRadio with my coffee and this morning they had an interesting segment on Canadian youth returning to church. According #StatsCan 2022 data, 22% of Canadians ages 15-24 attended religious services at least once a month. That's a significant increase compared to ages 25 to 64. Angus Reid found that positive views of religion by #GenZ adults grew from 35 to 40% between 2023 to 2025, while views from every other generation significantly decreased.
This led me to read several news articles from late last year that reported on these studies, one of which is linked below. It appears the trend became noticeable during and after COVID lockdowns. The words of multiple interviewees tells me that young people's were looking for community and human interaction with something grounded with a sense of morality. That's positive even if you don't believe in her holiness above.

Reverse drafting club!
"Reverse drafting is the process of unraveling fabric swatches and diagramming their construction using weave draft notation. It’s really fun! So fun that we started a Reverse Drafting Club to work remotely on this practice with friends near and far. In 2022, we had nearly 400 members in this exclusive club, scattered across the globe.* You don’t have to be a weaver to get in on this. If you like puzzles of any kind, we think you’ll enjoy it."
I generally hate buying new computing devices and try to make them last as long as possible. I bought a used/refurb iPad 5th Gen in 2022 for $199 and got 2 years of solid use before I upgraded to a 6th Gen in 2024 (for $170) so I could use an Apple Pencil.
I then put the old 5th Gen on my trainer bike as a video player and it still works great.
But sadly, two years in the 6th Gen now has dead spots on the screen. I may need to replace it.

Friend in Bray was looking to move back into the home she was renting in 2022 for €2,100/month.
The landlord quotes her €3,000/month.
I’m shocked: how can he do that when there’s a 2% yearly cap on price increases? So the most he should be able to charge is €2,273.10.
Can you guess the answer?
Did you say because Irish people elected a majority conservative/neoliberal government?

I've updated (mostly culled) my list of Milwaukee Mastodon users.
This list used to be over 80 people, but the vast majority only posted in 2022/2023. A few straggled into 2024. I removed anyone who hasn't posted more than once in 2025.
It kind of sucks, but meh... it is what it is.
Also, I should try to find more people. And, move this off of GitHub at some point.
Several years ago, a street medic described a system like this and wanted to know if it could be built.
https://hackaday.com/2022/09/08/the-tak-ecosystem-military-coordination-goes-open-source/
Back then there was just no way to make it happen. Hardware was too expensive. We couldn't really ever get it cheap enough, per medic, to deploy. Best I could put together was a bunch of burner phones.
But now it's starting to really make sense. LoRa is cheap, and possibly cheaper in bulk. And it wouldn't be necessary to build everything since ATAK-CIV exists and has several open source implementations. It can even tie in to drones (which are illegal to bring to protests in at least a few states).
This has a lot of potential applications for street medic coordination, protest marshal coordination, and for airsoft teams...

Twenty-one states funneled nearly a half-billion dollars, or $491 million, of taxpayer money
to anti-abortion "crisis pregnancy center" organizations between fiscal years 2022 and 2025.
That figure does not include millions some states diverted from federal programs like "Temporary Assistance for Needy Families",
and it does not include multimillion-dollar tax credit programs launched after federal protections for abortion rights were overturned.

Just found out about the "take" command in Oh My Zsh, and oh my (pun intended) is it useful!
As the name suggests, it's a command that takes you where you want to be, combining multiple tools (e.g. mkdir cd) into one neat little command.
Found a nice article explaining what it does for anyone who's not familiar with it already:

dom: Animal dominance archive (2022)
Animal dominance interaction data published over a century of research. The archive contains 434 agonistic interaction datasets, totaling over 241,000 interactions. A directed edge (i,j) corresponds to an antagonist interaction between i (winner) and j (loser). If a 'weight' edge property map exists, it counts the number of such interactions.

Blake could barely make a living illustrating other people’s work, and it left no time for his own art.
He yearned for a different technique that could achieve the same result in less time and with less toil.
No such technique existed.
So he invented it.
Rather than cut the shapes onto the plates with his sharp steel burin, he painted directly onto the copper with a quill or brush dipped in acid-resistant varnish, then bathed the plates in acid, which stripped a layer …
