@Sustainable2050@mastodon.energyThe first half of 2026 was the 5th warmest on record here in the central Netherlands.
Just following the forecast for the coming 2 weeks, and then the 1991-2020 average (cool by now) would already bring this year into the top-3 warmest since 1901.

It'sage isn't relevant, as it talks about things that are unlikely to change: Your data is only yours if you also have it on physical media in your possession. (And stored there in open formats.)
Because services will come and go, promises will be forgotten, data loss will not cause more than a shy "sorry". Especially for free online services, but it also happens for paid services.

@cdarwin@c.imOn May 2, 2024, Arizona governor Katie Hobbs signed a bill to repeal a near-total abortion ban from 1864 that the Arizona Supreme Court had reinstated on April 9, 2024.
The ban was not enforced by Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes, and the repeal took effect on September 14, 2024.
As a result of 2024 Arizona Proposition 139, the Arizona constitution codifies legal abortion up to the point of fetal viability

Mangione confessed that he shot and killed Thompson outside a New York City hotel on 4 December 2024.
In his federal case, he faced stalking charges, after other charges, including murder, were dropped.
“I shot Mr Thompson in Manhattan and he died,” Mangione said towards the end of a hastily scheduled, 45-minute hearing.
He added: …

Abstract: This study proposes that firms move along an "organizational technology ladder": adopting one technology transforms hiring and work processes and builds skills and organizational capital that change the cost of adopting subsequent technologies. I study how firms' adoption of remote work technology during the COVID-19 period shaped later uptake of generative AI. Using U.S. job-posting data and an instrumental-variables strategy based on predicted differences in labor-market pressure to offer remote work, I estimate that a 10 percentage point increase in remote hiring in 2021-2022 increases the share of job postings mentioning generative AI in 2023-2024 by 0.4 percentage points across firms and 0.7 percentage points across occupations within firms. I provide evidence on mechanisms consistent with a technology-ladder channel: remote work adoption shifts hiring toward technical and managerial capabilities that predict faster conversion of generative AI exposure into adoption. Firms with return-to-office mandates---interpreted as revealing low remote productivity---exhibit a substantially larger response of generative AI adoption to remote work, consistent with an organizational frictions channel.
