In what environmental advocates describe as
“another gift to the fossil fuel industry,”
🆘the Trump administration plans to end rules limiting the release of planet-heating emissions from power plants that burn coal and gas.
🔥Power plants are considered the largest industrial source of greenhouse gas emissions in the US and account for about a quarter of the nation’s climate pollution, according to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
In 2024, the EPA under the B…

Dokumentarfilm Deutschland 2024 +++ Petra Kelly glaubte daran, dass ein einzelner Mensch die Welt verändern kann – und lebte es kompromisslos vor. In den 1980er Jahren wurde sie zur Ikone der Friedens- und Umweltbewegung, trieb Proteste gegen Atomkraft und Atomraketen an und forderte eine radikale gesellschaftliche Transformation: eine blockfreie Welt ohne Waffen, Frieden mit der Natur. In den USA politisch sozialisiert, geprägt von Vietnamkrieg-Protesten, Bürgerrechtsbewegung und zivilen …

After months of resistance, the Democratic National Committee finally relented this May and published a draft of its "autopsy" of what had gone wrong in the 2024 election,
saying it was releasing the unfinished document “in its entirety” in the interest of transparency.
But, according to Paul Rivera, the man who wrote the autopsy, the draft omitted a chapter titled
“What Happened in 2024,”
which he said he had printed out and placed in a three-ring binder th…

When this year began, the Democrats were heavy underdogs to take back the Senate in the midterms.
The task would require not only toppling Susan Collins in Maine but also winning at least five states that voted for Donald Trump in 2024,
while holding on to all of the party’s existing seats.
The realistic best-case scenario seemed to be a replay of the so-called blue-wave 2018 election, during Trump’s first term,
in which Democrats took back the House but the Senate re…

In 2024, the FBI sought to launch a sweeping "pay-to-play" investigation examining interactions between Sen. Susan Collins and a top donor, records and emails show.

Confession: The donor, an ex-defense contractor, told agents his company won millions in federal contracts by bankrolling campaigns of powerful politicians.

ChatGPT is bullshit - Ethics and Information Technology
Recently, there has been considerable interest in large language models: machine learning systems which produce human-like text and dialogue. Applications of these systems have been plagued by persistent inaccuracies in their output; these are often called “AI hallucinations”. We argue that these falsehoods, and the overall activity of large language models, is better understood as bullshit in the sense explored by Frankfurt (On Bullshit, Princeton, 2005): the models are in an important way…
