“[open social] must be funded like infrastructure, not consumer apps. In fact, given the scale of hybrid threats, it should be funded from defense budgets, not innovation leftovers.
The strategic layer of democracy is the information layer. And right now, it is outsourced.” @seabass.bsky.social

The joint statements coming out of the Summit on Digital Sovereignty miss a structural blind spot: we keep talking about AI while ignoring the system that actually shapes public opinion at scale - social media. Social media is critical infrastructure. It governs what people see, what narratives take hold, and how fast disinformation spreads. As long as Europe remains dependent on a handful of US platforms, we have no meaningful control over the integrity of our own information ecosystem. Thi…

This is what BBC news articles look like nowadays: Every single sentence is its own paragraph, and I absolute cannot stand this “style” at all. I suspect the editors only care about making articles look nice in the mobile app.
IMHO, paragraphs are specifically meant to intuitively communicate which sentences belong together because of content/meaning. Just separating any sentences is what full stops do. If actually no two consecutive sentences belong together, the article is just incoh…

An actual article on the BBC website. The headline has been replaced with “Lorem ipsum”, and all numbers and Latin characters have been censored, so that only punctuation remains. Now, it is clearly visible that every single paragraph contains only one full stop (i.e. at each end).

Orchids are famous for specialized flowers that create species isolation by manipulating pollinators— but these ones don't have specialized pollinator relationships. Instead, they're isolated by pollen incompatibilities.

At the National Institutes of Health, big changes to its communications operations were already underway before Trump’s return to the White House.
But the new administration scrapped those carefully laid plans in favor of haphazard downsizing.
In January, more than 600 people worked in communications offices spread across the NIH.
Today, there are fewer than 100.
Officials, including Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., justified the deep cuts as…

As dangerous eugenic ideas spread, NIH falls silent
Federal research agencies are pulling back from fostering public discussions about science after the hollowing out of government communications offices.
