Google admits the open web is in ‘rapid decline’
The statement contradicts Google’s recent narrative about the health of the online ecosystem. For months, Google has maintained that the web is “thriving,” AI isn’t tanking traffic, and its search engine is sending people to a wider variety of websites than ever. But in a court filing from last …

Big news for the energy transition!
And a nice little 'told you so' moment for yours truly :)
In the first half of this year, renewables produced more electricity globally than coal, for the first time.
And 2025 is the date I predicted for this to happen, back in 2016, in a blog post for Ecofys! The score was 23%-40% at the time, with most of the renewables share still coming from hydro, and the prediction was less than obvious.

I have a question about the following:
Space-X satellites are relatively low orbit - they go around the world, their radio/signal footprint on the ground goes around the world with them.
So how does a single country, the US, issue "license" for radio spectrum that apply outside of the US geographic borders?
"SpaceX buys wireless spectrum from EchoStar in $17 billion deal"

I tried going for a 1km run this morning, first time out since tearing my calf back at the end of July.
After a few minutes walking, I started running slowly, only to make it a few hundred metres before feeling a weird "ping" in my leg that suggested I was maybe being over optimistic.
I walked the rest of the way, with no problems, but I'm a bit sad that I'm not quite ready to get back on the roads yet, to say nothing of the tennis court 😕

I'm not even big on Scarlett Johansson usually, but tried out Under the Skin from 2013 on a whim, and wow, this was a wild one. Some pacing and editing issues (as all modern films seem to have) but I really dug this - the ending is bonkers and then your confusion will all make sense. I do love knowing NOTHING about a film going in.

Scam/phishing bericht binnen (!) de Booking.com app waarin wordt gevraagd om mijn betalingsgegevens te bevestigen, ik rook onraad, even hotel gebeld, het bleek inderdaad phishing, ik was al de twintigste die hem daarover belde.... Booking heeft beveiliging niet op orde. Via Whatsapp kreeg ik vanuit India 😆 hetzelfde verzoek, wel met vermelding van al mijn boekingsgegevens (!). Ik vrees echt dat er flink datalek is bij booking.com
