Headline news makes it appear as if the Taliban was responsible for 9/11. #TeachingYouTheFear
Fear is a money maker for the media, which is why all the big media outlets push it.

Wow. Check this out: a RISC-V-based camera component (compatible with OpenMV)... is a similar cost to its ARM Cortext-M7-based predecessor... but is *thousands of times faster*... https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000009313628.html

Psst, pass it on: Billionaires and trillion-dollar corporations are inherently incompatible with social justice.

Signalise is a platform co-op that enables users to request and book interpreting services. Its democratically owned by deaf people, health staff and interpreters. This year they raised £330,000 pounds of investment in a crowdfunding campaign, exceeding their target by 10%.
It has now won the bid to become the main service provider for sign language interpreter services for the National Health Service in Liverpool, the fifth largest city in the country.
@mkwadee Neither. They didn't start the fire.

Wikipedia now has a more advanced citing system than science.
You can cite articles in #Wikipedia by giving their ID in #Wikidata. Then if an article is retracted this will become visible on all Wiki pages that cite the article. 🤗

Survivors of domestic abuse need to be able to remove their cell phone plan and information from the control of abusers. A new bill would let them.

The Minnesota Fusion Center, a federal-state law enforcement partnership, has been surveilling water protectors who are trying to protect their land and water sources from tar sands pipelines. https://unicornriot.ninja/2021/line-3-fusion-center-data-declared-secret/
Tired of working at places where they know they are not developing software in a sustainable manner, but aren't willing to make the changes needed due to ego and fear.

So if I want to read some reporting on the 4 month + long strike at the Warrior Met coal mine in Alabama, apparently Elle magazine is the place to go. The NYT, WaPo, CNN, MSNBC, not so much.

@dynamic No sarcasm. The article states our metabolism pretty much stays the same from our 20s through our 50s, so any weight put on in middle age is due to a change in exercise and dietary habits.
Turns out the weight we put on in middle age is all about life style changes and has nothing to do with aging. https://newsbots.eu/@ScienceDaily/106745671435360330
