High level weird. I miss simply being worried about the state of the world. I’m a systems thinker and multisolver. I like building stuff and making places. Inclusive mobility, bicycle urbanism.

En av de tingene som har forbauset meg er at samlivskurs i Norge av den forebyggende typen eller for den saks skyld bare en guide til fornuftige samtaler man bør ha tidlig i samliv er forbeholdt religiøse, Forsvaret og noen få andre og resten må forholde seg til coacher på tiktok og Frode Thuen (☠️)

Jeg (ikke religiøs) giftet meg katolsk pga tradisjon i min (agnostiske) manns familie. De har forberedelser man diskuterer hjemme så man helst ikke skal skille seg. Positivt at det ikke gikk på religion men slike forventninger til økonomi, roller hjemme, karriere, familie, seksualitet mm. Var nyttig

Rightly so! And climate politics is defence politics.

Climate policy contributes to Europe's security- it has even been calculated by outstanding economists like @joschkawanner.bsky.social.

The Nepalese EV transition.
In simple terms, brown on this graph is India's share and blue is China's share.
The trigger? India effectively halted all imports of petroleum into Nepal in 2015, an "undeclared blockade", which was "masked as constitutional concern".

When I drive, I AM traffic. And so are the others around me.

I'm grateful to the people on the bus, on foot, and on bike who take up far less space.

Trondheimspolitiet har altså ingen problemer med å ha folk i lederstillinger som har kvelt innbyggere til døde, men å håndheve skilting DET blir for inngripende ovenfor befolkninga.
Nydelig.

Politiførstebetjent Torgeir Jondum:

«[Politiet] kan ikke brukes som et verktøy i sånne sammenhenger som dette her [håndheving av trafikkskilt] fordi det blir for alvorlig, det blir for store inngrep mot befolkningen, sånn som vi politifolk føler det.»

Skremmende opptreden fra politiet på høring om samferdselsplanen i Trondheim i dag. De opptrer som politisk aktør i debatten om gjennomkjøringa i Midtbyen. Varsler at de ikke kommer til å håndheve skilting i Midtbyen fordi den er "komplisert" og at de ikke prioriterer skilting for kjøremønster.
– Vi sier til våre folk at de må holde seg unna Midtbyen
Politiet kan ikke straffe folk for å kjøre i strid med kjøremønsteret, sier politiførstebetjent Torgeir Jondum. - Skiltingen er delvis ulovlig.

Er det noen i sykkelskya som kan hjelpe meg. Jeg skal lage vindusdekor til Whee! og trenger 4 så store sykkelhjul som mulig. Lette er bra. Defekte er topp. Er det noen MTB-folk der ute som har noe liggende?

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

If you’re a journalist who’s still on Twitter, from now on in your writing you have to replace “the American people want” with “troll bots in Eastern Europe demand”

Being there makes your judgment suspect. I don’t care how savvy you think you are, you’re marinating in a disinformation campaign.

I genuinely think @mrnikli.bsky.social may be one of the best business writers in history, and “Brainwash An Executive Today!” is one of the best written and insightful and funny business pieces of all time. A must read. Execs can be really stupid!

ludic.mataroa.blog/blog/brainwa...
"Would you say that data observability is an issue?", they inquire with a tone that very clearly implies that this is a leading question. I am immediately deeply worried. For those who are unaware! , my specialty is building systems that move large amounts of data through companies, organize them in a way that is at least marginally less of a horrific clusterfuck than what random people without specific training will do when left to their own devices, and sometimes assist with statistics. Data observability is the high-level term that captures the ability of a business to go "Instead of downloading the data, it would appear the computers caught fire this morning. Would you like to fix this or pretend it never happened?" The reason that I'm concerned is that the executive in front of me should not be using that term. They have no idea what it really means, which is fine because they aren't specialized in my area, but I am wondering why someone who requires crayon-tier technical explanations is inquiring about a niche, unsexy element of a platform they don't understand. This would be like my 96-year-old grandfather asking me about Bitcoin mining-impressive if he had arrived at the question organically, but in practice I'm already dialing the bank to report a massive theft. ...Yes," I reply hesitant, "but I think we can remedy most of that by implementing some basic testing. With some backing, I can accomplish that in a month or two." "What do you think about Monte Carlo?" What the fuck is Monte Carlo? I've never heard of that. I mean, I know there's a place called Monte Carlo, and I know of Monte Carlo algorithms, but there's no way this person is talking about either of those. It must be a product. "I don't know what that is." "I saw it on LinkedIn last night and I think it will solve our observability issues. Do you think we should get it?" Oh. Oh no. I don't understand what exactly happened last night on LinkedIn, but I know it is dark and sad and reeks of unfulfilled wants. The executive sat before me has been marketed to. No, worse, they have been Marketed to, with a capital M.

Forsinkelser i rushtidstogtrafikken rundt Oslo i 2025 vil koste drøyt 600 millioner kr i tapte årsverk.

Men det er kun én av årsakene til at jernbaneinvesteringer rundt Oslo er spesielt viktig.

Arbeiderpartiet skriver i statsbudsjettforslaget at de vil starte en planleggingsprosess for ny 3. rullebane på Gardermoen, til tross for stor intern motstand, og at alle fire budsjettpartnerne er imot. Denne bør droppes lett.

I really need to finish up my blog post about power demand forecasts and the data centre apologia that's coming from within the climate movement, but for now, please appreciate this report that lays out that (a) this is happening now and (b) it's new

gridstrategiesllc.com/wp-content/u...
Data Center Demand Driving Peak Load Growth DATA CENTERS DRIVE ABOUT 55% OF FORECAST GROWTH Of the 166 GW of forecast peak load growth, roughly 90 GW are linked to data centers. • Very few utility load forecasts differentiate data center types. While some break out crypto mining facility load, not enough do so to provide a useful national estimate for this subcategory. Notably, artificial intelligence (AI) load is not categorically tracked in any publicly available utility forecast. • However, data center market analysts indicate that data center growth is unlikely to require much more than 65 GW through 2030. Similar growth is shown in one proprietary database of data center projects. This suggests that either the timing or the magnitude of FERC-submitted load forecasts collectively overstate data center-driven load growth by about 40%. Industrial and manufacturing drives about 30 GW, with oil & gas and mining sectors contributing perhaps 10 GW more. • While utility load forecasts often provide detail for subsectors, these practices are not consistently applied. It is not feasible to provide further detail at the national level, nor can a breakdown for energy use be estimated. Other drivers, representing about 30 GW of growth, include general residential and commercial growth (building electrification), EV charging (transportation electrification), and other factors. • Many load forecasts had roughly zero growth for these other load types, while as much as half of some other forecasts were attributed to these factors collectively. • This analysis required professional judgement to interpret available data. Useful forecast differentiation was available (or inferred) for forecasts representing about 90% of national load.

I haven't had enough time to process this yet but,

I've studied the anti-vax movement for 7 years of my career and I can't believe I'm now at the point where I can't recommend the CDC as a trustworthy source of health information.

This is dangerous, insane, and embarrassing.

Any journalist who has reached out to the federal government for a statement this year can attest to the unhinged responses they always get. I picked a couple of examples www.liberalcurrents.com/the-war-on-p...
When HuffPost journalist S.V. Dáte reached out to the White House to ask who had picked Budapest for the location of the president’s recent meeting with Putin, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt replied “your mom did.” White House Communications Director Steven Cheung also responded with “your mom.” Leavitt further elaborated: It’s funny to me that you actually consider yourself a journal [sic]. You are a far left hack who nobody takes seriously, including your colleagues in the media, they just don’t tell you that to your face. Stop texting me your disingenuous, biased, and bullshit questions.

Oof. This is gorgeous piece of writing.

"Words cannot keep up with what happens here. Language always follows loss. Still, I write, because forgetting is another kind of death. Writing does not save anyone; it only makes absence visible. It says, 'We existed.' It says, 'We tried.'"

In Gaza, language is insufficient to describe the magnitude of our loss, but I write anyway.
