I think where I’m starting to land, with my experienced pre and post coding agents:
1. This is true, coding agents make you more productive if you know how to use them.

Modern LLMs (GPT-5.1, Claude 4.5, Gemini 3) produce excellent code and can be a significant productivity boost to software engineers who take the time to learn how to effectively apply them - especially if used with coding agent tools

If CO2 emissions go to zero in 2050 (top), the sinks (green) will bring atmospheric CO2 back down (middle), & temperature will stabalise at ~1.7°C (bottom).
Going to zero today will keep us <1.5°C
Constant emissions leads to 2.6°C, rising rapidly thereafter.

Dancing frogs have become a symbol of resistance in the USA.
Interestingly, over a decade ago David Graeber wrote a piece on the power of such symbols in protest movements.
The piece is called - On the Phenomenology of Giant Puppets. Here is an extract.

– palautetaan progressiivisuus tuloveroihin ja omaisuuteen,
– tukitaan veropohjan vuodot ja estetään verosuunnittelu,
