OK YOU CAN HAVE EUROPA TOO, WHATEVER
Seriously, @theplanetaryguy.bsky.social does a great job explaining a new paper in plain language. Since the 80's we've learned Europe is more likely more thicker ice / less active side of wide early estimates and this paper is another nail in that direction

New paper alert!
tl;dr: the seafloor of Europa is probably tectonically inert, meaning little to no active fracturing that could expose fresh rock to seawater.
Without such water–rock reactions the prospect for there being life within Europa just took a big hit.

Manan (2025) used the social cost of carbon from a blog by EDF (2017), which cites a blog by Shelanski & Obstfeld, who use a later discarded estimate from an early draft of the Interagency Working Group.

Is it bad that nobody justifiably believes anything Putin says while the President of the United States believes everything he says?

I noticed whenever a show/movie decides to have these quiet, introspective moments like in Eternals, The Acolyte, or even Andor, that’s when people decide to call it “slow” or poorly written. It’s like no, you’ve just conditioned yourself to see action moments as the only valid thing.

The U.S. Won’t ‘Get’ Venezuelan Oil
Regime change in Venezuela should open up its oil industry to foreign investment, but won't result in a transfer of oil assets to the U.S.

Worse, we always we "We can't afford NOT To pay our CEO millions of dollars a year."
What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.”
What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.”
Funny how that works.

If they are so great and inevitable, why do we need bans on competitors?
The shift to EVs is happening—fast. Manufacturers can either embrace the long-term transition or chase short-term gains by clinging to petrol and diesel.
China is choosing the long view. Many in Europe aren’t. The risk? Ending up with cars no one wants, lost market share, and shuttered factories.
