…"We're going to get just massively faster progress using the computation from these #AI systems that I believe will have practical pathways to harness #fusion #energy in the next 2 or 3 years."
Wright said the #supercomputers would also help manage the US arsenal of #NuclearWeapons [Skynet anyone?] & accelerate #drug discovery by simulating ways to treat #cancer down to the
molecular level.

"My hope is in the next 5 or 8 years, we will turn most cancers, many of which today are ultimate death sentences, into manageable conditions," Wright said.
[that sounds great, but #Trump has defunded #CleanEnergy, he actually wants to use #coal & other #FossilFuels which will increase #cancer rates!]

@indyradio we’re like a patient in the emergency room and the doctors are trying to find a way, any way, to keep us alive.
@impermanen_ so Trump wants to bring coal back.
that's really mind bending, when you think the rest of this through. then add that factor.

Local media is dropping the ball (again) by mostly failing to connect the extreme weather we've been experiencing to climate change, accelerated by methane and carbon emissions.
In NZ, the biggest source of pollution is agriculture and specifically the dairy industry, followed by transport.
The current government is failing to address this issue, and quite the opposite, making it much worse by bowing to the industry.
This connection needs to be made explicit.
Things will keep getting worse, infrastructure will need to be rebuilt over and over again, homes will be lost, and lives will be broken until we take meaningful action to rework our economy, energy and transport.
The climate crisis is here and our heads are still in the sand.
#NZPol #ClimateCrisis #tooManyCows #dirtyDairy #FossilFools #carDependency
@pezmico Stands to reason because agribusiness is NZ's main economic activity. Lowest carbon countries don't have economic activity. Let's not do that. NZ is at the forefront of research into reducing dairy emissions, and are well placed to do so in future, with new grazing methods, ~30% reduction. Expecting NZ - not good not bad on CO2 - to suddenly find some other main activity is bonkers and you won't like the new job. New drilling is much worse. As always #fossilfuels getting a pass.
Grounded jet engines take off again as datacenter generators
AI-driven datacenter energy needs are causing a shortage of gas turbines to power generators, with some operators reportedly turning to old aircraft engines instead.
As The Register reported recently, US bit barns are set to consume 22 percent more grid power by the end of 2025 than the same time last year.

Zu sagen das Stolpersteine nicht ins Stadtbild gehören, wäre eine Aussage welche zu recht ein Skandal auslösen würde. Aber zu sagen das Menschengruppen nicht ins Stadtbild gehören oder dieses unschöner machen, eine Ideologie welche das letzte mal dazu führte, dass wir schlussendlich Stolpersteine brauchten, ist in der deutschen Mainstream-Politik längst angekommen.

Der Weg zum Faschismus wird heutzutage mit der hübsch verchromten, mit bunter Werbung behängten Planierraupe* (aka u.a. Bürokratie...) geebnet.
Es wird alles abgeräumt was an demokratischem/sozialem bisher erreicht wurde.
Proteste, internationale Verpflichtungen, Gesetze, Urteile, Fakten und ja auch Stolpersteine..? Ein paar Nebelkerzen und weiter..
Während Antifas** noch über die Art des Widerstandes diskutieren.

#RenewableEnergy overtook #coal as world's leading source of #electricity in first half of #2025 - a historic first.
Electricity demand is growing around world but growth in #solar and #wind was so strong it met 100% of the extra electricity demand, even helping drive a slight decline in coal and gas use.
Developing countries, especially #China, led the clean energy charge but richer nations including the #US and #EU relied more than before on planet-warming #fossilfuels.

China is leading the way in the battle to win the energy export market: Its exports hit a record in August, with $20 billion in products shipped globally, according to a new report. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2025/10/06/economy/china-us-energy-exports/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #economy #china #us #energy #donaldtrump #trade
@thejapantimes it seems that the US is dead set on going the way of the buggy whip and the Encyclopaedia Britannica. The buggy whip people missed the new automobile technology that replaced the horse and cart and Britannica missed the rise of digital encyclopaedias and the internet. There is a lesson for Australia in this too.

Doctorow on Solar Transition in far better shape than we're given to believe
"the material bill for solarization is in freefall, with no end in sight. The amount of stuff we need to make panels, transmission lines and batteries keeps declining. Further: the efficiency gains of “clean” technology are astounding — meaning that, for example, it not only takes a lot less material to make a solar panel, the panel we make out of so much less stuff generates a lot more power. More: we keep finding ways to substitute more abundant materials for materials that are harder to find or refine (for example, swapping out lithium in batteries and replacing it with sodium, one of the most abundant minerals on Earth). Finally: we keep finding new sources of the materials that we can’t readily substitute for"
