To whom it may concern, and it should concern the editor: I was quoted in your publication: https://cosmosmagazine.com/earth/oceans/can-we-engineer-our-way-out-of-ocean-acidification/ Still, others aren't convinced that good intentions are enough. Dr. David Ho, Professor of Oceanography at University of Hawaii at Manoa, a cofounder and the Chief Science Officer of |C|Worthy, a non-profit that works on verifying ocean-based carbon dioxide removal, believes carbon removal efforts like ocean alkalinity enhancement shouldn't be left solely in the hands of private companies. "They have no way to prove that what they're doing is effective - that's a big problem," Dr Ho said. The crux of the dilemma, he explains, is that we are fighting a planetary-scale problem, but are doing it with tools that are still being built and tested. Geoengineering is not inherently good or bad, but it is inherently powerful. And power, especially when exercised in ecosystems as complex and fragile as the ocean, must be handled with caution. However, I have never spoken to your reporter, nor would I have said those things. I would like you to remove my quote from your story, and issue a public correction and apology. Furthermore, you should look into whether the other parts of the article are also factually correct. Thanks. d.

WTF? I was quoted in this story but I have never spoken to the reporter nor would I have said those things. Is everything just generated by LLMs these days?

Arielle Duhaime-Ross on Disaster-Prepping While Disabled A conversation with the science journalist and former correspondent for Vice News Tonight about preparedness and disability

It felt so good to have this conversation with @filowenstein.bsky.social. I spend a lot of time thinking about disaster preparedness and prepping while being disabled — and I clearly need an outlet for this, so thank you, Fi, for having me on the show open.substack.com/pub/fionalow...

I read a lot of science history books & disability books. “Everything is Tuberculosis” by @johngreensbluesky.bsky.social did what most don’t: it examined this disease through both lenses (and a political lens, too), without sacrificing one in favor of the other. Truly excellent listen (on @libro.fm)

I realize he has a name but he will always be "the Pebble watch guy" to me.

Aging is kinda that best y'all. (if you actually let life teach you something, that is)

Surprised that this was the first thing that came to mind watching this but: it's very nice to see the Pebble watch guy be so comfortable on camera, finally (so much more comfortable than he was back in the day)

He's older and more confident, and it shows www.youtube.com/watch?v=UCI7...

An underrated aspect of human colleagues is that they can tell you when you shouldn’t post something.

I just can't understand how an administration's most visible initiative is directing meaningless cruelty toward the people most enthusiastic about working for them

I did City Year in Los Angeles in the 2010s. We would have done anything for those kids. They needed as much support as they could get... while also charming and inspiring us City Years with their vibrant souls.

I'm so saddened by this. It made me proud of America that such a program existed.

Americorps was *the* thing that got my wife and I through two years of the 2008 recession. Heading into another recession without this agency is going to be absolutely devastating for communities and young adults.

Meanwhile I can’t stop thinking of all the nyc kids who benefit from the City Year program…

Please don’t put in the papers that I’m mad

So uhm fluoride raises one's iq?

Reporters should include it in their articles when the White House refuses to respond to a question because a reporter has pronouns in their bio. PRINT IT. EVERY TIME. OVER AND OVER.

“I find it baffling that they care more about pronouns than giving journalists accurate information, but here we are,” Mr. Berg said in an email to The Times.

I do not find this baffling.

“As a matter of policy, we do not respond to reporters with pronouns in their bios,” Karoline Leavitt, the White House press secretary, wrote to a New York Times reporter who had inquired about the potential closing of a famed climate research observatory.

Policy, folks. Policy.

Trump White House Won’t Respond to Some Journalists Who Display Their Pronouns Some Trump administration officials have declined to answer questions from several journalists on the basis of their email signatures.

(this isn't great for using Signal though - I really do need a solution for that. I can't turn off my phone all day)

Love the idea of the Light Phone, but ultimately I already have what i need to disconnect: I turn off my phone and rely on my cellular-enabled Apple Watch to keep me in contact with folks I love.

(Of course, There are tons of other ways that will impact different sectors… including the food system as a whole… restaurants are just one of them)

I.R.S. Agrees to Share Migrants’ Tax Information with ICE The agreement is a major departure from the Internal Revenue Service’s efforts to gain the trust of migrants and encourage them to file their taxes.

So many restaurant workers will be harmed by this (and therefore restaurants too - not to mention those tariffs) www.nytimes.com/2025/04/08/u...
