How the Golden Gate Bridge Works
YouTube video by Animagraffs How the Golden Gate Bridge Works

the promise of the internet was high-quality information, always available. this video is what people were imagining; it's really terrific. I had no idea how complex the Golden Gate Bridge was.

Da gerade viel über den „aufgeblähten Sozialstaat“ geschimpft wird, hier mal eine Erfahrung aus der Praxis: Hab mich mitten in der Nacht wegen eines anaphylaktischen Schocks (Ausschlag inkl. Atemnot) zur Notaufnahme geschleppt. Was ich da erlebt habe, treibt mir immer noch die Tränen in die Augen..

1/Herrschte in der DDR Sozialismus/Kommunismus?
Eine stern-Schlagzeile zu einem Interview mit H.Reichinnek und ein ironischer Kommentar von mir dazu, erregt einige Gemüter. Ich verstehe die Sehnsucht nach einer Alternative zum Kapitalismus. Aber warum müsst Ihr für das 21.

Buying an Apple Watch was the single most effective step to improve my life with LongCOVID. Here is how I learned to properly “pace” with it.

What's the carbon footprint of using ChatGPT or Gemini? [August 2025 update] A new study from Google suggests its Gemini LLM uses around 0.24 Wh per text query. That's the same energy as using a microwave for one second.

Yesterday, Google released a new report estimating the environmental footprint per Gemini query.

That's very welcome, as lack of any transparency from big tech companies has been a big problem. I hope others follow suit.

I wrote about on this on Substack: hannahritchie.substack.com/p/ai-footpri...

A black and white drawing of three dachshunds arranged vertically, each holding a different optical illusion object in its mouth, and the dogs themselves drawn as if a single line optical illusion. The top dog holds a Penrose triangle, the middle dog holds a Necker cube, and the bottom dog holds a Penrose trident. The dogs’ bodies are elongated in an exaggerated cartoon style. The artwork is signed “@IndieTheIntrovert” in the bottom right corner.

The difference between Ukrainians and US citizens is that Ukrainians fought the Russians and continue to do so, while US citizens let the Russians take over their country without putting up a fight.

How the British Broke Their Own Economy With the best intentions, the United Kingdom engineered a housing and energy shortage.

“Europe has an energy problem; the Anglosphere has a housing problem; Britain has both.”

Good read, I'd wish policy makers would heed more attention to such fundamentals!!!|

If the European Union 🇪🇺 is open to gobbling up skilled workers from the USA 🇺🇸 who love and believe in democracy, in return for asylum, I will happily put my Ironworking, building trades, and welding expertise to use for Europe 🇪🇺 and Ukraine 🇺🇦. I am disabled physically, but I still have my mind.
