Peter Thiel has been open about this for a long time. Trump is a way to break the republic, which can then be replaced by “free economic zones” with oligarchs as dictators and tech as a taskmaster for helpless humans without any rights. (1/2)
"They told us what they were going to do. They published it. They put it on a website. And when it happened, the press was surprised."
Hoo boy, everyone should bookmark this @parkermolloy.com piece & make sure everyone involved in media reads it.
The growth curves are striking and I'm not sure people grasp the changes that are coming from widespread adoption of these technologies.
I cannot stress enough how much PIs appreciate hand written notes from graduating mentees. I cherish each one, & many are hanging in my office.
Related, if you left a while ago & have good news, we love to get emails from former mentees! Let us celebrate with you!
Today I was lucky to get both 💜
So cool! Looking forward to more on the air-water interface.
You don't need to rebuild trust in science because trust in science is *quite high*. Supermajorities of Republican voters trust science!
This is (partly) the right diagnosis, but for the wrong (nonexistent) problem.

Good TV
In Saskatchewan, a new generation of farmers are experimenting with techniques to make their farms more sustainable and climate-proof. It’s working. Their soil is healthier — and so are their bottom lines. thenarwhal.ca/saskatchewan...
Nevada should be a solar powerhouse. Anything less is a missed opportunity.
Our annual statisical publication, The State of Post-Secondary Education in Canada is out today. The book is very pretty: the state of postsecondary education in Canada isn't.
Every time I see these plots, it blows my mind. What an incredible scientific and human achievement.
The global switch to renewable energy has passed a “positive tipping point”

Huge win for the @winnipegjets.com. Helle is back! #gojetsgo
This latest study has such a great collaboration between theory and experiment. It makes each more than they are individually and is my favorite type of work. Congrats to all that were involved. #chemsky #electrocatalysts www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Awesome to see!
Quite a thread…
David thank you and all your colleagues for your hard work over this election season. The CBC is in good hands.

My opening remarks in defence of the CBC at the recent Mount Royal debate.
In Vancouver tonight, we laid flowers in memory of the victims of the devastating Lapu Lapu festival attack.
