If you would be interested in a novel and long-missing approach of how adopted domestic policy influences the design of other policies, do take a look. Further work will also be presented at the COPPR conference, Bern, in Jan!

Since National took NZ Govt office with ACT Party and NZ First, my friends and I have all lost work. Prices have gone up. Env't protections have been removed. Politicians have attacked #PayEquity, safer roads, and trans rights. I don't trust that lot an iota. 🔬

Hvorfor klarer ikke Norge sine klimamål? Det er et viktig tema nå når vi har fått oppdaterte, men like uklare mål for klimaomstilling. Erlend Hermansen og jeg viser at mangelfull politisk styring som en viktig årsak. Se hvordan vi kan velge å gjøre det bedre her.

Tja... det betinger jo en del antakelser om KI som jeg vil tro ikke stemmer (a la objektivitet vs bias, preferanser, "tenke" utenfor boksen, etc.)

04.01.2025 20:44 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0Imports continue to be a fairly big part of how Ireland meets its electricity demand. But looking at overall numbers for 2024, it's quite similar to 2023, but domestic generation mix became cleaner, leading to a 8.5% drop in average grid carbon intensity, which is certainly welcome news.
03.01.2025 10:40 — 👍 7 🔁 2 💬 1 📌 0Her har vi (dessverre) en sterk kontrast til Norges såkalte "satsning" på forskning i nåværende periode: Sverige ser ut til å gjøre en reell innsats. Det er vanskelig å forstå hvorfor Norge sakker akterut i denne konkurransen - tilsynelatende en villet politikk.

Horizon investment in our researchers would cost the NZ taxpayer next to nothing for huge investment & reward
If you find yourself in the Lier area at some stage we should compare notes:)

We need one for cabin life (without electricity and currently I am leaning towards the robot but perhaps you can change my mind? Love your beans too!

Men jeg antar du heller ikke mener at slike innlegg ikke skal kritiseres av meg eller andre, her eller andre steder?

The current NZ government is doing well to mess things up.

When I left X, I left 260000ish followers who cared about the NHS.
This is bad because the NHS is in a state of emergency and EveryDoctor has just launched an important petition. If you can see this, please could you follow me and share this? 🤞💙🚨
