Checked which Facebook groups my parents are in to see how radicalised they are. Dad's are a bit too Brexity for my liking but not a problem. Mum's were clean as a whistle but she's gone and joined a group of strangers mourning the death of someone with the same name as her.........

I thought the panhandle was Florida itself, not that bit at the top of Florida. It should be called the pan-panhandle-handle.

The White House just put itself in charge of nuclear safety, according to yesterday's Executive Order by the Trump administration which removes the independence of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (along with all independent agencies).

You can’t believe everything you read, but to be anti-Wikipedia is to be anti the idea that people can ever agree on anything and that the truth is even knowable. A couple of experiences recently make me think the freaks are setting Wikipedia up as a target.

Hot take: If employers really want people in the office they should pay a base salary plus £5k or £10k for each day of the week people routinely spend in the office.

Look, I don’t know much about American politics but I can’t imagine the Dems getting their act together until they have an actual leader. Instead of the current ‘herding cats’ approach, wouldn’t it be better to put someone in charge to, like, make decisions and stuff.

Very curious thing when applying for jobs in the UK is that so many of them seem to have errors where the salary is missing a 1 at the start.

Europe’s anti-nuclear holdout is wavering. The latest edition of my newsletter goes into Spanish lawmakers’ vote against the government's nuclear phaseout policy. It features a breakdown of the vote, and some exclusive polling on public opinion in Spain. kaufman.substack.com/p/europes-la...

DOGE is pulling up the ladder. Soon to be a trillionaire, Musk doesn’t want anyone else having such a fertile scientific/technical economy to work with. The goal is to become rich beyond imagination and detatch from the rest of the world.

Tempted to stay up and watch Kendrick at the Super Bowl. Surely the media moment of the century when he calls Drake a paedo and the entire crowd as well as 100 million at home sing along.

Recall in 2011 pointing out this inevitable future to those who thought Germany’s accelerated phase out meant nuclear was going away.

A clarification: If one is hiring for merit, the broadest pool of people to hire from is the most desirable. So including a wide range of people from different ethnic and gender groups in the hiring pool, and then as hires, is the best way to achieve merit.

Is any other country this confused about what to call itself? In Norway you sometimes find it under ‘Big Britain’ in drop-down menus, the literal translation of ‘Storbrittania’ 😅

I wonder how this working paper stacks up 6 years later - They find the social cost of the phase-out to producers and consumers to be $12 billion per year. Most of the costs fall to consumers, and most is in increased mortality risk from air pollution exposure.

Whatever Trump does, UK and Europe should do the opposite. He cancels $50 billion in health research; we double down on ours with a fast-track visa for US scientists.

Elon’s got Twitter, Zuck’s got Facebook, and Trump just captured TikTok. Spare a thought for poor Jeff Bezos who’s only got the Washington Post. 😢

This is great news. We need judicious teamwork as well as healthy competition between nations that are creating the new nuclear sector.

Well…the most prestigious nuclear merch just dropped: not a t-shirt or a magnet, but a pearl. They are cultivating oysters in the warm water outlet area of China’s Hainan Nuclear Power Plant. Pearls as large as 14mm has been achieved!

"Democracy Dies in Darkness" is kinda like "Don't Be Evil" as a slogan. It's a bit worrying when you choose it, but it's a lot more worrying when you take it down
