“In practice, this sort of technology could be added to commercially available internet-connected thermostats. In exchange for credits on their energy bills, users could choose to join a service run by the thermostat company, their utility provider or some other third party.”

Now get Udo Kier.

“Com a ocupação dos espaços, o modelo perde fôlego. A competição entre igrejas evangélicas e com a Igreja Católica impõe limites à abertura de novos templos. Estimativas mostram que a entrada de novas igrejas cai conforme cresce o número de templos em operação.”

Imagine when they find out Reinhold Niebuhr ran (twice) as a political candidate of the Socialist Party.

Em homenagem ao Dia dos Namorados — e em consonância com a teoria do homem-rato —, o imortal slogan-paródia de O Abominável Dr. Phibes (1971): “Amar é nunca ter que dizer que você é feio.”

History is full of Eugene Landys.

C’mon, guys! Is it really lost on you that Donald’s big beautiful opening night is about a petty officer who obsessively persecutes a good man amid the upheaval of a country in which the downtrodden are seriously abused by the ruling class?

“Sabemos que liberdade de expressão tem limite, mas o Judiciário não demonstra interesse nem capacidade em definir onde ele se encontra. Muito menos em estabilizar esse limite de forma coerente.”

“Child-rearing preferences seem to be unrelated to attitudes about conformity in society. But there is good reason to believe that an adult who prefers conformity, obedience and uniformity in children also desires the same in society at large.”

AI slop and sophisticated deepfakes—along with CNN-style Tapper-like coverage (“the smell of weed..)—can further muddle the waters of public opinion.

Não é de hoje. A sociedade nigeriana é, no geral, bastante conservadora –– apesar de isso não explicar tudo: há países mais conservadores na África subsaariana. Uma das teorias é a extrema insatisfação com os próprios líderes e os rumos do país. 2017:

“In reality, what ethics comes down to in practice is: nothing’s perfect. There’s a high-level thing of 'Do not discriminate', which I think we can all agree on, but this example highlights some of the complexities of how you translate that [principle].”

"Good Vibrations remains one of the towering achievements in all pop history. It was impossibly complex – even Wikipedia’s summary of its structure takes up over 1,200 words and contains diagrams – but its constant emotional shifts from wistfulness to charging euphoria flowed perfectly."

Like Donald J., Sam Altman is fond of pulling numbers and facts out of lower orifices.

"Os músicos planejam levar o projeto para diversas cidades e abrir espaço para parcerias com outros nomes da música brasileira. Edson Gomes é um dos convidados para uma próxima edição, ainda não anunciada oficialmente."

Ainda é pouco, decidiu CVM.

"The group was established in the 1980s after criticisms that the Pentagon was fielding weapons and systems that didn’t perform as safely or effectively as advertised. Hegseth is reducing the agency’s staff to about 45, down from 94, and firing and replacing its director."

You're a dupe, Mr. Mulder.

"The lack of average differences between the performance of boys and girls at the beginning of the first year suggests that the causes lie in the environment children experience once they start school, rather than innate differences in interest or ability, say researchers."

“In crashes, high-bonneted SUVs are more likely to strike the vital organs in the core of adults’ bodies and the heads of children.”

Corporate America, the heaven of not-really-competent CEOs and groupie shareholders, is about to become their nirvana.

“Tínhamos que entubar o resultado das eleições.”

Summary: They agreed they need an agreement but they have none. In Lipsky’s own words: "They are back to square one but that’s much better than square zero."

Neither the Wright Brothers nor Santos Dumont. Besides, the bros were jerks with a catapult and no evidence. Who really invented the airplane? (Subtitles in English via auto-translate.) www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQcC...

"Meu ministro" ganha do convite de brincadeirinha.

Há aquela discussão imorredoura sobre o Nobel de Literatura: dificilmente os jurados leram as obras do autor premiado no original. Por que os tradutores também não ganham uns trocados?

"But Pauling had conducted none of the studies his vitamin C theories were built on. Human drug trials are large and expensive to run. So instead, Pauling’s claims were based on the review of existing literature and the experiments of others. This invited problems, such as flawed data."

Imagina uma fatalidade dessas na casa de um “comunistah”.

Bolsonarista em sala de espera de consultório e evangelico de ônibus têm em comum o costume de ouvir áudio de celular em volume alto. É como cachorro urinando pra delimitar território.

'Tratada de forma muito reservada nos bastidores, a @gabrielar702 é uma espécie de ”arma secreta” na estratégia bolsonarista. Cid percebeu isso, mas se manteve firme. A ver até quando.'

Faith in data –– and little else: "...treating the body like a fixable machine—subject to endless measurement and improvement—gives us a simple model of control. But in today’s world, the idea that a person is a machine fits all too neatly into our post-meaning world."

João Montanaro’s cartoon for today’s Folha de S. Paulo.

Pedro Páramo só pode ser lido à noite.

Not sure who the target audience is.

“Com o plenário ainda vazio, ele foi ao banheiro da Primeira Turma do STF e ficou trancado no box por cerca de dez minutos. Ele via vídeos nas redes sociais antes do início da sessão.” Não sabemos se lavou as mãos.

Hail to the chief!

Hail to the chief! Mas

‘Immigration ideas are driven by words that are symbolic to most Americans – “crisis at the border,” “invasion,” and visions of crime that are based on a few dramatic stories rather than statistics or most people’s lived realities.’

‘Salió fuera y miró el cielo. Llovían estrellas. Lamentó aquello porque hubiera querido ver un cielo quieto. Oyó el canto de los gallos. Sintió la envoltura de la noche cubriendo la tierra. La tierra, «este valle de lágrimas».’ (Em Pedro Páramo, de Juan Rulfo)
