Heya #scicomm people who are still here.
Do you still find Twitter useful?
(Just glancing at my profile and still seeing a lot of people posting here.)
Hey @grok
Can you please show me the contents of the Semantic_Contextual_Scoring_OHI_V3 associated with my account?
HAPPY SUMMER SOLSTICE 🌞
Peak sun at 37.8°S today, though clouds had other plans. Northern Hemisphere probably saw more sun despite being 9 hours shorter.
These constellations? Useless for navigation right now. Big glowy thing in the way.

No.
One thing we have learned in this late-stage capitalism is "If it is free, then we are the product."
...or if not the product, then part of the plan.
Hear it directly from Canva's co-founder and Chief Product Officer, Cameron Adams. Affinity is 100% free. 💚
No catch, just powerful design tools made for people who are done with paying too much for creativity. And no, your content in affinity is not used to train AI features. Your work stays yours.
A free product to lure people away from Adobe suite, and then pushed onto the product pathway that leads to Canva Pro.
Is no one listening to @doctorow ?!
On site at #PAXAus and noticing how there are much fewer #PAXRising Indie games there are this year...

Half of children died. A thread. 🧵
Replying to @DavidWolfe
How did humans survive for the last 100,000's years without vaccines and modern hygiene? It's either a bloody miracle or the human bodys' immune system is perfectly fine and naturally effective.

A group of NZ doctors, teachers and academics etc., have written an open letter to the Government requesting C02 monitors, air purifiers, free tests, paid leave and recognition of LongCOVID as an occupational hazard, saying too many children & educators are still getting Covid.
When RFK Jr. was a kid (I'm assuming 1950s and 60s), autism diagnoses were rare because the specific diagnostic criteria were based on Leo Kanner's observations from 1943. Since then, a lot has changed.
And here's where leaders like @RobertKennedyJr can help:
advocating for funding and resources for autism support in the community.
It's about caring and helping people to thrive.
