That's it. I stopped interacting some time ago and today I uninstalled Twitter mobile. I'm off to LinkedIn linkedin.com/in/alexamici and Mastodon fosstodon.org/@alexamici. Follow me there.
So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish

Meta, Google, and Microsoft all use encryption built by the same 50-person nonprofit.
Zero revenue from 2 billion users. The founder uses a fake name. And when the FBI subpoenaed them, they only provided 2 pieces of data.
Here's how a non-profit secures the internet🧵

Xarray v2024.10.0 has just been released, including support for xarray.DataTree and zarr-python v3 !!!

Things were settled, but honetly, I started feeling bored until I got some fresh air from accounts like @umbraspace, insightful tweets by @mouthofmorrison @aravindEO & getting support from e.g. @A_Zampieri_EC @stephen_quest @SallaLoi & many other @EU_ScienceHub collegues 10/15->

Dear all! It's time to say good bye!
This will not be a break but I'll stop this account the 10th of September. It has been a pleasure to share so many images, videos, information & experiences with you. I hope you are now a bit closer to the #EO community. THANK YOU! 🧵 1/15->

The @xarray_dev data model now supports vector data cubes! 🎉 Check out our blog post discussing + demonstrating this exciting development. Thank you to Xvec and others across the OS community for their work making this possible! 👏earthmover.io/blog/vector-da…

There is no definition for "doomer." To lump "doomers" together is like calling all pizza toppings pepperoni.
As Sam Mitchell has said, ask 12 doomers what it means to be a doomer and you will get 13 different answers.
This is my answer:

I'm sorry Slack, you're doing fucking WHAT with user DMs, messages, files, etc? I'm positive I'm not reading this correctly.

It is with great sadness that we have to announce that our founding director Peter Fulde passed away on April 11, 2024. We will make every effort that his spirit will continue to guide the institute as his living legacy. Directors of the MPIPKS

This is the most concise and comprehensive essay on the messaging from mainstream climate science I have read. A+++++
"the vast majority of people still haven’t a clue about what’s going on – and what this means for them and everything they hold dear..."

Another important development for @CopernicusECMWF
📣 #C3S is proud to launch a new tool: Climate Pulse.
The aim of this tool is to make climate monitoring more intuitive and available to everyone by providing a precise picture of the near-real time status of our climate.
Discover it here 👉climate.copernicus.eu/climat…

Today's conversation is a deep dive on how we do scientific computing today, and how it could be better
Talking to @rabernat about @pangeo_data, @zarr_dev and @EarthmoverHQ
Watch: youtu.be/3IWp-MuSm6w
Why exactly are people at #cop28 still talking about the 1.5°C target, that has long gone.

I am 10 years old today! 🥳
Thanks for all your support and love! ❤️

My usual deep-dive on @IEA #WEO23
📉Global CO2 cld peak *AS SOON AS THIS YR*
⛰️Global fossil fuel use peak in 2025
🇨🇳China fossil fuel use peak in 2024 (!)
🌄Solar outlook for 2050 up 69% vs last yr (!)
🌡️Warming 2.4C (🔽 2.6C 2021 ⏬ 3.5C 2015)

The last bar on the right represents the temperature anomaly wrt pre-industial for the month of September 2023. Words can't easily convey how abnormally large this is: by far the warmest September on record; no other month ever reached anomalies as large. @CopernicusECMWF

#DYK?
Our #CopernicusClimate Change Service has developed a tool which monitors the evolution of global air temperature over the last decades up to the present and estimates the date when global warming will reach the 1.5°C limit set by the Paris Agreement
