After immigrating almost 12 years ago & staying mostly in Toronto, I felt a bit more Canadian walking next to the Yukon River in Whitehorse at what felt like -30 before sunrise. Here for opendatasummit.ca/ #CODS2022

#CODS22 now underway thanks to the hard work of the @OpenDataSociety & @yukongov. Thanks to our sponsors @EcDevYukon @esricanada @Microsoft it's good to be meeting in person again after so long. And @city_whitehorse is spectacular.

Pretty good catchphrase. Excited for #CODS2022 by @OpenDataSociety. Open Data is an investment in society.

Yesterday was a historic day in plant biotech: a purple tomato engineered with high antioxidants was approved by @USDA @BigPurpleTomato helps prevent cardiovascular disease and fight cancer in humans.
This approval under new regulation ushers in a new era for plant synbio!
I was working with a new @Zeitdice 16MP Autofocus camera on a train and took a photo showing rolling shutter. Unless of course the pole really is that lopsided ;)

Today the @WhiteHouse announced that all federally funded research will be made openly available. Importantly, it eliminates the 12-month embargo. This is the result of decades of work by @SPARC_NA, @petersuber, @mbeisen, and so many more. #OpenAccess whitehouse.gov/ostp/news-upd…

The idea that we can "overshoot" 1.5 C and then reverse ecological damage later with carbon dioxide removal is not empirical science, but capitalist ideology, which claims, falsely, that any negative externality of growth is temporary and can be overcome by innovation.
