In a survey of 25 countries, the United States was the only country in which more adults describe the morality of their compatriots as bad than good. 53% of respondents said that the morality and ethics of other people in their country is either somewhat or very bad. Since this is a new question for Pew Research, the team says they don't know whether this is a long-held view or something new. A million miles away in sentiment, but just kilometres away geographically, 92% of Canadians think other Canadians are either very good or somewhat good.

We are aware of recent reports regarding targeted phishing attacks that have resulted in account takeovers of some Signal users, including government officials and journalists. We take this very seriously.

To be clear: Signal’s encryption and infrastructure have not been compromised and remain robust. These attacks were executed via sophisticated phishing campaigns, designed to trick users into sharing information – SMS codes and/or Signal PIN – to gain access to users’ accounts.

Früher war das Autoland Deutschland das Zentrum der Innovationen. Heute müssen wir immer öfter nach #China schauen. #BYD präsentiert einen Akku, der in 5 Minuten von 10 auf 70% geladen werden kann und in 10 Min. fast ganz voll. Nicht, dass man das unbedingt bräuchte. Aber damit hat wirklich niemand mehr ein gutes Argument gegen die #Elektromobilität. Das ist der Verbrennerfraktion in Deutschland aber egal. Und so verspielen wir in Deutschland immer mehr unsere Zukunft und unseren Wohlstand.

Worth repeating.

The Iranian warship that was sunk by a torpedo was returning from a joint exercise the U.S. pulled out of on the last moment.

Per protocol joining ships were unarmed. Ships had no option for defence. The U.S. knew.

The U.S. sank the ship and offered no help to the survivors.

#EU is this what we want to part of? Murder, also on murderers, remains murder.

NEW ANALYSIS: UK emissions fell 2.4% in 2025 as coal fell to a 400-year low. Incredibly, we used less coal last year than than in 1600, when Queen Elizabeth I was on the throne and Shakespeare was writing Hamlet. All the details in our article: www.carbonbrief.org/...

"When we talk about Baby Boomers not getting off the stage: In 1997, the US president was born in 1946.

In 2007, the US president was born in 1946.

In 2017, the US president was born in 1946.

And next year in 2027? The US president will have been born in 1946."

In my online undergraduate P5.js course, students are about to begin the module on motion and physics, including a bit of physics simulation using Matter.js. It suddenly occurred to me that I had never seen anybody put together this particular demo before, and I realized it had to be done.
