"Installing wind power in line with the EU’s 2030 goals could have cut gas consumption in the
power sector by more than the entire gas imports from Russia in 2025"

> Italy does not deem it reassuring to endorse a solution that authorises providers (i.e., private entities, mostly non-European) to conduct, without proper counterweights, those mass scanning activities that triggered the concerns expressed by several Member States during the negotiations
Yay for Italy! This is the right direction
Today I'm in the mood of expressing gratitude for the work of colleagues that influenced and inspired me. Plus, it's the #IWD26 so, here we are.
TLDR - if you're interested in complex systems and AI, do yourself a favor: read works by @melaniemitchell
Specifically, a great introductory work on complex systems is her book "Complexity: A Guided Tour" - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5597902-complexity
About AI, I suggest her more recent "Artificial Intelligence: A Guide for Thinking Humans" - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/43565360-artificial-intelligence
If you don't want to take my words for granted, take a peek at her substack - https://aiguide.substack.com/ - you will get a taste of her unique mix of competence, depth of analysis, and clarity.
You can thank me later.

New post: if you're a developer and you're feeling down these days, it's ok. One way to recover is to build stuff for yourself, with the process and tools that you dictate.
I'm pretty sure I'm late to the game, but I'd like to add Android 15 DnD+Mute+Volume controls to this list https://uxdesign.cc/the-worst-volume-control-ui-in-the-world-60713dc86950
But TBH I'm sure it's been awful for quite some time.
Microsoft bans the word "Microslop" on the official Copilot discord, then locks the server

Today, the final negotiations on Chat Control 2.0 begin.
We hope the European Parliament stands firm against any wording that paves the way for mass surveillance and censorship. Cyprus, currently holding the Presidency of the Council of the EU, aims to conclude the negotiations by June.
A reminder of the corrupt backstory behind the Chat Control proposal and the involvement of Ashton Kutcher and his company Thorn: https://mullvad.net/why-privacy-matters/going-dark
After Snowden’s whistleblowing in 2013, large parts of the internet became encrypted, enabling private and secure communication. Not everyone has welcomed this change. Most notably, the FBI and other U.S. government agencies have fought what is often called the “crypto wars”, the war on encryption. In recent years, they have been joined by the European Commission. Under the slogan “what about the children,” they try to introduce total mass surveillance of all EU citizens — first through the proposed Chat Control legislation, and later via the Going Dark and ProtectEU initiatives. The goal is to legally mandate spy tools on every European smartphone and computer. The forces behind these efforts have turned out to be American tech companies and intelligence agencies.
