Things will get worse as more students secretly use AI to do homework. There has always been a divide between those who care about education for its own sake and those who only care about grades, but AI will worsen this divide, leaving fewer people with the ability to do causal reasoning.

Another massive jump in Ebola cases in DRC (reflecting new cases as well as "data harmonization"). Now 2,905 cases including 1,269 deaths. I find it harder every day to square the size and speed of spread of this outbreak with the lack of attention it is getting. insp.cd/sitrep-n069-...

The pre-war status quo isn't achievable. Even if Iran allows free passage of the Strait... everyone knows it's by sufferance and pissing off Iran means it can/will be closed again. By making them feel they had no choice Trump, et al, gave them a power no one can really afford to attempt removing.

What's actually happened is the war entered a new phase: the fight for Hormuz. Trump lost his war so badly the US aim now is just to get back to the pre-war status quo. I explain in @ms.now, ICYMI:

Coisas que nunca pensei ver. Uma linha do eléctrico em Bruxelas, por causa do calor extremo, expande, eleva-se do chão, rasga alcatrão e provoca um acidente. Hoje, Sábado, algumas linhas estão encerradas por causa do perigo do calor nos pantógrafos. Várias ligações ferroviárias foram canceladas. +

Usei o termo "mini-maratona térmica" para os próximos dias. Isto não é rocket science mas é mesmo necessário preparar da melhor forma possível. Hoje é o dia 0. Noites de 6a, sábado e domingo devem ser particularmente complicadas em algumas zonas. Pela literatura, ao final de 3-4 dias, impacto.
Vão ser demasiados dias sucessivos de calor. Há zonas do país que precisam mesmo de estar mentalizadas para adaptação do quotidiano.
