In the last 50+ years, mainstream politicians, obsessed with economic growth use the same dishonest trick to defeat taking action on the environment. They pledge to take action, and when they think everyone has forgotten about what they pledged, they renege on their pledges.
1/🧵
All climate activists/environmentalists need to be aware of this, because mainstream economic growth obsessed politicians, have consistently used the same deceitful dishonesty, over and again. I'm not aware of any political pledge on the environment, that has been honoured.

There's almost a 100% record, of politicians and governments, never honouring their pledges on the environment. In every instance, politicians and governments, subsequently renege on pledges they make, on climate change, biodiversity loss, and environmental protection.

In the late 70s the Labour rejected a blueprint for redeploying skills, ideas and workers that private industry didn't want to retain, into socially useful work. And now we have a Labour government promoting AI as a "solution" to worklessness and skills "deficits".
Skilled craftspeople and designers produced plans for work to benefit the NHS, transport etc and the answer was no. Now, amid rotting infrastructure Labour throws money at AI because Tech Bros and investors promised them it can do things that they haven't demonstrated it can do.
You could have set up manufacturing and design colleges using the skills of people like the Lucas shop stewards, linked to R&D. The advances that could have been made as technology developed. But all with a core principle of "don't throw ideas away or people on the scrap heap"

THAT’S WHY AIRLINES HATE CLAUDE 4.6 🧵

Flight listed at $879.
I paid $299.

No points.
No airline status.
No VPN tricks.

Just 8 prompts I used with Claude to book like a pro ↓ Image
1/ Airlines don’t price flights fairly anymore.
They price based on demand signals, timing, and hidden fare buckets most people never see.

I stopped guessing. I started prompting.
You can easily start earning from this system too.

⚡️SITREP : 1405 :: SOLAR POWER ⚡️

So, about a Hour back, Someone who is an acquaintance called me up, to help him understand the nuisances oof Goa Electricity Dept Bill, post Solar Installation.

Apparently, He was promised that as per the Capacity installed, He won't get any.
(2) Now, obviously that Statement is RELATIVE and depends on Consumption.

Also, another Factor is installed capacity of Solar Panels and actual generation.

So started querying the Solar Company guys, on what could influence the the G or Generation part, which influences E
(3) or Export (To Grid) Part, Which influences the I or Import(From Grid) part.

1. No Power (Shutdown etc), There is NO GENERATION /EXPORT from Solar Plant to Grid; because the Inverter etc and whole Electronics system too shuts down.

Which is kind of understood.

2. Most IMP

Understanding the @solana #Ecosystem and its #opportunities is hard, because it's big, dynamic and sprawls.

But there is so much alpha in the podcasts from the #GoodWood show hosted by @punktaveira and #CTTwenty.

Here's a catch up thread from me about what I learned.

🧵👇
Certainly interested in #MetaDAO, after my birthing in #Governance at #Bankless. Market led governance must be an interesting area.

Also @BanditoDAO , because #GovernancePracticalities really matter, as does finding balance for maxis.

@BanditoDAO I have long advocated #UtilityNFTs have a big role for blockchain, yet are overshadowed and diminished by meme coins. #ChrisTaylor from @MagicEden is one to watch.

Noting project-engine, a Founder emphasis 🔎 feeds both Web 3 Creators and Devs. My GH plans include gaming!

According to @RuslanLeviev Russia’s use of civilian cars to transport military fuel (e.g., gasoline from Dagestan to occupied Tokmak, Zaporizhzhia region) risks escalating UAV strikes against civilian vehicles in southern Ukraine, despite not meeting strict war crime definitions. Image

At the same time, @RuslanLeviev also notes a clear violation of international law prohibiting deception in warfare: the RuAF use a repainted military vehicle disguised as a civilian dump truck.

Some narcissists have institutional protection. They have money. Authority. Systems that shield them. Your boss might be one. The protection makes them more dangerous because exposure is harder. So your strategy isn’t exposure. It’s invisibility and documentation.
A narcissist with institutional cover doesn’t fear individuals. They fear evidence. So document everything. Email confirmations. Written records. Messages. Not to expose them. But to protect yourself when they inevitably turn on you.
Your institutionally protected boss wants compliance and silence. They’re not scared of you. They’re just managing you. So your power isn’t resistance. It’s appearing compliant while protecting your boundaries. Boring compliance is your shield.

🧵There are extensive narrations (and equally amusing sugarcoating by apologists) of the noble prophet's love life. And this despite the fact that he identified most of the inhabitants of hell as female.

Seeing Russia use BM-35 to attack the front line is funny. These drones were supposed to take out Ukrainian logistics, the way ukrainian drones are destroying Russian logistics, but elon musk snapped his fingers and poof. Without America, Russian "technology" is garbage.
They use these things like molniya now. A mockery of their original purpose.
Whats funny is that Ukraine has taken their own Darts and Blyskavka and turned them into long range logistics hunters while Russia has them tied to the front line to blow up random houses.

First, they forced E20 petrol on us, ruining older engines and dropping mileage.

Now, they are coming for your diesel cars, trucks, and tractors with a 15% Isobutanol mandate.

While the common citizen pays ₹90-100/L for "diluted" fuel, who actually wins here? 🧵👇 Image
The Mileage & Maintenance Tax on Citizens:

The government claims Isobutanol is "better than ethanol," but the ground reality of blending remains a nightmare for vehicle owners.

High alcohol blends are notorious for moisture absorption, fuel-system corrosion, and rubber degradation. If your vehicle sits idle, expect a massive repair bill for ruined engine metallurgy.
The Micro & Macro Economic Blow:

Diesel powers India's logistics, agriculture, and public transport. Mandating a 15% blend without extensive, multi-year, real-world testing across millions of older commercial engines is a massive gamble.

A drop in heavy-duty engine efficiency directly translates to higher transport costs, inflating the price of daily essentials for the common man.
