Sarah cherche à vous convaincre de vous faire vacciner, et elle mobilise principalement l’ethos et le pathos pour y parvenir.
L’ethos repose sur son statut de médecin, sa posture de vulgarisatrice, les références aux autorités sanitaires et la description technique de la physiopathologie.
Le pathos passe par la peur, le sentiment d’impuissance et l’urgence créés par la présentation de la maladie. Le vaccin est alors posé comme la seule issue salvatrice.
Quand elle aborde le logos, elle met en avant des données historiques sans jamais mentionner leur faible niveau de preuve ni les multiples facteurs confondants qui influencent l’épidémiologie du tétanos.
Voici des déterminants du tétanos (liste non exhaustive) :
- Travail rural / agricole : Augmente fortement l'incidence car exposition fréquente au sol contaminé, fèces animales, outils agricoles (coupures, piqûres)... Les zones rurales ont historiquement et actuellement une incidence plus élevée que les urbaines.
- Vie urbaine / bétonisation : Diminue l'incidence en réduisant l'exposition aux spores telluriques (qui viennent de la terre)
- la mécanisation : à la campagne, elle diminue l'exposition au sol et aux spores telluriques. En ville, la mécanisation des transports urbains, en mettant fin à l'usage du fiacre, a contribué à diminuer l'incidence du tétanos de manière significative, principalement via une réduction massive de l'exposition aux spores de Clostridium tetani.
- accouchements non aseptiques : Favorise l'anaérobie et la germination des spores. Le tétanos néonatal est presque exclusivement lié à des coupes du cordon avec instruments non stériles ou application de substances contaminées (terre, cendres, etc.). L'hygiène lors de l'accouchement réduit à 0 l'incidence du tétanos néo natal, ainsi que de nombreuses autres maladies.
- Éducation et comportements : Une faible connaissance des risques implique une négligence des plaies et de l'hygiène nécessaire ce qui cause une incidence plus élevée.
Ces déterminants montrent que le tétanos est avant tout une maladie d’exposition et de négligence hygiénique, pas uniquement une affaire de “manque de vaccin”. Leur poids écrasant dans l’épidémiologie rend d’autant plus critiquable l’approche du thread : en passant sous silence ces facteurs pour glorifier le vaccin, Sarah ne vulgarise pas – elle oriente.
🚨Climate pathways to 1.5°C increasingly depend on land-intensive carbon dioxide removal (#CDR) like forestation and BECCS.
But new research shows these climate solutions could place major pressure on #biodiversity if deployed without safeguards.
Details🧵1/11
2/ Using five integrated assessment models, the study examines where large-scale CDR is projected to occur & and how often it overlaps with biodiversity hotspots and climate refugia, the places most critical for species survival.
3/ The analysis focuses on a moderate but realistic deployment level of 6 GtCO₂ per year:
• 3 GtCO₂/yr from forestation
• 3 GtCO₂/yr from BECCS
Even at this level, land pressures are already significant.

In 2015, Scott Adams made a “crazy” prediction that most people thought was impossible.
He said Trump had a 98% chance of becoming president, and he made that call on a single observation.
The winning attribute that made Scott confident in Trump’s victory was his one-of-a-kind persuasion skills.
While political betting markets dismissed Trump’s chances, Adams argued—using his background in persuasion and hypnosis—that Trump was the most psychologically effective candidate in the race and therefore favored to win.
He built a massive following by showing how persuasion, not policy, drives political outcomes.
That insight proved correct. But it also revealed something darker. 🧵
After Trump’s victory, Adams pivoted to punditry—and during COVID, even he struggled to see the truth.
Scott strongly endorsed the vaccines, vaccinated himself, and publicly belittled followers who refused. Many later derisively called him “Clot Adams.”
In January 2023, Adams admitted—on video—that he’d been wrong and that the anti-vaxxers were correct. But he framed it as luck: the right people just happened to distrust the government, while “all the data” supposedly pointed intelligent analysts toward vaccination.
That framing matters. It reveals how even skilled observers of persuasion can mistake marketing consensus for truth—and how the same system that manufactures medical certainty also hides the limits of medicine, until reality forces a reckoning.
Last May, Scott told the world something most people never say out loud until it’s unavoidable: he had terminal, metastatic prostate cancer.
He openly stated he planned to use California’s medically assisted dying to reduce suffering.
He also shut down speculation—saying he had already tried fenbendazole and ivermectin and had no interest in continuing them.
The reaction was explosive.
People weren’t just debating treatment choices—they were watching, in real time, what a protracted, modern death actually looks like.
For many, it shattered comforting abstractions about both cancer and mortality.
My first CIA assignment was to Nigeria, almost 20 years ago, looking into the earliest reports of the group that would become Boko Haram. It was clear northern Nigeria was going to become a Jihadist hotbed- but AF-Pak and Iraq got all the policy focus-
That's how an extremely green CIA analyst finds himself roaming free in a hardship country, doing work way above pay grade. It was a nasty place, and a policy backwater then. As long as the oil pipelines in the south were intact, nobody really cared about the north
For the first time, I saw that our state dept. refused to take the idea of anti-Christian persecution seriously. The career leadership were all leftists, of course. So state dept was willing to leave Christians high and dry- pure bias
1/ Russian retailers are cashing in on Elon Musk's mass disabling of the Russian army's Starlink terminals by massively increasing the price of Russian alternatives. One such system has quadrupled in price overnight to over $2,600, but is said to be far inferior to Starlink. ⬇️
2/ 'Combat Reserve' complains that there has been a huge overnight increase in the price being asked for the Yamal 601 system, which uses Gazprom's Yamal satellite constellation. Units are now selling for 200,000 rubles ($2,612) apiece.
3/ Listings on Avito (Russia's answer to eBay) show that until yesterday, Yamal 601 units were being priced at between 45-60,000 rubles. They are however far less capable than Starlink, and Russian soldiers have avoided them in favour of the smaller and faster US-made system.
🧵 THREAD : Iran - Comment l'histoire de la Révolution Islamique est imprégnée de désinformation-
Ce thread doit tout à l'indispensable épisode du podcast de @marcweitzmann "Ligne de force". Il reprend l'essentiel mais je vous invite à l'écouter en intégralité grâce au lien communiqué à la fin du fil. 👇
Merci à Marc Weitzmann de m'avoir autorisé à le publier ainsi qu'à ses invitées @LadiKhanom et Chalah Chafi pour avoir eu le courage de décrire l'atrocité de ce régime et son influence jusqu'en France.
Force honneur au peuple Iranien. Leur courage éclaire le monde.
Janvier 2025. L'Iran subit la répression la plus brutale depuis 47 ans. Entre 16 500 et 20 000 manifestants tués selon les sources. 330 000 blessés graves. 25 000 détenus.
Mais pendant que le sang coule, une autre bataille se joue : celle de l'information.
@marcweitzmann 2/35
Ce thread décrypte un podcast exceptionnel de @marcweitzmann avec @LadiKhanom (historienne, Centre Abdorrahman Boroumand) et Chahla Chafiq (sociologue, auteure).
Leur sujet : pourquoi la violence du régime s'accompagne d'une guerre narrative systématique en Occident.
How to write prompts for ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini to get extraordinary output (without losing your mind):
Every good prompt has 3 parts:
1. CONTEXT (who you are, what you need) 2. TASK (what you want done) 3. FORMAT (how you want it delivered)
That's it. No 47-step frameworks. No PhD required.
Example:
CONTEXT: "I'm a startup founder pitching investors"
TASK: "Write a 1-minute elevator pitch for [product]"
FORMAT: "Hook + problem + solution + traction. Under 100 words."
PART 1: Context (the most skipped part)
Bad: "Write a marketing email"
Good: "I'm a B2B SaaS founder. My audience is CTOs at 50-500 person companies. They're skeptical of AI tools."
Why it works:
Context = AI understands your situation
No context = AI guesses and gets it wrong
Add 1 sentence of context. Output quality doubles.

I’ve been contacted by THREE Labour Party whistleblowers, inc. a former frontbencher, + been passed a sensitive Excel spreadsheet by a senior politician in Scotland.
The evidence is clear: Mandelson + McSweeney built a covert network of Labour MPs.
Here’s what they’re hiding:🧵
As Business Secretary, Peter Mandelson passed classified government info to notorious paedophile + likely Israeli intelligence asset Jeffrey Epstein.
But Mandelson had two deputies at the time: David Lammy + Pat McFadden.
Lammy has vehemently defended Mandelson in the past.
Lammy’s failed London mayoral bid was led by future Israeli government spokesman David Mencer, and he has received tens of thousands of pounds from veteran lobbyists Trevor Chinn, Jonathan Goldstein, + Gary Lubner.
What did he know about the Mandelson-Epstein communications?
@soychicka The reason the early 90's is so important is because the USSR collapsed, due to financial wizardry done by the CIAMafia and the KGB. Over a trillion dollars was sucked out of the USSR and deposited in Western banks. The Communist Party collapsed.
Epstein was part of that
@soychicka CIAMafia and got very flush.
I think they then put a plan together to expand the Kompromat capabilities so they could bend American society to their will. This resulted in PNAC, the plan to destroy Muslim societies on Israel's behalf and gain more power over oil/gas.
@soychicka But to make PNAC acceptable to American minds, as they state themselves: "To change American minds towards war in the Middle East, we need a new Pearl Harbor."
And so they did the giant operation called 9/11 - which was an inside job by the CIAMafia, with some assistance by
Final interview.
They ask: “Why are you leaving your current job?”
Your mind blanks.
You say: “My manager is toxic.”
Interview ends. No offer.
Here's what they actually want to hear:
What they’re really asking
Not “Is your manager toxic?”
They’re asking:
- Are you leaving for the right reasons?
- Will you be hard to manage?
- Do you take accountability?
- Are you running from something… or moving toward something?
- Will you bring drama here?
They’re screening for emotional maturity, judgment, and how you handle conflict.
The rule:
Never trash your current job. Even if it’s true.
Because the interviewer hears:
- “They might say this about us later.”
- “They can’t handle feedback.”
- “They escalate instead of navigating.”
- “They’re focused on blame.”

Not the movie version. Not the “they just need to open up” myth.
What actually happens in their brain is very different. 🧵
Avoidant people don’t bond through emotional flooding.
Big talks, intense vulnerability, and pressure to “connect deeper” triggers threat, not love. Their nervous system reads intensity as danger.
Early in life, closeness was unreliable, overwhelming, or costly. So their brain adapted:
• Downregulated oxytocin
• Upregulated cortisol during intimacy
• Strengthened self-reliance circuits
El mercado no se mueve de forma aleatoria; responde a zonas de acumulación y distribución de órdenes. Entender la estructura de soportes y resistencias es la base para una gestión eficiente del capital. Hilo 🧵👇
El soporte es el nivel donde la demanda supera a la oferta. Es el punto donde los compradores intervienen con capital suficiente para detener una tendencia bajista, generando un suelo temporal en la cotización del activo.
La resistencia funciona de forma opuesta. Representa una zona donde la oferta es masiva y agota la presión de compra. El precio retrocede al encontrar un techo técnico donde los participantes prefieren liquidar posiciones.
Quelques remarques sur la réforme du mécanisme de capacité français et un de ses features nouveaux, le prix plafond intermédiaire (PPI), à l'occasion de la délibération de @CRE_energie la semaine prochaine et du passage en CSE des textes d'application d'ici la fin du mois.
Comme chacun sait, le mécanisme de capacité est économiquement une partie intégrante du fonctionnement du marché : comme l'autorité publique souhaite fixer la LOLE (à 3h : voir D141-12-6), il est nécessaire de rémunérer les capacités pour le manque à gagner qui en découle.
En effet, dans un fonctionnement "sans intervention publique", le prix de l'énergie atteindrait en cas de rupture de l'équilibre offre demande des prix arbitrairement hauts (jusqu'à ce que le consentement à se délester des consommateurs joue).
In this 5th Debunk of the Day, we’ll discuss something that sounds great in theory, but was completely turned upside-down by the tankie kind of vatnik: anti-imperialism. More consistent anti-imperialists call this the “anti-imperialism of idiots”. 1/5
“Anti-imperialism” was popularized by Lenin, who saw imperialism as the ultimate stage of capitalism. Ironically, the largest empire is now… Putin’s Russia, proud heir to both Lenin’s Soviet Union and to the Tsarist Empire. 2/5
Indeed, Russia is an empire that is still ruled by a de facto all-powerful Tsar, that still proudly flies its imperial flag, that still dreams of expanding its already huge territory through brutal conquest and colonization. 3/5
🧵 Leisure centre sex crimes are not one-off crimes by ‘Peeping Toms’ chancing their luck in the mixed-sex changing rooms.
Time and again when a male is caught photographing women and children in the cubicle next to him it’s to add to his collection of illicit photographs and films. Leisure centre predators tend to be multiple offenders.
There was national outrage in April 2024 when two men were sentenced to a total of 22 months after being caught with over 6,000 images of women and children taken in leisure centres all over London and the south-east.
This was not an isolated case. As the examples in this thread demonstrate, predatory men are committing tens, hundreds, even thousands, of crimes in mixed-sex changing rooms all over the country. 1/5
In Derbyshire, a police community support officer was caught accessing images of child sexual abuse. When his hard drive was checked the police also found footage of seven children filmed in the family changing village at Queen’s Park Leisure Centre, Chesterfield. Only five of the children have been identified.
The offender pleaded guilty to several counts of voyeurism and to possessing 365 indecent images of the most serious category A. In addition, he admitted to possessing 262 category B and 686 category C images and 179 prohibited images of children. 2/5
In Bath, a 16-year-old girl realised she was being filmed when she noticed a camera under the changing cubicle of the swimming pool at Bath University. A 39-year-old man was apprehended and when police checked his phone they found he had recorded 32 other girls aged 16-18 (six in the swimming pool cubicles). The police have not been able to identify these girls.

1 Un premier bilan peut être tiré de l’année 2025 pour l’économie en #Russie. Voici les informations collectées lors de la 70ème session du Séminaire Franco-Russe (#Fil ou #Thread) qui s’est tenu les 2-4 février 2026
2 La politique dite de « refroidissement dirigé de l’économie » de la Banque Centrale de Russie, caractérisée par des niveaux très élevés du taux directeur nominal (de 22,5% à 16,0%) et du taux réel (10%) a abouti à un fort ralentissement de la croissance en 2025 (1,0%)
3 Les industries « civiles » sont celles qui ont été le plus affectées du fait du ralentissement et même de la contraction de la croissance qui en a résulté. Les investissements ont aussi connu un fort ralentissement de leur croissance
Dzień dobry, Panie Premierze @donaldtusk .
Zacznę trochę staromodnie – od konkretu, aby nie trzeba było przewijać całej strony – a następnie przejdę do szczegółów.
Czy rząd planuje poważne podejście do rozwoju infrastruktury rowerowej w Polsce?
Zacznijmy od danych. Ostatni raport @GrupaPZU pokazuje, że:
19 mln Polaków jeździ na rowerze
80% narzeka na zły stan dróg, 73% na brak "ścieżek", a 64% na złe oświetlenie;
w 2025 r. na polskich drogach doszło do 3429 wypadków z udziałem rowerzystów, w których zginęło 155 osób.
W czasie pandemii COVID-19 Polacy zainwestowali w rowery, także bardzo dobrej, polskiej produkcji. Szybko jednak okazało się, że miejsca, w których można z nich bezpiecznie korzystać, można policzyć na palcach jednej ręki.
Judgement day has arrived and it has potentially historic implications for Scots law and its current "unjustifiable restrictions" to a proper legal remedy in malicious prosecution claims.
Many thanks to all those who have supported this important case.
Worth highlighting this part of the judgement:
“Nothing has been brought to my attention to indicate why, notwithstanding the submission of no case to answer being upheld, it could be said that there was a case fit to try. It therefore appears that in the circumstances...
...the decision of the sheriff to sustain a submission of no case to answer indicates that there was no objective reasonable and probable cause [for bringing a prosecution].” – para [28]
1/ Russian forces in Ukraine are experiencing a devastating loss of connectivity as the Starlink terminals they rely upon are systematically shut off. With Russia's own Starlink alternative years away from implementation, Russian warbloggers say the army is in crisis. ⬇️
2/ The Russian army has, like Ukraine's, become dependent on Starlink for battlefield communications. Unlike Ukraine, it cannot import Starlink terminals legally and has to rely on grey imports activated in third countries.
3/ After Russian UAV makers began installing Starlink in kamikaze UAVs, SpaceX responded by implementing technical measures to disconnect fact-moving terminals and Ukraine began whitelisting its own terminals – with all non-whitelisted terminals being disabled.

Just a few settings most people never check.
Hope this saves you money like it did for me 👇
1. Find the real storage hogs inside Gmail
Go to your Gmail storage breakdown first:
- Visit drive.google.com/settings/stora…
- Check what's using space across Gmail, Drive, and Photos
- Click on "Gmail" to see your biggest culprits
Then in Gmail search bar, type:
- `has:attachment larger:10M` (finds emails over 10MB)
- Sort by size, select multiple, and delete what you don't need
- Try `larger:5M` or `larger:3M` for a more aggressive cleanup
Just clearing big attachments can free gigabytes instantly.

2. Nuke entire categories in bulk
Gmail sorts emails automatically use this to delete fast:
- Search: `category:promotions` (all promo emails)
- Search: `category:social` (Facebook, LinkedIn notifications)
- Search: `category:updates` (receipts, confirmations)
- Click the checkbox → "Select all conversations that match this search"

Court is sitting.
Gerry Moynihan for SM is speaking
GM trans people have the right to live their lives in their acquired gender - that has always had within it the right to be in prisons of the opposite sex. That article 8 right is underpinned by Art 2 - the right to life and
Art 3- the right not to be exposed to degrading treatment.
- see X against Turkey where segregation for a trans prisoner at her own request for her own benefit was ruled against art 3
It is a bit different compared to prior flagship phones from this brand, especially in terms of the overall camera tuning and how solid it feels to hold.
For instance, that continuous periscope telephoto lens (75-100 mm) is truly impressive.
Even though this phone is not perfect, I'd say it has a huge potential.
After using this phone as my daily driver for a month, here's what I think about this phone in detail. 👇
Part 1:
Camera 📸
The strongest part about the Xiaomi 17 Ultra is definitely the photography experience.
Pros:
✅ Incredible overall main camera photography performance, one of the best I've used yet.
✅ The continuous periscope telephoto lens is extremely reliable, and it is among the most powerful out there right now.
✅ I see a huge improvement in detail preservation, noise handling, and highlight control, especially at night.
✅ The new "Scene Card" options are finally here, and you can choose five different scene options here (including true auto/off).
✅ That artistic "Leica-feel" when capturing street photography photos is still there, and I love that style.
✅ Video quality is mostly decent. The level of detail is decent, noise handling is great, and the highlight control is excellent.
✅ The camera app looks nice, pretty user-friendly, and extremely rich in features.
✅ The selfie camera has been improved.
Cons:
🚫 Aspects like white balance, colour tuning (including skin tones), and exposure control are quite unreliable, especially in mixed lighting conditions.
🚫 The minimum focusing distance for the telephoto lens is quite far (~30 cm), so you have to use a higher zoom level to capture macro photos using this lens.
🚫 The video performance is quite underwhelming for a flagship phone. The colour tuning is not reliable, the exposure control is inconsistent, and it is prone to frame-drops.
🚫 The lens-switching transition is bad in the photo mode, and it is not good enough in the video mode.
🚫 It's understandable that they have to compromise the ultra-wide sensor for large primary sensors, but the image processing isn't helping much.
🚫 There's nothing special about its selfie camera, especially for a high-end phone.
Even with its disadvantages, I've never felt this happy when using the auto mode on a Xiaomi phone for taking photos before.
That's why I can comfortably use this phone's camera for photography every day now.
And because of how easy it is to fix some of those existing problems with a software update, its potential is extremely high.
Part 2:
Design & Display 🤳
Pros:
✅ The design has been improved in terms of the look, in-hand feel, and how solid it is compared to prior Xiaomi phones.
✅ The phone's body is thinner now, which contributes to how nice it feels to hold
✅ The green colour is very eye-catching, especially with that starry pattern on the back cover.
✅ An unpopular opinion, but I love the circular volume buttons here. Reminds me of one of those older iPhones.
✅ The bezels are super thin and symmetrical.
✅ The flat display is bigger now, and it looks great. Vibrant, sharp, and visually comfortable, albeit with a downgrade in resolution (1.5K vs 2K).
✅ The display gets extremely bright and that brightness does not throttle easily.
Cons:
🚫 The use of plastic (fibreglass) on the rear side is not what I prefer for a flagship phone.
🚫 The way they designed this phone makes it feel a bit sharp to hold, even when compared to other phones with the same flat edges.
🚫 I don't have a big problem if a phone is heavy on paper, but the 17 Ultra's weight distribution is just not that good.

I've been collecting JSON prompts that actually work in production for months.
Not the theoretical stuff you see in tutorials.
Real prompts that handle edge cases, weird inputs, and don't break when you scale them.
Here are the 12 that changed how I build with LLMs:
1. SCHEMA-FIRST ENFORCEMENT
Instead of: "Return JSON with name and email"
Use this:
"Return ONLY valid JSON matching this exact schema. No markdown, no explanation, no extra fields:
{
"name": "string (required)",
"email": "string (required, valid email format)"
}
Invalid response = failure. Strict mode."
Why it works: LLMs treat schema as hard constraint, not suggestion. 94% fewer malformed responses in my tests.
2. ESCAPE HATCH HANDLING
"If you cannot extract [field], return null for that field. Never skip fields, never add 'N/A' or 'unknown' strings.
Missing data = null value.
Example:
{"name": "John", "phone": null}
NOT: {"name": "John", "phone": "not provided"}"
Saved me from 1000+ string parsing bugs. Your downstream code will thank you.
The BBC reported terrible news last week about polar bears: they are thriving. This is very annoying of them as it goes against the interests of environmental activists, polar bears being the clickbait of climate change cataclysm.
In Svalbard bear numbers have been steadily increasing. Surprisingly, they are also getting fatter, despite a decline in sea-ice cover in the area, especially in autumn. Even more unexpectedly, the bears are fattest in or after years when the sea ice retreats farthest.
The increasing numbers are caused by the fact that bears were hunted for their skins until 1973, after which they were a protected species. But this cannot explain the increase in their girth.

THREAD en 7 étapes :
Etape 1/7 :
Le pétrole abiotique : Mythe ou réalité ?
Le pétrole alimente près de 30 % de l’énergie mondiale et façonne la géopolitique depuis plus d’un siècle. Pourtant, son origine même reste un sujet de débat scientifique et parfois conspirationniste.
Alors : pétrole biogénique et pétrole abiotique (ou abiogénique) Quelles sont les différences et de quoi parle-t-on ?
On fait le point :
D’abord le pétrole biogénique :
Il est communément admis, au sein de la communauté scientifique, que le pétrole provient de la sédimentation et de la transformation progressive de matière organique ancienne. Au fil de dizaines à centaines de millions d’années, les restes de micro-organismes (plancton, algues), de végétaux et parfois d’animaux microscopiques, accumulés au fond des océans, des lacs ou des deltas, sont enfouis, soumis à une pression et une température croissantes. Ce processus, appelé maturation thermique, transforme cette matière organique en kérogène puis en hydrocarbures liquides (pétrole) et gazeux (gaz naturel) au sein de roches-mères sédimentaires. Cette ressource est donc finie et non renouvelable à l’échelle humaine.
Le pétrole abiotique ou abiogénique :
À l’opposé, la théorie abiotique, (ou abiogénique – les deux termes sont synonymes), propose une origine purement minérale pour le pétrole. Bien que marginale, cette hypothèse intrigue encore et nourrit des débats persistants. Selon cette hypothèse alternative, les hydrocarbures se formeraient en profondeur dans la croûte terrestre, voire dans le manteau supérieur, par des réactions chimiques inorganiques impliquant du carbone (sous forme de carbonates ou de carbures métalliques, notamment ferreux), de l’hydrogène et du méthane, sous des températures et pressions extrêmes. Cette théorie postule que le pétrole proviendrait de dépôts profonds de carbone primordial, datant potentiellement de la formation de la Terre, et qu’il pourrait migrer vers la surface via des fissures tectoniques. Certains partisans vont plus loin en affirmant que ce processus chimique serait toujours actif, rendant le pétrole théoriquement renouvelable et beaucoup plus abondant qu’on ne le pense.
Historique de la théorie abiotique :
L’idée abiotique a des racines anciennes (Mendeleïev au XIXe siècle), mais elle a surtout été développée en Union soviétique après la Seconde Guerre mondiale, dans un contexte de crainte de pénurie énergétique. Des géologues comme Nikolai Kudryavtsev et plus tard Vladimir Porfiriev ont défendu cette voie, sans toutefois aboutir à des découvertes commerciales significatives. En Occident, l’astronome Thomas Gold l’a popularisée dans les années 1980-1990 avec son ouvrage « The Deep Hot Biosphere », en s’appuyant notamment sur la présence de méthane sur Titan (lune de Saturne) comme analogue possible d’une formation d’hydrocarbures sans vie. Des expériences de laboratoire ont effectivement montré que du méthane et des hydrocarbures légers peuvent se former abiotiquement dans des conditions mantelliques.
Une théorie restée marginale :
Cependant, la théorie abiotique reste marginale et très contestée. Une revue détaillée publiée en 2006 par Geoffrey P. Glasby (Resource Geology) soulève de nombreuses objections : absence totale de preuve directe d’un pétrole abiotique commercial (c’est-à-dire un mélange liquide d’hydrocarbures à longues chaînes, comme le brut classique) ; teneur abiotique négligeable dans les mélanges extraits (souvent autour de 0,02 % pour les gaz hydrocarbonés) ; échec des forages tests (notamment le projet Siljan en Suède dans les années 1980) ; et incompatibilité avec les biomarqueurs (molécules organiques spécifiques issues du vivant) et les signatures isotopiques systématiquement observées dans les gisements exploités. Des travaux récents (jusqu’en 2025) confirment que, si des processus abiotiques existent pour du méthane ou des traces d’hydrocarbures légers, ils ne contribuent pas de manière significative aux réserves exploitables.
Le consensus biogénique :
Aujourd’hui, la théorie biogénique bénéficie d’un consensus très large (plus de 95 % des géologues et pétroliers selon les synthèses récentes de 2025) : elle est étayée par des décennies de données géochimiques, géologiques et d’exploration industrielle réussie. La controverse abiotique persiste surtout dans des cercles non scientifiques, où elle alimente parfois des thèses conspirationnistes affirmant que le pétrole serait « infini » mais caché par des intérêts économiques ou écologiques.
Etape 2/7
Du concept du pétrole abiotique à la mutation en théorie conspirationniste.
Le passage d’une hypothèse scientifique marginale à un récit conspirationniste s’est fait progressivement, en s’appuyant sur les travaux historiques soviétiques (années 1950-1980) et la popularisation par Thomas Gold dans les années 1990. Il est difficile de dater précisément cette bascule dans le complotisme grand public, mais elle semble émerger surtout à partir des années 2000, via plusieurs auteurs indépendants qui reprennent sélectivement ces références « historiques » sans en rappeler le contexte ni les limites.
Les arguments conspirationnistes les plus récurrents se structurent autour de trois axes :
La rareté orchestrée : Les compagnies pétrolières, les gouvernements et parfois des institutions internationales cacheraient l’origine abiotique pour entretenir une pénurie artificielle, justifier des prix élevés et alimenter le narratif du « peak oil » comme outil de contrôle économique et géopolitique.
L'abondance infinie : Si le pétrole se forme en continu par des processus minéraux profonds (et non par la lente décomposition de biomasse ancienne), il serait virtuellement inépuisable. Cette idée séduit dans un contexte de transition énergétique : pourquoi abandonner une ressource « produite par la Terre elle-même » au profit d’énergies intermittentes ou coûteuses ?
Le rejet du consensus : Le fait que la communauté scientifique (plus de 95 % des géologues et experts pétroliers) rejette l’hypothèse abiotique pour les gisements commerciaux est vu non comme le résultat de preuves convergentes (biomarqueurs, signatures isotopiques, localisation géologique, échecs comme Siljan), mais comme une censure orchestrée par des lobbies ou des idéologies écologistes. Même si des études publiées en 2025-2026 confirment la synthèse abiotique possible de traces d’hydrocarbures (surtout méthane et légers) en profondeur, elles soulignent systématiquement leur contribution négligeable aux réserves exploitables – ce qui renforce au contraire le consensus biogénique dominant.
La diffusion des théories modernes : Ces récits ont gagné en visibilité avec Internet, les forums alternatifs, les chaînes YouTube sur l’énergie ou les théories marginales, et parfois des discours politiques ou médiatiques dans des sphères contestataires (par exemple, certains milieux soraliens en France, ou des figures climatosceptiques ailleurs). Le climatoscepticisme joue souvent un rôle de catalyseur : nier la finitude des fossiles permet de contester les politiques de décarbonation.
Ne pas tomber dans le piège :
Les promoteurs conspirationnistes citent volontiers Mendeleïev, les Soviétiques ou Gold, mais omettent presque toujours les contre-preuves accumulées (biomarqueurs organiques systématiques, absence de rechargement significatif des gisements, échecs d’exploration abiotique). Cette sélection biaisée rend l’argument séduisant au premier abord, mais fragile dès qu’on consulte les sources primaires. Soyez attentifs : vérifiez les références complètes, les revues par les pairs et le consensus large de la géochimie pétrolière !
En conclusion :
• Le consensus scientifique actuel est clair et très majoritaire : l’existence d’un pétrole abiotique en quantités commercialisables n’a jamais été prouvée. Si de très petites quantités de méthane (et parfois d’hydrocarbures légers) peuvent être d’origine abiogénique, elles restent négligeables et ne remettent pas en cause l’origine biologique dominante des grands gisements.
• Cette théorie marginale persiste d’une part par une peur légitime du « peak oil » et de la dépendance énergétique, mais surtout grâce à la désinformation en ligne, amplifiée par l’héritage des recherches soviétiques/russes – parfois instrumentalisé dans des contextes géopolitiques (ex. discours sur l’abondance pour contrer les sanctions ou la transition).
• Même si des processus abiogéniques existent en traces, leur formation est extrêmement lente et leur extraction (à des profondeurs souvent > 100 km) très complexe et coûteuse. Au final, cela ne change rien à la réalité : les hydrocarbures fossiles ne sont pas renouvelables à l’échelle humaine, et ces débats ne font que souligner l’urgence d’une transition énergétique vers des sources plus durables.
• Gardons l’esprit critique face à ces théories parfois frauduleuses ou obscurantistes, motivées par des intérêts politiques, économiques ou idéologiques. Les sources scientifiques fiables sont nombreuses, accessibles et d’excellente qualité (publications par les pairs, synthèses d’organismes comme l’USGS, l’AAPG ou l’IFPEN). Ne nous laissons pas embarquer : la méthode scientifique repose sur des preuves testables, pas sur des affirmations séduisantes mais non étayées.

Movimento de Cauda: Stress em Momentum e Tech

Um resultado abaixo do esperado da AMD (-16% no dia), empresa diretamente ligada ao setor de tecnologia e à tese de Inteligência Artificial, acabou servindo como gatilho para uma correção mais ampla nas ações associadas a esse tema.
Esses papéis apresentaram forte valorização nos últimos meses, passaram a operar com valuations elevados em relação aos seus padrões históricos e, em diversos casos, com níveis crescentes de investimento e capex. Nesse contexto, a margem de erro para surpresas negativas tornou-se bastante reduzida. Ao que tudo indica, atravessamos mais um período em que o mercado passa a reavaliar, de forma mais crítica, a magnitude e o timing do retorno econômico da IA para determinadas empresas.
O setor de Tecnologia está atualmente passando pela quarta correção superior a -10% desde 2023.
Os últimos dias e, em especial, ontem, vimos movimentos "por debaixo da superfície" que foram extremamente relevantes para os padrões históricos e podem ter afetado negativamente diversos agentes de mercado.
Por exemplo, tivemos o 4º pior movimento diário (em termos percentuais) de momentum versus value desde 1999, usando as long baskets da Morgan Stanley. Momentum caiu forte, enquanto value subiu de forma relevante.

Eine aktuelle Studie hat nachgezählt: 110 von 575 Verwaltungsleistungen sind online.
59 % der Deutschen haben noch nie einen digitalen Verwaltungsdienst genutzt.
39 % sagen: Den Dienst, den ich brauche, gibt es nicht.
Nur 15 % haben je einen vollständig digitalen Ablauf erlebt.
Das ist kein Akzeptanzproblem. Das ist ein Angebotsproblem

Und selbst die 110 sind geschönt. Dreifach.
Erstens: Die 575 sind keine Einzelleistungen. Der Leistungskatalog zählt über 6.000 Verwaltungsleistungen – zusammengefasst zu 575 Bündeln. Ein Bündel kann hunderte Einzelleistungen enthalten. 110 von 575 klingt nach 19 %. Die echte Quote ist dramatisch niedriger.
Zweitens: Ein Bündel gilt als „online", sobald eine einzige Leistung in einer einzigen Kommune beantragt werden kann. Führerschein: 20 Leistungen, 5 digital – gilt als „digitalisiert". Du kannst dich in Augsburg ummelden? Klasse, damit gilt die Leistung in ganz Bayern als "online".
Drittens: Das Dashboard prüft nicht, ob dahinter ein Service steckt. Es prüft nur, ob eine Kommune sich zugeordnet hat. Was der Bürger findet, ist oft ein PDF zum Ausdrucken.

1. Market Analysis
“Analyze the current stock market environment with a focus on [specific stock or sector]. Identify short-term and long-term trends, key support and resistance levels, and any emerging patterns. Factor in recent earnings, macroeconomic news, and industry developments, then suggest potential investment or trading opportunities.”
2. Portfolio Diversification
“I currently hold a portfolio consisting of [list stocks/sectors]. Evaluate my concentration risk and suggest ways to diversify further while maintaining balanced returns. Recommend new sectors, asset classes, or specific stocks, and explain how each addition reduces overall portfolio risk.”

A short 🧵
Shanghai's GDP grew by 5.4% last year, to 5.6 trillion yuan (about $US$814 billion).
The city's GDP growth outperformed the country's national average of 5%, reflecting resilience in services, advanced manufacturing, high-tech sectors, and infrastructure investment.
The city's research and development spending totaled 4.5% of Shanghai's GDP.
As a comparison, New York typically spends 2.5–3.5%, while London sits around 2-3%.
I have been interviewing a number of regional military experts on significance of Turkey's deployment of three F-16 Vipers in Somalia and here is the gist of the broad consensus:
💠F-16s are powerful tools designed for sophisticated, conventional conflict. Lethal in degrading static enemy frontlines, assets, defences, installations. In rural and urban asymmetric warfare, where there is no fixed frontline, their efficacy 'highly circumscribed.' F-16s are labour intensive, medium-range, require more fuel, special runways. One expert says drones are cheaper, perhaps more effective and versatile than F-16s in the type of guerilla warfare now raging in Somalia.
💠As tools for interdicting unauthorised aircraft/deter airspace intrusion they could be effective, and are specially designed for 'dog fights.' But 3 F-16s cannot effectively police a large airspace, and even less enforce a 'no-fly zone.' That would require a larger fleet, a network of runways and logistical hubs to repair, refit, refuel, in addition to greater manpower.
💠The main purpose for the deployment of the F-16s is to respond quickly to specific conventional ground and aerial threats against specific strategic/key installations, troop positions. In tandem with helicopter gunships, F-16s can deliver massive kinetic force and with extraordinary speed.
