Forget billionaire data centers. The most sophisticated information system we know of is inside you. DNA uses just four chemical letters to encode instructions for building and running a human body, from your eye color and heartbeat to your senses and brain. #science #biology #datacenters #nature

Cabbage White, Small White (Pieris rapae). Originally from Eurasia and North Africa, they've been introduced around the world. The caterpillars eat mostly plants in the mustard family, such as garden vegetables like cabbage, broccoli, kale, radish, and cauliflower, along with wild mustards. Specific plant compounds in these leaves trigger their feeding. #butterflies #insects #wildlife #photo #biology #nature

I guess illegal clear-cutting and national outrage are just standard price tags for keeping the world's algorithms running now. 😖🌲 #environment #google #ecology #ai #datacenters #tech

A Piping Plover parent is hiding its tiny, fluffy chicks beneath its wings among the sand dunes. Their sandy coloring helps them blend into the beach. And if a predator gets too close, the parent may perform a broken-wing act to draw danger away from its young. I’ve witnessed this, it’s a cool adaptation. #birds #wildlife #ecology #nature #evolution

If you were wondering why Musk has spent more than $366 million to help Republicans keep the Senate and the House, look no further: He is dead scared that his crimes will be investigated.

His response to the news that Democrats will also investigate his throttling of Ukrainian Starlink access on top of everything DOGE is: “Live by the sword, die by the sword [I will] come for them”.

Threatening lawmakers with retribution if they investigate your crimes would work in Russia. Not in the US.

Democracies are not actually 'free', or even democratic, as long as the C-suite continues to decide that they cannot return to their workers a proportion of the value theworkers created that allows those workers to live without financial stress.
The rent is too high
The health insurance is unaffordable
The grocery item price has soared, so it goes back on the shelf
A car breakdown is a massive financial disaster.

The entire house of cards is unsustainable.

That’s because your brain doesn’t read every letter one by one. It uses familiar patterns, sentence context and predictions about what comes next to fill in the gaps.
