Anti-science activism never went away, it got a new ugly face in the #information age:
Quacks, gurus, contrarian doctors, fake experts, influencers, political commentators and similar media manipulators.
Previously we looked at "merchants of #doubt"

Today, we take a look at the "merchants of #ambiguity"
Their overarching goal is to create the perception that scientific issues are either eternally #unresolved or that #alternative interpretations are just as plausible or likely.

1/ 🌟 Recently, I offered advice to a founder about keeping momentum during an intense work week with long offsite commitments. Thought I'd share our conversation for those in similar situations! #Productivity #Leadership
2/ 💪 This founder was looking for ways to maintain momentum, and I shared a lesson from my gym routine: when you're sick or have limited capacity, modify your activities to fit that capacity, but still honor the commitment. #Commitment #Adaptability
3/ 🕒 The founder also considered spending an hour or two before the offsite working and bringing a personal laptop to sneak in work during breaks. Great ideas! #TimeManagement #WorkSmart
4/ ⏰ Lastly, I emphasized the importance of increasing urgency.

Anlässlich der Debatte um das 🇪🇺#Verbrenner"verbot", die von 🇩🇪 jetzt auch nach 🇦🇹 schwappt, hier etwas Hintergrund zum optimalen #policy #mix, wenn es darum geht, den technologischen Fortschritt in eine #CO2-freie Richtung zu lenken, aus umweltökonomischer Sicht 1/
1. Instrument der Wahl ist i.d. Theorie eine umfassende #CO2-Bepreisung in angemessener Höhe (z.B. = #Schadenskosten) mit sozial ausgewogener #Rückvergütung: CO2-Preis korrigiert fehlenden Preis für Umweltgüter, der #fossile Kraftstoffe zu günstig macht 2/
Aber i.d. Realität lässt sich ein angemessen hoher CO2-Preis nicht überall umsetzen: Weil a) der ökonomisch #perfekte Markt nicht existiert (weitere #Marktversagen), und b) sich aus #sozialen Gründen im Gebäude- und Verkehrsbereich keine so hohen CO2-Preise durchsetzen lassen 3/
Today we’ll hear the draft recommendations from a group of 36 everyday Ontarians about how to make the #primarycare system better
They were randomly selected from 1250 who volunteered
They’ve spent 40+ hrs learning from experts and each other
What’s been in the curriculum?

@AndrewDPinto @snewbery1 @DrFitzsimon and F Garwe on equitable access
And myself on models of care from other countries

1/15 We are the underdogs. And that's your opportunity on #egld.
An underdog strategy involves a small and, usually, young firm taking on a much larger competitor into a challenge with much bigger opponents in order to break their monopoly. 100% DEFI and DAO on @MultiversX

2/15 That's our promise to you all: FREEDOM not the illusion of freedom. And here it is why and how:
3/15 There is a monopoly on @MultiversX and we are offering a secondary option truly DEFI & DAO where people can choose to earn 50% of anything we do. If the monopoly is Coca-Cola, we are Pepsi - because we love #pepsi more anyway.

His basic details and his outlier.His basic details and his outlier.
So we spoke about Viniciao : his la liga numbers, his Flamengo story with JJ, journey to lommel. But the most important part, the kind of player he is and his features are untouched. And thus why how he is suited to barca above his unreal def' numbers.

Chinese military's Eastern Command announces military drills around Taiwan will continue indefinitely (for now).
One possible explanation is "faux Escalate to Deescalate".
i.e. Feign strength, to provide cover for gradual 'redirection' away from the theater, i.e. deescalate. /1

China's military drills has potentially generated 2 effects that Beijing dislikes:
1. 'Broken window effect':
Other countries are considering more high level visits to Taiwan -- in a show of solidarity, e.g. Lithuania. See:

Even multilateral vehicles like @ASEAN Foreign Ministers Meeting - which had largely refrained from critical commentaries on China-Taiwan relations - was spurred into issuing a statement of concern on 8/3, and further 'internationalizes' Taiwan issue. /3

What may happen to a child recruited or used by an armed force or armed group?
❗️Physical harm
❗️Sexual abuse
❗️Mental and psychological harm
❗️Family separation
❗️Detention
❗️Lack of education
❗️Compromised future
No children should be subject to this.

This year, we mark the 15th anniversary of the #ParisPrinciples on recruitment of children into armed forces or armed groups.
These Principles and Commitments are a crucial to protect children in situations of armed conflict, and complement international law.
These Principles and Commitments are a crucial to protect children in situations of armed conflict, and complement international law.
As 112 states and numerous #humanitarian organizations take leadership on this critical issue, we call for more States to endorse and implement the #ParisPrinciples and Commitments.
This will help in reducing child recruitment and support children’s reintegration into society.

Everyone’s trying to sell you something, or take something off you, or get you to do something.
Everyone’s out for themselves.
No one can be trusted.
People are greedy.
People are lazy.
It’s a dog-eat-dog world.
That’s how I sometimes feel.

But it’s far from the truth, isn’t it?
These are just the lies we’re being told – or it’s people behaving that way because of the lies they’ve been told.

Our media is our enemy – and much of our schooling too.
We’re victims of cognitive imperialism – and the invading empire has established its outposts in the hinterlands of our minds.

You will notice the first half of this scripture refers to all kinds of #prayers (Moffatt's translation - "all manner", Berean Study Bible - "every kind of prayer"). That lets you know there are certainly different types of #prayer which may be used in different situations.
