It is a time of nightmares. We must wake up. Nothing revolutionary in this article, but I appreciate the common thread...

Peter Thiel, for one, once revealed that his three best ideas for achieving true freedom are “cyberspace”, “outerspace” and “seasteading” (the idea of building new countries on floating oil rigs).

Projected Spatial Asymmetry of Daytime and Nighttime Temperature Extremes in the Middle East under CMIP6 Warming Fig. 5 Spatial clustering of day–night asymmetry in projected temperature extremes during summer (JJA) under SSP5-8.5 for 2075–2100. Panels show Getis–Ord Gi* clusters for (a) A90 and (b) Amax. A central implication of the analysis is that future heat change should not be interpreted only through regional mean warming or through direct numerical comparison among indices with diff...
