We compared land transport options for getting to net zero. Hands down, electric rail is the best
The only way to reduce soaring transport emissions is to shift as much travel as possible to the lowest-emission option.The Conversation

TikTok está lleno de contenido extremista y eso es un problema serio
El algoritmo de TikTok no solo fomenta el contenido neonazi, sino que las organizaciones extremistas también aprovechan la plataforma para reclutar nuevos miembros e incitar a la acción en el mundo real
tuve ese problema el principio de empezar a usar Tiktok. Constantemente me enviaba a directos o contenidos de perfiles franquistas y demás.
Me costó un poco poner en vereda al algoritmo, a base de "no me interesa" y denuncias concretas. Tras ello sí mejoró bastante. Obtengo contenido más social y relacionado a mis gustos.
Veo un problema en personas con poco criterio o edad. Un bombardeo constante de esa basura, puede atraparlos en burbujas de negacionismo, clasismo y xenofobia

I can count on one hand the number of my clients over the past couple of years who haven't either over-architected for scale or were unnecessarily concerned about it (prior to coming to me for strategic advice, of course 😉).
You don't need to understand Distributional Little's Law to figure this out, it's obvious with primary school level math.

BINGO! THIS!
My masters degree in the 1980s was in part about this. The problem is, if you aren't willing to listen to a woman about what the future can hold, then you aren't ready for a genuinely better future.

I'm not surprised by the growing inequality in sci-fi, because there has been growing inequality since the 1950's!
I mean, growing inequality among white men in the USA (and west in general), of course.
Add to that, the fact that publishing has gotten less anti-diverse, then it's just sensible that there is more recognition of inequality since the 1950s.
The complete lack of any mention or analysis of the gender/race/sexuality of the authors or characters is telling.
They say that "dystopia" is just when what happens to most of us happens to white dudes. Well, back in the 1950s if you wanted to tell a story that wasn't about white dudes, you got pulped (see Far Beyond the Stars).
Is it good to also have stories that imagine a better future? Sure. But the trends in sci-fi since the 1950s is more just a matter of some lifting of the blinders of 1950s censorship, as well as increasing inequality since Reaganomics.
