[Dr. 'Bosun Tijani @bosuntijani]

I want to help raise a new generation of people in Africa with creative confidence and lifelong interest in science and tech. The folks that will take all we've done to a whole new level. Watch @STEM_Cafe feature on @CNNAfrica Inside Africa.

J'ai filmé à Tchernobyl et Fukushima. Comment peut on encore CROIRE ( il s'agit bien d'une croyance techniciste) que le nucléaire est une solution pour le climat? Le Danemark qui n'a aucun réacteur couvre 75% de ses besoins en électricité avec les renouvelables. #Frankenstein

Sure, Blake Griffin might have been a "stinker" this year — but he's MY stinker and I love him.

I scraped @bball_ref to see which NBA contracts were the most over- and undervalued in the shortened, pre-bubble NBA season in my latest for @FiveThirtyEight.

How can we return to some kind of economic/ecological balance when this is all over?

[KWS FORUM @KWSFORUM]
