🇨🇭 In Switzerland, people literally swim home after work
In Bern, after a long day, locals pack their clothes into waterproof bags, jump into the Aare River, and just let the current carry them almost all the way home.
This floating commute has become a beloved local tradition — and those special dry bags are now a summer symbol of Bern.
Be honest… would you commute like this? 😄
Impressed to witness #LockedShields, led by @ccdcoe with 41 nations.
Cyber resilience goes beyond borders - it requires constant learning and sharing best practices. Estonia has known this since 2007.
A strong example of government, private sector, and academia working together. The same model is behind Estonia’s digital success.
Tesla is officially launching in Estonia.
The company is holding an opening event on April 24th at Ülemiste Center
"Bring your friends and family to see our models, take part in the day’s activities and test drives. We will also be showcasing the Cybertruck for the first time in Estonia."

NASA pays $100M for Microsoft 365 licensing across the agency. They standardized every system on Microsoft. They put Microsoft Surfaces on the Orion spacecraft as the crew's personal computing devices.
And the first technical crisis of humanity's return to the Moon was Reid Wiseman radioing Houston to say he has two Microsoft Outlooks and neither one works.
Mission Control's response? "With your go, we can remote in and take a look." The same exact workflow your company's IT helpdesk uses when you submit a ticket on a Monday morning. Except the user is traveling at 4,275 mph, 30,000 miles from Earth, and the Wi-Fi situation is considerably worse.
This spacecraft survived hydrogen leaks, helium leaks, a faulty heat shield, and a broken toilet. Outlook broke anyway. The toilet actually got fixed faster.
The real story here is that Microsoft has achieved something no other software company in history can claim: a support ticket from lunar transit. Their enterprise sales team should frame this. "Battle-tested in space" is a positioning statement most B2B companies would mass murder for, and Microsoft accidentally earned it because Outlook crashes everywhere, including orbit.
Outlook remains the only software in human history that performs identically whether you're in a cubicle in Redmond or aboard a spacecraft bound for the Moon. Universally, reliably broken. And we keep buying it anyway.
NEWS: Amazon’s internal AI coding assistant determined the engineers’ existing code was inadequate so it deleted it to start from scratch.
Parts of AWS were down for 13 hours as a result.

🇪🇺🇺🇸 Europe is starting to replace US tech companies with domestic ones - EU parliament resolution
Europe is pushing for digital sovereignty to reduce its heavy dependence on US tech giants.
US providers like AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud dominate over 70–80% of Europe's cloud and digital infrastructure market.
Recent EU efforts include a January 2026 European Parliament resolution calling for prioritising non-US options in public procurement, building a "Eurostack"
🚨BREAKING Chinese satellite came within ~200 meters of a SpaceX Starlink satellite days after launch
SpaceX warned poor coordination and data sharing is dangerous with ~13,000 satellites in orbit, ~9,300 from Starlink
CAS Space says avoidance systems are only pre launch, the incident happened after deployment, and more cooperation is needed to avoid collisions and space debris
NEURALINK’S FIRST PATIENT SPARKS FOR NEXT STEP TO PHYSICAL RESTORATION
Noland Arbaugh is fired up for a second Neuralink implant - this one aims at movement, not just digital control!
Anticipation:
• Second chip planned to bypass damaged spinal signals
• Routing brain activity straight to muscle
• From hands-free computing to real-world motion
• A pathway to restoring limb control
Amped with hope, he's practically sparking for what's next - and Neuralink is running on hype for a reason!

Scientists discovered the world’s largest spiderweb, covering 106 m² in a sulfur cave on the Albania-Greece border.
Over 111,000 spiders from two normally rival species live together in a unique, self-sustaining ecosystem—a first of its kind.
🚨BREAKING: Apple is talking with SpaceX to add Starlink to iPhone 18 Pro in 2026.
This could replace Globalstar and bring Starlink internet straight to iPhones.

AI JUST GENERATED NEW SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE
Google and Yale used a 27B Gemma model and it discovered a new cancer mechanism.
it predicted a drug (silmitasertib) would only make tumors visible to the immune system if low interferon was present and lab tests confirmed it
AI made a new biological hypothesis, and it was right.
how’s this not AGI?
Nanotechnology successfully combats Alzheimer's disease!
Scientists have created tiny nanoparticles that can actually reverse Alzheimer’s symptoms in mice. These particles repair the brain’s protective barrier and help clear out harmful proteins linked to the disease. After treatment, older mice started to think and behave like young, healthy ones again - giving new hope that a similar approach could also work in humans!
BREAKING⚡️🇩🇪🇪🇺
Germany just struck Lithium gold, one of the largest lithium deposits on Earth was found underground in Saxony, Germany.
This may change everything.
European electric cars can now be truly European. No more begging China. No more Silicon Valley middlemen.
Time to scale. Time to build.
Elon, better start learning German.
