How policy making a place to be protected, is actually making it more vulnerable. Good reads how MPA is killing coral reefs in silence. https://t.co/bKH4ggupUU

Bila kita lihat sejarah, tempoh empayar kuasa besar berkuasa di dunia.

• Empayar Uthmaniyyah – 623 tahun
• Dinasti Joseon – 505 tahun
• Empayar Mughal India– 331 tahun
• Dinasti Song – 319 tahun
• Empayar British – ±300 tahun
• Dinasti Ming – 276 tahun
• Amerika Syarikat – ±250 tahun
• Empayar Mongol – 162 tahun

Kita dapat gambaran, timeline kita hidup sekarang, cuma cebisan kecil dari satu tamadun manusia moden.

Semua yang berlaku itu, semuanya berada dalam pengetahuan Allah.

Perang yang berlaku sekarang dan konflik sepanjang 60-70 tahun lepas, ketidakadilan dan kezaliman yang berlaku, ketidakseimbangan kuasa, semua tu ujian bagi mereka yang hidup zaman ini.

Empayar Uthmaniyyah, ketika mereka dah 300 tahun berkuasa, mesti tak pernah sangka satu hari nanti akan berkubur.

300 tahun tahun lagi, mungkin kuasa dunia berubah dan diluar jangkaan kita sekarang. Dengan populasi negara maju berkurang drastik (negara tua), itu je dah jadi satu penyebab negara tersebut akan berbeza 50-100 tahun akan datang.

Maksudnya, tak perlu risau sangat dunia ni secara keterlaluan. Hayat hidup kita yang tak sampai 75 tahun ni perlu dirisaukan kalau mati dalam tidak beriman, banyak dosa dan masuk neraka dan kekal selamanya. Nauzubillah.

Kita doa yang terbaik untuk penduduk negara yang tidak bersalah yang dizalimi. Tapi percayalah, semua tu dalam pengetahuan Allah dan ada balasan untuk mereka semua di akhirat.

Itu sudut pandang yang semua muslim kena ada bila rasa helpless dengan keadaan dunia ni.

Perbaiki apa yang ada dalam kawalan kita.

@malcomditengah @zulazri03 Meh betulkan: Hak parents minta dari anak lelaki untuk cukupkan keperluan harian. Kalau makpak mampu sendiri, takda hak. Bukan sesuka hati.

Should coral taxonomy rely on expert field observations alone, or genetic and genomic data take the lead?
I think no, because it risks confusing phenotypic plasticity, and it is problematic for conservation science. https://t.co/sLJIq1NsEK

"Top climate scientists are sceptical that nations will rein in global warming"

This news undoubtedly confirms what the future of climate change holds. Scientists are not imagining climate change; it is happening now. If you observe your surroundings!

What is your opinion on using AI to write or review scientific articles? There are two broad categories: using AI to improve or generate. For me, both are fine, but the latter must have been done critically https://t.co/XEkyPOlQiz
