For the first time in recorded history, the Niño 3.4 sea-surface temperature (SST) is above 30.0°C, reaching a preliminary SST of 30.06°C on October 5th.

The Niño 3.4 SST anomaly is now 3.41°C above the 1991-2020 baseline.

Everything is not fine.

Today in 🤯 science: A team led by @Sergiu_P_Pasca engineered mice to be missing a large swath of their brains. Next, they transplanted human brain organoids, which grew and filled in the void. They're still mice, but with a human-dominated cortex. https://t.co/LWT5IwR01F

This is where use of AI writing in published academic papers has increased the most and the least, according to a new study. They tracked the prevalence of words that AI tends to use more than humans, like "juncture" and "delves."

[Jack @jackcoder0]

Two economists just published a mathematical proof that AI will destroy the economy.

Not might. Not could. Will — if nothing changes.

The paper is called "The AI Layoff Trap." Published March 2, 2026. Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania. Boston University. Peer reviewed. Mathematically modeled.
The conclusion is one sentence.
"At the limit, firms automate their way to boundless productivity and zero demand."

An economy that produces everything. And sells it to nobody.
Here is how you get there.
A company fires 500 workers and replaces them with AI. A competitor fires 700 to keep up. Another fires 1,000. Every company is behaving rationally. Every company is following the incentives correctly. And every company is building a trap for itself.

Because the workers who were fired were also customers.
When they lose their jobs faster than the economy can absorb them, they stop spending. Consumer demand falls. Companies respond by cutting costs — which means automating more workers — which means less spending — which means more falling demand — which means more automation.

The loop has no natural exit.
The researchers tested every proposed solution. Universal basic income. Capital income taxes. Worker equity participation. Upskilling programs. Corporate coordination agreements.
Every single one failed in the model.
The only intervention that worked: a Pigouvian automation tax — a per-task levy charged every time a company replaces a human with AI, forcing them to price in the demand they are destroying before they pull the trigger.

No government has implemented this. No major economy is seriously discussing it.
Meanwhile the numbers are already tracking the curve. 100,000 tech workers laid off in 2025. 92,000 more in the first months of 2026. Jack Dorsey fired half of Block's workforce and said publicly: "Within the next year, the majority of companies will reach the same conclusion."
Nobody is doing anything wrong. Companies are following their incentives perfectly. That is exactly the problem.

Rational behavior. At scale. Simultaneously. With no mechanism to stop it.
Two economists built the math. The math leads to one place.

Hoy, entre los bienes que están destinados universalmente a todos, debemos incluir también las nuevas formas de propiedad: patentes, algoritmos, plataformas digitales, infraestructuras tecnológicas, datos. En un contexto en el que la riqueza de las naciones depende cada vez más de conocimientos y tecnologías, cuando estos bienes quedan concentrados en las manos de unos pocos, sin adecuadas formas de compartición y de acceso, se crea una nueva brecha entre quienes pueden participar en la revolución digital y quienes permanecen al margen. #MagnificaHumanitas

Cuando @TheEconomist se vuelve progresista es que la amenaza de la IA es real:

-Impuestos al capital, las ganancias y las herencias;
-Seguros de desempleo masivo;
-Salario básico universal;
-Participación pública en las grandes empresas tecnológicas.

La disrupción es inminente.

Fascinating uncovering of the dark matter of the microbial world.

[Science Magazine @ScienceMagazine]

For decades, biology textbooks have enshrined a simple rule: DNA is made by copying a template. After one enzyme unzips a DNA double helix into separate strands, another called a polymerase builds a complementary sequence, base by base, for each strand. Presto: two copies of the original DNA.

But new research into how bacteria defend themselves from viruses now shows this synthesis rule isn’t absolute.

Now, a team describes a bacterial enzyme that synthesizes DNA without a nucleic acid template, using its own structure as a guide.
