From outer to inner space
Hotter is better for geothermal power. But the electronics needed to drill directional wells dies above 200°C

Leveraging extreme space exploration technology, Hephae will double the efficiency of geothermal and make it cheaper than natural gas by going hotter and deeper.

Geothermal offers 24/7 carbon-free energy, and by tapping just 1% of the world’s super-hot rock, we could generate 8x the world’s electricity needs for many centuries.

@IdaAuken Jeg glæder mig til at snakke geotermisk strøm med dig en dag :-) og jo også lidt om udfordringerne med vind når vinden ikke blæser

[Jenny Fielding @jefielding]

I interviewed 12 very successful founders about how they developed leadership skills? The answers surprised me…Nope, not HBS, McKinsey or training programs.

The answer was that they had to organize volunteers at a young age. Some led church groups, student orgs, local activism, science fairs or local sports teams. All had to get other people to do things without any real authority and no comp.

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

Women make up half of our population but women’s health research has been understudied and underfunded.

That’s why I’m signing an Executive Order to ensure women’s health is prioritized across the federal research portfolio and budget.

OMG fake women conference speakers, that's some next level diversity washing! (via @halletecco)

[Gergely Orosz @GergelyOrosz]

Which conference?

Well, where Anna Boyko, Staff engineer at Coinbase and Ethereum core contributor is a speaker.

Her. She doesn’t exist. Except as a listed speaker at a prominent online conference!

BREAKING

Preben Bang oplyser til @PernilleVermund , at man kan brænde en koran trykt af et ikke godkendt islamisk trossamfund

Smuthul som regeringen ikke har spottet. Og desuden træls for @Politiforbundet

For hvem ved hvilke islamiske organisationer, der er godkendt?
