In den Ländern, die sich in Paris 2015 einer Initiative gegen das Verbrennen von nicht genutztem Erdgas (flaring) angeschlossen hatten, wird das Verbrennen mit offener Flamme oft nur durch Verbrennung in geschlossenen Anlagen ersetzt, wie eine investigative journalistische Recherche ergab. Die Menge der Emissionen sinkt dadurch nicht wesentlich, aber diese Anlagen sind für Satelliten nicht äußerlich erkennbar. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2024/may/02/methane-emissions-gas-flaring-hidden-satellite-monitors-oil-gas

Interview mit Hannah Ritchie zu ihrem Buch "Not the End of the World". Richie betont, das technische Lösungen vorhanden sind, um die globale Erhitzung zu stoppen. Wissen um diese Lösungen und bereits erzielte Erfolge erleichtere das Engagement, während Pessimismus lähmend sei. https://www.derstandard.de/story/3000000202689/klimaexpertin-ritchie-vieles-bewegt-sich-in-die-richtige-richtung

  • We lived in a relatively unregulated digital world until now.
  • It was great until the public realized that a few companies wield too much power today in our lives.
  • We will see significant changes in areas like
    • privacy,
    • data protection,
    • algorithm and
    • architecture design guidelines, and
    • platform accountability, etc.
  • which should reduce the pervasiveness of
    • misinformation,
    • hate and visceral content
  • over the internet.
  • These steps will also reduce the power wielded by digital giants.
  • Beyond these immediate effects, it is difficult to say if these social innovations will create a more participative and healthy society.
  • These broader effects are driven by deeper underlying factors, like
    • history,
    • diversity,
    • cohesiveness and
    • social capital, and also
    • political climate and
    • institutions.
  • In other words,
    • just as digital world is shaping the physical world,
    • physical world shapes our digital world as well.

Deepti Gurdasani. (2022, January 10). Lots of people dismissing links between COVID-19 and all-cause diabetes. An association that’s been shown in multiple studies- whether this increase is due to more diabetes or SARS2 precipitating diabetic keto-acidosis allowing these to be diagnosed is not known. A brief look👇 [Tweet]. @dgurdasani1. https://twitter.com/dgurdasani1/status/1480546865812840450

big data solutions for cardiovascular and oncological research.

That’s something we’ve been doing, yes.

Among the most useful summaries I have found for Linked Data, generally, and in relationship to libraries, specifically. After first reading it, got to hear of the acronym LODLAM: “Linked Open Data for Libraries, Archives, and Museums”. Been finding uses for this tag, in no small part because it gets people to think about the connections between diverse knowledge-focused institutions, places where knowledge is constructed. Somewhat surprised academia, universities, colleges, institutes, or educational organisations like schools aren’t explicitly tied to those others. In fact, it’s quite remarkable that education tends to drive much development in #OpenData, as opposed to municipal or federal governments, for instance. But it’s still very interesting to think about Libraries and Museums as moving from a focus on (a Web of) documents to a focus on (a Web of) data.
