Das Interview der taz mit Olaf Scholz zeigt, dass für die Bundesregierung nach wie vor das weitere Wachstum der Wirtschaft Priorität vor dem Klimaschutz hat, und dass es dabei vor allem darum geht den Wirtschaftsstandort Deutschland so zu sichern, wie er jetzt gerade funktioniert. Einsparen von Energie hat dabei keine Priorität. Scholz spricht sich für eine Steigerung der Stromproduktion durch Erneuerbare aus und fordert 3-4 neue Windräder pro Tag.

Die US-Regierung erlaubt Chevron, in zusätzliche Ölförderungen in Venezuela zu investieren. Die Entscheidung ist Teil einer auch geopolitsch motivierten beginnenden Umorientierung der amerikanischen Venezuela-Politik. Anfallende Lizenzgebühren müssen zur Tilgung von venezolanischen Regierungsschulden verwendet werden. Eine Aufhebung der bestehenden Sanktionen könnte auch zu Investitionen aus anderen Ländern in die venezolanische Fossilindustrie führen.

we have discovered a game-changing way of structuring cyberspaces: the Social Web, where content orbits the author like planets orbit a star
I've also articulated this point, but in a negative context. This piece speaks of actor-indexed content in a positive light. I maintain that actor-indexed content is on the whole negative. It's a direct and indirect cause of the familiar social media ills and has wide-reaching privacy implications, which is bad in and of itself, but especially so when you realize that this in turn leads to a chilling effect where people simply opt not to play because it's the only remedy.
We'd do well socially to abandon the "game-changing" practice of indexing based on actor and return to topic-based indexing, which better matches the physical world.

This tendency is known as the “actor-observer effect”. What this means is that people often attribute their own behavior to situational causes, while observers attribute the actor's behavior to the personality or disposition of the actor. For example, an actor's common reason to be late is due to the situational reason, traffic. Observers’ lack of contextual knowledge about the traffic, i.e. common ground, leads to them attributing the lateness due to ignorance or laziness on the actor's part. This tendency towards dispositional attribution is especially magnified when the stakes are higher and the situation is more complex. When observers are relatively calm, the tendency towards dispositional attribution is less strong.[25]

The Finance Minister said as per the second statement of Hollande, Dassault and Reliance selected themselves as partners. “This contradicts his first questionable statement which the French Government and Dassault have denied. The facts contradict the same. His second statement in Montreal, Canada to AFP (news agency) makes the veracity of his first statement even more questionable.”

“the former French President’s first statement rhymes with Rahul Gandhi’s prediction”. “A controversy is sought to be created on the basis of a statement made by the former French President Hollande, that the Reliance Defence ‘partnership’ with Dassault Aviation was entered (into) at the suggestion of the Indian Government. In a subsequent statement the former President has sought to suggest that Reliance Defence emerged on the scene after the agreement with the Indian Government was entered into. He has, in a subsequent statement, said that he is ‘not aware’ if Government ever lobbied for Reliance Defence and that ‘the partners chose themselves’. Truth cannot have two versions.”
