On this day in 1906: the M 7.9 San Francisco Earthquake. I get chills every time I see this ShakeMap. Publicly funded science is how we learn about quakes in CA and beyond, and how we prepare for future ones. Current federal attacks on science are an…

Can someone familiar with these data clarify what's actually up? A lot of posts are phrased as if data itself is going away, but when I click through, it looks like some interfaces are closing but you can still get data other ways. Ditching easily…

Went to a campus event on disasters (focusing on Hurricane Helene and the LA wildfires) yesterday, and one of the panelists straightforwardly told the whole room he doesn't think humans cause climate change. UChicago is really upholding its commitment to…

The geomorphology market is small, but this hard drive company is really leaning into it by advertising that you can store all of your terrain here.

Climate deniers and large language models have a lot in common: they both try to make sure their words are in the same shape as real information, but have zero respect for or interest in delivering factually correct content. [contains quote post or other…

Advantage of teaching twice weekly 80 min classes instead of 3x weekly 50 min classes: We have more classroom time with less interruption! Great! Disadvantage of 80 min classes: but now im tired ☹️

Got the earthquake alert text for the event that just happened near San Diego (https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/ci40925991/executive) but upon heading to the USGS event map, the first thing to catch my eye was this label somehow being…

Reminded of a silly joke by my lecture prep: Isaac Newton, Blaise Pascal, and Robert Boyle are playing hide and seek. Boyle starts counting, and Pascal runs away to a great hiding spot. Newton panics with no idea where to hide, but then draws a square in…

Exact same reason why oil companies are funding research in things like carbon dioxide removal as a climate "solution". Duping people into thinking sci-fi tech is an easy fix for a problem means you can also dupe them into abandoning regulations that can…

Same as hyping up geoengineering "fixes" over fossil fuel reductions. CCS/CDR startups pitch a high-tech heroic narrative of stopping climate change that brings in investors, but the product is mostly smoke and mirrors that can drive people away from the…

One year ago today, but it somehow feels both longer and shorter than a year.
