Carbon Bombs, https://www.carbonbombs.org/.

Transparent data and visualization about the world's biggest fossil fuel extraction projects, and their links with companies and banks.

Example with TotalEnergies, https://www.carbonbombs.org/companies?name=TotalEnergies+SE

- 17 carbon bombs
- 43.6 GtCO₂ emissions
- 55.7 $B financed since Paris agreement

Top banks financing TotalEnergies:

- Crédit Agricole
- BNP Paribas
- Société Générale

And so on.

Pretty useful. Banks have a gigantic impact. Choose a better bank.

Last night @bcantrill and I were lucky to be joined by @gergelyorosz to talk about how we hire at Oxide, the experiences that led us to that process, and hiring generally.

There's a lot there for anyone interested in hiring or being hired... and especially for anyone who's considered applying to Oxide, definitely worth a listen.

Even though I've only made it partway through the book, I can confirm it's great. A breath of fresh air, so to speak, for the difficulties of living off the Earth.

73/ But Rosenberg noted that Engoron is "an experienced jurist” and it doesn't appear as though he's made any such statements.

Another possible reason for the rants: "It may just be that Mr. Trump is incoherent, that his answers make quite literally no sense."

At the end of the day, Rosenberg said, it's the judge who will determine the penalties for Trump.

Another prominent tech analyst writes an insightful essay about his decision to walk away from Xitter. Long, but very much worth your time to read.

It has been a while since I posted an update on Surfer, the vcd viewer I and a few others have been working on.

I'll fix that with a 🧵 about all the new stuff we've added

First, here is a quick video showing what it looks like now: It showcases some navigation, the CLI interface and the Spade translation which enables exploring Spade types natively. This system is extensible, so it should be easy to add other languages or formats!
