@BenjaminHCCarr I'm surprised to read such a white-washing article, the Guardian already had more critics about the Sea of Plastics!
This article is written by the photographer, his sources doubtful.The problem of #plasticWaste from #farming in #Spain arrived at the sea: https://murciatoday.com/environmental_groups_raise_the_alarm_over_growing_plastic_pollution_on_mar_menor_beaches_1000268284-a.html and comes back from export: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mb8rQDrxg_c (so much for "recycling").

@BenjaminHCCarr Keep in mind that there's an inherent contraction in all scales of things (what goes Big Bang, goes Big Crunch), and a vital infrastructure like farming, will only sustain 'flat plain' systems for so long.
This is where evolution to vertical farming is in order.

@BenjaminHCCarr We are collectively at such a massive deficit, at nearly every scale, that we can no longer afford ANY artificial ANYthing.

The worst-case scenario is #smallpox by a factor of 100.
R ~6, 0.3% immunity; 30% case fatality rate. That would be ~100M deaths for the US without a competent vaccine distribution campaign.
They're building concentration camps.

"Notably, 10 of the 19 individuals who reported that they were pregnant when exposed [to tear gas] reported a subsequent miscarriage — that’s about twice the expected rate of miscarriage. "~
tear gas (2-chlorobenzalmalononitrile [CS]) targets TRPA1pepper spray (oleoresin capsicum [OC], capsaicin) targets TRPV1
~
"Although TRPV1 and TRPA1 have been shown in the human eutopic and ectopic endometrium, their regulation and functional importance are not known..."
https://doi.org/10.1530/JME-15-0184~
"CS exposure induced strong tissue swelling, plasma extravasation, and a dramatic increase in inflammatory cytokine levels in the mouse ear skin. We also showed that the effects of CS were not transient but caused persistent skin injuries. These injury parameters were reduced with TRPA1 inhibitor treatment. Further, we tested the pharmacologic activity of advanced TRPA1 antagonists in vitro. Our findings showed that TRPA1 is a crucial mediator of CS-induced nociception and tissue injury and that TRPA1 inhibitors are effective countermeasures that reduce key injury parameters when administered after exposure.

@BenjaminHCCarr This. #infosec is hard even on mature, well seasoned, battle-tested technologies, so I am willing to give a pass to #foss developers who usually develop useful tools on their time and dime for all to use, especially when it comes to risks inherent to emerging technologies like #AI.
However, this case is interesting to me because it seems to me that the emerging technology -related risks have been more thoroughly thought out and protected against than the same old same old.
Credentials exposed in plaintext, lack of user and privilege separation, etc.
As a FOSS enthusiast and security guy, I do believe that FOSS developers do have a duty with their user base to produce as secure as possible software for all to use. Security is a core, though oft neglected aspect of software quality.
However, as a FOSS developer myself, although nothing on the scale of #clawdbot / #moltbot , I know security *is* hard. It requires time, resources and expertise that even many teams on big companies don't have. I'm not pointing fingers here.
Therefore I do believe that we, the security minded people in the FOSS community ( #FOSSSec if you'll indulge me) have a duty towards developers and users.
The most impactful way is obviously to just pr a fix imho. But at a systemic level just that won't work.
Much ink has been spilled on #securityawareness (tm), but I don't think the problem is that people aren't aware anymore.
It's a problem of improving security culture and habits, and one way we can do that is by improving the functionality and usability of existing FOSS security tools, so that more people learn and use them, for instance.

@BenjaminHCCarr The fossil fuels industry did a tremendous job in amplifying the disastrous evacuation of the Fukushima community, which far outweighed the reactor damage fallout. They even made Tritium treatment look like a massive abuse of power, when Tritium is critical to naturally occurring Hydrogen, and marketable.
Too bad #TMSR tech has been forgone in their nuclear rehab.
