  1. When the "agentic" Q got asked I said to the col. THIS is the security threat, people describing AI itself as a problem.

    Sure, AI changes the landscape, but only providers, deployers & users can be held to account, not their tech, we must focus legal agency on them.

    access to low earth orbit just came up. also #Samarium

    can't rely on private companies to make offensive (or defensive offensive reply) strikes, risks escalation, yet no one else can do it.

  2. I'm not an atomic scientist but I thought I knew all the element names well enough to recognize them [0], so today's news about #Samarium (h/t/ @j2bryson) is extra weirdly ominous because I *don't* recognize the name

    it's oddly made-up-sounding, and makes me think of the Appointment in Samarra, which is... not an auspicious story, when we're talking about a global war

  3. Excellent — let’s hope this is all China has to do to make war obviously stupid. #Samarium

    Considering the info in the following article, it's curious why #China would negotiate with the #US about anything & why they wouldn't bloc the availability of #samarium to any country who needs/wants it unless they kiss China's a$$. 🤷‍♂️

  12. Endlich geklärt: Jahrelang war strittig, wo die Halbwertszeit des für Datierungen wichtigen Isotops Samarium-146 liegt. Jetzt hat ein Physikerteam diese Unsicherheiten beseitigt. #Samarium #Datierung #Halbwertszeit #Isotop

  17. Samarium: atomic number: 62; weight: 150.36; Lanthanide, rare earth; discovery: 1879—Paul-Émile Lecoq de Boisbaudran #Poetry #Science #History #Samarium (sharpgiving.com/thebookofscien)

  18. China Plans to Ban Exports of Rare Earth Magnet Tech

    China is considering banning the export of technologies used to produce high-performance #rare #earth #magnets deployed in electric vehicles, wind turbine motors and other products, citing “national security” as a reason, it has been learned.

    With the global trend toward decarbonization driving a shift toward the use of electric motors, China is believed to be seeking to seize control of the magnet supply chain and establish dominance in the burgeoning environment sector.

    China is estimated to hold an about 84% share of the global market in #neodymium magnets and an over 90% interest in #samarium #cobalt magnets.

    If China bans the export of such technologies, it would be difficult for the United States and Europe, which do not traditionally manufacture rare earth magnets, to newly enter the market, thus making those countries totally dependent on China, according to a European source
