Back in Munich, I find myself musing upon news from the USA which strikes me as less than newsworthy, news from Hungary which is not entirely surprising but could hardly have come at a worse time, and news from Mexico City which will probably be forgotten very soon.

Say goodbye to the Heath bar! Also, a new spin on germicidal UV lamps, what “nanotechnology” really is, words meant to stop thought, future plans for blast and the difficulty of finding local businesses…

Good news from Boca Chica, with a logistical note to say that nobody is going to Mars in 2026 ; hopeful news from outstate Michigan ; downright stupid news from Fairbanks, and some kind of answer to the question “what goes into a $200 million airplane, anyway?” ; bad news from Taiwan ; “is Europe failing?” ; and a meditation on what is and is not “political” which reflects on a great deal of other news.

Quoting myself? A bad habit, but sometimes I say what I mean best. “It’s good to grow some of your own food, but it is both morally and practically obligatory to get most of your Calories from industrial agriculture, because it uses two orders of magnitude less labour per Calorie. Anything else is headed back to serfdom, because Marx was quite right (and you won’t hear me say that often) that the mode of production strongly determines the form of social organization. Leave pastoral fantasies to the Far Right.”
