I call on the European Union to DEFUND the United Nations. Europe should no longer write blank cheques to international institutions without strict accountability. My 5 reasons: 1. ACCOUNTABILITY — every euro must be audited and justified. 2. EFFICIENCY — cut duplication, https://t.co/dLfgBtAnsL #DefundUN #Accountability #EUReform #EU #UN

Interesting question: Could ADHD have evolved as an evolutionary advantage? People who screened positive for ADHD switched to exploration more quickly and, in this specific task, achieved greater reward-harvesting efficiency. They also abandoned less rewarding resource patches https://t.co/uRJVU5067p #ADHD #evolution #psychology #Nospecificcountriesarementionedinthetweet.

Volkswagen har introducerat Mission Efficiency, en prototyp av världens mest energieffektiva produktionsnära elbil, som har slagit tre världsrekord tack vare dess exceptionella aerodynamik och låga energiförbrukning, vilket demonstrerar företagets teknik för massproduktion. #MissionEfficiency #Volkswagen #EldrivnaBilar

Would you inhabit a 3D-printed house erected in eight days? An affordable / mould-resistant / fire-resistant / seismic-resistant / climate-disaster-resilient house. SOURCE: https://www.facebook.com/reel/1420242892872158 A 3D-printed house that genuinely resolves the global housing crisis!!! What you are viewing in the video is no mere exhibition prototype. It is House Zero — the first luxury 3D-printed residence realised in Austin, Texas, by the American firm ICON in collaboration with the practice Lake|Flato Architects. Two hundred square metres, three bedrooms, a drawing room with exposed beams, a designer kitchen, and an independent casita in the garden. Its iconic undulating walls were extruded in a mere eight to ten days. A project so revolutionary as to have been included in TIME's list of the Best Inventions of 2022. But what does it truly signify to dwell in a 3D-printed house? WHAT A 3D-PRINTED HOUSE IS: No bricks or formwork are employed. An enormous robotic arm — ICON's Vulcan system — deposits, layer upon layer, a proprietary special concrete, Lavacrete, a material engineered to be eminently resistant, insulating, and printable. The entire process is governed by software that adjusts the formula every fifteen minutes according to weather conditions. Plaster and structure become one and the same. WHY IT IS THE FUTURE OF CONSTRUCTION: ALL THE ADVANTAGES 1. Record times: The walls of House Zero were completed in eight days, as opposed to the months required by a traditional building site. The site operates twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, and never ceases for lack of labour. 2. Less waste and greater sustainability: Additive printing uses only the material that is necessary. Site waste and emissions from material transport are reduced to nigh on zero. Moreover, Lavacrete is designed for superior energy efficiency. 3. Lower costs (potentially): Fewer workmen on site, fewer deaths and injuries at work, less time, fewer errors. According to ICON, the system can substantially curtail construction costs and render housing more accessible. 4. Total architectural liberty: The curves, the fluted walls, the integrated niches you see in the video would be exorbitantly expensive or impossible by traditional methods. With 3D printing, form truly follows function. 5. Resilience and insulation: The walls in printed reinforced concrete are more resistant to fire, water, mould, and extreme atmospheric agents, typical of Texas. The thermal inertia of the material guarantees superior insulation. 6. A solution to the housing crisis: It is the technology that ICON is already employing to build entire neighbourhoods of one hundred houses in Texas and for social housing projects in Mexico. The question now is this: having seen it within, would you live in it?

Polska gromi Izrael!!! 106:86 Jesteśmy o krok, kroczek malutki od awansu na Mistrzostwa Świata w koszykówce mężczyzn. @KoszKadra zagrała jak faworyt. Pewnie, uważnie i cierpliwie. Tnąc w zarodku każdą próbę zrywu rywali. ✅Jordan Lloyd? Pewny i świetny. ✅Olek Balcerowski? Dominacja pod atakowanym koszem. ✅Igor Milicic Jr? Przepięknie się rozwija, widać, że nie marnuje czasu w Stanach. ✅Andrzej Pluta? Świetny w pierwszej połowie ✅Dominik Olejniczak? Pełna kontrola deski ✅Zyzio, Żołnierz, Łączka, Sokół? Znakomici żołnierze generała Milicica ✅Igor Milicic Sr? Kolejny raz doskonale rozpracował rywala i wybił mu z ręki wszystkie atuty razem z zębami Tylko raz w historii drużyna z siedmioma zwycięstwami w kwalifikacjach nie awansowała na MŚ. Ale... jeśli wygramy w niedzielę z Niemcami to awans ma Mistrzostwa Świata mamy już pewny. A jeśli myślałeś, że zapomniałem o Kapitanie, Panu Koszykarzu, Panu Kosz Kadra, Mateuszu Ponitce to... ✅24 punkty ✅6 zbiórek ✅9 asyst ✅4 bloki ✅7/11 z gry ✅4/7 za 3 ✅6/6 z linii ✅tylko jedna strata ✅efficiency 38 ✅+25 w 27 minut na boisku ✅przejmował grę w każdym istotny momencie, w czwartej kwarcie niemal sam wybił Izraelowi jakiekolwiek myśli o próbie powrotu do meczu Gość pierdolnięty. #Koszykówka #MistrzostwaŚwiata #Polska

**Load Is Not the Enemy. Unstructured Load Is.** Europe does not need to make industry consume less electricity simply for the sake of consuming less. It needs to make electricity demand more intelligent in time. Industrial flexibility means shifting, shaping and coordinating loads around electricity prices, grid conditions and production needs — without compromising the output the customer actually wants. That can mean demand response. It can mean BESS. It can mean thermal storage, EV charging, process scheduling or combining several flexible assets behind the meter. The value does not come from any single technology. It comes from **coordination**. As electricity markets become more dynamic, flexibility turns consumption from a passive cost into an actively managed energy profile. The next efficiency frontier is therefore not only about using fewer kilowatt-hours. It is about deciding **which kilowatt-hours, when, and for what purpose.** #Energy #Flexibility #Electricity

In 1973, a chart in Scientific American showed something delightful: Put a human on a bicycle, and the same ordinary body becomes one of the most energy-efficient travellers on Earth.
