🔗 Manchin and Schumer announce deal for energy and health care bill
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and Sen. Joe Manchin on Wednesday announced a deal on an energy and health care bill, representing a breakthrough after more than a year of negotiations that have collapsed time and again.
...
While many details have not been disclosed, the measure would invest $369 billion into energy and climate change programs, with the goal of reducing carbon emissions by 40% by 2030, according to a one-page fact sheet.Great news! Exactly what I needed to hear this week. -
🔗 You should take more screenshots
If you do any sort of creative digital work, screenshots and screen recordings are a great way to remember it.

The climate crisis is getting worse, and Congress is one vote short of saving us. We’re going to have to save ourselves.
Hard agree. Reminds me, I should email the solar installers, who also do full electrification, how much it would cost to rid us of our gas range and water heater… -
🔗 My awakening moment about how smartphones fragment our attention span
I recently realized that absorbing the constant inflow of information from my smartphone, always readily available in my pocket to capture any free moment of attention, had fragmented my attention span.
