🚨Starting our Sunday with our Epoch 5 Allocation Window 🚨 anddddd 🥁🥁🥁🥁 our BIGGEST redesign yet. Say hello to Octant 1.5 🥳🥳🥳 If you’ve been on our app, you’ll see it looks sooo much swankier. So here’s the tldr: ➡️ We’ve got a brand- new desktop UI ➡️ We’ve designed a better reporting display ➡️ An updated anti-sybil process (we really encourage you to read the full blog for detailed updates) 💚 You asked and we delivered. A huge shoutout to all of you for the amazing feedback. Thank YOU for making time for interviews, surveys, and generously sharing your thoughts. It’s helped us drive changes forward. We’re committed to listening and making Octant better for you 💝 We’re sharing the changes in detail, our development process, and the why behind these changes. All that and more (in the next tweet)

If tea spread to your country by sea you call it tea, if it spread by land you call it chai. This is because the ports of Fujian and Taiwan use the coastal pronunciation "te", whereas Mandarin uses "chá"

Every time I see a picture of a Tokyo street scene I think “goddamn why does this look so inviting?!” and then I realise it’s because there’s no on street parking

if @AngusTaylorMP & @JoshFrydenberg want to prop up failing petrol refineries, it should be funded by a levy on petrol, not taxpayers. those who choose to walk 👣, bike 🚲 , take public transport 🚎 or drive electric 🚗🔋⚡️ shouldn’t be forced to subsidise #FossilFuels.

These homeowners were displaced during the Kumamoto earthquake, which revealed a flaw in the community: there were no public baths. They committed to not let history repeat itself: spoon-tamago.com/2020/09/01/…

I'm stuck at home, itchy to go backpacking -- so I loved this 360 video of hiking the Pacific Crest Trail, all 2650 miles of it. youtube.com/watch?v=dvBum8G4… Take a look and you'll see why I love backpacking so much.

Hats off to Iceland 🇮🇸, the testing world leader for #COVID19. Iceland is also the country that discovered 50% of all COVID cases were asymptomatic!!! 50% of cases with no symptoms is an insanely surreal number that highlights how hard it is to contain this epidemic.

OK, so we've just listed some recent studies. But what might have caught your attention is this intriguing graph markup by @jperla. Look at the 'mask countries' vs the 'no mask' countries. 10/15:

Excellent thread on whether Covid is “airborne” and wtf that actually means (certainly changed my mind) and whether masks are the right strategy (yes). Read it. Could save your life.
THREAD🧵--> For weeks, I've been tracking the scientific debate about whether we need masks to prevent transmission of the virus causing #COVID19 and whether it is #airborne. If you're confused, you are not alone. Stick with me here. Let's clear the air. 1/15

The coronavirus crisis teaches two critical climate lessons: 1 We can afford a Green New Deal. 2 When we agree as a society that something is an emergency, we come together to address it. The only thing blocking climate action is our collective choice not to act.

Here's a fantastic vid about the politics behind climate inaction in Australia. I didn't write it, only narrated, but I really hope you watch it all, regardless of political affiliation. After you've watched, here's a wee thread, designed to try to stave off angry trolls😳1/10
