4 Mindsets to Optimize Your Long-Term Productivity, Even if You’re LazySeven months ago, I had never written a single word in a creative context. Writing had always been torture for me. Whenever I had to write uni essays, application letters, or reports at work, I threw up a little.

WASHINGTON — President Biden on Thursday announced the donation of millions of coronavirus vaccines to a group of African countries during a meeting with President Uhuru Kenyatta of Kenya, which is contending with the pandemic and an unfolding humanitarian disaster in neighboring Ethiopia. The Biden administration’s donation of 17 million doses of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine to the African Union came a month after Mr. Kenyatta publicly pleaded for more equitable vaccine distribution around the world. At a meeting of the United Nations General Assembly in New York, the Kenyan president criticized the “asymmetry” of the vaccine supply, a clear reference to countries such as the United States that are administering booster shots instead of donating more vaccines to nations in need. During Mr. Biden’s first in-person meeting at the White House with a leader of an African country, Mr. Kenyatta thanked him for the donation while also suggesting it was not enough.

A viral TikTok from Hisham Hasan (@hishamhasan3) shows an alleged Walmart warehouse stockpiled with PlayStation 5s after a year of supply chain-induced shortages. Walmart reportedly hasn’t had consoles for much of October, so this alleged floor-to-ceiling stocked warehouse may come as a surprise. Others expressed concern about the poster risking his job for telling everybody Walmart has massive stock of the in-demand products. The Daily Dot reached out to Hasan and Walmart for comment.

"Going back to the sense of righteousness that I have ... you’re dizzy because you can’t believe this was just said to you,” Galdot added.“And if he says it to me, then obviously he says it to many other people."

With this update, if someone chooses to back up his chat history with end-to-end encryption, it will be accessible only to him, and no one will be able to unlock the backup, not even Neither nor the backup service provider (like Apple) will be able to access their end-to-end encryption key or their end-to-end encrypted backup. No other global messaging service at this scale provides this level of security for their users’ messages, media, voice messages, video calls, and chat backups," WhatsApp said in a blog post explaining how this extra layer of security will work. Users can now secure their end-to-end encrypted backup with either a password of their choice or a 64-digit encryption key that only they would know."Prior to the introduction of end-to-end encrypted backups, backups stored on Apple iCloud and Google Drive were not protected by WhatsApp’s end-to-end encryption.

OSLO — The attacker who went on a rampage in a town in Norway killed his five victims using a “sharp object,” not a bow and arrow as had been widely reported, the Norwegian police announced on Monday. Espen Andersen Brathen, who confessed to the crime, did shoot arrows at people from a hunting bow during part of his attack last Wednesday in the town of Kongsberg, which also wounded at least three people. At some point in the rampage, the police said at a news conference Monday, he discarded the bow. But it was the rarity of the other weapon used in the attack that caught the world’s attention, and if the hunting bow did not cause any deaths, it was responsible for at least one injury, that of an off-duty police officer who was struck by an arrow.

But shuttering coal plants while the country’s aging nuclear plants are gradually closing has made Britain dependent on gas for around 40 percent of the country’s electricity, far more than any other fuel. It hasn’t helped that the breezes that spin Britain’s wind turbines, which generate about 20 percent of the country’s power on average, have been unusually weak in recent months. In Spain, the government recently, in effect, said it would take profits earned on electric power generation from wind and solar to compensate consumers for high gas prices. About 15 million British households were recently hit with energy price increases in the 12 percent range under a government program to cap big jumps in rates.

She had used up her vacation days, and without paid sick leave, she worried about paying her rent and electricity bill if she took more time off. She and her baby ended up being fine, but Ms. Hayes, now an airline gate agent in Inkster, Mich., said that having paid leave would have allowed her to prioritize her health over her paycheck. Paid leave, a cornerstone of President Biden’s economic agenda, is one of the many proposals at risk of being scaled back or left out of an expansive social safety net bill that Democrats are trying to push through Congress. Mr. Biden’s initial $3.5 trillion plan called for providing up to 12 weeks of paid leave for new parents, caretakers for seriously ill family members and people suffering from a serious medical condition.

While conservationists were working diligently to restore damaged sea grass meadows elsewhere in the world’s oceans, it seemed ironic that in northern Vancouver Island’s sea grass habitat, which is much healthier than others in the world, the furry floaters would swoop in and dig for clams, dislodging the aquatic vegetation. Dr. Foster and her colleagues’ research shows that sea otters are like elephants of the eelgrass. Their disturbance, as they dig for clams and dislodge eelgrass roots, stimulates sexual reproduction among the vegetation. That sexual activity, in contrast to reproduction through natural cloning, boosts eelgrass genetic diversity and improves the resilience of the ecosystems in which both the otters and the eelgrass live.

Workers at John Deere plants across the US midwest walked off the job at midnight on Oct. 14 amid contract negotiations between the tractor company and the United Auto Workers. The union workers rejected a proposed six-year contract with Deere on Oct. 10 that would have raised current employees’ wages and retirement payments, but ended the pension program for workers hired after Nov. 1. Some workers told the Des Moines Register that the wage increases they would receive from the proposed contract seemed paltry in comparison to the latest pay raise for Deere CEO John May, who earned nearly  $16 million in 2020, a 160% increase from the previous year. But Amazon employees’ recent push to unionize showed the limits of worker power, too: Warehouse workers in Alabama rejected unionization efforts in April, signaling a setback for the labor movement.

How the Call of the Common Loon is Erroneously Used in Movies and Television ShowsVox producer Marie Cascione takes a look at the ubiquitous but often erroneously placed call of the common loon as it is used in movies and television shows. The distinctive call of the loon is rather melodious and almost humanlike, which makes it perfect to set certain moods, but is truly out of place outside of the loon’s natural habitat of the northern United States and Canada. Sohl agreed with the premise that the loon call had no business being in certain scenes, no matter how dramatic they were.

Denver artist Thomas “Detour” Evans (previously) created an ingenious vertical remote spray paint rig that uses three different paint cans that spray when individually triggered by a handheld electronic device. He then set the whole thing to music. Custom built vertical gantry for the spray paint and tied it to music and triggers. Here’s another remote control rig the Evans set up.

Russia reported the highest daily coronavirus cases since the start of the pandemic in 2020, while Australia saw a surge in infections even as its Victoria state towards easing COVID-19 restrictions. The country has repeatedly marked record daily death tolls over the past few weeks as infections surged amid a slow vaccination rate and lax enforcement of measures to protect against the coronavirus. Coronavirus case numbers in Australia’s Victoria state surged to 2,297, the highest daily infections in the country since the pandemic began last year. But officials said Thursday the state will open up from pandemic restrictions as planned when the 70% double dose vaccination rates for people age 16 and older are reached sometime next week.

According to Gina Hortatsos, the CMO of LogicGate, risk management is not fear-driven — in fact LogicGate considers risk as a strategic advantage.“Partnering with a vendor that actually understands that risk can and should be used to strategic advantage and should be looked at as an opportunity to take better, smarter, more profitable risks is, I think, what made that customer choose us,” said Hortatsos.“By being able to capture all your risks in one place, having a nimble platform that allows you to manage any risks, any process regarding whatever type of risk that’s getting thrown at you.“You have these risk management people on staff and they’re playing whack-a-mole all day… But what if we could look at that function as if these risk managers are given the right tools and the right empowerment to do their jobs, the way that we’re thinking about it, it actually can make the company more money.”

Climate change is only one driver of biodiversity loss. This week, environment officials, diplomats and other observers from around the world gathered online, and a small group assembled in person in Kunming, China, for the meeting, the 15th United Nations biodiversity conference. While this virtual portion was largely about drumming up political will, nations will meet again in China in the spring to ratify a series of targets aimed at tackling biodiversity loss. Last year, officials reported that the world’s nations largely failed to achieve the targets of the previous global agreement on biodiversity, made in 2010.

Across much of the Atlantic Ocean, from Cuba to Texas and Florida to Newfoundland, hurricanes and tropical storms have flooded streets, taken out the power and caused serious damage to cities this year. In the northeastern Pacific, storms have also been churning to life: So far this year, there have been 16 named storms, including six hurricanes, with more than a month remaining in the season. The Pacific hurricane season begins on May 15, and like the Atlantic season, which begins on June 1, it runs through Nov. 30. Because of atmospheric conditions, when the hurricane season in one ocean is stronger, it usually means the other will have a weaker season, said Dr. Nan Walker, a professor of coastal studies at Louisiana State University.

“And what we uncovered through parents is that so many brands in the space make a single product that they market to parents. And it’s so product focused and it’s, ‘product, product, product, product. Wieder wanted to get to the heart of the parenting experience and bring as much empathy, enthusiasm, and honesty to the experience and the products Lalo was developing To do that, Wieder said it started by going to straight to the source. Lalo takes product development seriously, and Wieder says that even if the products Lalo makes are more expensive than what is on the market, if you’re communicating effectively, you’ll be able to show your worth.

Dr. Forrest studied commerce at university and worked as a stockbroker in the 1980s, but at Fortescue, he put a priority on the innovation of things, from covered conveyor belts to driverless trucks. Similarly, since forming Fortescue Future Industries, a subsidiary funded with 10 percent of the parent company’s profits, Dr. Forrest has hired dozens of scientists and invested in their designs. Green steel, formed entirely with renewable energy, is the Fortescue moonshot. At a giant garage in an industrial area called Hazelmere near Perth’s airport, around 100 experts in engines and energy are trying to eliminate all that carbon by turning a mining company into a clean, green version of Caterpillar or John Deere.

WASHINGTON — The Biden administration on Monday announced that 32 countries had joined the United States in a pledge to reduce methane emissions, part of an effort to set new targets to slow global warming before a major United Nations climate summit in Glasgow next month. Methane is the second-most prevalent greenhouse gas after carbon dioxide but much more potent in the short term in its ability to heat the planet. It is the main component of natural gas and is also released into the atmosphere from landfills, livestock and thawing permafrost. The pledge, developed with the European Union, commits nations to cut emissions from methane 30 percent by 2030.

Experts have said that the policy over the next decade would dramatically reduce the greenhouse gases that are heating the planet and that it would be the strongest climate change policy ever enacted by the United States.“This is absolutely the most important climate policy in the package,” said Leah Stokes, an expert on climate policy, who has been advising Senate Democrats on how to craft the program. He had hoped to point to the clean electricity program as evidence that the United States, the world’s largest historic emitter of planet-warming pollution, was serious about changing course and leading a global effort to fight climate change. The rest of the world remains deeply wary of the United States’ commitment to tackling global warming after four years in which former President Donald J. Trump openly mocked the science of climate change and enacted policies that encouraged more drilling and burning of fossil fuels.
