Then BuzzFeed News came calling, as it would later do for Krauss. The site’s reporting “was sensationalized, superficial, and biased towards the perceived victims,” Ott complains, and it ruined him. What did BuzzFeed actually report? Ott never fully explains, but Google still exists. Ott, it turns out, had fallen in love with one of his grad students, and then fired her, and he complained obsessively about the woman to a different female student. Caltech knew this because it had Ott’s messages along with his Tumblr account, where he had published 86 poems about the student he loved. Ott does not mention his poetry, but at the end of his chapter, he does thank his wife for her support.</p></blockquote><p><a href="https://convo.casa/tags/antiwoke" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>antiwoke</span></a> <a href="https://convo.casa/tags/warOnScience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>warOnScience</span></a> <a href="https://convo.casa/tags/MAGA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MAGA</span></a> <a href="https://convo.casa/tags/maha" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>maha</span></a> <a href="https://convo.casa/tags/newatheism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>newatheism</span></a> <a href="https://convo.casa/tags/charlatans" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>charlatans</span></a> <a href="https://convo.casa/tags/USPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>USPol</span></a> <a href="https://convo.casa/tags/christianOtt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>christianOtt</span></a> <a href="https://convo.casa/tags/rfk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>rfk</span></a> <a href="https://convo.casa/tags/rfkjr" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>rfkjr</span></a> <a href="https://convo.casa/tags/trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>trump</span></a> <a href="https://convo.casa/tags/caltech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>caltech</span></a></p>

Francis Mangion (M)<p>Researchers at Caltech have created a small-scale system that pulls carbon dioxide (CO₂) directly from the air and turns it into strong, industrial-grade plastics. This is a big step forward in carbon capture technology and supports the idea of a circular economy, where waste is reused instead of thrown away.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Caltech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Caltech</span></a></p><p><a href="https://www.threads.com/@techexplorerszone/post/DLfFnoAxkUX?xmt=AQF0eSaJvWpgYk5g7_XJRaepSe3JwNkhOazG7D3Z5ckrEg" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">threads.com/@techexplorerszone</span><span class="invisible">/post/DLfFnoAxkUX?xmt=AQF0eSaJvWpgYk5g7_XJRaepSe3JwNkhOazG7D3Z5ckrEg</span></a></p>
