There seem to be two main ways the #genai #spending will play out -
1. if it fails - we get a major economic crash (on top of #economic #crises triggered by #climatechange #war #debt etc.)
2. if it succeeds - we get a major loss of #jobs
Both invariably lead to #social #instability which takes decades to unwind (if at all)
No one is trying to get ahead of either outcome.
Que se passerait-il en cas de panne électrique dans la région du #Rhin supérieur ?

[…], panne de #courant dans la péninsule Ibérique… pour renforcer la capacité de résilience face aux situations extrêmes, Lise Martins #Nourry, #doctorante au Bureau d’économie théorique et appliquée (Beta*), participe à un projet Horizons Europe de simulation de #crises dont un #blackout avec des organismes de la #région du Rhin supérieur.
The #State Dept began firing >1,350 #US based employees Friday as the #Trump admin goes ahead with an unprecedented overhaul of its #DiplomaticCorps, undermining US ability to defend & promote interests abroad.
The #layoffs, which affect 1,107 #CivilService & 246 #ForeignService officers in the US, come as the US faces multiple global #crises: #Russia's war in #Ukraine, the #Gaza conflict, & the #MiddleEast on edge due to tensions between #Israel & #Iran.

Vers la fin de la modernité coloniale : les périphéries comme laboratoires d’alternatives durables
La fin de la #modernitéColoniale viendra peut-être des marges, là où les #crises forcent l’#innovation. Expérimenter #décroissance, #mutualisme, #municipalisme et #fédéralisme pourrait transformer nos #villes et nos #sociétés.

"Chinese analysts have been closely monitoring the #LosAngeles #unrest, which they said had been exploited by #US President Donald #Trump for #PoliticalTheatre, jeopardising public #safety and #stability. (..) Lacking diplomatic wins, Trump may pivot to harsher domestic tactics to assert strength, risking deeper #crises, according to Yang."
Err .. @EUCommission - seems you can't duck away from a public statement any more.
Or #China will voice "grave concern" first.

« Au Québec, particulièrement depuis la pandémie, les #crises se multiplient et s’aggravent à un rythme effréné. »
« le #hopepunk est un courant de la #sciencefiction qui rejette la #dystopie, non pas en la niant, mais en la confrontant. [Il s'agit] d’une #insurrection douce et obstinée, d’une conviction que la #bonté, la #solidarité et l’#entraide sont les meilleures armes face au #cynisme ambiant »
As #Constitutional #Crises Mount, US #Press Sleepwalks Into #Autocracy. Elon Musk, unelected centibillionaire who threw Nazi salutes at inauguration has wrested control of #Treasury Depart payment system after forcing out most senior career civil servant, #DavidLebryk. As CNN (1/31/25) reported, Treasury #takeover happened after Trump’s team had repeatedly asked about the department’s ability to stop payments, to which Lebryk had insisted, “We don’t do that.” https://fair.org/home/as-constitutional-crises-mount-us-press-sleepwalks-into-autocracy/ #journalism
