bilingual schools - The Chronikler

Can peace be as simple as child’s play?

Palestinian and Israeli children are victims of the conflict they have inherited. So can joint schools help them learn to live together?

Only in Belgium. Not only does the country brew hundreds of varieties of beer, a Belgian firm is developing a device that allows you to "print" your own customised beer at home, including blonde, IPA and bitter. Wonder if it tastes any good. nieuwsblad.be/cnt/dmf2023033…

If you think you're too small to make a difference, think of Vanuatu. The Pacific nation of some 300,000 inhabitants spearheaded a historic UN resolution to determine what international law says about countries' obligations to tackle the climate crisis. theguardian.com/environment/2…

Tragically, AI has claimed a life in Belgium. A young man who was suffering depression and eco-anxiety discovered a chatbot called ChaiGPT (or Eliza) which helped him along the downward spiral to suicide by amplifying his negative thoughts, his wife says. nieuwsblad.be/cnt/dmf2023032…

"Such decisions must not be delegated to unelected tech leaders." Finally, something on which I agree with Elon Musk. Artificial Intelligence affects all of humanity, so everyone should have a say in the future development of AI. futureoflife.org/open-letter/…

The artifacts of our dirty past can store the energy that will help power our clean future. There is a certain poetry to this resourceful idea of transforming abandoned mines into gravity batteries for renewable energy. euronews.com/green/2023/03/…

We "legacy verified" users will reportedly lose our blue Twitter tick on 1 April. Still, I refuse to pay. I believe verification should be earned and that the paid-for system undermines the original purpose of verification and will make it worthless. Very unwise from Elon Musk

@hossambahgat Sadly, this is not new. The Israeli right has been pushing conspiracy theories about the left and about peace activists for years. An example of this was the 2016 NGO law which targeted progressive organisations receiving foreign funding. chronikler.com/middle-east/is…
