The Google Earth you love is now on web. Check out our new video guide on moving your work from Google Earth desktop to the web. goo.gle/4iNvmIM
Thanks to feedback from our community, some of your top requests have already shipped: circle measurements, elevation profiles, project search, CSV and shapefile imports, a rebuilt Local KML editor, and we're just getting started. Our guide covers how Google Earth on the web is built for professional workflows, how you can inform what we build next, how to work locally, and more!
We have learned to interpret optical imagery, even at wavelengths beyond human vision. SAR is less intuitive to read, yet it holds a wealth of information. AI strength in pattern recognition could help us uncover new insights and applications in radar data.

Pro tip: Combine your live audio recordings with photos of your handwritten notes to create the ultimate personalized workspace
This may be the 1st wave of AI impact on our existing systems at scale. Vulnerabilities can be found faster than systems can be patched and hardened. Whether that leads to stronger security in the long run or serious disruption along the way, I am not sure 😩

The Palestinian people continue to endure immense suffering.
Israeli restrictions on humanitarian assistance must be lifted.
The obstacles to implementation of the Comprehensive Plan to End the Gaza Conflict endorsed by the Security Council must be removed.
Civilians must be protected.
And international law must be respected.
The two-State solution remains the only viable path: Israel & Palestine living side-by-side in peace & security.

I’m deeply alarmed by Israeli actions in the occupied West Bank.
Settlements are expanding, evictions are unrelenting with Palestinians driven from their lands, settler violence is surging, Palestinian families are being assaulted.
We are seeing an increasingly coercive environment, with the spectre of ethnic cleansing looming ever larger.
This must end.
There can be no durable peace in the Middle East without the realization of the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people to self-determination.

I left Washington just after Trump moved the U.S. embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. When I arrived in the U.K., the debate was whether Britain should follow. Today, Britain has recognised the State of Palestine and imposed sanctions on Israel. If change is possible in the U.K., it is possible in the U.S., and it's happening.

كمان ساعة ان شاء الله
اتعملك Hack ولا لسه؟
في حلقة جديدة من بودكاست الويك اند بنتكلم عن الـ Security، والـ Hacks والـ Critical Vulnerabilities اللي بنسمع عنها كل شوية، حتى في أكبر الشركات.
ليه المشاكل دي بتحصل؟ وهل إحنا كـ Software Engineers بنستهين بالـ Security؟ وإيه اللي المفروض نغيره في طريقة بناء الـ Software عشان نقلل المشاكل دي؟

A story from 2025 that holds a special place in our hearts. ❤️
Syria is where ICARDA’s story began. After years of conflict took a heavy toll on agriculture, a new chapter is taking shape focused on restoring local agricultural systems and building resilience. 🌱
Explore how ICARDA is working with the Syrian Ministry of Agriculture to support this new chapter.

We believe voice is the most natural way to interact with intelligence, so we created Dessa, the most authentic full-duplex speech model ever built. Talking with it feels like talking with a person…full of emotion, nuance, pauses, and a natural cadence.

تصريح د. نزار حداد، المدير العام على هامش توقيع #الصندوق_الكويتي للتنمية اتفاقية منحة مع المركز الدولي للبحوث الزراعية في المناطق الجافة «إيكاردا»، للإسهام في تمويل مشروع تطوير ونشر الأصناف الزراعية المحسّنة وراثياً باستخدام الحلول الذكية. يهدف المشروع إلى تحديث وتسريع برامج التحسين الوراثي للمحاصيل الزراعية، من خلال تطوير أصناف محسّنة قادرة على التكيّف مع التغيرات المناخية والظروف البيئية في المناطق الجافة وشبه الجافة بالدول العربية.
A statement by Dr. Nizar Haddad, Director-General of (ICARDA) on the sidelines of the grant agreement signing between#KuwaitFund for Development and the International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (@ICARDA ) to contribute to the financing of a smart solutions-based project for developing and disseminating genetically improved agricultural varieties. It aims to update and accelerate genetically improved agricultural crops programs through developing modified varieties capable of adapting to climate change and environmental conditions of dry and semi-dry regions in Arab states.
A major milestone for climate-resilient agriculture across the Arab region!
ICARDA and @KuwaitFund have signed the Regional Breeding Modernization Project (BredMod 2.0), implemented with the Kuwait Institute for Scientific Research (KISR).
Together, we aim to modernize crop breeding, accelerate the development of climate-resilient varieties, and strengthen food security across the Arab region.
