Epic! 🤩🤩 The very robot we developed in our lab @SwaCILab @comp_sci_durham @durham_uni is on the cover of Science Robotics! 🤩🤩
October's issue of Science #Robotics is out! This special issue spotlights the use of robots for scientific discovery. The cover depicts a robotic system for automated observation of individual and social #honeybee behaviors within a hive. Read more: bit.ly/3zW1OVT

I've just come back from #Venezuela 🇻🇪 where I spent 2.5 weeks, witnessing the run-up to the presidential vote, and what was arguably the most outrageous election steal in the modern history of Latin America. I'll share some thoughts below 🧵

Fella, Fellas, Fellas. Easy :) Your likes are not disappearing, and no-one is suppressing @P_Kallioniemi's likes :) They're just not visible because Xitter sucks. Liking the post again does absolutely nothing other than wasting your time :) Lemme try to explain a little bit. 1/6

1/ #Österreich #Deutschland #Україна Es kommt nicht oft vor das man eine direkte Beteiligung der @RusBotWien & des russischen Kulturinstitutes in Wien eine direkte Beeinflussung der Wählerströme, Parteien und Meinung nachweisen könnte mit Ziel den Linken und rechten Teil der Gesellschaft zu spalten.

Österreich pflegt weiterhin beste Beziehungen zu Moskau. Von der Neutralität als bequemen Vorwand über OMV, ÖRFG und FPÖ bis hin zur Rolle von ORF und Kronen Zeitung - mein Überblick @tazgezwitscher: taz.de/Oesterreich-russische…

Powerful letter from @NobelPrize laureates Elfriede Jelinek, Herta Müller, Olga Tokarczuk & 10 other cultural icons demanding the Belarus regime clarify the fate of political prisoners. The authors rightly state: complete isolation of prisoners is torture. I couldn't agree more.

In today's #vatniksoup, I'll introduce an Austrian journalist, Christian Wehrschütz (@Wehrschu). He's best-known for supporting and spreading pro-Kremlin narratives on the Russo-Ukrainian War. 1/20

1/ BREAKING ⚡️: Der @ORF, #Wehrschütz, TikTok Account aus Polen für pro russische Propaganda, Verschwörungstheorien und Anti Europäisches Gedankengut namens Konrad Wichert, zwei manipulierte Videos und zwei russische Narrative. Schauen wir uns an ob der @ORF jetzt Russia Today Konkurrenz macht? #Österreich #Ukraine #Україна
Lieber @OrfDrei! Hier ist der Fact Check für 40 Sekunden Wehrschütz. Das muss man erstmals schaffen gleich 4 Fehlinformationen zu platzieren. #Österreich #Deutschland #NAFO #Ukraine #Україна

Is Austria the least safe European country? “Yes,” he replies. “While we [Bellingcat] were investigating the Austrians, they were surveilling me [...] They were doing so explicitly at the request of the Russians. That is deep penetration.”: @christogrozev ft.com/content/03f220e1-6a7e…

Plugging a rather large gap in the market, “Austria: Behind the Mask. Politics of a Nation since 1945” by Paul Lendvai (released last week) is a welcome fresh biography of what was long considered a European post-war success story. Is it still? 🇦🇹 Publishers, we need more Eastern European and Central European nation biographies like this please!

Sie brauchen keine Sicherheitsgarantie, da Sie von NATO-Streitkräften umzingelt sind. Die Ukraine braucht einen, da sie von russischen Streitkräften umzingelt ist.
Für uns als neutrale Staaten ist klar: Wir werden uns nicht an Sicherheitszusagen zur langfristigen Verteidigung der Ukraine beteiligen. Wir werden uns beim EU-Gipfel gemeinsam dafür einsetzen, dass die Stellung der Neutralen in der EU weiterhin ausdrücklich berücksichtigt wird.

"Some observers of the Russo-Ukrainian war seem to think that its greatest danger is that Ukraine will win, or win too quickly, and that this will be uncomfortable for Putin, and that we should care. This is a deeply perverse way of seeing things." snyder.substack.com/p/the-fo…
