Stop funding the war 🇩🇪🕊🇺🇦

What it does

We're trying to get Germany to stop funding the 🇺🇦 war by cutting gas (the rest of the EU will follow, and it's ∼700M€/day). Cost of the embargo is just 0.5-3% 🇩🇪GDP or 100-1000€ per capita. 3,135,683,340€ wired by 🇩🇪 to 🇷🇺 since Feb 24.

Protect your community from toxic "natural" gas. The mission of Stop NW Gas Expansion is to protect our communities in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington from the health, safety, and climate threats of methane gas.

  I simulated closing the Strait of Hormuz on real oil trade dataJul 2026 · globaloilnetwork.staffinganalytics.io · ▲244

  OP here: I created this visualization tool as the byproduct of a supply chain class I taught at Columbia. The pedagogical exercise grew into a full blown visualization and paper about global oil trade. The model: The mechanics are the same as the financial network Eisenberg-Noe: Instead of banks, every country consumes oil interconnected via bilateral trading. Shocks propagate throughout the network, depleting oil reserves when bottleneck nodes (such as the Strait of Hormuz) are blocked. Insights: The interesting part is the mechanics of how the crisis unfolds: for example, France receives 0…

  How much is 13B euros?2024 · howmuchis13billioneuros.com · ▲117

  Hi, I made this page to contextualize 13 billion euros (or 14): an amount due to Ireland in an EU Apple tax case and all over the airwaves here this week. I use some pretty silly back-of-the-envelope type calculations (the same ones also repeated a lot in Ireland this week!). These calculations aren't especially interesting, but at least they are present: you can see them, and you can change them. If you do - change the 13 billion to 14 billion for example, related numbers will flash with updates. It's an example using calculang[1]: a language for calculations, and an example that focuses on…

  I made a web game called Almost Pong▲1,135

  Hi HN! I made many small web games in the past with Unity or Phaser. But this time I wanted to make something completely on my own. So I coded a basic game framework in plain JavaScript, and used it to make Almost Pong. This was a really fun project that taught me a lot about JavaScript, and I plan to make more minimalist games with this framework. Interesting fact: Almost Pong doesn't load any assets, all sprites and sounds are generated with code. Happy to answer questions, and please let me know if you have any feedback on the game. Thanks!
