Did you know Excel got an update a couple of years back? Current versions don't convert gene symbols to dates any more. Someone might have started and finished a MSc in bioinformatics since and would not have been affected by this specific Excel "feature" ever in their own, new data analysis workflows.
Still, I agree with you that an Excel file doesn't inspire confidence and generally I'd advise anyone to avoid Excel.

Mostly, the people I see here don't hate machine learning. They detest the current applications and the way hardly-helpful, intrusive and privacy shattering "products" are forcefully introduced into their lives with little recourse. There's a difference between the inherent potential of a tool to be useful and its manifested application for the user.

I use Thunderbird for RSS reading. And that works nicely for me.

IMHO the death count doesn't matter much. As long as there is money in selling oil and gas that market will continue. Judging from the number of dead, damaged and displaced people from current conflicts alone, I am not sure any one event has the capacity to globally change climate policy. But Fukushima is an example where one event had an impact in some jurisdictions - even on the other side of the globe. But not globally. There are too many partial interests at play here.
