econ, housing, finland 

Finland ended homelessness permanently by providing to those without homes a small apartment and social welfare counseling. Of those who were in the program, 80% eventually returned to a stable life, and on the whole, the Finnish government *saved* money.

PSA about harmful health effects of ruthenium jewelry 

Huh. Today we learned: Ruthenium jewelry is actually really bad to have

ruthenium metal is perfectly harmless on its own, but it reacts very quickly with bleach to form extremely toxic, bioaccumulating ruthenium salts and, even worse, ruthenium tetroxide gas

this doesn't have to be strong industrial-strength bleach either. common household bleach will do it, like you'd use when cleaning things or doing laundry
