Soil data seems to sharply follow boundaries of many countries. This shows how fragmented this data is. This is in contrast with eg. orography which one can just get from satellites.

What a waste of time.

A frozen fridge is a good thing no?

You can have a 1 GB ram VPN for $20 per year.

But on a shared IPv4 as that what makes up much of the cost.

No it's not enough eg for dense grid data you find in numerical simulations.

That's a great business in being paid to show ads by advertisers and not show ads by users.

One thing I can say about the Wolfram language is that is actually Lisp with syntax that looks weird at first sight.

However when you look at rule processing, it's like pattern matching on steroids that I haven't seen in lisp world. It looks quite powerful and applies throughout the language (eg the "Query" book).

Too bad the whole language is closed and so heavily licensed .

Nice tool!

BTW, you can use duckdb with their ui plugin to have an interactive view of your data, not only parquet.

quay.io was down: https://status.redhat.com

I use Kagi as well and, from my experiments, deepseek gives me answers I like the most.

The FBI tracks active shooting cases-where individuals attempt to kill people in public places, excluding those tied to robberies or gang violence. This study is the first to systematically compare how uniformed police and civilians with concealed handgun permits perform in stopping these attacks. Civilians with permits stopped the attacks more frequently and faced a lower risk of being killed or injured than police. Officers who intervened during the attacks were far more likely to be killed or injured than those who apprehended the attackers later.

What about

1. If you can easily write boring code with LLM, you might not have the incentive to refactor it.

2. If you let someone else solve your problems, and you don't reflect in the solution, you won't learn.

3. I rarely read the fine print, but are all LLM IDEs really the same when it comes to intellectual property of the code? Or the responsibily of bad code?

I think the problem that people don't see anymore is using tests themselves. A clever idea is worth more than a single tick in the correct checkbox. This applies to maths as well. Tests are faster to check and, supposedly, objective, but a viva voce exam is still superior imho.

Signal supportes notes to yourself. I think storage is most of their hosting costs.

Also, you can send files to yourself and others using XMPP, there are free servers available online.

I heard that smoke rooms in hotels are one of the cleanest places you can find because of all the filtering, provided no one is smoking atm.

This is a great tool for all your phishing needs!

That's pretty lame. What IP you wanted to drive where there is no cell connectivity rt all, say Mongolia?

I don't understand what's this about actually. You can't just go around accusing people of being rapists without evidence. And if there's evidence, go to the police. What's so special about the hacker community to especially have "problems" in this area?

Also, he quotes some US studies about 1% of rapist being convicted IN THE US and then argues about some even in Berlin. Justice system isn't the same worldwide and I guess its effectiveness would vary.

Such presupposed accusations are very bad for the community as a whole. And sometimes, even after a court verdict, they are still false, viz the tragically comic trial of card. George Pell (https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2019/feb/26/rise-...).
