Don’t know about the small window thing. We had turkeys for a while, but to be fair it was more about domestic animals than food source. Those things would get huge. I remember once some friends were coming to visit at night and seeing them on the roof got scared and ran off.

TIL animals may be allowed in chemistry labs. But then again, still remember my professor’s being very clear that mouth pipetting is bad idea, to then show us how to do it just in case.

It’s clearly a move to make torrent for movies unviable and get funding from Netflix.

Do you have a cluster with 10 A100 lying around? Because that’s what it gets to run deepseek. It is open source, but it is far from accessible to run on your own hardware.

Is that a tiling wall?

Recognizing our knowledge is limited does not mean we believe the earth is flat or that we have no reason not to believe it is not. Attempting to say that everything is pretty much explained just increases the confidence of someone believing in the flat earth, as that is very clearly false. There’s a bunch of things we can not explain and there’s a bunch of things that in theory we can explain and forecast, but in practice we can not. Go ahead and do some quantum mechanical calculations to describe a system with more than 3 electrons with the nuclei of the atoms moving…

I am a chemist specialized in drug design. This article opened my eyes. I’m up to a great scientific discovery. Way too many people have been avoiding amanitas due to disillusions and ingesting large quantities of organic chemicals. Tomorrow I’ll start my new sampling of mushroom properties using myself as evaluator, see you all at the Nobel candidature.

I remember going to Murska Sobota to see the romani population there. It was quite surprising as the integration was absolute. Romani people would live all together but go to town and to the bars with all other people. Most of them worked in Austria with contracts and all. But still, throughout the country there was much hate towards Romani and Croatians, as well as Italians among the older people.

Before today, ClickHouse users would only see the tables in the default database when querying table metadata from ClickHouse system tables such as system.tables or system.columns.

Since users already have implicit access to underlying tables in r0, we made a change at 11:05 to make this access explicit, so that users can see the metadata of these tables as well.

I’m no expert, but this feels like something you’d need to ponder very carefully before deploying. You’re basically changing the result of all queries to your db. I’m not working in there, but I’m sure in plenty places if the codebase there’s a bunch of query this and pick column 5 from the result.

I may be very stupid about it and not know the normative, but what is the safest option for me is the following. No informed consent -> no research on any samples from the patient.

Does not matter how important your research is. I myself would like to be informed about that stuff. I may decide to donate my organs to research after I’m dead, but I have decided that.

What I am saying is that it should not be up to a website company to decide whether something is legal or not. In all other businesses this has always been related to a judge deciding whether something was legal or not. A newspaper is something related, in which case the editor has some responsibility if he lets something clearly illegal slip, however the responsibility falls on the journalist and not on the newspaper itself.

Frankly, I do not want social media - which is currently the main source of information for many and likely most people - to be justified in deciding what should be allowed and what should not. If someone uses such platforms to do something illegal, there are indeed legal methodologies to deal with that.

I used to have bunch of key maps, now it’s just: tap it to pull up the start menu and type software I want to open, and meta + space to change language input on my keyboard.

I guess pretty much it.

Whether they are responsible for what gets posted is exactly the discussion point. There are different ideas on this. Different countries and different people have different opinions on this point.

Generally, website are not really in favor of this idea - and it’s not only big tech I’m talking about.

My personal opinion is I don’t really like this idea. Having the websites responsible of what gets posted means the websites necessarily have to do some censoring. I’m not necessarily against censoring, but I don’t like the idea it is a large private company deciding what to censor. I’d much rather have the government decide and impose the ban on companies.

Moreover, forcing websites to censor things leads to a very centralised internet. The random guy setting up a forum can not afford to patrol that well how website, while big companies indeed can have teams of people doing just that.

Changelog version 0.15.2

• Fixed typo
• Addressed excessive memory usage
• Introduced the ability to retrieve password from memory

Chiming in for something unrelated. Fortran is actually pretty cool and if you need to do a lot of number crunching for scientific calculations starting a project in Fortran is not that bad. I started working on Fortran04 and back then I really couldn’t see any advantage of c++ if we’re talking computations. Now with Fortran23 we’re talking about quite a modern language.

I mean, if you’re considering Fortran for a project your only other likely choice is c++, and I tell you Fortran feels much smoother and easy to work with if you have to do calculations. I guess if you don’t worry about it being new you could consider Julia, but for many applications Fortran still has its well deserved spot.

When using arch I remember it often happened that an update would mess up something. Not all the time, but every few months it would happen that I’d have to spend a morning after the update figuring out what got messed up.
