Looks like #chatgpt takes a #victim , this time it is #google 's #coding #competition https://developers.googleblog.com/2023/0.. I know people who have gained a lot from particiapting, so it is a shame to see it now gone.
Very good #article on the #jwt #jameswebbtelescope producing interesting #results already: https://www.colorado.edu/today/2023/02/2.. So far we have found #galaxies that should not exist.
Very cool #aliexpress #tech #review by #greatscott https://youtube.com/watch?v=1dKLF2Ma8nQ The #fingerprint #scanner was a good surprise!
This makes me #uncomfortable - #scientists in the #uk are performing #gene #editing on #babies to remove #genetic #disorders https://www.livescience.com/1st-uk-child.. Meanwhile, the #nhs is apparently on its knees.
I really like the #mnt #reform #pocket , but not enough to #pay $900 #usd for something so insanely under-powered https://mosfet.net/hands-on-with-mnt-poc.. Maybe $200 I could swallow, but this is much more than expected.
Great little #implementation in #javascript to #encrypt #static #html #pages https://github.com/robinmoisson/staticry.. Whilst the #idea is simple, the #implementation is not quite.
The #us are saying that the #eu are #investigating the #nordstream #pipeline #sabotage , the #eu are completely #ignoring it entirely: https://youtube.com/watch?v=Jq0C6OI6llI *Absolutely #disgraceful behaviour.* This shit could literally start a #nuclear #war .
The #cake #experiment was super cool in the end: https://youtube.com/watch?v=tal1jAKQA5c Very impressive! I know a lot more about making #cakes that will #survive different #temperatures now!
#lettherightonein was an #excellent #tv #show . If people want to know how to insert #diversity into #media , this is how it is done.
I really do like the #idea of getting #books #printed https://jvns.ca/blog/2023/02/11/print-co.. Very cool.
#china 's #ccp are #claiming they are also #tracking a #ufo , they are free to #shoot it down - but it's likely their *own* #ufo https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/n.. This by no means that what #china 's #ccp have done in the #us and #canada is even remotely acceptable.
I do not agree with the #violence , but a lot of the #illegal #immigrants #arrive #illegally because they would not be #accepted by our #country . Given we take almost everybody, these are almost definitely #criminals https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/f.. The #doctors and #nurses get #visas and #flights , they don't get on #boats and cross the #channel . Unchecked #immigration is taking its toll on the social fabric.
Interesting #article about increasing #linux #compatibility https://blog.gibson.sh/2017/11/26/creati.. I would say quite a few of these are generally good #tips in any case.
Oh wow, #async in #python can #silently kill a #thread if you don't maintain a #reference ! https://textual.textualize.io/blog/2023/.. I think most examples I saw had exactly this #bug !
A lot of #effort to #hack a #minecraft #server https://lunarlogs.com/2023/01/29/double-.. The #java #build #system #gradle even got #involved and #investigated this: https://blog.gradle.org/wrapper-attack-r.. Apparently this is the first #evidence of a #java #supplychain #attack !
Super nice #thesis from a #bachelors #student https://cme.h-its.org/exelixis/pubs/JanT.. The #result of their #work is that people who #swear produce better #code . They believe it is because it shows #passion for the #source #code .
