cloudflare caused a fun bug for april fool's day! ๐ช
due to an overly proactive filter rule intended to block a vulnerability in apache camel, cloudflare's WAF policy overzealously blocked innocent URLs containing the word "camel". this meant that certain packages could no longer be installed from NPM, some stackoverflow pages with "camel" in the title could not be loaded, etc.

NPM issue: github.com/npm/cli/issues/8203
this isn't the first time cloudflare has caused an issue with NPM, either (although this one is really NPM's fault): github.com/npm/cli/issues/836#โฆ

Coalition may rethink rules that push car-makers to create cheaper EVs and hybrids for Australians
Opposition says Laborโs national vehicle emission standard is โpoorly designedโ, despite data showing uptick in green vehicle sales.
...More than 120 electric vehicles are now available in Australia as the new laws upend the nationโs status as a โdumping groundโ for big, polluting cars. Prior to January Australia was the only OECD country without a vehicle emission standard.
The obsession with big cars is not only fuelling the climate crisis, it is making roads deadlier and adding to traffic congestion. And there are other costs โ Australians spend on average almost $100 a week on fuel.. .

I never thought very much about protists/amoebas, and reading this volume was a fascinating introduction to what seems to be an understudied field.
Now I'm wondering how I might isolate and sequence some interesting samples!
We have some amoeba in the lab but mainly from culture collections. We have not isolated any ourselves.

Boosts are much appreciated.
They've been working very hard on this album, but I don't personally have a lot of connections to metalheads, so I'm hoping others on the fediverse do.
Whether you want to be a better ally, think you might be trans, or just donโt understand what this whole transgender thing is about, I highly recommend reading genderdysphoria.fyi/
It talks about what gender itself is, what gender incongruence feels like, the science behind how sex determination and sexual dimorphism works in humans, the diagnostic process for trans folks, and what HRT actually does and what is involved in transitioning. Itโs a good read
