GJ 504 b is still glowing from the heat of its formation 160 million years ago. Astronomers say it is dark magenta, or the color of cherry blossoms. It orbits a star faintly visible to the unaided eye in the constellation Virgo. exoplanets.nasa.gov/news/116/m…

Can somebody help me understand this please: why would we ever give out carbon credits for not chopping down a forest? “Here’s a forest we shouldn’t cut down anyway. Because we’re not cutting it down, now you can burn more fossil fuels!”

#co2monitoring in #HPC #highperformancecomputing will allow running big science with a lower #co2footprint . Getting insight is a first step and one within your programming experience (am in an exam phase, i can't give it the attention it deserves, also if you see this you rock too).
Please be friendly and constructive. I don't wanna hug this to death
Support for (near real time) time varying carbon intensity · Issue #9 · GreenAlgorithms/GreenAlgorithms4HPC
As suggested in Nanoseb/gqueue#2 there are power grids where there is a lot of deviation of the carbon intensity hour by hour (15 min by 15 min) over the year. See some of those: https://app.electr...GitHub

At New College of Florida, a ‘ridiculously high’ number of faculty are gone
Many frustrated teachers and researchers have resigned or taken leaves to look for other jobs, school officials say.Ian Hodgson (Tampa Bay Times)
also worth noting that tenure doesn’t protect you if the institution, backed by the state, is determined to fire you.
Tenure is in many ways an institutional norm and only truly protects faculty if administrators are committed to it as a concept.

Woke up super early and hopped on a train from London to Kent, thought I should try Gravesend market for about 200 of my handmade jewellery. It's very empty and I'm yet to make enough to cover the cost of travel here.. anyone in Kent? Anyone who knows anyone in Kent? Come say hi ❤️

It's that time of year again when I ask people the question "So, what should I be working on in #inkscape next?"
The full poll is open to my Patreon sponsors over at patreon.com/posts/86464943
No video this week as I'm travelling for a funeral. Sorry everyone! Be back next week with some poll results and a talk about the future for my work on Inkscape.

Famous french youtuber Joueur de Grenier killed his pc recently because he made sure to click that ram anyway.
Upside down. Yeah, nobody knew it was even possible but apparently, it is.
literally yesterday 🤦
so apparently i will have to remove my CPU (and massive cooler) just to be able to release my GPU, as the release mechanism is all jacked up from me trying to operate in half-inch of clearance. And I gotta remove both to upgrade my m.2 SSD if I wanna use that Gen4 slot
i hate computers
The only way you can oppose it though is to vote with your fingers and install something else and/or spend your money elsewhere.
They have only ever been obliged to give source code to those they give binaries to. They went beyond that in the past and everyone got used to it. No one likes losing something they're used to having.
didn’t realize how many of their games I played and loved till I looked at the list! Great studio.
Death’s Door has been my game the last few weeks on the Deck, but highly recommend Katana Zero, Hotline Miami, and Enter the Gungeon.

This is scary. It's (strong) SafetyNet for websites.
Every now and then I run into another Android app I can no longer run because someone decided my phone, running an official build of my choice of OS, that isn't even rooted, is "not trustable".
Now they want to start doing that for websites.
This kills open Linux on the desktop (including Asahi Linux). It kills alternative browsers. It is a backdoor to kill ad blockers.
No. Just no. Please.
An endearing article!
