"LeoLabs has detected a debris-generating event in Low Earth Orbit. Early indications are that a non-operational Russian spacecraft, Resurs P1 (SATNO 39186), released a number of fragments between 13:05 UTC 26 June and 00:51 UTC 27 June. The ~6,000 kg satellite was in a nearly circular orbit at ~355 km at the time of the event.
LeoLabs will continue to monitor the resulting debris cloud and provide more details in the near future."

Manager: If I give the same problem to 10 different developers, I will get 10 different opinions on how it should be solved.

me: only 10?

@mjg59 Wait, you said perfectly. Deleting everything under /home does not sound like "ensure it exists" but at best "ensure it exists and is empty.

;-P

https://www.businessinsider.com/denver-basic-income-reduces-homelessness-food-insecurity-housing-ubi-gbi-2024-6 Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1,000 a month.

Results showed that close to half of the participants secured housing, and nearly $600K saved in public service costs due to fewer ER visits & jail stays. They also saw improved mental health.

So a few months ago we learned that the individual running polyfill.io silently sold the service to an obscure chinese company.

This popular (and well done / very useful) service was created by the Financial Times, who stopped maintaining it and "donated it to the community", meaning that it relied on a few volunteers to continue running it (and on Fastly who provided the hosting for free). 1/7

@rysiek If it was merely hype chasing after Chrome, they would have added a raft of actually questionable nonstandard tech like WebUSB that Google has been adding to Chrome.

Having an ML framework run locally and giving users full control over the models that are used is more akin to the existing extension / addon model.

Yes, there's a hype angle (you can run those naughty LLMs if you wish) but IDK what is actually wrong with that.

Most of you kneejerk Mozilla critics won't even acknowledge how Mozilla's introduction of FPI screwed up Google's entire ad tracking model because you're too busy painting them as some kind of Google patsy. IMO, the axe grinding is getting pretty gross.

The biggest issue here is Mozilla is demonstrating poor to nonexistent PR.

Would this be useful to anyone? I'm not traveling outside the EU in the next 30 days, so it is not to me.
I've never used Saily and am not familiar with terms of service, giving it out as it is.

babe are you ok you’ve barely touched your dashboard you specifically asked me to spend a week building

@foone So if WHAT

@thomas_shone @angelastella @foone IIRC Postscript is Turing complete so Type 1 fonts (and also PDF files) are possible channels for demons trying to break into your grey matter.
