Still trying to make a 3d spirograph

An international police operation dismantled the spoofing service iSpoof https://securityaffairs.co/wordpress/138957/cyber-crime/police-dismantled-spoofing-service-ispoof.html

Militant decency.

@mcc all integers up to 2^53 can be represented, and the above is 2^53-145.

beyond 2^53, all representable integers are even.

@mcc for an IEEE double precision number: 9,007,199,254,740,847.

I learned these particular two the hard way:

- Set boundaries for work, nobody ever got to the end of their life wishing they had seen friends and loved ones less and worked more. All you do by working extra hours is setting unreasonable expectations from your managers and colleagues.

- Recognise that you are just one person. If your workload is too high, the company needs to recognise that and provide additional people. It's not on you to allow your mental and physical health to deteriorate and if your company doesn't recognise this, maybe they're not the company for you.

Besides yourself, how many people have you personally brought to the fediverse?

Good morning! A post just rolled across my fedi-timeline saying not to post about politics on Mastodon, so I'm here to remind you that:

1 "politics" refers to decision-making about how to live together in groups
2 choosing to not participate in political discussion is saying you support the status quo, and is a political stance
3 abstaining from politics because you feel safe from its impacts is a privilege and a choice to abandon your more vulnerable neighbours

What do these keys do? Right and wrong answers accepted. #retrocomputing

In a #retrocomputing mood, reading some old manuals... CTSS was the first general purpose, interactive, multiuser operating system. It ran on an IBM 7090 #mainframe (36 bit CPU, 64kw of core memory) in the early 60s. This is an example interactive session. The commands are mostly straightforward:

"listf" to list your files.

"input" to enter the text editor

"chmode" to set permission bits on your file (sounds familiar...)

etc.

Time for a re- #introduction!

👋 I'm Olivier Forget (you can call me Oliver), I'm part #Canadian, part #French, and US born. Grew up with a passion for #aviation, and #space. I was an #aerospace engineer for a while then started writing #software for a living.

Currently I'm building #dropserver which aims to give you a little place on the internet where you can easily run your own apps for your personal use.

I love #windsurfing / #wingfoiling. Also #camping, #cycling and #rockclimbing!

My first #toot on the woolly mammoth thing. I was rubbish at twitter, I'll probably be worse on Mastodon...but here are some neurons as a way of a premature apology :)

Following critical authentication bypass breach in Fortinet products, Cyble finds hackers selling access over the darkweb https://industrialcyber.co/analysis/following-critical-authentication-bypass-breach-in-fortinet-products-cyble-finds-hackers-selling-access-over-the-darkweb/

To ensure cars didn’t take back control of #Paris streets as the pandemic was “ending” (no, it hasn’t ended), like they have in so many cities, Mayor #AnneHidalgo made sure that 60k parking spaces and many streets were permanently transformed into seating for restaurants, people places and bike-lanes.

Leadership.

Most people that I meet on my photography adventures don't know that "taking pictures for Wikipedia" is a thing. So, when I'm out shooting, I often engage in conversations about how Wikipedia needs more photos. That's what happened this morning, when I took this image for the article "Greater white-fronted goose":

Please consider sharing your photos with a global audience through #Wikipedia !

Every time I poke my head around the bird site, it's worse in a different way. This time, it was the ads. I saw more ads than actual Tweets. And, they were sad pitiful ads, too. For boring things, like Cole Haan wool-lined suede loafers
