If the world is supplied with 100% renewable energy, 50% of the global shipping traffic will be eliminated, coal oil and gas no longer needs to be transported

Take a long hard look at this graphic, the longest continuous direct measurement of atmospheric carbon dioxide. This is the famous Keeling Curve from the station atop Mauna Loa, Hawaii.
Trump and the GOP are closing the observatory.

I had the most incredibly boring dream that I was washing all the dishes in my sink for hours and when I woke up all the dishes are still there. This is some bullshit.

We are back! #C64 https://www.commodore.net/ The first official Commodore 64 in over 30 years is here - a faithful recreation of the original motherboard on FPGA hardware. HDMI, WiFi, USB, but compatible with every existing cartridge and peripheral. Not an emulator - a recreation. Same price as my first $299

50-60k lines and nothing works, I would literally kill to look at this. lmao.

It makes me laugh/cry that we spent decades trying to get the software industry to internalise that it takes far more effort to support & maintain systems than it does to write them in the first place, and yet seemingly every trendy development in the last 5-10 years has been about making that initial stage faster & sloppier at the expense of everything else

Seen on Bluesky:
Guy explains to CEO of Signal (messaging) that it's going to add "AI" to the service. She says no. He insists, not knowing or caring who he's talking down to.

@rix It's played on a full-size cricket oval. (The clip I shared was from a recent match between Adelaide and Port Adelaide at the Adelaide Oval, which regularly hosts T20 and Test cricket.)
So roughly 170 metres x 140 metres.
With kicking, if the ball is kicked more than 15 metres and you catch it on the full, that's called a mark, and you get to take an unimpeded kick.
You're only allowed to kick the ball or handpass it by punching it with a clenched fist while holding it with an open hand. No throwing.
With tackling, there's no line of scrimmage or offside rule.
A legal tackle is one that's laid on the player with the ball, above the knees and below the shoulders.
If you're tackled, you have to immediately bandpass or kick the ball.
If you're tackled with the ball, you didn't have a prior opportunity to dispose of it, and you make a genuine attempt to kick or handpass it, it goes to a ball up.
If you've tackled with the ball, and you did have a prior opportunity to dispose of it, and you don't immediately kick or handpass it, then the other team gets possession and s free kick.
With the scoring, unlike the rugby codes, there's no try line. If you kick the ball through the two tall goal posts in the middle, it's a goal and you get 6 points. If you kick it between the tall goal posts and the smaller outer posts, it's a behind and you get 1 point.

AI coding tools are currently good at the first 80% of software development, which is putting bugs in. Not so great at the second 80%, which is taking them out again.

Fuck.
Elsewhere in their profession, some scientists are starting to look away. “We know quite a number of entomologists who have experience dating back to the 70s, 80s or 90s,” Hallwachs says. “One of our very good friends – he now does not have the emotional courage to hang up a sheet to collect moths at night. It is too devastating to see how few there are.”
