CERN severs russian science ties, three years after #Ukraine invasion

Nearly 350 russian-affiliated #scientists face changes in their #research status as #CERN implements its final break from russian institutions today, preserving individual collaborations.

We lost my child's cuddly toy in the train from Amsterdam to Vlissingen 😭 They are heartbroken

EDIT: the cuddly toy is a grey bunny and their name is Bunnie, I can only imagine how scared little Bunnie is 😥

EDIT: adding an image, Bunnie was sitting in a pink backpack with children's clothes and a tablet in it

Developer question: If you build a minimal ActivityPub server for development purposes, do you have to run it on a registered domain with an SSL certificate for it to be able to connect to anything else (like a big Mastodon instance)?

Or is running it on some kind of dynDNS or ngrok type service (so it has a static domain name) enough just to test things out?

(Boosts for reach gratefully received 🙏)

Enjoy our current atmospheric CO₂ because we'll never see it this low again!

just one more LLM bro. i promise bro just one more LLM and we'll automate away all our problems bro. it’s just an Al chatbot bro. please just one more. one more Al and we'll save another 12 minutes/month. bro cmon just give me 9 millions gpu and we'll acheive AGI i promise bro. bro bro please we just need to build one more

Unikernels on the other hand don’t have system calls. They only have function calls. For an attacker this means they’ll have to know the exact memory layout of your application in order to invoke the operating system. You’ll need to know the exact 64 bit address of the function you’re invoking. Good luck guessing that address. Our own unikernel, IncludeOS, randomizes addresses at each build, so even with access to source code you still don’t know the memory layout.
#IBM research has spearheaded a new effort with their ukvm project. Ukvm is a replacement for QEMU specifically built for unikernels. Solo5 provides a framework for unikernels to boot a VM that is backed by ukvm instead of QEMU. Both IncludeOS and #MirageOS are already capable of booting using the Solo5 core and efforts are underway to port HaLVM to Solo5/ukvm. The Muen Separation Kernel also has a Solo5 port and it’ll be exciting to see if the more traditional operating systems will follow suit.

Cherns '76: Boundaries erected based on technology, territory or time may seem pragmatic but "they tend interfere with the desirable sharing of knowledge and experience."

I said it many times before and I will keep saying it:

No matter how dystopian the world feels, the most dangerous threat to privacy is giving up.

If you just give up and cooperate, because it's easier than fighting to opt-out, you have lost the battle without even a fight.

Privacy is only dead if we let it die.
Privacy is a human right.
Don't let it die.

The former head of MI6 has said Europe is no longer in a "pre-war situation" with russia, but "an actual war".

Sir Richard Dearlove said it is time "to face up to the fact" that russia thinks it is in a state of war with the whole of the continent, and has already carried out "very aggressive moves" on certain European countries.

Can’t help but think there might be a relationship between people complaining about paywalls and newspapers being bought by billionaires. We should be willing to pay for news because that’s how journalists get paid.

On the other hand, I'm 100% against paywalls in scientific journals. Research is almost entirely publicly funded, and scientists do all the work (have ideas, get money, research, write, review). Plus, we pay publication charges. All scientific journal articles should be open access.

🇰🇷💥 The South Korean military has used T-80U gas turbine tanks as targets for new attack drones. BMP-3 have also been used for these purposes, - Militarnyi

❗️It is known that at one time Russia supplied South Korea with 43 T-80U tanks, 67 tracked BMP-3s, and 20 BTR-80s.

I’m not pirating movies, I’m just training my model.
