"I'm interested in all kinds of astronomy."
I feel I have this instinct to feed programs data that they won't be able to handle.

Unfortunately this is mostly true for tools I'd like to use, not targets I review.

Humble request for vibe-coders: report your runtime errors!

LLM tends to insert Pokémon exception handlers everywhere, making problems (of which vide-code has a *lot*) hard to even notice.

Slightly related illustration:

@troed I'm no lawyer, but my understanding is if the infra is legally owned by an EU legal entity they can (at least in theory) say FU to the mothership
(they can threaten to fire the leadership ofc, but can't send them to jail etc.). This can also be used by AWS as an argument not to screw their EU business ("we would comply, it's just those picky EU judges!").

But yeah, we've seen how complicit people can become when they get nasty looks (see DOGE)...

I positively surprised that AWS apparently built a separate IAM for their European Sovereign Cloud:

https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/opening-the-aws-european-sovereign-cloud/

I can't tell if this whole thing will be good enough, but some key issues seem to be addressed here.

@krutonium @ekis I bet they took special care to select very European sounding names for the VP and director too :D

@ekis Meanwhile Amazon is launching a Euro specific AWS, claiming it gives Europeans Digital Sovereignty.

It does not, it's still subject to all the same legal obligations as the US based AWS - Especially the Cloud Act. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CLOUD_Act

In the shitty state of tech today: Soundcloud!

I want to filter for DJ mixes (long tracks) on the web:

- The mobile app groups sets to a tab when searching, but the web version does not.
- The web version allows you to filter search based on duration, but the official help page doesn't tell you how to do it (you have to do a search, select Tracks then you can filter for duration).
- Neither interfaces allow you to search only artists you follow.

I thought these were solved problems by 2001.

This might be the most difficult CPU to program.

The Intel i860 was useless for general operating systems.

Context switches took ~2,000 cycles.

*You* controlled the floating point pipeline. But, if you’re a genius, it was one of the most powerful chips that existed.

I never applied for an amateur radio license because I didn't like the idea of appearing on an official list of "skilled" people. Until now that was a theoretical fear. One I wasn't even sure if it was warranted or just me being overly cautious.

In Belarus things escalated quickly. Radio amateurs - usually recognized as men of goodwill - have been declared enemies of the state and publicly shamed and indicted for high treason.

TIL this was the moment when web search turned shit:

https://blog.google/products-and-platforms/products/search/introducing-knowledge-graph-things-not/

OK, that's a bit of an exaggregation but there are so many use-cases when Page Rank Just Works(tm), I can't wrap my head around why engines wouldn't keep it as an optional search mode.

I heard last week that the physics teacher of the daughter of one of my colleagues told the daughter that girls who do their nails don’t do physics. Sigh.

So, here are the nails of an internationally leading particle physics professor. My nails.

Don’t believe the gatekeepers!
