Checked to see if I could go skating out by the cabin, since it was down to -20 and clear last night. I got nice photos though!

@livs_ord Hoppas @pettter kan hjälpa som med ljudlig person än jag, för min del brukar det räcka med att ratta pulse audio control tills alla lämpliga inputs och outputs sitter ihop.

@phil @sahil Even with that taking more of the load, mirror.accum.se / ftp.se.d.o serves over 1TiB/day of debian packages and package lists.

Come work with me!

Currently hiring a devops role to help refine our current services and build new ones for scientific computing:

I heard from someone who's been involved in national AI strategy work that the highest political pressure here (Sweden) comes from CEO fear of missing out, especially from the biggest corporations.

@micke Ja, vi hade en workshop där den här veckan, och det råkade passa med när det går att besöka där nere.

Went on an ATLAS cavern tour. Very cool!

@alcinnz
Personal, yes. Scientific, no.

@webhat @quinn Same.

As I noted, we're currently deporting gay atheists to Afghanistan because their asylum applications did not have "sufficient cause to be granted asylum".

The bar has been set almost impossibly high by racists, and the discourse is rather about ending the right of seeking asylum altogether.

We can hope (and vote) for improvements, but I don't see that happening on a useful scale in the next few years.

@quinn Unfortunately, the political direction the last decade or so has lead to an extremely harsh asylum environment. If we're sending gay men back to Afghanistan, I would not hold much hope that any Americans would be considered having "credible" claims by the people doing the deportations.

@pettter Så svarar jag härifrån.

@jimcarroll
The only poll that actually matters is the polling booth.

@whitequark
The mobile app I'm using has a single click button to fetch replies as they are seen from the original post's server.

I am guessing that this isn't a priority from the mastodon team because it is a competitive advantage for their mega-instance.

Don't forget the old Nokia management style:

@VeroniqueB99 No picture, but the english version of a sign in a sandwich shop in Beijing was "sanity is very important". We assume they meant "sanitation", but...

@malwaretech
I read from @mjg59 that after crowdstrike broke linux clients with their buggy kernel hacks a few months ago, they got an eBPF implementation contributed to be less shit, but I can't seem to find the reference right now. Maybe he could fill in? @gunstick

@nextcloud Relevant to your interests, @pettter ?

@ddlyh
No, no recording of this, but I'm happy to answer any questions.

We'll work on making a better simulation tool (the spreadsheet model is getting rather messy, and is full of sharp corners) as well as writing this up in a paper.
