Has anyone here generated their own keys? I’d looked into it before and it didn’t seem too complicated (but never tried).

It’s more like the rule is right for the wrong reason, but it’s an interesting article - even if it does feel like an ad for that fancy thermometer at times.

The challenge: https://atcoder.jp/contests/awtf2025heuristic/tasks/awtf2025heuristic_a

It’s similar to the kind of thing you do in Advent of Code, but instead of a single answer, you’re competing for the most efficient solution.

Looks like the BBC reworded this title, I assume so that my fellow readers don’t also get confused about this woman that had sex with thousands… of videos‽

But none for SQLite extensions, which is what the article is about.

The image is a reference to this analysis done in World War II, which might seem to suggest that the planes need more armour on the wings and tail, but actually shows that these areas aren’t important and that the engines and cockpit need armour if the plane is to survive to make it back to base (where the stats are correlated).

The surviving planes showed a bias in the data that leads to an incorrect conclusion, just like the surviving woody gymnosperms makes it seem like there weren’t non-woody gymnosperms.

Well, not any more by the sound of it.

A previous version of this claimed that it could distinguish between male and female mosquitos (the ones that bite). It used the different wingbeat frequencies, if memory serves.

It feels that a point-defence system is less harmful than gassing the whole area, which is what e.g. hotels do now.

This was mentioned in the article, although not the fact that it was faked.

I can believe that the tech has improved enough to not need faking this time around.

I fact checked that bite force stat and yup, Giant Panda 1.30 kN vs Lion’s 1.32 kN.

source: nice article quoting Bite forces and evolutionary adaptations to feeding ecology in carnivores (Ecology).

I can save you a click by saying it’s a Discord bot that notifies when people join the voice chat, but it’s a nice read and not too long.

I thought that /dev/shm was strictly for shm_open() but it seems that all that does is open a file in /dev/shm anyway.

I like the idea of hydro since watering plants is a bit of a dark art (your plant is unhealthy often means you’re watering too much or not enough).

I had to look up DWC (Deep Water Culture) and the page was talking about fast growth as one of the benefits. If you’re not growing crops, I can see that being bit undesirable - have you noticed high growth levels?

Has any other design project ever gone from “we can’t use that because it looks like a vagina with teeth” to “that looks like a penis with teeth but let’s go with it?”

Also, that timing’s terrible luck on the part of the artist.

No man-made object has generated so many sci-pop headlines over the years!

I added banana (for scale) and it’s on the up and up: https://www.vidarholen.net/contents/wordcount/#fuck*,shit*,crap*,bastard,penguin,banana

If you want to have a tables version (the 90s called!) in one page (without serving different versions), then you’d probably have to have that in the page the whole time then override that with CSS, or just have two versions in the page and use CSS to show the correct version (I’m not sure if Links2 supports any CSS like display: none).

It’s more about things similar to Microsoft Recall, I don’t think whistleblowers are going to send their messages where other people can see their screen.

I never knew about the spaceship Easter egg, good fun.

Edit: it’s the recent Android version easter egg that’s mentioned in the DISALLOW_FUN section.
