do not let #UPenn brag about #KatalinKarikó
when was the last time you saw a male ADJUNCT ASSISTANT professor win a #NobelPrize?
denying her tenure & demoting her is how universities commonly commit #WageTheft by withholding :
— hundreds of thousands in pay equity
— tens of thousands in comprehensive health care
— tens of thousands in retirement / pension money
— tens of thousands of dollars in sick day, vacation & sabbatical equity
#UPenn owes Karikó MILLIONS for her work

… But after spending *days* debugging JVM memory issues inside of k8s containers, I'm starting to just think of the JVM as a liability.
OK, it's been that for a while now, I guess. The point has just been recently refreshed in my mind. 🤪

@protonmail When this popped up for me and I saw it was enabled by default (a theme with Chrome "features" recently), it pushed me to ditch Chrome on all my computers. (again).
Thankfully alternatives have gotten a bit less bad than the last time I tried them out.

One of the funny things about ActivityPub is that we originally had a charter to develop a social API, with an option to make a social federation protocol.
The ActivityPub federation protocol has been very successful. The entire API is only implemented in a few projects, which I think is a mistake, but I hope to see improve over time.
Some people think the parts of the API not needed for federation drag down the spec, without realising that the protocol wouldn't exist without the API.

I spend way too much of my life trying to get Apple devices to do incredibly simple things that they're supposed to be able to do easily and by default.
(Today's case in point [ha]: disabling the sound my AirPods case makes. It's just a toggle button in the settings...but it's grayed-out and disabled for no apparent reason, and multiple Apple support-recommended hard resets have yielded no results.)

BGP is the yellow pages that hangs the internet together with string.
Pretty incredible blog about BGP here from @benjojo https://blog.benjojo.co.uk/post/bgp-path-attributes-grave-error-handling
Talk to go with the blog: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6wMXEiFiueM&cbrd=1
Tl;dr - if you fuzz BGP attributes, you can very easily find ones which propagate to every router and crash routers. About half of vendors have easily reproducible issues. None of the vendors have bug bounty programmes. Or in other words, you can own the internet in your underpants.

NEW ANALYSIS: Heat pumps have seen huge growth in Nordic countries.
Heat pumps sold over 30 years contributed to a -72% drop in CO2 emissions from heating in Finland, -83% in Norway & -95% in Sweden.
How has this been achieved?

The other day I noticed that the Dragon Warrior rom actually has 2 different fonts stacked on top of each other.
NES tiles are stored as 2 bits per pixel, so if something only needs to be 2 colors, like a font, you can store Font 1 in the first bit of each pixel and Font 2 in the 2nd bit.
If a pixel is Color 0, it's not part of either font. If it's color 1 or 2, it's unique to Font 1 or Font 2 respectively. If it's color 3, it appears in both fonts. Then you set your palette accordingly.

The city of Atlanta recently doxxed all 116,000 people who had signed the stop cop city referendum, releasing full names and addresses. An anonymous group has decided to dox the Atlanta Committee for Progress board members in turn - a group of powerful people with corporate and industrial interests pulling strings all the way up to the mayors office.
You can find their full statement along with the (rather long) list of board members at the archive.org link below.

So, interesting that getting a COVID vaccine was easier when the government was handling its distribution and somewhat harder now that it’s being handled by the market.
It’s almost as if government is good for some things.
