Correlation does not prove causation! One popular example: shark attacks are more likely when ice cream sales are higher.

This relationship does not suggest that ice cream sales somehow cause shark attacks, however. Rather, both are related to some third factor—in this case, the activation of mind-control satellites, which are used both to market ice cream and to control sharks.

Including the two new #curl CVEs, the share of all #curl CVEs that are "C mistakes" are now at 39.16%

A trend? A fluke? We need to give it another half-decade or so to be able to tell for sure.

(Flaws listed as "C mistakes" are vulnerabilities that we deem are likely to not have happened should we have used a memory-safe language rather than C)

Apparently the White House is assessing ways to “persuade” women ti have more children.

I can save them a ton of time and energy:

Universal healthcare

Universal basic income

Childcare & paid time off

Education

clean air & water

Affordable housing

Legalized abortion

Address climate change

Stop Being Fascists

It’s really not that hard.

New Amiga game engine: Sevgi Engine

Sevgi Engine is a new open source video game engine which provides the required tools and generates the boilerplate code to create high performing Amiga games using only the C programming language. It is built around the ScrollingTricks archive by Georg Steger:

The outright wrecking of the scientific infrastructure in the US under the current administration chilled me to my bone. Kept me doomscrolling. But I finally found a way to do something positive, in a small way: I dedicated some storage space and a bit of my internet connection to a decentralized backup of deleted research data.
I am happy to report that @SafeguardingResearch 's torrent swarm now has ca 14 TB storage and a Gbit connection more.

Happy Birthday to Rachel Carson, marine biologist, author and environmentalist extraordinaire, who was born on this day on May 27, 1907, in Springdale, PA. Her book Silent Spring and other writings are credited with igniting the global environmental movement. Shining a light on the dangers of chemical pesticides, the book led to a nationwide ban on DDT and other pesticides and ultimately led to the creation of the EPA.

ok I feel completely insane asking this but like weren't we NOT blowing up rockets, like, 50 years ago. weren't we successfully sending rockets up that did not rattle apart. also weren't we like "ah yeah that was a fail" when the rocket fell apart instead of calling it a "partial success"
