It seems to be mostly from instructables.com, though there are other sources here and there. A search for 'multimeter lead' lead to much better results than instructables though.


Just discovered the existence of large scale armed political extremist groups in the States. Wow. And both left and right wing with any kind of mix of ideologies, too. I wonder how many of them are able to use a computer to find the myriad holes in the world's infrastructure.

Here is a really nice book to give some perspective: End times, by Peter Turchin Best most terrifying birthday present I ever got, I think.

Actually I think I'll put it as a post in and of itself, folks here may like it.


For additional insight, we are not actually able to fully model a single bacterial culture, gene expression is random and we are barely getting to know one gene at a time when considering dynamics and not just steady state (we also have some idea how to represent an average bacterium's gene expression at steady state, if they were all doing the same thing, but they aren't)

As far as I know, we are actually closer to (less far from) in vitro models where you culture human cells into organs very close to real ones and apply drugs to those organs. I think they already do that with skin for cosmetics but everything else is far away (key word: I think, not sure).


I mean, it doesn't need to be centralised on a single entity

There was https://tea.xyz/ that does something like this, kind of, to a point, using a blockchain approach to see which packages are used. An extension of the same concept to gits would be interesting?


Maybe "Redhat for individuals" would be a better business plan?

You charge 20 bucks for month, and from this you pay 10 straight to OSS developers and with the other 10 you hire a team to offer a N1 level of support to your customers. You could also provide a repository of "vetted software" to prevent scenarios like the xz attack.


I've actually come across and started using Pyjion recently (https://github.com/tonybaloney/pyjion); how does Pypy compare, both in terms of performance and purpose? There seems to be a lot of overlap...
