Im Discord so:

Als Betreiber einer kritischen Infrastruktur hat Swisscom eine besondere Bedeutung für die Schweiz. Der Bundesrat erwartet, dass der Telko diese Rolle künftig stärker ausfüllt.

KRITIS ist im Grunde voll der Lacher:

  1. Wir privatisieren hoheitliche und sicherheitskritische Aufgaben.
  2. Oh, Scheiße.

Swisscom soll zur Sicherheit der Schweiz beitragen

True story: I once spent an afternoon scrolling through someone's Facebook account to find out when he had acquired each of his cats because he had named successive releases of a software package he maintained after the damn things in the order in which they joined his family and I needed to know whether Pickles came before Chocolate or vice versa.

Kicking off a new series today! I will be going Beyond the Statushphere demo with tips and common gotchas when developing applications on ATProto. First up is why and how you can get a user's PDS's URL to use in your applications you build.

Beyond the Statusphere: Part 1...

Beyond the Statusphere: Part 1, Resolving the User's PDS - HItchhikers Guide to the Atmosphere

Learn why it's important to resolve the user's PDS and use that in your ATProto applications.

Any chemistry nerds out there? I'm trying to experiment with seed scarification using normal 20% acetic acid as a substitute for the more advanced method using concentrated sulphuric acid. Is it possible to calculate how much longer I would need to soak the seed if I knew the concentration and time of sulphuric acid used?

Given my natural aversion to *usted* in Spanish and *vous* in French, I'm starting to think that out of consistency I should adopt the Quaker *thou* in English.

Unfortunately it's a tough bind because the Quakers originally adopted it out of a democratizing instinct — *thou* was the familiar second person and *you* the formal — but in the modern era it sounds archaic, making it sound MORE formal than *you*.

Also it's a very weird thinking to do.

This is a pretty interesting article about Quaker use of *thee* and *thou*: friendsjournal.org/2007098/

I knew about the general phenomenon and the justification, but I didn't realize that it had come full circle with some Quakers using thee as an informal register 😅

Also a culture war with proxy battles fought over pronouns sounds familiar 😂

TL;DR: Major insurers are seeking regulatory approval to exclude AI-related liabilities from corporate policies, citing concerns over the unpredictability of AI models’ outputs as too risky to insure. techcrunch.com/2025/11/23/ai-i ⚖️ 🤖

AI is too risky to insure, say people whose job is insuring risk | TechCrunch

Major insurers including AIG, Great American, and WR Berkley are asking U.S. regulators for permission to exclude AI-related liabilities from corporate policies. One underwriter describes the AI models’ outputs to the FT as "too much of a black box."

주가 6만원선 붕괴하고 사용자 이탈 늘자…비상 걸린 이 회사 “다시 원상 복귀”

With all the fighting in the world over religion it is about time atheists become less apathetic and start knocking on doors spreading the word that sky fairies do not exist

The Apple Passwords app has the most infuriating bug, where the autofill dropdown for username / password is sorted in a different order than the one for 2FA/TOTP.

I don't understand how this slipped through. This is such a noticeable paper cut if you have two accounts for any website!!
