Australia is failing to meet its environment targets, argues ecologist
Australia is one of 17 “megadiverse” countries that account for 70% of Earth’s biodiversity. However, Australia is unique in having the highest mammalian extinction rate in the world. That makes conservation on the island continent, where most of the wildlife is found nowhere else on Earth, all the more urgent. Conservation and environmental scientists have […]

Excellent deep dive into that mysterious and overlooked cyberattack last December on Venezuela's state-owned oil company, which may not have been a ransomware attack but a US-originated wiper.

You know how you’re in the middle of a process and you refresh a web page and it loses state?
So that sucks.
With Kitten¹ – when using the new state-maintaining/class-based and event model-based component model – it’s easy to have flowing interfaces that animate between states, etc., that don’t lose state if you refresh the page (or open another tab).

However, I’ve been falling asleep for the last three weeks to around 30 minutes of the book thanks to a 10-minute sleep timer and going back to start from where I fell asleep. At this point it’s basically medicine.

When Using AI Leads to “Brain Fry”
As firms increasingly incentivize employees to build and oversee complex teams of agents—for example, by measuring and rewarding token consumption as a proxy for performance—people are finding themselves pushed to their cognitive limits. Participants in a recent study described a “buzzing” feeling or a mental fog with difficulty focusing, slower decision-making, and headaches. The authors call this phenomenon “AI brain fry,” defined as mental fatigue from excessive use or oversight…

Okay, resume rewritten and we're now on hour 3 of the red beans and sausage part of red beans and rice that I'm having for supper. Feeling pretty productive, gonna send out the first batch o' resumes once I read over the new resume. However, one slight problem: the entire house smells delicious...I am so very, very hungry.
