But the bulletproof door,
opened electronically by a hidden push button,

How the Cybertruck's design may have trapped crash survivors in flames
In at least a dozen cases since 2019, people have struggled to access or exit Teslas during life-threatening emergencies, fueling lawsuits alleging the company’s futuristic features have caused injuries and deaths.

My wife spotted this on Facebook: it’s apparently posted somewhere along Kings Hwy near Bungendore. #Christmas

Following a discussion with @… about a cybersecurity format that uses YAML, I’ve come to the conclusion that the acronym really stands for “Yet Another Misaligned Language.

It's new Brita Filter Jug day.
I bought it to replace the previous one I had for a few years. It was a ridiculous design, that needed the whole lid to be removed to fill it 🤦‍♂️
The new one has a small flap that opens for filling. Much better.

Fair Vote Canada is pleased to announce the Teacher Resources section of our website. The first teacher resource has now been added.
A Fair Vote? Rights, Responsibilities, and Decision-Making in a Democracy is an exciting new resource for Grade 5 Social Studies teachers, which was developed by the Elementary Teachers of Toronto and Fair Vote Canada.

An evening discussing falling enrollment in #STEM courses at universities across Europe, especially traditional studies like chemistry, geology and meteorology. I wonder if young people are unaware of just how interesting #STEM careers to be? Or do they have the perception it's "too hard" compared to other subjects where easier grades may be had? Or is it simply they think they can have "better"* jobs in other fields?
#AcademicChatter
*Where better might mean higher paid, more prestigious, more certain of employment, or less workload or some combination of all of these... ?

My brain is frazzled from all of the conflict. I feel like C is attacking me and accepting none of the responsibility for our predicament. I’ve tried to apologise for my shortcomings (failing to consult her on a decision I made about therapy for my son) but she’s thrown it back in my face telling me I’ve made the same mistakes before, and that she finds it hard to trust me. She says I take decisions unilaterally and don’t value her advice despite clear evidence to the contrary.

Abstract: We present an in-depth analysis on how to build and train neural networks to estimate the spatial distribution of scattered radiation fields for radiation protection dosimetry in medical radiation fields, such as those found in Interventional Radiology and Cardiology. Therefore, we present three different synthetically generated datasets with increasing complexity for training, using a Monte-Carlo Simulation application based on Geant4. On those datasets, we evaluate convolutional and fully connected architectures of neural networks to demonstrate which design decisions work well for reconstructing the fluence and spectra distributions over the spatial domain of such radiation fields. All used datasets as well as our training pipeline are published as open source in separate repositories.
