Only a few regions on our planet - just west and east and especially inside of the dark zone in this NASA map which is mostly the Pacific Ocean - will have a good view of the full totality from 11:04 to 12:03 UTC of the #LunarEclipse today, but there will be webcasts galore to try out:

The real cost of random I/O
How good is the random_page_cost default, and should you lower it on modern flash storage?

Interesting LLM nuance: why does using phrases like "you're a pen-tester" cause chatbots to emit substantially different predictions, and basically "follow" that instruction? Because of how LLMs work, this implies that the training data has plenty of examples where real humans told each other that they were some role and the humans just immediately jumped into that role without question or intervening dialogue. But that's not something people do in normal conversation. Even in playing-with-kids contexts if you drop that out of the blue you're probably going to get "no I want to be a robot" or "but you were the elephant last time!" rather than immediate assumption of the assigned role.
It's possible that training LLMs to predict immediate role-assumption is something the big models spent a lot of manual effort on. But what I think is more likely is: it's the legacy of role-play forums! All those reams of pages of teenagers (yes, often horny) pretending to be Captain Kirk or their own incredibly cringe "cool" character (but honestly, why call it cringe, let kids be kids and have fun)...
So next time you "tell" a chatbot "you're a..." to get it to do what you want, I'm pretty sure you have an RP forum teen from the past to thank :)

"Evolving the 3-2-1 backup rule for more resilient data"
#RDM

Evolving the 3-2-1 backup rule for more resilient data
Background: Many resources and professionals reference the 3-2-1 backup rule as an effective strategy to prevent active research data loss. However, the changes in storage technology and the pace of research data growth have outgrown the 3-2-1 rule. Objectives: The authors want to contribute background information and invite community input to evolve the 3-2-1 rule to fit modern research data and storage better. This evolution would provide better information to research data management profes…
