@cdarwin@c.imAt least 80% of the world lives under light-polluted skies
—a figure that rises to 99% in America and Europe.
A paper published in Science found that between 2011 and 2022 the night sky grew almost 10% brighter each year.
With so many places awash with artificial light, people are increasingly seeking out the darkness.

@netzschleuder@social.skewed.dedom: Animal dominance archive (2022)
Animal dominance interaction data published over a century of research. The archive contains 434 agonistic interaction datasets, totaling over 241,000 interactions. A directed edge (i,j) corresponds to an antagonist interaction between i (winner) and j (loser). If a 'weight' edge property map exists, it counts the number of such interactions.
This network has 6 nodes and 26 edges.

@philip@mastodon.mallegolhansen.comOver the past couple of nights I've been setting up my Mastodon server on a new Ubuntu 26.04 VM (The original server was set up using Digital Ocean's "One click install" on 20.04 back in 2022).
I feel like a teenager again, in a good way. I haven't had this much fun messing with computers in a long time.
@BugWarp@wikis.worldI think those of us who lived the heartbreak of Argentina's team since 2006 (and even before if you are older) would have signed with our blood for a championship in 2022 and a final in 2026 so no, it's not a failure by any means.
I never liked Scaloni's way of setting up the team, and while Spain are the deserving champions, I know we could have done a better match against them.
Anyways, it was an amazing ride, and I can't wait to do it again.

@bibbleco@infosec.exchangeJust did very approximate calculations; with 10g of lithium per drone*, and assuming the Russian and Ukrainian drone efforts consume 5m units a year**, that'd be ~50 tons of lithium deposited into the environment per year, mostly within, let's say, 50km of the grey zone***. It's only about $20,000 / ton****, which means $1m of metal*****.
So to answer my own silly question: no, it won't be economically viable to scalp the top few inches of topsoil and extract the lithium from it.
* Roughly right for quadcopters / small FPV; larger and longer range ones will have more, so this is a bottom bound. (OTOH longer range UAVs will tend to use ICE kerosene rather than batteries
** Changing all the time as both sides try expanding production as fast as they can manage. Ua are scaling much faster at time of writing
*** Handwaving. Contact zone's hardly moved since early 2023; OTOH Ua are pushing range limits on small battery-powered form factor, saw a 60km claim for the Logistics Lockdown operation the other day
**** There was a big spike to the $70-8000 range in 2022; median price is closer to $10k than $20k
***** (IDK the chemistry but presumably it's in an exciting range of different compounds, depending on how many bits the battery was blown into, how hot / pressured the blast wave was a few tens of mm from the boom, what other stuff was in the vicinity that the lithium would combine with, etc etc.
@adrianco@mastodon.socialThe knowledge graph is stored in a sqlite database, nothing is updated or deleted, and all entitles and links are all time scoped, so you can ask questions like what gearbox was in my lemons racecar in 2022. It's also designed to be fully cached so it will work when there's no network connection, and sync later. I’m going to build a mobile front end when iOS27 ships. It's very easy to use, take photos with your phone and talk into it and the transcriptions and images are processed into updates.

@hanno@mastodon.socialA Linde Green Hydrogen plant was delayed for 4 years due to safety repairs and an accident💧🔋
Last year, I learned that a ferry in Norway was supposed to be powered by green Hydrogen made in a Linde Electrolyzer in Leuna, Germany, that likely wasn't operational yet.
Recently, I received hints that the electrolyzer still had problems. So I dug deeper: the first start-up was interrupted due to safety concerns, lengthy repairs and an accident followed.

@cdarwin@c.imFirst, let’s talk about “grokking”.
In 2022, OpenAI published a paper showing that if you train a model on a simple dataset
(for instance, a simple mathematical operation like division),
and keep training it long after the training looks like it’s stalled out,
the model will suddenly make a massive jump in capability.
Why does this work?
The first stage of training is like rote memorization:
the model has to compress as much of the training data as…
