People say that they should teach "filling our your taxes" in school.
My 22 year old did their own taxes this year, and the most difficult part of doing their taxes was "creating a login to the state DOR website in order to submit them", and asking me for where the 1095-C document that I had on their behalf was.
"Doing your taxes" is annoying for many reasons, but the reasons aren't ones that can be resolved by teaching the process in school.

The quadruple spectroheliograph of Meudon observatory (1909-1959)
The spectroheliograph was invented independently by Henri Deslandres (France) and George Hale (USA) in 1892, following the spectroscopic method suggested by Jules Janssen in 1869. This instrument is dedicated to the production of monochromatic images of the Sun in order to reveal the structures of the photosphere and the chromosphere at various altitudes. Sporadic observations started in Paris, but Deslandres moved soon to Meudon and designed, with Lucien d'Azambuja, an universal and powerful i…

What is now clearly a pro-Russia Republican caucus has consolidated inside Congress.
The lesson is clear:
Anyone who seeks to manipulate the foreign policy of the United States,
whether the tin-pot autocrat in Hungary or the Communist Party of China,
now knows that a carefully designed propaganda campaign, when targeted at the right people,
can succeed well beyond what anyone once thought possible.
From the first days of the 2022 Russian invasion, Presid…

EG-ConMix: An Intrusion Detection Method based on Graph Contrastive Learning
As the number of IoT devices increases, security concerns become more prominent. The impact of threats can be minimized by deploying Network Intrusion Detection System (NIDS) by monitoring network traffic, detecting and discovering intrusions, and issuing security alerts promptly. Most intrusion detection research in recent years has been directed towards the pair of traffic itself without considering the interrelationships among them, thus limiting the monitoring of complex IoT network attack …

The northern spy 🍎 is trying but is falling to leaf. It appears infested by spider mites 😢. I just manually wiped safer soap onto the branches and carefully onto the buds to also try to loosen the webbing. It might not be saveable. But we'll try!!

That weird feeling when a side project of a side project of mine feels more influential than everything else I do in my side project department.
I feel like Shcherbina as portrayed by HBO's 'Chernobyl' miniseries. I stand next to powerful people and I feel I'm influential, but the truth is I'm not.
