my least favourite part of our garden is the hedge we share with the neighbour (who are extremely nice).
Thus, when I do maintenance of it... I tend to be a little more brutal.
like say.... cutting any branches on our side down to the stump.
it grows so fast! it also harbours evil ivy and holly bushes

If it wasn't enough that we have to keep building new kernels every day and backport vulnerability fixes to older LTS branches, now we also have to deal with upstream doing random backports that are completely broken and never bothering to actually even check if they build.

The git history command deserves more attention
Working with lots of changes in parallel on git can be painful. You end up juggling branches and commits, and running scary rebase -i commands that can leave your tree in a half-broken state if you so much as sneeze. jj, an alternative to git, gets discussed a lot these days (1, 2, 3, 4) and is often pitched as a solution. While I’m very sold on the problems jj is trying to solve, the way it solves them hasn’t quite hit home with me. Every 3 months, for the last 1.5 years, I try it out for …

I've finally finished pushing the latest update for #Gentoo Distribution Kernels, and requested their stabilization. This includes upstream releases 7.0.9, 6.18.32, 6.12.90 and 6.6.140; and Gentoo patch bumps 6.1.173_p1, 5.15.207_p1 and 5.10.256_p1.
All of these contain the v5 #Fragnesia patch. And yes, while the exploit is in the wild, upstream still hasn't merged a fix to the mainline kernel, let alone all the LTS branches. Of course, the patch keeps covering more holes, but it would really be preferable to do that as a followup instead of leaving people vulnerable and forcing us to keep rebasing it.
They also include a few reverts in 6.18 and 6.6 for broken PowerPC backports that upstream didn't apparently test. 🤷
We're doing our best, but I'd still recommend running the latest 7.0.x kernel, or LTS 6.18.x, because upstream is far from reliable with the backports.

A few highlights from the Turkish-Persian section of a random carpet symbolism book I skimmed while stopped at a random library in New Jersey a couple days ago

Tree of life: one of the oldest and most universal symbols of mankind. It supports the sky, and provides a path from earth to heaven. In different cultures it is called by names such as haoma, asherak, yggdrasil, irminsu or asvattha. Thus, one often sees it in prayer rugs, as a reminder of the passage from this existence into a higher life.
Diamond or Lozenge: It has been conjectured that this omnipresent motif in Anatolian kilims is a male triangle attached to a female triangle, and thus signifies creation. There are doubtless many interpretations. A diamond surrounded by hooks is called in Turkish kirkbudatz, 'forty branches'. Among some semi-nomadic pastoral (terekme) tribes of Azerbaijan, a favourite symbol is a large diamond, signifying woman. Smaller diamonds within the large one signify a pregnant woman or her progeny. A …
Celestial creature: Recognizable because flames appear from flanks or shoulders.
Arabesque or Tendril: The basic unit of the arabesque, a favourite Islamic decorative theme, may be described as a split leaf seen in profile, called islimi in Persian. Derived from a Sassanian motif, it developed under the Abbasids in the ninth and tenth centuries, and matured under the Seljuks in the twelfth and thirteenth. It became central in Turkish and Persian carpet design only after the fifteenth century. In its fascinating fully developed form one sees interlaced lattice systems of sp…

Back in 2022, after #StormArwen, I rolled up a section of the fence around my wood so that I could haul fallen timber out of the south end of my wood. There's still a lot of fallen timber there, but I think I have hauled out as much as I practically can. So today I decided to get the fence back up.
Of course, brambles had grown through the rolled up fence, so it was far beyond my stre…

Starting the unroll. The winch line from the tractor is taken through a turning block at the farm gateway, and hooked into the roll. There's a mess of fallen timber in the foreground, which will be outside the fence once it is back up, and which is destined to become firewood. Behind, the wood is still a mess, but the young oak trees along the edge of it are just coming into leaf.
(This picture is accidentally on its side, my apologies) Starting the unroll. The rolled fence has been pulled clear of the weeds, and is unrolling under the branches of the oak trees.
The fence more or less fully unrolled along the edge of the wood. Some of the fence posts are broken and will need to be replaced.
The fence fully unrolled and tensioned, but not yet upright.

Reducibility of spectral curves of finite Jacobi pencils
B. Shapiro
arxiv.org/abs/2605.14817 arxiv.org/pdf/2605.14817 arxiv.org/html/2605.14817
arXiv:2605.14817v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: We consider finite pencils of Jacobi matrices \[ J_n(w)=A wB, \] where $A$ is diagonal and $B$ is tridiagonal with zero diagonal. The spectral curve is the affine plane curve \[ \chi_n(\lambda,w)=\det(\lambda I J_n(w))=0 . \] The main question is to describe when this curve is reducible. We prove generic irreducibility for fixed pairwise distinct diagonal entries and discuss several elementary reducibility mechanisms. Besides disconnected Jacobi chains, constant eigenvalue branches, and reflection-symmetric components, one must also take into account reducibility caused by scalar diagonal blocks. We formulate a reducibility conjecture and record low-dimensional evidence and counterexamples to several overly optimistic classifications. A central point of the picture is a codimension-growth principle: apart from the cutting divisors $b_i=0$, genuinely connected primitive reducibility should move to higher and higher codimension as the size of the chain grows.

There have been a few wonderful conjunct holidays this year, like Ramadan and Easter, but tomorrow for us is excellent indeed: Beltane/May Day and Buddha Pūrṇimā.
So here's the moon at dusk, viewed through our glorious ornamental cherry tree.

#Buddhist #fullmoon

The almost full moon, shining between flower-laden branches of a cherry tree. The sky is a cobalt blue dusk; the flowers are pale pink, and the leaves are maroon. There is a house just visible behind the tree, and beyond that an ink-black sea.

Why go looking for some false flag conspiracy or whatever when we have this in plain sight:
- Tight, rapid comms coordination between a would-be authoritarian government and supposedly independent public figures
- That messaging control extending across supposedly independent branches of government; total collapse of checks and balances, replaced with government by PR strategy
- Mass consolidation of both news media and social media under the control of the billionaire backers of said authoritarians

The path is flanked by tall trees, their trunks and branches creating a natural tunnel that adds depth and a sense of mystery to the scene. The trees are a mix of deciduous and evergreen, with some branches bare and others adorned with sparse foliage, suggesting the transition of seasons. The …

Trees have a hidden climate superpower: They keep absorbing carbon long after growth stops
For decades, forests have occupied a central place in discussions about climate change. Trees remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, convert it into organic matter and store part of that carbon in their trunks, branches and roots.

Outside my bedroom window.
It’s been an extremely dry winter, only a few inches of snow since the beginning of Fall.

I haven’t paid attention to when leaves have appeared in previo…
