Posting some typical north American power infrastructure in response to a discussion earlier today.
This pole is in a downtown area and is mixed transmission, distribution, and communications.
Top lines with largest spacing are transmission, feeding to a substation the next block over. Probably 100 kV.
The ones on the cross arm are distribution, probably around 10 kV. Both 3 sets are 3 phase.

Power pole with three wires at the top each attached by long insulators and four below on a T shaped cross arm. A transformer can be seen near the bottom of the frame

The Fedi just *shines* when we do Big Ideas. Herewith a very civilised conversation about gender, power, violence, colonialism, and how to unthink all the rubbish we get taught. Follow the thread right through; the original claim that "testosterone is more dangerous than CO2" is not the best way to challenge toxic masculinity, but the discussion includes more measured voices.

In other words, we as a campus community have an active debate about which debates are even worth having — and we have room to exercise judgement about which voices we as a community choose to amplify.
Amplifying all voices is not a route to free society; it’s a route to total noise. Flooding the zone is just as effective a means of censorship as silencing all opposition. As people trying to foster useful discussion, we have an obligation to choose choose wisely our topics of discussion and the voices we elevate.

Pushing back on the idea that GenAI is "just another tool" for coding.
This comes up all the time in discussions on its use in open source software. People will fall back on the argument that it's like linters or autocomplete, and all that matters is whether the code passes muster. But it's not. In addition to the ethical issues, GenAI is a fundamentally different kind of "coding tool" and needs to be considered differently.

Just thinking about the political discussion going on here these days... Seems to me we need better labels. 'Right' in English has the unfortunate connotation of 'correct', and 'Left' the connotation (but perhaps only among the better read) of 'sinister'... I think new terms without that baggage are required. I propose that the Left<->Right spectrum be replaced by the Nobel<->Ignoble spectrum, which is more objective accurate in any case.

Tell the city administrator that infrastructure co-ordination is NOT optional and there will be one group responsible, no discussion, no debate, here is your order. That group checks with the departments, province and utilities on what is coming up for the next 12 to 18 months. Also, if there is an emergency they are consulted so that ALL parties are informed.

“… smart glasses are becoming slimmer, less noticeable […], raising concerns not only about exam integrity, but also about broader privacy risks.”
Maybe I missed it, but so far I haven’t seen much discussion of the risks posed by #smartglasses in academic settings in particular, for both students and instructors.

Some speculative discussion whether having a bin on your head counts as a hat for the purpose of parliamentary rules.

There should be more discussion about the costs of AI related to their actual added value in organisations. It is great to have an enormously capable model like Fable5, but is it worth it, can't we do the same tasks or parts of those tasks with much cheaper models?

It’s been described as “the mother of all earthquake faults,”
the source of both our geological birth and, perhaps, our ultimate undoing.
But the most unnerving thing about the San Andreas fault these days may be its silence.
It’s a mystery scientists are still trying to unlock.
The San Andreas is central to any discussion of California.

I am having an interesting discussion with my GB grid #FiT administrator about its view on me adding #plugInSolar to my existing #gridTied

In classrooms and public events and private conversations, my campus regularly facilitates discussion (often heated) about the virtues and dangers of capitalism and Marxism and every economic theory you can think of, about human rights and AI and abortion access and data centers and civil wars and genocide and myriad other subjects of •extreme• controversy.
We do not, however, make space for and amplify people who believe the Earth is flat, because that would be a f***ing waste of time.

When, in 2024, Chinese scientists reported developing an artificial-intelligence tool to design conotoxins, it raised eyebrows in some quarters.
In an e-mail to a private AI and biotechnology discussion group seen by Nature, a senior US government employee flagged the study as a possible biosecurity risk.
The employee, who asked not to be named because of concerns for their job, felt it was especially concerning that the conotoxin AI is based on an open-source protein language …
