Enjoy!

Why is the UK scaling back jury trials, and why is it controversial?
Right to trial by jury seen as a touchstone of the British justice system, but severe court backlogs may prompt change.

For breakfast this morning, I grated one of these tromboncino, mixed with chopped spring onion, lemon thyme, salt and pepper, an egg and a spoonful of flour, shaped into patties with wet hands and fried them in a little olive oil. Put a poached egg on top with some cherry tomatoes on the side. So good. #permaculture

TIL that the behavior of the “sort” utility differs between MacOS and Debian Linux.
[UPDATE: See replies; the behavior depends on the LANG value in surprising and pernicious ways.]

Good Morning #Canada
Sunday mornings should include some relaxation, a good cup of coffee, and a tale of one man forging a legacy of independence. Today we present to you the story of American businessman Russell Arundel who, in 1949, claimed sovereignty over approximately 4 acres of Outer Bald Tusket Island, off the southern tip of Nova Scotia. After purchasing the island for $750, Arundel announced the principality of Outer Baldonia with its own charter, a flag, currency, passports, and an organized military that consisted of 69 fishermen (all Admirals). Citizens of the principality who caught a Bluefin tuna and paid a $50 fee were accorded the rank of prince. Government officials included Prince of Princes Russell Arundel, Chancellor Elson Boudreau, and Ambassador Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary Ron Wallace. The Canadian government mostly ignored the farce but an official Russian communication declared Outer Baldonia a fascist state.

Well. This seems like good news:
«In this study, we evaluated 57 synthetic carbohydrate receptors (SCRs) for antiviral activity in cellulo using pseudotyped virus particles (PVPs) from six high-risk viruses across three families: Paramyxoviridae, Filoviridae, and Coronaviridae. Four SCRs inhibited all tested PVPs, and their efficacy was confirmed against live viruses including SARS-CoV-2, MERS-CoV, EBOV, MARV, NiV, and HeV. Notably, SCR005 and SCR007, which exhibited minimal toxicity, …
