DB Infra-Go: Bahn: Für den Bau-Marathon fehlt noch viel Geld
Die neue Infrastrukturgesellschaft will allein 2024 für mehr als 16 Milliarden Euro sanierungsbedürftige Gleise und Bahnhöfe modernisieren. Doch dringende Neu- und Ausbauprojekte drohen wegen der Finanznot erneut verschoben zu werden.

anyone have a favorite web site load/stress testing tool?
Want to load test a checkout page on an e-commerce site I'm building the backed cloud infra for.

Gapped Phases with Non-Invertible Symmetries: (1+1)d
We propose a general framework to characterize gapped infra-red (IR) phases of theories with non-invertible (or categorical) symmetries. In this paper we focus on (1+1)d gapped phases with fusion category symmetries. The approach that we propose uses the Symmetry Topological Field Theory (SymTFT) as a key input: associated to a field theory in d spacetime dimensions, the SymTFT lives in one dimension higher and admits a gapped boundary, which realizes the categorical symmetries. It also admits …

OK, blog kind of limping along. So here's first post since 2018 about my infra rebuild. Today just describing what I had before and what the situation was before all this started.

Wow who could have predicted that putting the fate of American EV infra in the hands of one crazed billionaire might go poorly?

@… There’s probably lots of good reasons not to, but I wonder if they could change the notification to show which number they *think* you’re calling from. Presumably their system knows, it’s just a question of whether it could be hooked into the notification sending infra.

infrastructure mgmt methods compared as a thermostat:
- managed service: email butler to change thermostat
- SaaS product: the office thermostats are fake
- console/manual: you light the furnace yourself
- terraform/bash (the CSV/JSON of programming): ??? the robotic arm manipulator at a nuclear facility tries to set a thermostat, but it's clunky and brittle
- ansible/kubernetes: you order a medium rare thermostat. it tries to hit that temperature but might not be a good cook. you speak secret incantations.
- python/typescript/golang: you have much more precise chefs.
- literal service API thing reconciling state: you've written a thermostat (k8s lets you write your own drivers)
the terraform version of this is... one and done "infrastructure as code"
the literal reconciler thermostat thing... is that... "infrastructure as daemons"? "infrastructure as... APIs"? Infra as services?

Computational Study Based Prediction of New Photocatalysts for water splitting by systematic manipulation of MXene surfaces
The compositional and structural flexibility of functionalised two-dimensional metal carbonitrides or MXenes has been exploited through a combinatorial search for new materials that can act as catalysts for photo-assisted water splitting by absorbing sunlight with energy in the infra-red region. Detailed calculations on 49 Janus MXenes where two surfaces are of asymmetric nature are carried out by first-principles Density Functional Theory. A screening procedure is adopted to arrive at potentia…
