Russia’s Ministry of Justice designated Human Rights Watch

effectively banning the group from operating in the country.
Human Rights Watch noted that Russia had already forced the closure of its Moscow office in 2022.

One of my professors asked me today how I would balance the principle of least privilege against efficiency and ease of use in a large organization with thousands of employees.
The best answer I could come up with is that any single organization that size is an unholy abomination, and that I would move mountains to not be in that position.
Seriously, I'm sick of the question "How can this be scaled?" The better question is, "Would scaling <thing> be a net…

"An LLM helped me with some task" is not a good argument for these things increasing productivity. Did you also factor in all the cases where it made you slower? Where the output created extra work? And how much of your work/activity is that task?

Anti-hyperuniform Critical States of Active Topological Defects
Topological defects are fundamental to the collective dynamics of non-equilibrium systems and in active matter, mediating spontaneous flows, dynamic self-organization, and emergent pattern formation. Here, we reveal critical states in active nematics, marked by slowed defect density relaxation, amplified fluctuations, and heightened sensitivity to activity. Near criticality, defect interactions become long-ranged, scaling with system size, and the system enters an anti-hyperuniform regime with …
I think it's pretty good write-up but I don't agree with the "it's complicated" conclusion of the author.
If an organization that is entrusted in doing public good is out of nowhere taking away ownership of open source software from their maintainers—it seems pretty clear who the villain is; especially if their main sponsor (who is likely behind this) _refuses to make any statement_.

Jeg opplever at samfunnet jeg lever i er urettferdig, splittet og vanskelig å trives i. Jeg ser hvordan arbeidslivet i Norge blir stadig mer styrt av kapitalkrefter, staten og store byråkratiske organisasjoner, samtidig som rommet for selvstendig kamp og solidaritet snevres inn. Likevel kjenner jeg at det finnes et driv i meg, en vilje til å stå imot og en tro på at vi kan bygge noe bedre dersom arbeiderne tar styringen selv.
