Editorial independence means technological independence.
From Google to Microsoft, European newsrooms often rely on tools built in Silicon Valley. Some are trying to break free, turning to open-source alternatives or home-grown solutions.

Weekend #Plankton Factoid 🦠🦐

An Efficient Algorithm for Exploring RNA Branching Conformations under the Nearest-Neighbor Thermodynamic Model
Background: In the Nearest-Neighbor Thermodynamic Model, a standard approach for RNA secondary structure prediction, the energy of the multiloops is modeled using a linear entropic penalty governed by three branching parameters. Although these parameters are typically fixed, recent work has shown that reparametrizing the multiloop score and considering alternative branching conformations can lead to significantly better structure predictions. However, prior approaches for exploring the alternat…

Everything hinges on the subjective interpretation of condition #4: "Making an obvious action which CLEARLY IMPACTS ON THE ABILITY OF AN OPPONENT TO PLAY THE BALL"
Webb: "Only Donnarumma truly knows if he was impacted by this and we have to look at the factual evidence."
I'm screaming at Owen to ask, "if only he knows, what evidence do you see that he is clearly impacted?"
If none, the condition isn't met and thus the on-field decision …

Nicolas Guillou cannot shop online.
When he used Expedia to book a hotel in his own country, the reservation was cancelled within hours.
He is “blacklisted by much of the world’s banking system”,
unable to use most bank cards.
Guillou, you see, has been sanctioned by the United States,
putting him on a 15,000-strong list alongside al-Qaida terrorists, drug cartels and Vladimir Putin.
Why?
Because alongside two other judges of the international crimin…

For some time, I had the feeling that even the 9000 series may become irrelevant pretty fast. IMO, this move places the 7000 and 9000 series on the very long-term support list. But it's a bloody sacrifice, what they do to the 6000 series owners :/ Strangely, I feel for AMD having to make thеsе kinds of tough decisions. They must've absolutely stretched out their resources right now.
