The world is heading to add 57 superhot days a year, but study indicates it could have been worse
The world is on track to add nearly two months of dangerous superhot days each year by the end of the century, with poorer small nations hit far more often than the biggest carbon-polluting countries, a study released Thursday found.

Panel asking what nostr doesnt fix?
Relay centralisation could enable censorship, and the UI asking users to manage private keys is tricky.
Could one app become a centralisation choke point? They say no. Agreed. Nostr has very good migration here, if one app goes bad it's easy to move.
Privacy is not solved here, since almost all content is public anyway, by design. But since so users have public keys, it's a step towards enabling privacy. Agreed, and at least clients won't generally spy on every mouse click and scroll pause.
No mention of the thing I think most important, that censorship resistance means poor moderation that means bullying, spam, and harassment. That's tricky to solve I think. The fediverse model seems more suitable for good moderation.

Filipino tele-operators remotely control Japan’s convenience store robots and train AI, benefiting from an uptick in automation-related jobs.

"PHP is the lingua franca of affordable web hosting options; or, in other terms, the Toyota Corolla of programming languages: boring, solid, easy, and affordable. You can find, almost anywhere in the world, an affordable web hosting with the saint quadrinity of LAMP: Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP; an OS, a web server, a database server, and a scripting language, in an inexpensive package, enabling the masses to go further. Paraphrasing George Clooney, what else?"

The Toyota Corolla Of Programming
In 1995, an otherwise unknown software developer released the first version of a new scripting language whose explicit aim was to make applications for this new platform called "The World Wide Web". After starting as a small project, and thanks to the crazy dot-com years, it grew dramatically to become one of the most widely used programming languages of all time. After some stumbling first steps, it eventually got some sort of standardization in 1997, even reluctantly including some OOP featur…

openflights: Openflights airport network
A network of regularly occurring flights among airports worldwide, extracted from the openflights.org dataset. Nodes represent airports, and direction of edge (i,j) indicates a regularly occurring commercial flight by a particular airline from airport i to airport j. Multiple edges may exist between a pair of airports if multiple airlines offer that flight, or if one airline offers multiple such flights each day.
This network has 3214 node…

More framework added. Dresser shelf/draws and the closet taking some shape.
The varnish/paint arrived and a test shows it way too dark. Almost black to my eyes in that dark room. So some other sample tins ordered. Hopefully one of them will be closer.

chess: Kaggle chess players (2010)
A network among chess players (nodes) giving the chess match outcomes (edges), for game-by-game results among the world’s top chess players. The direction of edge (i,j) denotes white player (i) and black player (j). Each edge is timestamped (approximate). Edge sign is 1 for a win by white, 0 for draw, and -1 for a win by black.
This network has 7301 nodes and 65053 edges.
