Bioinformatics isn’t used only for medical research or within big companies. Sub-topics like metagenomics, that are helpful in many areas of research, require high level of technical knowledge, that the life science people don’t have.

You can work in bioinformatics, the pay is lower than FAANG, but your code will benefit society.

They are not limiting their foot print to 1/4 acre. They are using bikes, using glass and forge the forest.

It’s like offloading your aluminum production to another country and claiming you are living 100% on renewable.

A folding solar panel to charge electronics using USB.

A small radio+torch+USB port that can be charged with a spinner and a solar panel.

The current Iranian government raised up after a revolution led by Marxists and Islamists. After they dropped the previews government, the Islamists turned on the Marxists. This is why we have pictures of secular society from 50 years ago taken in Iran.

I don’t know, I assume, the Marxists got manipulated again now along with far left.

Russia already managed to organize both pro and anti demonstrations inside the US to get USA citizens to kill each other on other topics.

No reason to think people’s critical thinking was upgraded.

In addition to other comments,read about Ada Lovelace. She was brilliant, she wrote the first program, and done so before we had computers!

It is being done remotely, no need for USB.

You should sandbox your phone and assume the government may know everything that goes in it.

Pegasus and the like already shown it can be entered with no click zero days.

I really don’t get it, I moved to NixOS some years ago. Okay, first few months I had to fiddle with configurations and add some packages that were missing. Everything past those early months was a blast.

Replacing a dead laptop? The most time consuming part (for me) is making a bootable USB. After that I can push my already ready made configuration and just back to where I was (backs ups are important).

Working on different versions of Python? No problem, a small nix script for each environment.

Working with different versions of GCC? Same as Python.

Everything just works. And if I fuck around I can revert the change. I can easily experiment in a way that will no fuck affect my ability to work.

At work we have Ubuntu, and I got the conclusion that nuking Canonical’s offices will be a blessing on humanity. They manage to deliver broken packages for years, even packages that work well on Debian.

If I’m reading their CEOspeak right, their objective is to fire the very experienced people, that costs a lot of money, and replace them with people that costs less.

I never worked at Google, so I don’t know for sure, but it sounds like the Python team is important and that this will backfire. As the people that costs less will also be less skilled, and Python is an important piece for AI/ML research, where Google is already lagging behind. The AI people in Google will get lower quality help with Python, and Google will lag even further behind.

That what happens when the CEO is an MBA and not an engineer.

It’s June/July temps in mid April here. Messed the plant life and bird migration around here.

Where did I say they shouldn’t?

My message comes within a context.

Improvements in storage allow for longer transportation. This is but one example.

There are many other improvements, from more efficient water usage to reducing the need for other costly interventions.

Some may be possible to allow richer agriculture in poorer areas, reducing the need for distribution.

Pegasus, and probably other tools, can infect phones through ads. Google’s ads network is a weapon.

Your comment is unrelated what-so-ever to what I wrote.

Ten percent of humans suffer from hunger. This is much bigger than just Gaza.

I’m not rich, I chose to earn less money and live a lower quality apartment.

We don’t have many years to work on solutions. You may never have enough for you and yours.

Green revolution?

The newest solution I know of is using optimization algorithms to vastly reduce the cost of experiments on vegetables storage. They not only showed how to optimize storage, they also showed how to store certain types cheaply for 4 times long.

One of the issues is food distribution, and that will help there.

Oh wow, people are talking about it.

In the real world, not enough techies are willing to work on solving problems related food shortages (for example), while people are starving to death.
