An #OpenSource Guide to Marine #OilSpill Detection
The sheer scale of #ocean #oil #pollution is staggering. In Europe, a suspected 3,000 major illegal oil dumps take place annually, with an estimated release of between 15,000 and 60,000 tonnes of oil ending up in the North Sea. In the Mediterranean, figures provided by the Regional Marine Pollution Emergency Response Centre estimate there are 1,500 to 2,000 oil spills every year.

#50forFOSS is live! The official announcement post is here: dev.to/isaacdlyman/50-for-foss….

I'd love to see a couple hundred #developers who love #FOSS sign up today. If you drop your email at 50forFOSS.org, you'll get a monthly reminder that spotlights FOSS projects the community is excited about.

It's a small thing, and I'm happy to do it by myself, but a little support will go a long way. Let's make FOSS more sustainable, together.

I always appreciate it when a translator -- in this case, a writer in English discussing his translation of Chinese debates about AI safety and security -- makes clear when certain linguistic usages are difficult to port over into English

I just read The Dunwich Horror again I confess I still can't see the romance plot Amazon's AI was perceptive enough to notice.

MS has been really making poor UI decisions the last few years... 😅


So, who's excited for the coming #SocialCreditSystem ? You think the #AI everyone is complaining about is the end of it? The #SocialCredit only works if there's an AI combined with #CCTV #surveillance .

What are _you_ going to do about it today?

"The mountains are calling, and I must go."
In 2015, I put thru-hiking the John Muir Trail on my bucket list. In August 2025, I'm making it happen! Pending permit, I'll set out southbound from Yosemite Valley on a 211-mile trek to the 14,505ft summit of Mt. Whitney.

I'll formally start training in a couple weeks. My plan is to spend gradually longer times in and around Yosemite, going from long dayhikes to several 4-day wilderness trips with a full pack.

I'm pumped!

Force of Nature by Joan M. Griffin. Given my age and sex it was easy for me to relate to her challenges.

I hope you’re able to leave from Happy Isles, but you do what you have to do to fulfill the dream. It’s a shame that it has to be that way, though. You’re right, Whitney being the highest point in the lower 48 makes it a great finish, but even it has its restrictions due to humans overrunning it to bag the prize.


Donald Trump’s angry post attacking Taylor Swift is drawing backlash from his own supporters.
