Australia’s first new steel mill in 35 years will run on renewables | Pearls and Irritations
In Finland, Google chopped down 250,000 trees, without a permit, to make room for a shiny new data centre. They were ordered to do an environmental impact study. They didn’t bother. That’s how AI companies do it.
If you are still using Google, maybe it’s time to ask yourself whether its services are worth a quarter‑million trees and why we have to sacrifice so much of our nature.
I met with Prime Minister of Denmark Mette Frederiksen @Statsmin@twitter.com. We discussed in detail the threats of Russian escalation, particularly against our energy infrastructure. It is clear that Russia has taken signals about easing sanctions as a green light to continue waging war against residential buildings, substations, and any other infrastructure that sustains normal life.
Right now, it is critically important for everyone in Europe to mobilize to strengthen protection against this brutal terror ahead of winter. Air defense is the top priority, first and foremost anti-ballistic defense and everything that helps intercept jet-powered “shaheds.”
We also discussed how Denmark can help provide financial support for our resilience. We agreed that our teams will continue working at their level. We appreciate that we can always count on Denmark. Thank you, Mette!
Same…
I haven’t been trolled much here or on TikTok since Ukraine bombed those data centers in Moscow.
Just sayin’.

Vi ved, at fossile brændsler driver klimakrisen. Vi kender konsekvenserne. Alligevel diskuterer vi, om Danmark skal hente endnu mere olie og gas op af Nordsøen.
Greenpeaces nye analyse sætter tal på konsekvenserne: omkring 10.700 ekstra temperaturrelaterede dødsfald.
Det handler ikke længere om manglende viden. Det handler om politiske valg.
Vi skylder kommende generationer at vælge anderledes.
I got a call from someone I don't know.
"Hi. We have a FreeBSD server. It's been working perfectly for years, but it hasn't been updated since then. We asked AI to update it, but now it won't boot anymore. It didn't even make a backup before starting. The AI keeps trying things, everything is down, and we've already spent over €500 in tokens. Can you help us?"
"Sure. €500, plus the time it'll take me to try to fix it. Assuming it can still be fixed and nothing important has been deleted."
"That much?"
Some silence.
"Well, I hope AI takes your job away!" And he hung up.
Believing that autopilot automatically makes you an invulnerable professional pilot will ruin far more people than job losses will.
I don't know if AI will take my job away, but it's already cost them €500 and, probably, their server.
Also: All these gaming PC cases typically has the space for a single SATA drive or two. I get that they'll primarily be using NVME's, but I know my dad will want to also use his computer as a computer, just like I would. Sigh.
I find it so very odd that a "sleeper pc/build" is (generally) just a PC in a functional case. Meanwhile the majority of PC cases out there today are hella impractical.
Building a new PC (of used parts primarily, because reusing, yay!) for my father, I've had a hard time finding a case that has a 5.25" bay for DVD/BR drive and a 3.5 ext. for a card reader.
I get that it's possible to do these things with USB peripherals these days, but I can't be the only one who likes to have them integrated?
I am a microbiologist with a PhD, have international research experience in infection biology and molecular bacteriology and published peer-reviewed publications, mentored junior researchers and established successful collaborations.
I am searching for a new (academic) role in Switzerland or close by. Please message me if you know of any open positions. I also highly appreciate any boosts! Thank you, Fediverse!

Heading to my parents place today i drove across a small bridge, speaking a canal. 10 meters from the side the road were 3 eagles right over the canal.
Never been so close before.
It was amazing even if it last but a couple of seconds. I had no way to pull over to take any pictures 😭
(Eagles are generally a rare sight in Denmark)
What are your pain points, folks? Stuff that you hate doing or dealing with, or problems you can't find a good solution to? Stuff that other people might be frustrated with, too.
I'm looking for a way to make myself valuable to other people, as a way to both help people and also earn an income to feed my family in the process.
One thing I can do *really well* is create reliable software to automate rote tasks, generate financial/statistical/other reports, or calculate difficult solutions. Think it can't be done without LLMs? I might surprise you!
Throw me a bone!
Please boost for reach!

Det her var... Interessant at læse
Min personlige holdning vejer vel meget lidt i alt det her, men personligt synes jeg at Danmark skylder Grønland meget, og nok ikke mindst en større grad af selvbestemmelse. Jeg synes enden på det Danske rigsfællesskab ville være en skam, men jeg ønsker også inderligt at alle parter i det er: partnere. Og det betyder også at alle der er der, er der, fordi de vælger det.
Idag efter middagspausen på arbejdet kom vi tilbage fra en gåtur til at se en fem-seks alliker jage en brud
