There was an endless coming and going of sun, clouds and rain. Not to forget about the wind. I called it quits a bit earlier and went into the woods.
Towards the end I was completeley surrounded by rain curtains in all directions. This looked super cool. I thought I might make it home just in time without having to use my umbrella, but the rain clouds were way quicker than I anticipated. Just after the rain hit me, I met an acquaintance who just started his walk. The wind picked up hard and rain hammered down, mixed with snow. Holding the umbrella was a workout. Shortly after I returned, the rain stopped again.
I didn’t notice the kestrel sitting on the tree when I took the last photo. That was a nice surprise when I sorted through the nearly 300 pics.

Actually wait I just thought about this and realized that the precise timing of the ACTUAL GitHub seed bank, by which I mean the Arctic Code Vault, on 2020-02-02, makes it more or less a perfect snapshot of pre-Copilot GitHub. Also precisely timed before we all got brain damage from COVID. This is the only remaining archive of source code by people with a fully working sense of smell
(Bonus points because the Arctic World Archive is located in Svaldbard and that’s the name of the AI in Stacey Kade’s “Cold Eternity”.)
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org no wonder I picked that cake (albeit coincidentally), I adore almonds, and hazelnuts! Your teammates are absolutely amazing, dude! A very nice project farewell! On leaving places I have a small anecdote.
I know someone who on 3 February 2004 left his job to go elsewhere. At the time his teammates threw a party, and gave him a very nice portable storage. Twenty days later, he returned, and jokingly they asked him for the storage, and money spent on farewell party back. I heard, from a close source, that he gave them his middle finger, but don’t quote me on that. 😂😂😂

Segunda notícia que leio do mesmo jormal, mesmo dia, sobre a #AmálIA.
Este pôs-me ligo a resmungar com o título - e não melhorou.
O título é: “Equipa de peritos” está a analisar “possíveis impactos legais” do Amália, incluindo nos direitos de autor
Pôs-me a resmungar porque o projecto até já era para ter sido lançado, agora tem data de lançamentk para setembro (sim, este mês) e afinal… ainda nem fizeram aquele que devia ser o primeiro passo? Então e se agora afinal os dados não podem ser usados? Ou uma parte deles - vão tirá-los da base de dados iniciais e retreinar os modelos?
A questão é tão óbvia que até os jornalistas se lembraram de a fazer. E aí é que comecei mesmo a resmungar. O responsável pelo projecto podia ter dito “a legislação não impossibilita o início dos trabalhos.” Porque claro que não impossibilita. Mas o problema é que iniciar os trabalhos com todos os dados sem saber quais é que vão ser excluídos pode até ser contraproducente. E se afinal nenhum pode? Lá se foram os 5.5M€ que a brincadeira custou?
Mas a resposta foi pior, foi “Sendo um projeto público, desenvolvido em ambiente de investigação e seguindo um modelo de código aberto, a legislação não impossibilita o início dos trabalhos.”

[47°09′02″S, 126°43′57″W] Waiting for carrier
We finally got a caliper donated for this year’s scout flea market. We didn’t sell it, but kept it ourselves. It will come in very handy every now and then in our material store. For example, I missed having a caliper in the past when sorting our random assortment of screws or measuring the depth of a hole. It’s a wee bit banged up (probably happened during transport) and didn’t come with a box, but the latter is now solved.
The lid and bottom came from a wardrobe back panel I got from a mate, the sides were rocket sticks in their former lives. I found some scrap of felt in our material store and some hinges laying around in the drawers of my own workshop.
Unfortunately, the table saw teared up the plywood veneer fibres badly, even though I put tape around to prevent that. This is the first time it didn’t work. At. All. To cover that up, I painted the box with some decades old tinting paint (price tag says Deutsche Mark, not Euro!) from my paint cabinet. It’s awesome, works absolutely perfectly and doesn’t smell the slightest bit. I reckon, this caliper box is plenty good enough for occasional use at our scout material store.
[47°09′43″S, 126°43′02″W] Carrier too weak
Ontem, partidos na AR propuseram e debateram medidas para apoiar viticultores do #Douro 🍇, depois de a 02 de julho pequenos e médios produtores se terem manifestado, na Régua, para alertar para dificuldade no escoamento da uva e a venda a preços baixos, enquanto os custos de produção sobem.
Quais são as propostas e soluções?
O PS quer uma linha de apoio financeiro aos viticultores.
O PCP quer a fixação de preços indicativos mínimos, a manutenção do benefício e a limitação das importações de vinho a granel.
O CH quer uma linha de crédito mas para as cooperativas e empresas”, não para os viticultores.
O PAN (que parece achar que uvas para vinho e de mesa é tudo o mesmo) quer
“maior clarificação na atribuição da rotulagem e certificação” e que o excedente da uva possa ser comprado pelos municípios e disponibilizado nos refeitórios locais - além de um plano de mitigação e adaptação do setor aos efeitos das alterações climáticas.
A IL concorda com o Governo: se a vinha não está a dar, arranca-se a vinha.
CDS acha que é continuar o que anda a ser feito.
PSD diz que o “Governo está a trabalhar há meses num plano específico para o Douro”, mas pelas afirmações durante o protesto o plano deve ser “arrancar vinha”.
BE alterta para as tarifas do Trump.
Livre quer “soluções novas”.
JPP só confirma que o stock está cheio.
