What's with "reports" and "spotted"?!

Samsung put out a whole press release officially announcing this on March 22nd.

Where in the source article does it say anything about "burying the cable roughly one and a half meters deep" or "bore a horizontal tunnel"?! If they were going to bury this, surely they would trench, not bore. And it's not clear they are burying it at all. The infographic seems to show it on the surface of the ocean floor. And it shows that the cable is one and a half INCHES THICK, not meters deep. SMDH.

Oh very much, yes. I use Feedly, which is... fine.

This article weirdly leaves out the WHY. (WTF?) So let me explain:

Amazon has their own version of Linux and when using AWS there are advantages to using Amazon Linux, like built-in commands and libraries that (obviously) integrate with their cloud services.

Previous versions (1 and 2) were more CentOS/RHEL-based. The newer version (AL2023) is more based on Fedora. So of course more updates are pulled from the Fedora-verse.

The number of AWS instances migrating now is because AL2 will be deprecated in about a year. AWS is keen to remind people to upgrade (not a bad thing, of course) and so people are dutifully doing just that.

I like the woman quoted who's upset about the message this sends to kids regarding grammar and punctuation. She's not wrong. But more importantly, what about the message it sends to kids about CS?! That the world should bend to accommodate buggy, unsecure programming? Um, no... pass a law that mapping software should properly accommodate real place names. That's not a big ask; it was your job in the first place.

That's a lot of words to say absolutely nothing. I have not the slightest hint of what the article might be about.

Wow, no one here knows who Gayle King is?! The correspondent and interviewer here is Tony Dokoupil, not Gayle King. It's Dokoupil who asks an AI to make a web site for his co-anchor, Gayle King. I mean Gayle King is legend, but she didn't do this piece.

Bezos' New Shepard rocket uses hydrolox propellant, which means it uses one of the most climate-friendly types of rocket engine we have to date. It outputs water vapor. Other rockets emit a lot of CO2 and other nasty stuff; this specific rocket does not.

...and the building is called St. John's Terminal. It's over two miles from Hudson Yards.

Google's NYC campus is in Hudson Square, not Hudson Yards. Google is not "already leasing a 1.3 million-square-foot building in Hudson Yards". Google's 1.3 million-square-foot building in NYC is the new (well, reconstructed) one that they were going to lease, but now buying, in Hudson Square.

I built covidehelpmap.com. It helps connect individuals and organizations in need with individuals wanting to help. It's ideal for helping individuals and smaller organizations that are currently falling through the cracks of the many (excellent) larger efforts to help major hospitals, etc. Anyone can post a request for help on the map, or an offer to help. It's set up for everything from PPE to help with groceries and dog walking for those in quarantine. It only works when lots of people use it, though, so if you like the idea, please help spread the word!

I made a website to help connect people with 3D printers (and other ways of helping), with organizations (including hospitals) near them that are in need. If you have a 3D printer and want to help, please add your info to the map at:

Thank you. This is the only scientifically accurate comment so far.

This is not about people innocently using a lot of data on an unlimited plan. This is a plan that offers unlimited phone data (and, so far, they really do mean unlimited) and 7 GB of high-speed tethered data. (After that, it's automatically throttled.) People in question are very aware of that 7 GB cap because they are installing special apps to circumvent its enforcement. The apps make tethered data look like phone data. That's not innocent and not OK.

...are already quite common. That's nothing new. Fully automated subway trains have been deployed all over the world. I recently rode one in Barcelona (the new L9/L10) and it was quite nice. That should be (relatively) uncontroversial. Busses navigate extremely complex environments. Subway trains navigate remarkably simple, controlled environments.
