The one and only @pluralistic kicking off his @pycon keynote talking about how scheduling apps for nurses buy a nurse’s financial data in order to gauge their wages, i.e. pay them less if they’re in debt.

This week, former Labour MP Ian Austin used these pages to argue that Britain should press ahead with a new trade deal with Israel – and ignore the growing calls, including mine, for trade sanctions instead.

There’s a total moral vacuum at the heart of his argument.

He offers a series of statistics and anecdotes about the benefits of trading with Israel, of being its ally.

The image shows a map with a focus on France, highlighted in a light peach color. A blue box overlay provides specific data about France. The text within the box reads: "France, Statements of support collected online: 542,368, Threshold: 55,695, Percentage: 973.82%." The map background is white, and the surrounding countries are depicted in various shades of blue and green, with France being the most prominent. The data suggests that the number of online statements of support for France far exceeds the threshold, as indicated by the percentage.

🧠 Awakening Again to the Dream 🧠

In a continuation of the daily amalgam, the "surprise, this is reality, really-really it is!", another substantial change of pace and place has arrived in due-time.

Returning to California, after one year and two states in-between, could only be induced by accepting an offer from Cerebras Systems - the supercomputing company.

The role is quite nice, as I'll be the first hired "Storage Architect, SMTS", focused on research and design of integrated solutions for Ai/HPC Cluster Infrastructure. Super fun stuff! It's really quite a dream job, and I'm very excited about all of it - more so than any other job I've had in the past twenty five years.

Perhaps not widely known outside of the sector, Cerebras powers research at CERN, Los Alamos, Sandia, Argonne, Lawrence Livermore, DoE, Mayo Clinic, AstraZenica, GSK, Nference, Aleph Alpha, and many others.

Here's a new javascript implementation of my #ilo vm, and #pali assembler. This will not yet run #konilo as it lacks the block storage device currently, but is proving useful for testing smaller things & fixes some issues w/the original implementation. I'm hoping to expand it to be able to run the full system this summer.

for those of us isolated by situation, location, or nature, i recommend living a sustainable lifestyle, and supporting the ones around you who are at a disadvantage. Not everybody can organize or join organizations. You will have an impact by modelling how to live sustainably, and how to support those in need.


Braccio di Ferro La Meravigliosa Lampada di Aladino


In questa versione animata di Aladino, il marinaio è il protagonista, che si mette nei panni del eroe delle Mille e una notte, affiancato dal genio della lampada per combattere un mago cattivo che vuole rubare la lampada. Non manca Olivia, la principessa da salvare, e le sempre utili scatole di spianaci, che, anche qui, tirano fuori il nostro eroe dai guai durante le scene d'azione — perché chi ha bisogno di abilità quando si ha una scatola di spinaci che risolve tutto?

It's not just a love song, right?

'Cause your best just ain't good enough
And you feel the world has grown cold
And you're drifting out all on your own
And you need a hand to hold, darlin'

(Reach out) Reach out for me
Hah, I'll be there to love and comfort you
And I'll be there to cherish and care for you …"

‘Parts of the media and political class know mass death in Gaza cannot be obscured for much longer, not even after Israel has barred foreign journalists from the enclave and murdered most of the Palestinian journalists trying to record the genocide.
Cynical political and media actors are trying to get in their excuses before it is too late to show remorse.‘

NYU denies diploma to student who criticized Israel in commencement speech


New York University said it would deny a diploma to a student who used a graduation speech to condemn Israel’s attacks on Palestinians and what he described as U.S. “complicity in this genocide.”

Logan Rozos's speech on Wednesday for graduating students of NYU’s Gallatin School sparked waves of condemnation from pro-Israel groups, who demanded that the university take aggressive disciplinary action against him.

In a statement, NYU spokesperson John Beckman apologized for the speech and accused the student of misusing his platform “to express his personal and one-sided political views.”
