OLPC’s $100 laptop was going to change the world — then it all went wrong
The $100 OLPC laptop was supposed to revolutionize education and close the digital divide. But in just a few years it was recognized as a failure, a symbol of tech industry hubris, a one-size-fits-all American solution to complex global problems.Adi Robertson (The Verge)

Das Bild zeigt eine appetitlich angerichtete Dessertplatte auf einem Tisch. Im Zentrum der weißen Tasse befindet sich ein Stück Tiramisu mit einer Schicht dunklen Schokoladenpulvers darüber. Neben dem Tiramisu sind verschiedene Früchte wie rote Beeren, Kiwi, Ananas, Weintrauben und Erdbeeren angeordnet. Ein großes Eissphere liegt in der Mitte der Tasse, und eine Schicht Schlagsahne mit Schokoladenstreifen ist darüber dekoriert. Zwei Gabeln und ein Messer liegen auf einer weißen Serviette neben der Tasse. Die Tasse ist auf einem grauen Tisch platziert, und das Licht scheint von oben zu fallen, was die Farben der Früchte und des Desserts hervorhebt.

GAO rejects DOGE attempt to land at congressional watchdog agency
The Government Accountability Office told the DOGE acting administrator that it is part of the legislative branch.
Elon Musk’s DOGE tried to place a downsizing team at the Government Accountability Office, but the congressional watchdog rebuffed the intrusion, according to an internal bulletin viewed by POLITICO’s E&E News.
DOGE recently contacted the congressional watchdog with plans to “assign a team” to the office, according to the bulletin sent to all GAO staff on Friday. The move would be a significant expansion of DOGE’s effort to shrink U.S. federal agencies that are managed by the executive branch.
But GAO responded with a letter to the DOGE acting administrator, the former health care and tech executive Amy Gleason, explaining that the office is situated under the legislative branch and works for Congress, not the president.
“As such, we are not subject to DOGE or Executive Orders,” GAO wrote, according to the bulletin sent to staff Friday.

L'immagine mostra un esempio di codice Python per convertire un file PDF in un file DOCX. Il codice è scritto in un blocco di testo con il titolo "Convert PDF to docx using Python" in grassetto. Il codice importa il modulo pdf2docx e utilizza la classe Converter per convertire il file PDF "clcoding.pdf" in un file DOCX "clcoding.docx". Viene mostrato anche un log di conversione con informazioni dettagliate su ogni fase del processo, come l'apertura del documento, l'analisi, il parsing delle pagine e la creazione delle pagine. In alto a destra, c'è un'immagine di un file PDF con il logo Adobe Acrobat, e in basso a destra, un'immagine di un file DOCX con il logo Microsoft Word.

"Marco Rubio recently lamented that people who were alive in Ukraine are dead today 'because this war continues.'
Not exactly. They’re dead because Russia killed them in an ongoing attempt to subjugate their country. The war isn’t a natural disaster out of anyone’s control, like, say, a hurricane."
