"This article charts the privacy–public safety debate with a focus on its relevance to a sound philosophical, legal and ethical position on E2EE for Aotearoa New Zealand’s legal system ... Ultimately, Aotearoa New Zealand should adopt a technologically and legally defensible position rather than enacting emotionally clouded emergency legislation in the wake of a crisis exacerbated by E2EE."

#TalDíaComoHoy en 1976, la NASA anuncia que está buscando nuevos candidatos a astronautas y, 1ª vez, las mujeres pueden postularse. Entre las 35 personas finalmente elegidas se encontraban 6 mujeres: Rhea Seddon, Sally Ride, Kathy Sullivan, Shannon Lucid, Anna Fisher y Judy Resnik. #WomenInSTEM
In its 3D printed case, it looks like a giant polyphonic analog synth, but under the plastic lies a pneumatic heart: the sound is actually being made by slide whistles. We always thought of the slide whistle as a bit of a gag instrument, but this might change our minds. The sliders on the synth-box obviously couple to the sliders in the whistles. The ‘volume knobs’ are actually speed controllers for computer fans that feed air into the whistles. The air path is possibly not ideal– there’s a bit of warbling in the whistles at some pitches– but the idea is certainly a fun one. Notes are played by not blocking the air path out the whistle, as you can see in the video embedded below.
Since the fans are always on, this is an example of a drone instrument,like bagpipes or the old hacker’s favourite,the hurdy gurdy. [Chris] actually says in his tip– for which we are very thankful– that this project takes inspiration not from those projects but from Indian instruments like the Shruthi Box and Tanpura. We haven’t seen those on Hackaday yet, but if you know of any hacks involving them,please leave a tip.

By a ready list, I mean a data structure like a stack or queue that collects newly added items and then gives them back to you one at a time, but where you don't care what order you get them back in. Surprisingly many basic algorithms can work with these in place of anything more constrained; the theory behind why they work involves antimatroids.
The preprint is on using this idea to solve an abstract optimization problem of finding subsets maximizing the minimum quality of any element, where the quality of an element within a subset decreases or stays the same when you remove other elements. To make this more concrete, the attached image shows an example: finding a polygon in a set of points whose sharpest angle is as large as possible.
We show that the max-min-angle polygon in a planar point set can be found in time $O(n\log n)$ and a max-min-solid-angle convex polyhedron in a three-dimensional point set can be found in time $O(n^2)$.
Well, that sleep was disappointing. You'd think after a 26km walk across hills, I deserved more than a bare 5 hours

Here's a link to a 15-minute video I recorded while pausing for my sandwich at the most beautiful spot on the way up a valley I hadn't explored before. The trail followed a mountain stream, broken by a series of small waterfalls on the ascent to its source 😘

Incidentally, if anyone would like to mention the hypocrisy of having a school motto of "Excellence | Integrity | Curiosity | Community" while suspending a student for personally exemplifying exactly those things, it might be a good place to begin an email...

"I have been suspended from my high school for challenging a federal minister about his continued support for Israel and the genocide in Palestine.
I am a year 11 student at Coburg High in Melbourne, and Assistant Minister for Defence Peter Khalil visited our school this week. When I saw him on my way to class, I asked him about the government’s continued support for the Israeli government as it carries out genocide.."
The Four Continents Paying Homage to Amsterdam, Artus Quellinus (I) (workshop of), c. 1650 - c. 1653 The front and rear elevation of the Town Hall are each dominated by a sculpted marble tympanum approximately twenty metres in width and surmounted by bronze statues. This design for the rear façade shows the four (then known) continents bringing prosperity to Amsterdam. It symbolizes the Amsterdam merchants’ worldwide trading network.

This is a war crime. Israel just bombed a prison ward where trans people were kept locked up. Hundreds of trans people exterminated. There is no rational explanation for this.
L'anarchia, «è un' aspirazione umana, che non è fondata sopra nessuna vera o supposta necessità naturale, e che potrà realizzarsi secondo la volontà umana». Questa «aspirazione umana» si pone oltre ogni valenza razionale e teoretica perché deriva da «un sentimento, che è la molla motrice di tutti i sinceri riformatori sociali, e senza del quale il nostro anarchismo sarebbe una menzogna o un non senso. Questo sentimento è l'amore degli uomini, è il fatto di soffrire delle sofferenze altrui».
New at my Patreon... Sleeper trains are having a comeback in Europe - so I caught 4 of them on my rail trek from London to Istanbul. Here's what they were like:
At least they're not promising to use it for some half-assed anti-phishing technique. (I vaguely remember that happening too many years ago. Could have been a bank too. Or, I don't know, Yahoo.)
"How can we make people excited about their net banking?" "Give better service?" "No" "Lean on the telcos to make caller ID reliable, and shut down scam centers?" "Nah" "What about a new background image?" "!"
The wording is weird, but I can see why they'd send out this kind of notification.
You spend years trying to train your customers to only enter their internet banking credentials into the real bank website, and to look out for anything that doesn't quite look right. And now the bank is going to roll out a new login page that doesn't look like the old page.
@jamesh I can see some logic in that, but they’d be better off reminding their customers that any phisher can mimic every cosmetic aspect of a web page easily, and what the customers need to focus on is the page’s precise URL and certification status.

I think we had all noticed that reported wastewater levels weren't corresponding to the infection rates that we were seeing within our own communities.
I thought the 2020's had fully kicked the capacity for false hope straight out of my soul, but it turns out that I was still foolishly grasping for reasons why the low wastewater levels 'must' be 'true'.
