Well that's an excessively low bar.
OpenSUSE for pried from my hands because the college I work for set up a Cisco proxy server / 2FA that I couldn't get to work with openconnect, and Cisco's AnyConnect won't run on it.
After a few weeks on Rocky, I am desperate to go back.
I really understand this as a starting position, but it can definitely be taken too far. I feel like the details matter a lot.
A few years ago there was a big dust up in the Julia community when they wanted to add a small amount of telemetry to the package servers - basically the plan was to identify real users from things like CI runs, and to be able to identify the number of unique users , which matters a lot, especially for grant writing (and a lot of academics use Julia, so this would be a boon to the ecosystem).
The core devs were super up front about it, offered easy opt-out, and even were receptive to a plan that would switch from unique identifiers for downloaders to some scheme that would give an accurate count without the ability to trace a particular download to a particular user, but a couple of prominent members of the community were incensed.
Oh hello! I remember chatting with you in the comments section of my science blog (We, Beasties) over a decade ago 😊. Nice to see you in the fediverse
"backing up" biospecimens and other physical samples is not as easy as baking up data. Freeze/thaw often degrades things, and volumes maybe be quite small and not amenable to aliqoting.
Great! I can move stuff around a bit so it works a bit better in a circle. I can also share a transparent and white-background version to play with - the bugs are a bit translucent, so just removing the background with Photoshop/Gimp won't work that well
This is real. I'm a white guy with every advantage, a PhD from Harvard and nearly 10 years of research after my PhD,, but it's still rough out there.
I'm geographically limited - I'm sure if I were willing to move anywhere, things would be a bit easier, but still.
Curry carrot kraut:
- grated carrots
- sliced shallots
- curry powder (about 1tbsp/pound of carrots)
- 2% w/w salt
If you've got a dehydrator, dry out a batch and crumble a bit on everything
Here too - where do I sign?
I mean, biodiversity feels a bit far afield for me, but happy to take it on.
I'm happy to help out in any of the communities that I'm likely to frequent. I'm not so into archaeology, but I'd do anything biology/programming/scicomm related
You said a bunch of things you like about cinnamon, and nothing that you don't. Is there something motivating you to switch?
