@QOTO Just tested everything on the new version of and it works great so far!

All of 's services have recently been upgraded to their latest versions. Let us know if you see any problems. Below is the full list of effected services.

NextCloud - cloud.qoto.org

GitLab - git.qoto.org

GitLab pages (including user hosted pages) - https://*.qoto.io

I wonder, how many new genes are present in dog's bread in captivity which are completely absent from wolves in the wild. I'm curious of our breeding has led to mostly/entirely phenomenological genetic changes or if there has been genetic mutations as well, which might suggest a path of speciation is occuring.

Xoldie is here setting up the first Deaf Instance on mastodon!

Looks like the impeachment didnt work out for the democrats after all, it just made Trump more popular than ever...

I;m reading an old publication i was most of the way through writing that describes a way to model the gene regulatory network as part of a Machine Learning algorithm.

I feel lke i really need to finish writing this paper, its too powerful an idea to just let die...

Is it just me or did VSauce get better since I stopped watching it. Just watched a video and I have had two distinct points of insight where im like "oh shit I never thought of that"

I'm no virologist but in my mind I dont understand how quarantining a city will address the problem with the outbreak.

The whole outbreak started with one person of course. with it infecting a whole city even if the outbreak is entirely limited to that city how will quarantining help long term. Eventually they need to remove the quarantine and vaccines are years away. When they eventually do if even one person has the disease still then it will just start al. over again.

Obviously it makes sense to qtine individuals who traveled from an effected area for a set number of days to see if they are carrying the disease before releasing them. That sort of quarantine makes sense. But a whole city, not sure how that will help.

Did you know has one of the highest user retention rate of any server in the fediverse?

We do not and have never deleted inactive accounts. Despite this ~25% of our registered users are still active after over 2 years of operation. Compare this to most other servers and we see typically a retention of ~10% or less.

To me this is the most important statistic to measure the health and success of a server, ultimately it tells me the people who come to QOTO ultimately enjoy it here and want to stay!

One of the coolest #library displays I've seen: with my son at the #Bibliothèque et Archives nationales du Québec (BAnQ). I walked right past but at my son's eye-level, he spotted it. Just in the stacks, a little projector hides behind some cut-out books and projects ghosts onto this display, which appear to glow.

Another one of Absinthe's programming challenges. These are always a lot of fun, i suggest some of you get in on them.

Okay folks, this should be simple, but maybe not.

The goal is to write a function that takes a positive integer and returns a list of its prime factors. So if you did 12 you should get the list [2, 2, 3]

As neither 1 nor zero are prime, as a result should return an empty list.

This is taken from a , so if you have not done this one I encourage you to do so. If you are not into then solve it however you like.

@freemo Here's the idea. A group of people gets together (well virtually)
1. Brainstorm a project
2. Design the project
3. Code the project
4. Release it to the wild
5. Start over

There is a little more to it, but that is the basic flow. Add whatever other fluff is involved in a club. :)
