I have seem some tomfuckery in my time, but this one is absolutely baffling.

The mugshot we’ve been waiting for.

On 25 August 1991, Linus at age 21 announced Linux project/system in a Usenet posting to the newsgroup. Here is original email that changed IT world forever. Happy Birthday, #Linux kernel.

Also, here’s an electric bus in Fairbanks, Alaska, that worked fine at -40F below zero.

It never got close to 40 below during the Texas freeze, yet we still lost power (and WATER pressure - toilet didn’t flush) for days.

The batteries on the bus were apparently winterized, telling me they actually can work even well *above* 0F in Texas 🙄

“Alaska’s first electric-powered school bus is performing well – even at 40 below”

This tweet got a lot of love during the ‘21 freeze. I would assert that if the batteries are properly designed and weather-proofed, they’re fine.

The issues here are logistics and greed. We’ve been told to winterize the grid - we don’t. “This is unusual, we can’t prepare.” - ok.

In the summer, it’s the same though. Not enough capacity. They didn’t “plan” for it. It’s never their fault because proper planning costs money. It’s all so gross.

Attempt at networking post!

Hi! I would love to meet and talk to more people in #dataScience #statistics #stats #pydata #dataViz etc etc

I have a Phd in #appliedMath and I work in #productAnalytics

I attend my local American Statistical Assoc meetings sometimes, but they are rare.

I also helped start an R User Group once, (but haven't used R in more than 10 years), and ran a Big Data reading group in #pdx

Please boost 😀

Mick is 80. Mitch is 81. It’s time we acknowledge the benefits of sex, drugs and rock and roll.

Full text search has been merged in #Mastodon `main` branch, and will be in the next (and final?) 4.2.0 beta 🎉

It is opt-in, so it will take some time to be filled with people content as they enable their profile to be indexed, but this was one of the most wanted Mastodon features for some time.

We plan to deploy it to mastodon.social and mastodon.online in the coming days to have a bit more feedback on it and see how it behaves in the wild.

Literally crying laughing at this one.
I'm filling out a job application and the online form has the most ironic button placement I have ever seen

Omg it’s everywhere

apparently i passed a phishing awareness test last week by correctly ignoring a fake linkedin email

nobody tell my boss that i ignored it entirely on the assumption that it was a real linkedin email

YES! I love this! Eliza Rose Watson - that OnlyFans model who took out billboard advertising and gathered tonnes of complaints - won the ad dispute!

Woo!
