brexit would look wild in that timeline

NEOM is the building the foundations for a new future - unconstrained by legacy city infrastructure, powered by renewable energy and prioritizing the conservation of nature. We are committed to developing the region to the highest standards of sustainability and livability.

lol, this is saudi, they found a way to make half of their water supply to riyadh nonrenewable

the talk about water content in soil was bad but the topic itself was interesting

things that fella got wrong: TDM moisture meter works by measuring what effectively is electrical length of waveguide formed by 2 electrodes and soil around it. more water = higher dielectric constant = longer delay for reflection, this only measures as deep as probe goes and the rest is fitted from model

neutron detector works just like geiger tube except gas has large cross-section for reaction with neutrons, that gives charged products that begin a spark which is counted. in train, steel doesn’t interfere but diesel fuel will. the trick is that cosmic neutrons are counted separately from reflected neutrons, because cosmic neutrons are hot and reflected neutrons are thermal and how much of reflected ones is there depends on water content in the soil. helium does not run out. the more helium you have the faster counts go and you can move faster while measuring with decent precision. the lead shield in train is for getting rid of radiation from granite aggregate under rails, because it contains tiny amounts of uranium and gammas from decay chain would add to noise - lead does not interfere

fella didn’t even introduce himself other than with link to github which might be not his strictly speaking

so far (in the order i’m watching) the worst offender https://media.ccc.de/v/39c3-a-quick-stop-at-the-hostileshop

at least this one https://media.ccc.de/v/39c3-chaos-communication-chemistry-dna-security-systems-based-on-molecular-randomness#t=1112 and the next slide

a chunk of software was vibecoded unless i misunderstand something about it https://media.ccc.de/v/39c3-hacking-washing-machines#t=2629

lowkey disappointed to see so much slop in other talks (illustrations on slides mostly)

energy goes in, energy goes out. you can’t explain that

is that the superexponential growth that lw tried to warn us about?

you will experience police brutality very soon, at scale

just type ABQ everybody will know what do you mean

what have the furries done to you

good for you ig. ozempic is actually small enough (and profitable enough) to make it synthetically, but novo process is to make linear precursor by fermentation, purify that, then tack on it side chain and N-terminal H-His-Aib- using regular peptide chemistry methods. no such luck with retatrutide tho, it has to be entirely synthetic. the real big deal however will be about small-molecule drug that targets this receptor, because this means pills instead of injections from day 1

elsewhere on lemmy, a piece from the atlantic (be warned: they quote lasker/cremieux for some reason) on new shiny glp-1 agonist that you can order off telegram from some random ass chinese lab:

The tests, insofar as they are reliable, do flag problems. According to Finnrick Analytics, a start-up that provides free peptide tests and publicly shares the results, 10 percent of the retatrutide samples it has tested in the past 60 days had issues of sterility, purity, or incorrect dosing. Two other peptide-testing labs, Trustpointe and Janoshik, have said in interviews with Rory Hester, a.k.a. PepTok on YouTube, that they see, respectively, an overall fail rate of 20 percent and a 3 to 5 percent fail rate for sterility alone across all peptides.

isn’t dear leader EY taking this? it’s still not approved yet, so it’s not available on normal market, and because it’s peptide it’s i.m. only. also, side effects not just for this one, but for entire class include anhedonia, which must be very rational thing to risk without medical need. chat, what’s your p(infected sore on EY’s ass)

so after putting together text to image and image to text idiot boxes, there appears to be small number of approximate sort of eigenvalues in there. does that even mean anything or has any consequences?

even in case where it isn’t that, it has no pilot so at minimum even highly capable drone is more disposable than plane, which is like the entire point

to be even clearer:

300k swedish krona = ~54k bulgarian lev = ~119k uae dirham

700k swedish krona = ~126k bulgarian lev = ~277k uae dirham
