@dilmandila @Gargron I love Gimp! Because of it, I don't even know how to work on Photoshop. But, TBF, I'm not a pro user.

This is depressing. Perfectly good alternatives to all Adobe have existed for many years and are used at pro level, but someone hallucinates some code with claude (which I hear was trained on code of programs like gimp and inkscape) and suddenly everyone is raving about it being the end of Adobe […]

Fab story from Margaret Hamilton, RIP, showing why Science-Mums are brilliant scientists! When innovating at the cutting edge of technology, it's so important to bring together a wide range of lived experiences. Sad that only ~20% comp-scientists are female 👩‍🔬🧪 ℹ️: www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

Left text: Did your life as a software engineer and a mother ever collide?
Often in the evening or at weekends I would bring my young daughter, Lauren, into work with me. One day, she was with me when I was doing a simulation of a mission to the moon. She liked to imitate me – playing astronaut. She started hitting keys and all of a sudden, the simulation started. Then she pressed other keys and the simulation crashed. She had selected a program which was supposed to be run prior to launch – when she was already “on the way” to the moon. The computer had so little space, it had wiped the navigation data taking her to the moon. I thought: my God – this could inadvertently happen in a real mission. I suggested a program change to prevent a prelaunch program being selected during flight. But the higher-ups at MIT and Nasa said the astronauts were too well trained to make such a mistake. Midcourse on the very next mission – Apollo 8 – one of the astronauts on board accidentally did exactly what Lauren had done. The Lauren bug! It created much havoc and required the mission to be reconfigured. After that, they let me put the program change in, all right.

New Zealand makes cervical cancer screenings free for all women aged 25 to 69. Until now, 55% of eligible women paid NZ$35 to over NZ$100 a visit, a cost that hit younger women hardest. The free screenings start March 2027; the move backs New Zealand’s goal of eliminating cervical cancer by 2040 […]

A short thread on “legitimate concerns”. The phrase is used repeatedly by UK government ministers. The Home Secretary is at it again this week. But only ever - as far as I can tell - in one context: people’s response to the arrival of asylum seekers. Please read whole 🧵before responding - thanks

I needed a goat-apple-opera break from grant-writing and I bet you do too.

A white goat wish her head thrown back, chewing an apple, but sort of looks like she's singing. There are several other goats in the background, one other one obviously eating an apple.

Four goats, two white and two black, all eating apples with their heads back and their mouths open like they are singing opera.

Two goats, one white and one black, look like they are singing with their heads back as they eat red apples. There's a tall wooden fence in the background and green grass under their feet, as well as several other goats in the background.

The very same people who justified platforming nazis because of "free speech" are now trying to get artists fired for chanting "free Palestine". Because it was never about free speech. It was about platforming nazis.
