Everything you never wanted to know about Tallinn. Esimene täielik Tallinna tänavanimede sõnastik pärast Aleksander Kivise "Tallinna tänavad". Parandused ja tagasiside teretulnud. For a more light-hearted 'analysis' of the French language, see @frogologue

Ukraine once had the world’s 3rd-largest nuclear arsenal. In 1994, Ukraine gave it up in exchange for security assurances - including from russia. In 2014, russia invaded Ukraine. In 2022, it launched a full-scale invasion.

American health care creates no incentive for pharma companies to cure diseases. When you cure a disease, the customers go away. There's no money in that. Curing patients is not a sustainable business model, per Goldman Sachs. news.slashdot.org/story/19/02/...

for those outside New Zealand: 2 years ago a veiled far-right astroturf org threatened to sue an investigative journalist for a book he was writing about them. He was not writing a book about them, but this incident meant former staff started leaking to him. He used those leaks to write a book.

Some are suggesting you deliberately write inaccurate or confusing alt text, because they say this confuses AI scrapers that are analyzing images. The purpose of alt text is to help people who cannot see the image. Deliberately misrepresenting the image is a gross misuse of alt text. Don't do it.

I love how he talks about stuff he clearly just learned about five minutes ago. Like a toddler explaining how a toaster works. "The bread goes in. And then... heat happens. Tremendous heat. Nobody knew about heat before me."

Off to Bordeaux for a day's work and then off to Toulouse to spend a weekend with my daughters. Makes a change!
