Já vlastně nevím - to je právě to. Pokud měla 60 knih k přečtení, tak to byla vlastně dobrá záminka na to mít klid 🙂
Já vím o pár sci-fi ságách s mnoha díly, o kterých jen vím, že existujou, na druhou stranu tím, že si o nich člověk načetl, tak zase tuší, jak dopadnou, takže nevím, jestli by mi to bavilo, jako když se něco teprve píše na pokračování a nikdo to z principu spoilovat nemůže 🙂
Nevyhovuje mi ta jeskyně. Mým ideálem je nejspíš dlouhý solo kosmický let - od 60tých let a Apolla se žádné solové lety nedějou, nejdelšímu Vostoku nějak těsně konkuruje command module Apolla během nejdelší mise na Měsíc, ale myslím Vostok 6 nebo kolik vede. Většina lodí, co se 4 lidmi vydrží třeba měsíc, by v solovém obsazení vydržela 4 měsíce... byla by to jistě výzva, navíc z LEO se dá kdykoliv utéct, ale z hlubokého kosmu ne, to už by bylo stejné, jako ti strážci majáku (navíc zpoždění v rádiové komunikaci od určité vzdálenosti, apod.)
Další zajímavé možnosti jsou solo plavba na jachtě (to je v podstatě riskantnější, než ten kosmír, i když stejně jako na moři hrozí bouře, tak v kosmu hrozí solární erupce) a pobyt na nějakém ostrově (nebo v odlehlé přírodě). Tam by si člověk samozřejmě pral sám a žil by ze zásob potravin - tedy nebyl by to takový komfort, jako v té jeskyni.
Ten pobyt v jeskyni mi příliš připomíná vězení a to není můj ideál. Vypadnout od lidí to ano - ale směrem do prostoru, do přírody. Ne směrem do uzavřených prostor... (i když zrovna pobyt v kosmické lodi by tu jeskyni připomínal hodně...)

Is there a term for Gell-Mann Amnesia Effect, but for programmers talking about programming (or people talking about their own field) and not journalists talking about fields they don't understand?
I've never personally found the GMAE interesting because I never expected the median journalist to be able to accurately write about some random complex field they have no expertise in but I repeatedly make the mistake described by the GMAE when it comes to, e.g., meeting new programmers.
![Briefly stated, the Gell-Mann Amnesia effect is as follows. You open the newspaper to an article on some subject you know well. In Murray [Gell-Mann]’s case, physics. In mine, show business. You read the article and see the journalist has absolutely no understanding of either the facts or the issues. Often, the article is so wrong it actually presents the story backward—reversing cause and effect. I call these the “wet streets cause rain” stories. Paper’s full of them.
In any case, you read with exasperation or amusement the multiple errors in a story, and then turn the page to national or international affairs, and read as if the rest of the newspaper was somehow more accurate about Palestine than the baloney you just read. You turn the page, and forget what you know.](https://fedi.ml/photo/preview/640/427989 "Briefly stated, the Gell-Mann Amnesia effect is as follows.

This is the DX11.3 spec, and it's basically the last full one-stop-shop functional spec Microsoft ever did - those docs are now diffused across lots of web pages.
It is also used as the basis of OGL and Vulkan, and indeed all current consumer GPUs. Yes its old, but the rules haven't changed much since then.
Visité hoy el Palacio de la Música en Mérida hoy. En una sala uno puede elegir 'discos' y escucharlos. Muy ingenioso.
Y sentí hermanado con quien hizo la seleccion, pues hay joyas qué nunca espere encontrar ahí: sesiones con Emilia, Cecilia Toussaint, Amparo Ochoa.

Si, es muy bonito y lo interactivo se agradece.
Yo opino lo mismo, el museo maya no vale la pena, era mucho mejor el de antropología en el palacio de Cantón.

Here’s something cool I didn’t hear anyone into mainstream games talk about yet. Blizzard made a pretty big post detailing some of the things they’re overhauling after the Diablo IV betas, most of which reads like big patch notes. Between all the balance changes we have this in the “UI” Section:
“Fixed an issue where the built-in Screen Reader was not reading key prompts, game options details, and other UI text.”
THis is great to see. Question is if we’ll see any more accessibility updates at launch or is this changelog all we’ll get. But even then it sounds like Diablo IV is going to be almost a live service game with many updates planned so who knows. You can read the entire post here:

#Finland Olkiluoto #nuclear power plant block 3 is now going into full power after being first connected to the electrical grid in May 2022. The power capacity of the new block is 1600 MW and levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) 42 EUR/MWh, even after all delays that plagued the plant due to changing legislative environment.

In Praise of Those Who Leak
crimethinc.com/StealfromWork20…
For Steal Something from Work Day 2023, we focus on a particular kind of workplace theft: the leak.
In the information age, knowledge is power. The circulation of classified information is integral to the repressive institutions that maintain the prevailing order.
The less that these institutions can trust each other and their own employees, the harder it becomes for them to respond rapidly and coordinate. If information is the blood in the bloodstream of the security state, persistent leaks coagulate that blood.
So here is our challenge to you, begrudging employee. The same capitalist economy that keeps you chained to your work station runs on the information that passes before your eyes every day.
At some point, something may cross your field of vision that could be useful to someone engaged in the struggle for a better world. If you see something—say something.

There are many things you can reclaim from work: money, time, goods, raw materials. Here, we discuss the advantages of taking and leaking information.CrimethInc.
Any missourians about to lose trans healthcare in the KC metro area, the University of Kansas hospital is right across the border and I can personally vouch that their trans healthcare team is amazing, they've had some ups and downs, but I was a patient with them from 2017 when they started the clinic all the way to 2022 when I left the state.
They do require a letter for HRT, BUT If you're already on hormones they'll help you stay on them while the letter gets sorted out. I hope this helps someone here
