    And it is also great television. For me personally, the best I’ve ever seen. Whoever reads this and hasn’t seen it already: Do it! And watch it all! Some might think season 2 is a little slow (I still liked it), but season 3 is just incredible.


  • Yeah, in Germany there is already a lot of pressure on sewage network operators to get it out of the rainwater (we have many separate sewer systems). And that is honestly quite annoying. Put the pressure on the polluter (car/tire industry and car drivers), not the troubleshooter.

    It is also a waste of money and space. The facilities to get it out are huge and expensive. This is also naturally paid for by the general public.

    Lol, maybe it is common knowledge for people who have no knowledge at all… This all has been done in the open, no need for conspiracy theories. The US troops are openly embedded into their YPG ally troops, US politicians visit them frequently. And HTS and SNA are frequently battling with US allies who use US weapons. They did so this week…

    Also, HTS separated many years from AQ. They have a similar ideology, but not an organizational connection for a long time now. And those weapons dodnt even go to al-nusra (of whom HTS sprung of).Al nusra was never fsa. And the US stopped supporting the FSA 10 years ago.

    Get some informations or stop talking about this.

    Edit: this is honestly the most baffling thing about this conflict, how western Anti-imperialists still defend and support the US funded ypg…

    Oh my, two mistakes in one sentence… HTS is not active in the south and Turkey supports the SNA (FSA) which is at times cooperating with HTS, but is at odds with them at the same time. The tentions just flared up today again and let to a lot of bloodshet between SNA and HTS in the last. Turkey did occasionally protect the HTS to a degree against Assads agressions (to prevent Assad from gaining ground), but also tried to get rid of them.

    The US supports neither the SNA, nor HTS, but supports the YPG in the north and a mercenary troop in the south that acts like they were FSA, not HTS.

    You know literally nothing about the conflict. Stop writing about it

    The US is actually backing socialists and even communists in Syria. HTS is mostly on its own. The US supports Assad over HTS.

    Edit: Lol, downvote me all you want, doesn’t change that the US chose the socialist YPG/PKK as their ally. Tbf though, their main ideology is ethnic nationalism, socialism for them is nowadays more a tool to fool some naive westerners.

    Edit 2: I am a socialists myself. Still doesn’t change facts.

    Edit 3: Israel juat bombed the rebels. How does fit into your narrative? https://x.com/Doron_Kadosh/status/1864644939583201385

    Yeah it is weird how self righteous liberals react towards being shown over and over that their group is to blame for this shitshow.

    But I doubt the US will ever leave NATO without a coup happening in the US. The US would basically lose more than half their geopolitical influence.






  • Not chatGPT. But AIs are good at one single thing and that is pattern recognition. And there is a lot of data to train and use those AIs on. Decades of data from your PCs, phones and tablets is on NSA servers. And yes, the NSA did shit like recording you through your notebook camera or recording your phone calls with your first girlfriend.

    AI will probably never replace human workers/engineers/artists/…, but sorting through your online history is exactly what AIs excel at.

    Also Dragnet policies are used by the police for a long time now. This is pretty much just that. Imo the main question is more if they want to burn that data on this task, because once they do this some people will adjust and it will get harder to get new data.

    I mean, I’d say it depends on what you do. When I see grad students writing numeric simulations in python I do think that it would be more efficient to learn a language that is better suited for that. And I know I’ll be triggering many people now, but there is a reason why C and Fortran are still here.

    But if it is for something small, yeah of course, use whatever you like. I do most of my stuff in R and R is a lot of things, but not fast.





  • Nowadays I work in urban hydrology and lead our team for general planning/asset management and data management of utilities company for a city in germany. I did my phd in river hydrology and hydrometeorology.

    I have to admit modelling nowadays is only ~30% of my job. I oftentimes wished that I would do more modelling, but thus is life I guess. Should still consider myelf lucky that I manage to still do that much modelling, thanks to my team being very competent, thus allowing me to manage with a very low hierarchy and still do some work myself (the pay gap is also quite small, so I guess that is fair).

    But remote work is difficult in that business. We allow a maximum of 50% and only 1-2 days per week for leading positions.
