Am 08.05.2025 meldete der Copernicus Climate Change Service, dass der April 2025 der zweitwärmste seit Beginn der Aufzeichnungen im 19. Jahrhundert war, nur übertroffen vom Vorjahr. Die globale Durchschnittstemperatur lag 1,51°C über dem vorindustriellen Niveau (1850-1900). Dies ist der 21. Monat in den letzten 22 Monaten, in dem die Durchschnittstemperatur mehr als 1,5°C über diesem Niveau lag, einem wichtigen Referenzwert des Pariser Abkommens. Zeke Hausfather prognostiziert, dass 2025 wahrscheinlich das zweitwärmste Jahr seit Beginn der Aufzeichnungen wird.

A single kill by drone, for example, involves anywhere from 100 to 200 people
threat that drone warfare involves hypermasculine killing machines (Masters 2005; Manjikian 2014) or that it entrenches the distinction between “our” space and “their” space (Gregory 2011), either of which would make violence easier
Narrative offers a way to access bodily experiences, such as those of killing with or dying by drones,6 that are otherwise “impossible to reproduce” by those who live them (Wibben 2011, 44)
This can involve studying the experiences of bodies coded as women, gay, or of color in flying drones.
Drones are "genderqueer bodies" that do not track onto male-female, human-machine binaries.
The experience of killing with drones deviates from two main axes that orient killing in war: the home-combat and distance-intimacy binaries.

The main usage difference is that dependency can be used in a second sense as a "concrete" noun to mean a person or thing which depends on something/someone else. But note that in the programming context it's not uncommon to see it used to mean a software resource upon which some piece of software depends (i.e. - reversing the need/provide relationship).
Is that really true? Can dependency refer to a person or thing which depends on something/someone else?? I'm only used to it the other way.
And as others have pointed out, there is potential for ambiguity: if A is dependent on B, then a dependence or dependency (relationship) exists; but referring to either A or B as the dependency demands context.

here's a trivial example of why the "standard" geometric mean is not a good estimate of central tendency when you have values near zero.
Data that combine multiplicatively, like rates, are actually very common outside of economics too. The key is to recognize when a measured variables is affected by many (semi) independent forces, each of which scales that variable up or down — rather than simply adding or subtracting a fixed amount to it. This is often true in the natural sciences.

Also heavily at play here in their decentralization of control is regression toward the mean (Galton, 1886) by spreading out buying decisions over a more diverse group which is more likely to reflect the buying population than one or two corporate buyers whose individual bad decisions can destroy a company.
How is one to balance these sorts of decisions at the center of a company? What role do examples of tastemakers and creatives have in spaces like fashion for this? How about the control exerted by Steve Jobs at Apple in shaping the purchasing decisions of the users vis-a-vis auteur theory? (Or more broadly, how does one retain the idea of a central vision or voice with the creative or business inputs of dozens, hundreds, or thousands of others?)
How can you balance the regression to the mean with potentially cutting edge internal ideas which may give the company a more competitive edge versus the mean?

Filter gives me the impression of inclusion... so if I filter by fruits, I expect to see apples, oranges, and bananas. Instead, this is more like filter out fruits... remove all the fruits, and you're left with the rest. Filter in/out are both viable. One means to include everything that matches a condition, and the other is to exclude everything that does not match a condition. And I don't think we can have just one.

Calling a software convention "pretty 90s" somewhat undermines your position. Quite a lot of well-designed software components are older than that. If something is problematic, it would be more useful to argue its faults. When someone cites age to justify change, I usually find that they're inexperienced and don't fully understand the issues or how their proposed change would impact other people.

can be easily invoked directly from shell prompt or script
Can't expect / unbuffer / etc. (whatever this is attempting to contrast itself with) be easily invoked directly from shell prompt or script too??
Okay, I guess you have to know more about how expect is invoked to understand what they mean. One glance at the examples, comparing them, and all becomes clear:
#!/bin/sh
empty -f -i in -o out telnet foo.bar.com
empty -w -i out -o in "ogin:" "luser\n"
I didn't realize that expect required/expected (no pun intended) to be used in scripts with its own shebang line:
#!/usr/bin/expect
spawn telnet foo.bar.com
expect ogin {send luser\r}
That does make it less easy/normal to use expect within a shell script.
I was coming to the expect project from/for the unbuffer command, which by contrast, is quite easy to include/use in a shell script -- almost the same as empty, in fact. (Seems like almost a mismatch to have unbuffer command in expect toolkit then. Or is expect command the only odd one out in that toolkit?)

While I certainly don’t think that all configuration should be “self hosted” in this kind of way
how is it "self hosted"? in what way?
I think I found the answer here https://github.com/rails/sprockets/blob/master/UPGRADING.md:
One benefit of using a
manifest.jsfile for this type of configuration is that now Sprockets is using Sprockets to understand what files need to be generated instead of a non-portable framework-specific interface.
So it is "self-hosted" in that Sprockets is using Sprockets itself for this...?
