Dusk OS is a 32-bit Forth. Its primary purpose is to be maximally useful during the first stage of civilizational collapse, that is, when we can't produce modern computers anymore but that there's still many modern computers still around. Dusk OS doesn't have users, but operators. What's the difference? Control. You use a phone, you use a coffee machine, hell you even use a car these days. But you operate a bulldozer, you operate a crane, you operate a plane. You use Linux, you use Windows. You operate Dusk OS. 🔗 duskos.org/ 😐

This is amazing news!
📢BREAKING: European Parliament backs the Nature Restoration Law! MEPs have chosen to listen to European citizens and scientific facts instead of disinformation & lies. Let’s #RestoreNature all around Europe!

As floods & fires rise, oceans boil & ice melts, and "safe" temperatures are breached, something momentous just happened in the heart of the EU. No one has heard about it: journalists were present, but their editors refused to publish 🤯. 🧵, please RT. #BeyondGrowth2023 1/

"Overall, there is almost no ice over 4 years old remaining - it now comprises just 3 percent of the total ice cover... ...contrasts starkly with the late 1980s when 30 to 35 percent of the Arctic Ocean’s ice was older than 4 years." End of winter update: nsidc.org/arcticseaicenews/2…

The heat of the world's oceans has hit unprecedented levels. 21.1C will be the death of coral reefs and marine ecosystems as species are forced to flee north, chasing their temperature-dependent ecological niches. Where are the headlines?

Hotter take: ML would have advanced faster if another front-end language had been available and widely adopted instead of Python. One that is interactive yet fast & compilable, multithreaded (no GIL), isn't bloated, doesn't care about white spaces,... E.g. Julia or some Lisp.
Hot take: Machine Learning would not have been nearly as advanced now were it not for Python. Python’s two main virtues in the context of ML: 1. Lowering barriers to entry. 2. As a scripting language, it encourages and enables experimental workflow.

1/ Trying to signal boost w a short 🧵 Amateur Go player Kellin Pelrine can consistently beat "KataGo", an AI system that was once classified as "strongly superhuman". Strikingly, the strategies employed to beat the AI do not foil other amateur players. ft.com/content/175e5314-a7f7…

At #EUCO: to speed up military aid to Ukraine, we must send a clear signal to defence industry to produce more. Price goes up with every delay. My suggestion: could use mechanism similar to EU vaccine procurement. MS give funds, Commission procures, aid goes directly to #Ukraine
