Building on my own experience I think you have to own that if you crash with someone you made a mistake. I do agree that car and road design for bicycles(?) makes it almost impossible to move around if you do not risk things like that.

Swedish schools still have students who walk there. I live near one and there are very few cars that exceed 20km/h during rush hours. Anything faster is reckless even if the max over here is 30 km/h (19 mph).

The schools I'm thinking of have sidewalks with some degree of protection/offset from street, and the crossings are protected by human crossing guards during times when students are going to schools. The posted limits are "25 (MPH) When Children Are Present" and traffic generally moves at 20MPH during most of those times.

There are definitely times and situation where the right speed is 7MPH and even that feels "fast", though, too.


As most EU projects yes. There was test data released last year to get you started.

Well, at least in my experience with EU projects, they tend to be much more restrictive with data sharing than equivalent US institutions: e.g. a lot of paid EUMET data has publicly available NOAA equivalents - though usually of worse quality.

Yes! That government agencies data is PD is a nice feature of US law, we should implement that in EU.

Try to ask the NRO for their images and see how you go :)

Intelligence gathering data vs weather data. Yeah, that's the same thing.

Not Public Domain, TD - Taxpayers Domain. :)

Take a look at https://zenodo.org/communities/eu/

Yes, it's not everything, but it's a start.


Not sure why you're being down-voted. US weather models are free. EU models are not.

Depends on which model. Only really the ECMWF weather model is not fully free. The German, French, Dutch, ... models are all free (regional and global models). Of course, these global models are generally less accurate than ECMWF, still ECMWF has a lot of free data available too. US models are also freely available, and quite easy to work with (as opposed to some European ones).

It is not an EU project. It is an ESA and EUMETSAT project. Neither is an EU organisation. Both have multiple non-EU members, and I do not think all EU countries are members of either.

How are you going to get stuff done unless you try to get your opinion heard?

I feel we should ban social media and phones, it is a mistake. People stop caring about the things that happens near them.


Truthfully, your opinion matters to the right people, the general public have no influence on the outcome.

Annoy the decision makers, if you're annoying the general public, your cause will be discredited.

I have protest fatigue, i am tired of all the shit involved and just want them to go away.


Not full filling your wishes can still mean useful. Be very specific when you critize the only set of laws that has done anything for users.

Fascism is a slippery slope, maybe a political maelstorm everyone can be made to love it. The "first they came" poem is also a reminder that this are easier to see in hindsight. I think the strange turn the US took on human rights after 9/11, the media started to not only paint other groups as bad guys that you should overcome with force. The idea that any means necessary was allowed for a small win by torture, hacking or control. This idea that your power can be used against anyone just with a small connection to one bad person

I recommend the zig library [1], it was a joy to use. Bloom filters was one of the first interesting algorithms I did in class back in university, we upgraded hardware during the lab making the use of bloom filters unnecessary in a lab ment to interactively show its usefulness. I have had this repeated since then, these filters are magic until hardware catches up, having smaller filter is lovely.

What do you consider high quality? I would say they are one of the higher quality news papers of the world. Not everything, but overall yes.

I do not agree with their political views, but I can say the same about most papers. To a large degree this site is also beginning to be troublesome politically.


The thing about Wikipedia is that no one cares what you have done outside Wikipedia. It is like showing up at a new work place and saying something that is factually correct, it can go any way.

I have a fair amount of edits on Wikipedia and the wikis that preceded it. Whenever I read this sentiment here I never really understand what the problem is. I never have it myself. The only fight I have been involved in was if Wikipedia should have an article on Bitcoin. Which was not obvious in the beginning.

You could always link to the article and we can have a look. I have no clout on Wikipedia but I do understand why facts can be problematic in any text book. It once took me a week to correct an article about a Russian author.


It is quite easy todo 100 lines of Python, you can even send ip packets with faked source adress.


Networks are supposed to do egress filtering to prevent any packets with fake IPs from ever leaving the network. In practice it's not always so, but it mostly is. So you'd be limited to fake IP addresses in your own network, and doing so might raise alerts depending on the network infrastructure you live in.


Packets with fake source address can easily be spotted, and will raise an alert. In terms of using multiple interfaces for a single service it might be easy to hack together in a python script, but last time I checked the linux kernel support for bundling multiple interfaces is limited to redundancy and failover.

What I'd like to have is a single service dynamically using many network interfaces with randomized packet timings and randomized packet scheduling (5 packets on first interface, pause on 2nd, some on third interface, sometimes send traffic simultaneously).


If you want to hide you need to be in a place where you can do these kinds of stuff. Getting a peering without source filtering is possible, but even getting the simple version might be too hard for most.
