If this apparent relationship between flares and decay rates proves true, it could lead to a method of predicting solar flares prior to their occurrence

So, can we predict the flares now? I've taken a look at Ephraim Fischbach's articles and it seems that we're very far from that, so the article you linked is interesting but overstates the facts by a lot. This is what I found the best explanation so far:

Some experiments seem to yield strong evidence of variability of beta-decay rates, but other experiments may show little or no such evidence. Some recent experiments help clarify the situation. In particular, a certain oscillation appears in neutrino measurements made at the Super-Kamiokande Neutrino Observatory and in radon beta-decay measurements made at the Geological Survey of Israel, with identical frequency (9.43 years ⁻¹ ), amplitude and phase, strengthening the case for an influence of neutrinos on beta decays. A review of current experimental information leads us to suggest that 1) beta-decay rates do not change, but 2) the angular distribution of decay products may be anisotropic, and 3) the angular distribution of decay products may be influenced by the ambient neutrino flux. It appears that experiments at standards laboratories tend to be insensitive to direction, and this may be the reason that they tend not to exhibit evidence of variability.

And even this I would take with a grain of salt

I don't think they meant ‘can't tell difference’, more like ‘don't use different words for siren and mermaid’

I expect it's not suited for kernel, yeah, but it sounds like a fun thing to try other than for kernel stuff

The this:

[Author] portrays Shangri-La as a mystical, harmonious valley, gently guided from a lamasery, enclosed in the western end of the Kunlun Mountains. In the novel, the people who live in Shangri-La are almost immortal, living hundreds of years beyond the normal lifespan and only very slowly ageing in appearance

Sounds interesting:

Fennel is a programming language that brings together the simplicity, speed, and reach of Lua with the flexibility of a lisp syntax and macro system.

I don't know, I've seen grown ups pissing in the park in Shanghai, not somewhere deep in the bushes but right beside the pavement and buildings. That was not indoors, at least

WindowsNT was POSIX compatible, afaik

Judging by the reviews Pavlov seem to have sorta died because of removed community mod support?

I recently dreamed it's going to be April 1st which was like tomorrow. I was a bit disappointed when I woke up and realised it was not even February yet 🤣

It may not be the best of all time, but I remember Celeste has been a blast to play, and it's really well polished

I guess, the point was there's nothing doing that in windows, and you will have to check manually or use an expensive M$ certificate

It doesn't render in the font I'm using, seems to be too far into extended unicode, but that's still cool, thanks
