We have to stop antisemitism because antisemitism is the canary in the coal mine. It always precedes larger confrontations that engulf the entire world. So I ask all of you, Jews and non-Jews alike, who are concerned with our common future and our common values, to do one thing. Stand up. Speak up. Be counted. Stop antisemitism. Now.
Don’t get me wrong: I was happy working hard with my two feet planted firmly on the land. In a better world I and people like Scott Chang-Fleeman would have kept getting our hands dirty, making an honest, if modest, living providing good and wholesome food in synch with the rhythms of the planet.
But to borrow a word from the world of ecology, being a young farmer in today’s economy is “unsustainable.” The numbers don’t work economically and, eventually, any mind trying to square this un-squarable circle is going to break. The economic, physical and mental challenges are all interconnected.
It’s hard to find an American, Republican or Democrat, red or blue state resident that doesn’t want more young hands on the land. We all rightly see agriculture as a pathway to personal fulfillment and a way to make our food supply healthier and more secure. But words and intentions can only do so much. We must answer these very real problems with very real subsidy.
Truth is by nature one, universal, and indivisible because the ultimate truth is Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is the Logos, the one Word of God through Whose light knowledge is possible (John 1:3-4). Because truth is the Word—a united whole—it is essential that the curriculum of New College Franklin reflects this unity. Every fact, idea, symbol, or sign exists in relationship to universal truth. Every part of the curriculum is interrelated and helps the student seek, know, and experience truth. While there are facets of the curriculum as varied as Greek grammar and Euclidean propositions, every part serves the whole.
New College Franklin offers one degree. With the exception of preceptorials, all students take the same courses. Our goals encompass our students’ vocations and individual callings, but our primary goals are wisdom and discipleship for all of life. Because of this commitment, all of the disciplines are core curricula, and we believe that this core prepares each student to seek his or her individual calling. Once the strong foundation of a liberal arts education is laid, students are prepared to pursue their callings in light of the questions and ideals common to all humanity. Additionally, we encourage students to shape projects, papers, and the Capstone Project to coincide with their vocational callings and interests. //
The curriculum of New College is grounded in five areas.
I. Moral Philosophy
Moral Philosophy studies the historical progression of major questions and ideas by examining great texts of literature, philosophy, and history.
II. Theological Studies
Theological Studies focuses on Biblical, Systematic, and Historical Theology, as well as the koine Greek language. In contrast to Moral Philosophy, which considers religion as an anthropological study, Theological Studies focus on God as Creator, Savior, and Sustainer.
III. The Trivium
The Trivium is composed of Grammar, Logic, and Rhetoric and lays down the foundation for academic expertise, equipping students to engage in the process of academic discovery for the gaining and disseminating of wisdom.
IV. The Quadrivium
The Quadrivium is composed of Arithmetic, Geometry, Harmonia, and Cosmology and is founded on the belief that God reveals Himself and His decrees through the beauty, order, and design of His world.
V. Applied Studies
Applied Studies articulate the complex relationship between faith, learning, and practice by means of artistic mediums, preceptorials, and the Senior Capstone Project.
According to the FTC, approximately 18 million workers in America are covered by these agreements, which equates to roughly 30 million people. This final ruling would eliminate all new noncompete agreements for workers and it would force these companies to allow current and former employees know that they won’t enforce them.
Additionally, they will also have to eliminate existing agreements for most employees, although the agreements may remain in effect for senior executives. //
Pro-business groups like the Chamber of Commerce all say that the rule targets businesses that are simply trying to prevent intellectual property or information and also calls into question the FTC's authority to retroactively kill agreements that were made before they voted to eliminate the rule. //
The two dissenting commissioners on the FTC both say that they don't support non-compete agreements entirely across the board, however, they do believe that the FTC lacks the authority to enact such a ruling without first getting Congress to enact legislation to do so.

Self pity. Life's singularly most destructive emotion. And the belief that everything is always someone else's fault. Sadly, these are the predominant emotions of our current American culture, and they are not limited to the arena of teenage girls, or even Democrats.

Wow. Biden in Tampa on Trump: "He said there has to be punishment for women exercising their reproductive freedom ... maybe it's coming from that bible he's trying to sell. I almost wanted to buy one just to see what the hell is in it."

On Monday, Judge Aileen Cannon released an unredacted version of former President Trump's motion for discovery in the Mar-a-Lago classified documents case. The document appears to show collaboration between the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA), the Justice Department, and the Biden administration to develop the case.
The fellow in the photo above looks like a distinguished figure -- a bank president, perhaps, or a judge, a governor, maybe a college professor. He is a figure of great dignity and gravitas, indeed.
Well, he was a college professor and a governor (of Maine), in fact, but that’s the least of his story. The old fellow here is Brevet Major General Lawrence Joshua Chamberlain, hero of Gettysburg, one of America’s premier military heroes, a man who may have single-handedly saved the Union on a fateful day in 1863.

The LSI SAS 9300 HBAs are specifically designed for high performance in high-end servers that connect to large scale storage enclosures as well as for internal drive connectivity in 1U/2U servers and workstations. At the heart of the SAS 9300 HBA line is the LSI SAS 3008 IO controller, which takes advantage of the latest advances in SAS and PCI Express technology while reaching over 1 million IOPs from a single IOC. Additionally, each HBA from the 9300 line supports 8 or 4 individual SAS ports, which operate at 12Gb/s and are backward compatible with previous PCIe and SAS generations using automatic negotiation.

I was assuming the real-time stuff (e.g. TACC's control loop) was on a separate real-time OS, since it doesn't get affected when the user-mode apps go bonkers. Are they using a real-time linux for that?
You can run a non-real time process, such as an OS, on top of a real time OS. The underlying hypervisor layer is the effective real time OS and safety related stuff is handled down at that layer, and it is likely a fully real time OS in addition to a virtualization environment. //

Hmm surprised none of the current systems would be using nix.
Most use Linux for Non-Safety critical systems (like parts of the infotainment) and QNX for safety. Usually they also use seperate MCUs or cores for the vehicle bus systems that run dedicated low level real time OS kernels (like MicroSAR from Vector Informatik or TresosOS from elektrobit). Tesla is no exception here.
The ability to use Linux for high end safety and non-safety SW (i.e. ASIL certified safety) is novel. It hasn't been done before because it's both hard to certify an OS with as many lines of code as Linux for ISO 26262 and it's also a moving target. As soon as you add a change you would have to re-certify the whole system again and again and again.
If the claims of Elektrobit are true they have now solved the certification issue as well as the IS26262 hardening of the SW stack which makes Liinux ready for ASIL rated systems without running years old kernels and the respective security issues.
The 8-bit Z80 microprocessor was designed in 1974 by Federico Faggin as a binary-compatible, improved version of the Intel 8080 with a higher clock speed, a built-in DRAM refresh controller, and an extended instruction set. It was extensively used in desktop computers of the late 1970s and early 1980s, arcade video game machines, and embedded systems, and it became a cornerstone of several gaming consoles, like the Sega Master System. //

It's not until you click the link and read beyond the headline that you find out that the poll was a national poll, not a state poll:
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has one of the highest disapproval ratings among U.S. governors, a national survey from Morning Consult found.
Morning Consult tracked three months’ worth of survey data from about 9,000 voters. //
And it wasn't until the last line in the piece that they pointed out his approval ratings among Republicans nationally are rock solid: //

In 2022, Ron DeSantis won re-election by a landslide. His 19.4% margin of victory was the largest since 1982 and the largest for a Republican since 1868.
For a file server-only oriented board look no further than X10SDV-2C-7TP4F. I wish I’d bought it instead of the version I have now.
Very low power, 22 SATA ports (of which 2 are SATADOM), etc. You’re really unlikely to outgrow it as a file server.
My system
Modified Lian Li A76 case with SuperMicro X10SDV-7TP4F with 128GB of ECC RAM and a Z3 pool consisting of eight HGST 10TB HE10 drives, three 1.6TB S3610 Intel SSDs for the sVDEV, mirrored 64GB SuperMicro SATADOM boot drives, a 1TB Samsung 860-series mSATA L2ARC, and a Intel P4801x Optane SLOG, onboard SFP+ with MM fiber, riding the TrueNAS CORE 13.x stable train @ 106 W/hr.
The most likely system used here was the S-200, which first appeared in 1967 and was steadily upgraded over the years. Ukraine retired its S-200 batteries in 2013 but reactivated them in 2022. The system was designed to engage SR-71 reconnaissance aircraft and was nuclear-capable. //

one of the advances this war has brought about is that older SAMs are networked to state-of-the-art radar. The Patriot's radar can control S-300 and S-400 in addition to Patriot.

- First, open PuTTy.
- For “Host Name” enter the domain name or IP address of the server that will act as the proxy.
- From the “Category” section on the left, scroll to “Connection” > “SSH” > “Tunnels”.
- Enter the local port you want to use for the proxy connection in the “Source port” field. A common choice is “8080”.
- Assuming you picked 8080 for the port, then enter “localhost:8080” (without quotes) as the destination. This tells PuTTY to listen to data sent to it on port 8080 from the same computer putty is running on, and forward it to the remote server.
- Where it says “Forwarded ports”, select “Dynamic”. This enables the SOCKS protocol.
- Now click “add”.
- Go back to the “Session” option in the left panel. Type in a name for this connection under the “Saved Sessions” text box.
- Now click the “Save” so you’ll be able to open the connection later without repeating these steps again.
- Almost done! Just click the “Open” button.
