Is there something similar for the editors instead of the articles of Wikipedia? I am sure it'd be interesting to see if one can identify communities.

> You need three things. You need to be good at some kind of technology, you need an idea for what you're going to build, and you need cofounders to start the company with.
So no word about funding from the CIA and NSA. If you want to build something that changes the world in such a profound way as Google did, you can not possibly expect the powerful not having a word with you. I am inclined to believe that these days you will need influential "friends" with aligned interests at some point.

Today I had a look at my Pi-hole block lists. When I wanted to check the GitHub page of the linked list I was greeted by big red warning telling me that this site want's me to install malicious software.
Turns out this specific GitHub repository is flagged as malicious by Google Safe Browsing [1]. And now I am left wondering if that's intentional or a false positive. Even more confusing, reloading [1] sometimes changes the result to "No available data".

I wonder if it's actually being updated quickly. I think it'd be much easier to train it to use google's search index as a tool in a way hidden from the user. For example regarding the shutdown date of itself it might have googled "google bard shutdown" to find and misunderstand the HN comment cited in the twitter thread.

Creator here: The last time I did measurements for the latency of mirroring the screen I got about 60ms (over WIFI). The Gif is from way back before I did any optimizations at all.

> Nearly all of it ends up in the lymph nodes near your armpit
Not sure how the situation is in other countries but in Germany they started recommending aspiration (used to make sure no blood vessel is hit) a few months ago due to concerns of the mRNA getting into your blood stream and causing adverse effects like that.

In the paper it says:
> Our behavioral study showed that administration of SARS‑CoV‑2 spike protein S1 subunit (S1 protein) to mouse hippocampus induced cognitive deficit and anxiety‑like behavior in vivo.
About the BioNTech/Pfizer mRNA vaccine Wikipedia says:
> It is composed of nucleoside-modified mRNA (modRNA) encoding a mutated form of the full-length spike protein of SARS-CoV-2, which is encapsulated in lipid nanoparticles. [1]
So it seems it's at least the other way around. To me it doesn't sound too far fetched to consider that vaccines might have similar effects. But I am not a doctor either so this is just speculation.

> Azov Special Operations Detachment, often known as Azov Detachment, Azov Regiment, or Azov Battalion (until September 2014), is a right-wing extremist and neo-Nazi unit of the National Guard of Ukraine, based in Mariupol, in the Azov Sea coastal region.
> According to The Daily Telegraph, the Azov Battalion's extremist politics and professional English social media pages have attracted foreign fighters, including people from Brazil, Italy, the United Kingdom, France, the United States, Greece, Scandinavia, Spain, Slovakia, Czech Republic and Russia.
> A 16 July 2014 report placed the Azov Battalion's strength at 300. An earlier report stated that on June 23 almost 600 volunteers, including women, took oaths to join the "Donbass" and "Azov" battalions. The unit included 900 volunteers as of March 2015.
> Reports published by the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) have connected the Azov Battalion to war crimes such as mass looting, unlawful detention, and torture.
That does sound nasty. I wonder how many members they have had at the start of Russia's invasion. The reports about the battalion's strength on Wikipedia are rather old.

This was probably meant to link to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azov_Battalion and not the Main Page of Wikipedia.

Is this going to accomplish anything? I fear sending in more weapons will just lead to more deaths, I do not think there is any way for Ukraine to win this.

You can very much see deployed satellites with your naked eye. The ISS can even get about as bright as Venus [1]. Other satellites aren't as bright but still visible.

Shameless plug: I created a pretty similar piece of software: Weylus [1].
Additionally to mirroring the screen touch input is forwarded, so you can use your tablet as graphic tablet for your computer. I only use it on Linux so that's where it works best. It comes as a single (mostly) statically linked binary with a minimal gui (and headless mode via command line) and is written in Rust (do I still get brownie points for that?).

Well, the security report itself talks about suspected cases (Verdachtsfallmeldungen in German), so I guess it's fair to call them that:
> In 1.919 Verdachtsfallmeldungen wurde über einen tödlichen Ausgang in unterschiedlichem zeitlichem Abstand zur Impfung (0 Tage bis 289 Tage) berichtet.
Also note that not every death after vaccination is reported, you need to fill a document with your symptoms [1]. So these are indeed very much suspected cases of adverse side effects / deaths.

I wish German media were as meticulous about reporting adverse side effects of the vaccines against COVID-19 as they are with reporting about the dangers of COVID-19 itself.
The above findings are currently prominently displayed on tagesschau.de [1], whereas you can't even find the current number of suspected deaths after vaccinations (currently 1919 deaths after vaccination in Germany [2]) using the search utility [3]. Please note that this number is indeed newsworthy as this is the first update in months regarding deaths after vaccinations.
