If you have an important meeting or video call going on at 2:20pm ET today, you might want to turn off the emergency alerts, or just leave your phone in another room.
On an iPhone, this setting is under notifications, but you have to scroll all the way down to the bottom, after all the individual apps.
Here's something I hadn't considered previously:
Edit: I'm being told by way smarter people that even turning these notification settings off probably won't stop this test on your phone. But turning it off will.
If open data and code support reproducibility (and they do), then so do standardized data and code 𝘤𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴. But what are the best ways to implement them? https://www.nature.com/articles/s41597-023-02491-7
Neue United Acceleration Foundation will OpenAPI auf die nächste Stufe heben
Google, Arm, Fujitsu, Imagination Technologies, Intel, Qualcomm und Samsung arbeiten in der neuen Unified Acceleration Foundation (UXL) bei oneAPI zusammen.
Freitag: ARM mit erfolgreichem Börsenstart, Kalifornien mit Right to Repair
ARM-Aktie hebt ab + Kaliforniens Recht auf Reparatur + Standards frei in den USA + Kommentar zu missratenen MSN-Artikeln + Samsung verliert daheim gegen Apple
Public.Resource.Org veröffentlicht rechtsverbindliche Standards, die sonst nur mühsam oder teuer zu lesen wären. In Deutschland verboten, in den USA erlaubt.
@heiseonline Es ist allerhöchste Zeit, dass das toxische Geschäftmodell mit den rechtsverbindlichen #Standards auch in Deutschland ausgerottet wird. Das #DIN ist so ineffizient und teuer, dass der #ÖRR dagegen wie ein stringent geführter Dax-Konzern wirkt. Offene Standards sind viel schneller und qualitativ besser, Gremien wie #W3C und #OASISopen machen es seit 30 Jahren vor. Wenn wir #Bürokratieabbau betreiben wollen, sollten wir heute noch mit der Öffnung der Standards anfangen.
Centralization, Decentralization, and Internet Standards
This document discusses aspects of centralization that relate to Internet standards efforts. It argues that while standards bodies have little ability to prevent many forms of centralization, they can still make contributions that improve the Internet.
Are you involved in making open #standards in Europe? Substantial funding for your work and travel is available from the @EU_Commission - all you have to do is fill out a form explaining what you are doing and #StandICT will do the rest.
Everytime I deal with #bicycle tires sizes other than ISO *-622 (aka "700c") I get confused & have to relearn everything about #standards 😤️
Mom's #bike has 40-559 aka MTB aka 26x1.5" tires that need replacement, but #Decathlon only has:
35-590 ("650x35 A")
35-584 ("650x35 B")
25-571 ("650x25")
I'm now wondering, "Can I put 584 tires on a rim that currently has 559 tires? Is a 2.5cm difference in wheel diameter insignificant?" 🤔️ (my Internet searches led me nowhere on that question)
This is important as the @w3c plays a critical role in #standards for the #Web - and given that the Web is such a huge part of the broader #Internet, this work is vital. Yet I’m not sure that the W3C as an organization is widely understood. This kind of document is useful in helping explain what the W3C is all about!
Biden Administration plans water heater standards, says they will save consumers $11 billion
The U.S. Department of Energy on Friday proposed #energy#efficiency#standards on #water#heaters it said would save consumers $11.4 billion on energy and water bills annually.
The standards on residential water heater efficiency, which are required by Congress, have not been updated in 13 years.
Water heating is responsible for roughly 13% of both annual residential energy use and consumer utility costs, the DOE said.
I just finished "Protocols, Not Platforms" by @mmasnick. Great read. Interoperability is key to the future of social media, as it was (and still is) to the Internet and many other technologies.
