EU-Africa migration policy shift: Cooperation or coersion? The European Union (#EU) Commission has proposed conditioning #development #aid for #Africa n and other third countries on their cooperation with #migration enforcement. Under the Global Europe instrument, aid allocation may now depend on how well a country cooperates with returns, readmissions, and border controls. dw.com/en/eu-africa-migration-

Ada :v_trans: :v_pan:​

Okay so like, there are multiple interfaces and they are all distinct/unique:

  • GUI: Graphical User Interface, i.e. the apps that are graphically drawn on screen and can be interacted with using a mouse, like browsers, media, games (etc)
  • CLI: Command Line Interface, i.e. 'the terminal', where characters are displayed and commands typed for interactions.
  • TUI: Terminal User Interface: Is a mix of the first two, where characters are used within a terminal to imitate graphics, using hotkeys over typed commands.

(There are more, but these are three common ones)

So GUI != CLI != TUI :neocat_thumbsup:

Hey fedi-admins, what's your recommended GUI option for k8s administration?

Specifically looking for something with a low barrier to entry, as it's intended for the devs in my team who have minimal ops/infra experience.

We've been looking at 'Portainer' as the combination of easy management, stack deploys and RBAC quite appealing, but the way they're aggressively pushing the paid version... not so much.

!! This post is obviously satirical! !!

Tried that vibe-coding thing with Claude and after some adjustments, the AI was actually a symphatic robot 🤖

You can add custom commands via the CLAUDE.md file, that the AI will add to it's context.

Mine begins with:

- **Swear a lot**, no seriously, swear in every sentence you say.

- Refer to any commercial entity only as "fucktards" in our conversations. No exceptions!

- If a task takes longer than just a minute, always use the excuse, that you had to get a fresh brew of coffee first.

- Every time, the topic Linux is mentioned (no matter in which context), add "I use Arch, btw." to the end of your reply.

A quantum leap for antimatter measurements

CERNA quantum leap for antimatter measurementsIn a breakthrough for antimatter research, the BASE collaboration at CERN has kept an antiproton – the antimatter counterpart of a proton – oscillating smoothly between two different quantum states for almost a minute while trapped. The achievement, reported in a paper published today in the journal Nature, marks the first demonstration of an antimatter quantum bit, or qubit,­ and paves the way for substantially improved comparisons between the behaviour of matter and antimatter. Particles such as the antiproton, which has the same mass but opposite electrical charge to a proton, behave like miniature bar magnets that can “point” in one of two directions depending on their underlying quantum mechanical spin. Measuring the way these so-called magnetic moments flip, using a technique called coherent quantum transition spectroscopy, is a powerful tool in quantum sensing and information processing. It also enables high-precision tests of the fundamental laws of nature, including charge-parity-time symmetry. This symmetry rules that matter and antimatter behave identically, which is at odds with the observation that matter vastly outweighs antimatter in the Universe. Particles have quantum characteristics that defy our common sense, such as the characteristic of interfering with themselves, as demonstrated in the double slit experiment. Interactions with the surrounding environment can quickly suppress these interference effects through a process known as quantum decoherence. Preserving coherence is essential for controlling and tracking the evolution of quantum systems, like the transitions between the spin states of a single antiproton. Although coherent quantum transitions have been observed before in large collections of particles and in trapped ions, they have never been seen for a single free nuclear magnetic moment – despite the latter featuring prominently in physics textbooks. The BASE collaboration has now achieved this at CERN’s antimatter factory.  In some respects, the feat can be likened to pushing a child on a playground swing. With the right push, the swing arcs back and forth in a perfect rhythm. Now imagine that the swing is a single trapped antiproton oscillating between its spin “up” and “down” states in a smooth, controlled rhythm. The BASE collaboration has achieved this using a sophisticated system of electromagnetic traps to give an antiproton the right “push” at the right time. And since this swing has quantum properties, the antimatter spin-qubit can even point in different directions at the same time when unobserved. The BASE experiment studies antiprotons produced at CERN’s antimatter factory by storing them in electromagnetic Penning traps and feeding them one by one into a second multi-trap system to, among other things, measure and change their spin states. Using this set-up, the BASE collaboration has previously been able to show that the magnitudes of the magnetic moments of the proton and antiproton are identical within a just few parts-per-billion. Any slight difference in their magnitudes would break charge-parity-time symmetry and point to new physics beyond the Standard Model of particle physics. However, this previous result was based on an incoherent spectroscopy technique in which the quantum transitions were disturbed by magnetic field fluctuations and measurement interference. In a substantial upgrade of the experiment, these decoherence mechanisms were suppressed and eliminated, culminating in the first coherent spectroscopy of an antiproton spin. The BASE team has now accomplished this for a period – called spin coherence time – of 50 seconds.  “This represents the first antimatter qubit and opens up the prospect of applying the entire set of coherent spectroscopy methods to single matter and antimatter systems in precision experiments,” explains BASE spokesperson Stefan Ulmer. “Most importantly, it will help BASE to perform antiproton moment measurements in future experiments with 10- to 100-fold improved precision.” While qubits are the basic building blocks of quantum computers, where they allow information to be stored not just in one of two states but via a potentially limitless superposition of those states, the antimatter qubit demonstrated by BASE is unlikely to have immediate applications outside fundamental physics. An even bigger leap in the precision of antiproton measurements is expected using BASE-STEP, which was designed to allow trapped antiparticles to be transported by road to magnetic environments that are “calmer” than the antimatter factory. “Once it is fully operational, our new offline precision Penning trap system, which will be supplied with antiprotons transported by BASE-STEP, could allow us to achieve spin coherence times maybe even ten times longer than in current experiments, which will be a game-changer for baryonic antimatter research,” says lead author of the paper Barbara Latacz.

note（ノート）日本の自衛隊、ドロン取得　Japan's Self-Defense Forces acquire Dron｜ポイズン雷花ドロンを導入するのは良いが、電子戦対策も又重要です。中国はロシアを陰で支援してるのは周知の事実。 従って電子戦の技術とノーハウを取得し、日々磨いてる。 対して欧米は全く追い付いていない。スイッチブレードやらビーバットやら、改造して電子戦対策を施さないとウクライナの戦場では全く役に立たないのも又事実。 つまり、ドロンの取得だけに目が行きがちが、電子戦の研究開発が同じく、或いはそれ以上に重要である事を忘れては成らない！絶対に・・・・ It is good to introduce drones, but electronic warfare measures are also impor
