Voyons si le gouvernement survit la première semaine d'octobre sans censure.

Ensuite on pourra se demander si Bruno Retaillau est capable d'avoir une majorité pour son projet de loi. Même avec le soutiens total de l'extrême droite, ça me semble difficile de faire voter qqch d'aussi réactionnaire.

Every time a train rumbles to a stop, the energy generated by all that friction is converted to electricity

Friction is how classic braking work, and all the energy that goes into friction is lost. Regenerative braking typically rely on magnets and rotors to slow a train. When a train brake, it uses part of its kinetic energy to spin a rotor, which generate electricity using spinning magnets.

The article is otherwise interesting, it's just unfortunate they got the basic physics wrong.

• You have a malicious actor on your trusted network.
• If so, you have bigger problems.

This is more likely than you think. There's more computers than you realise on the average network. Many aren't updated and have vulnerabilities. If there's one malware on one machine on your network, that means a malicious actor is on your network.

Common exemples :

• Home WiFi network with old unpached router, Android smartphone, network printer, security camera, thermostat, robot vacuum cleaner, smart lightbulb, smart TV, ...
• Unsecure WiFi network at the cafe, train station, hotel, ... where you connect a laptops that is sometimes used for printing and which has CUPS

C'est du pragmatisme ou de la realpolitik. La libre circulation et l'ouverture complète des frontières extérieure est impossible politiquement. Mais on peut au minimum réduire la cadence des OQTF vu que de toute façon la préfecture ne suit pas.

I guess integration with Google Drive is a big convenience for users.

But yes, if the cost of getting access is to high for indie developers, then it make sense to avoid Google Drive. Creating and maintaining your own cloud sync service for a specific app may not be worth it, they should investigate integration with existing Google Drive competitors/alternatives.

Une partie de réponse : on prononce tellement d'OQTF que les préfecture n'arrivent pas à suivre

«Il faut mieux cibler les OQTF pour être plus efficace»

What about winning hearts and minds?

Fighting ennemies while antagonising civilians create new ennemies. I fear that strategy is fueling an endless war, rather than ending a war.

China’s Ministry of Commerce said Tuesday that PVH Corp. must provide documentation and evidence within 30 days to show it did not engage in discriminatory practices

That's one way of saying they want this US company to provide proof they don't comply with US sanctions.

I don't understand what they're realistically hoping for. Forcing them to pick between operating in the US or operating in China?

At least this is putting a spotlight on the genocide of Uyghurs.

fines of up to €50,000 ($55,580) for supporting “the refusal to have children.”

I'm sure the law is absolutely consistent and grant the right to adopt to gay couples, right? Right?

That sounds promising for anyone with a weak immune system, who is unable to benefit much from vaccines.

This hasn't gone through clinical trial yet, according to this article, so it's going to take more time, money, and luck.
