Not novel. I think there was a train somewhere in Africa, that transported some ore from mountain to port. On the way down with ore it charged and uphill it used charge.

What about post-Soviet countries?

Nope it's amin according to Google.

That's why I ask. Americans call it "acetaminophen", but compound doesn't have amino-group and instead had amido-group.

IUPAC calls it as what it is: N-(4-Hydroxyphenyl)acetamide

EDIT: my guess is that america uses another nomenclature for organic chemistry. As usual. Do they have compound called "freedom eagle guns"? I'm so used to amine meaning specifically R-NH2 and nothing else.

Would flying to Europe and getting healthcare there be cheaper? Look into it.

...but it is amid, not amin, no? Why do americans call it acetaminophen instead of acetamidophen?

Unless when it is the other way around, they will sue you to death.

 

We are now at t+26h. Please compare how much we knew about the xz-attack after less than a day with what we know about the chain of events of giant outage yesterday.

If something similar had been caused by an OSS component, we would see congress discussing a ban on open software in critical infrastructure already.

 

Some of the new Reddit mods are so toxic. Instead of apologizing for the bot being too harsh and reinstating my submission, they just banned me because I dared to ask what exactly I didn't "punctuate correctly".

 

So I think this is ridiculously ugly.

AIO is a horrible ad-hoc design, with the main excuse being “other, less gifted people, made that design, and we are implementing it for compatibility because database people — who seldom have any shred of taste — actually use it”.

— Linus Torvalds (on lwn.net)

First, as database people ourselves, we’d like to take this opportunity to apologize to Linus for our lack of taste. But also expand on why he is right. Linux AIO is indeed rigged with problems and limitations:
