Nearing absolute zero even.

Elon is building both the “apocalypse-proof” (they are not) truck and the apocalypse (he really is)

I should specify I am referring to mainland China. Hong Kong has a different health care systems, and the health care is usually considered reasonably affordable for residents (could be because people in Hong Kong are generally more wealthy than most of mainland China)

I want to add China’s healthcare is still reasonably affordable for many people living and working in cities.

No they don’t. They have state provided health care, supplemented with private options.

I think this is already done in most part of computer science. In my field, Springer has very little shares left, and is actively being replaced by ACM and Schloss Dagstuhl, which are not only both non-profit but all open access.

I am also glad after 20 something years, our field has finally moved away from IEEE, which is not open access even til this day.

Why have we been talking about EU chat control for years. How many time have this been voted on? and can people just keep popping up chat control if the previous one fail?

“sciency people” is a huge community, I think even within computer science (which is not a science), each community have their own perferred platform.

Algorithm, foundation, and automata theory people often don’t have social media or on mailing lists; more foundational fields like programming language people often perfer Mastodon; more flushy system, network, and security people often are on bluesky; AI/ML people, of course, are often found on xitter.
