Is there a meaningful difference between the USB-B plugs that have the little boxy part on top and the ones that don't?
My monitor came with a "USB 3.0 upstream cable" that has the boxy part. But it has vanished. So I used one that didn't (an old printer cable) to connect it to a usb port on my computer, and it seems to be making the usb hub on my monitor operational for peripherals, including hard drives.
But is there a secret bad to this?

Evidently, there is a security flaw in Mastodon (see screenshot). It's not prudent to trust unknown admins with our #data.
Therefore, how do we make the #Fediverse admins more accountable? Or, should the fediverse be developed to be more user-friendly - so that we can connect directly to the network without having to depend on servers? (that is do-able. e.g., p2p networks)

Amazing new weather/climate tool from the CBC! Put in your Canadian location (even somewhere small like #PortAlberni and it will tell you if your forecast for the day might be a record, it shows you the same across Canada and it tells you about your recent historic compared to the climate. For example, Port Alberni has had an “extremely hot” past 30 days!

Hacker News front-page analytics
A question about what states were most-frequently represented on the HN homepage had me do some quick querying via Hacker News's Algolia search ... which is NOT limited to the front page. Those results were ... surprising (Maine and Iowa outstrip the more probable results of California and, say, New York). Results are further confounded by other factors.
Thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36076870
HN provides an interface to historical front-page stories (https://news.ycombinator.com/front), and that can be crawled by providing a list of corresponding date specifications, e.g.:
https://news.ycombinator.com/front?day=2023-05-25
Easy enough.
So I'm crawling that and compiling a local archive. Rate-limiting and other factors mean that's only about halfway complete, and a full pull will take another day or so.
But I'll be able to look at story titles, sites, submitters, time-based patterns (day of week, day of month, month of year, yearly variations), and other patterns. There's also looking at mean points and comments by various dimensions.
Among surprises are that as of January 2015, among the highest consistently-voted sites is The Guardian. I'd thought HN leaned consistently less liberal.
The full archive will probably be < 1 GB (raw HTML), currently 123 MB on disk.
Contents are the 30 top-voted stories for each day since 20 February 2007.
If anyone has suggestions for other questions to ask of this, fire away.
And, as of early 2015, top state mentions are:
1. new york: 150
2. california: 101
3. texas: 39
4. washington: 38
5. colorado: 15
6. florida: 10
7. georgia: 10
8. kansas: 10
9. north carolina: 9
10. oregon: 9
NY is highly overrepresented (NY Times, NY Post, NY City), likewise Washington (Post, Times, DC). Adding in "Silicon Valley" and a few other toponyms boosts California's score markedly. I've also got some city-based analytics.

One researcher called this "the big data equivalent of book burning.”
"A potential solution is the development of data repositories, universal guidelines for data collection, analysis and sharing, interoperable data standards and protocols among agencies."
This was a fascinating, illuminating, and enraging conversation with Dr Richard Denniss, Executive Director of The Australia Institute, and Professor Margaret Hellard, Deputy Director of the Burnet Institute, about why we're not collecting covid data, and why it matters. This one is really important, so please listen, and share.
RD:"Why aren't we collecting the data? Because they don't want to admit failure. They don't want to make it easy for me to tell you what the cost to GDP of this heroic approach to covid has been."

OK my new podcast is called #DataRevolution, first episode is live https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/2192536.rss
So today I almost joined Storygraph for the second time.
I was tempted because I was thinking about all the different fun ways Storygraph tracks your reading. But then I thought of the fact that my data would then probably be sold off to who knows where and for who knows what purpose.
So I'm going to stick to tracking my reading in my notebook which is what I was already doing. 😅📚📓
Catherine D'Ignazio:
"critical thinking about #data and #AI needs to move beyond the notion of bias and into a deeper engagement with power. Here, power means the structural organization of privilege and oppression in a given society, in which some groups experience unearned advantages and other groups experience systematic and violent disadvantages."
