Such tricks were was predictable, as VSCode extensions, letting arbitrary JS run on your system, are an obvious security risk.
Recently I used Zed editor instead, it's smooth, but this also has extensions, only these are fewer and in rust ( maybe a higher barrier, targeting less users, so far... ). What's the solution here - is there some intrinsically safer sandboxed system ?

Back to what car ???

I like the haystacks. As also in alpine countries, they seem a fundamental part of the scenery. I guess they matter especially where livestock moves to mountain pastures in summer, while the hay from valley meadows gets them through the winter.
Maybe the tractor age is temporary, as smaller robots may surpass them in efficiency. So could anybody design robots to help with stacking and combing hay, if there are not enough young people to do it?

I read that you can graft apple-family fruits onto hawthorn too, has anybody here tried that?

Important topic. If more effort had been put earlier into lie-defence, maybe they'd need less air-defence.
But I'm confused by this part - seems contradictory, can anybody clarify - does he have roles for people to fill, or not ?

Nonetheless, Ukraine needs a new training and certification scheme, Potiy said, ambitiously aiming at fostering a new generation of cyber security specialists, “tens of thousands if not more,” with solid jobs within Ukraine. It is one of his core ambitions for his first year in charge of the agency. “We have educational institutions that turn out cybersecurity specialists who could provide services,” Potiy continued. “But there’s no job market.”

I'd like to have no phone at all, I don't like small screens, nor being interrupted. Problem is that phone apps are now almost obligatory for IDs, transport tickets, passes, banking, etc. So I'd just like a phone-receiver (modem) with a sim card on a USB stick that can enable phone-app-stuff via my laptop or tablet. (Yes some tablets have data sim cards, but we still need sms and occasional phone functions for 'verification' etc.). Any suggestions?

No. first line in the article - "emissions in the world's second-largest economy rose slightly as coal remained dominant". It's bad news. Also, article is about 2024 and your plots stop in 2019/20.
However your question is reasonable - when they made such "intensity" (emit-per-gdp) based targets, it seemed like a way to avoid constraining the economy and disguise emissions growth - but they didn't anticipate the covid slump and such rapid demographic peaking, so maybe they'll change the methodology for next ndc target.

This sounds positive, albeit unlikely it’s enough.
As I don't follow the biodiversity COPs like the climate COPs, I'll ask - was this like a COP16bis, and deal with or without US ?
I still recall UNFCCC-COP6bis which was a success despite Bush govt pulling out, inspired the rest of the world to unite.
And are people optimistic about COP17 in Armenia? Hope inspired to do better than Azerbaijan with climate. I suppose all Caucasus has much unique mountain biodiversity, maybe this can help overcome political divisions.

I'm more interested in distribution of users and local-focus of communities than country-based instances, nevertheless the map does illustrate that Lemmy has huge gaps - no country instance in all of Africa, hardly any in Asia... What can we do to make it a more global conversation ?

Too true, and good analogy with building a house extension...

" countries in the Anglosphere experience the highest costs for building transit due to overbuilding and overdesigning".

Too true ... Look at HS2, they didn't need to aim for 400km/h, now they can't afford to finish it.
So - hope Canada can do better.
Maybe Sweden is a better example to study in this case ?

I recall Putin himself expressed that, at a big climate conference they hosted in Moscow in 2003. But of course, there were also plenty of intelligent russian scientists who understand that melting permafrost, burning forests, flooded cities, and grey rain replacing white snow, is not such a great idea.
