QC pass. Bought some Ali Pozidriv impact bits to replace the ones that shattered in cold weather driving a big screw into a frozen stump at max torque.

The stump is frozen again, so I drove the same screw, which this time broke the screw, not the bit. Another went in fine (at the top highest torque setting of the impact driver).

So according to my not peer reviewed research, these are better than Bosch and Forte Tools 👍

Ich wurde mit meinem Problem an das #BIT verwiesen. Dieses antwortet, ich müsse mich an das zuständige Departement wenden.
Bin gespannt, wann sich da eine Lösung des Problems ergibt. Ich werde wohl noch ein paar Tests machen müssen.

🆕 blog! “The irony of TicketMaster's breach notification email”

TicketMaster has joined the long list of companies to lose their customers' information. As is common, they sent out an email to warn poor sods like me who might have had our details snaffled. Their email is particularly poor and contains a delightful example of how not to communicate issues like…

One of my most favorite sci-fi characters has zero bullshit and maximum chill. That character is #Bit, from #Tron. I love him so so much. Especially when he gets really excited. YES YES NO NO NO! 🥰 youtu.be/_fGujzulsas

It was Tron that really influenced me as a little kid. Not a big surprise I ended up in #infotech as I have.

Much like #Airplane and #Clue, Tron can do no wrong. They are foundational parts of my upbringing. A part of me. :) #Movies #today #MoreAboutMe

#today is my #SalesForce associate cert sit. I really am hoping I pass. I want to pass, this will be a step in the right direction for me. Thanks @blinditorg staff, and #BIT students for really supporting both me and each other since july; may we all succeed and may we all continue to support each other as the time draws nigh toward the real thing. Happy friday all.

Is it just me, or does {bit64} and {testthat} behave unexpectdly?

In this example, {testthat} thinks that these two bit64::integer64 values are the same, and does not throw an error?

A reproduction on someone else's machine would be welcomed!

Is it because {testthat} is doing a comparison of the underlying floating point value, rather than using bit64's idea of equality?

Der Bund scheint vieles davon bisher in seiner Interaktion mit seinen IT-Dienstleistern vernachlässigt zu haben. Zumindest liest sich der Brief so, den das auch für Bürostühle zuständige Bundesamt für Bauten und Logistik #BBL vor zwei Wochen versandte und @revogt in #InsideIT veröffentlichte.

Ich befürchte, dass vor dem Versand auch keine Koordination mit IT-Sicherheitspersonen aus dem #BIT oder #NCSC erfolgte.

I've read a lot of books about black holes. Some have more impressive illustrations/visual aids than others.

While this particular book doesn't have the most impressive visual aids, it does a marvelous job of describing the fundamental unit of information; the bit, contained within the smallest scale possible, the Planck length.
