I broke a drill bit last night. A tiny 2mm one for pilot holes. Did I drop it, or abuse it? Nope. I drilled the hole then slowly removed the drill perpendicular to the wall, and *ping*, it broke; most of it left in the wood.

I went to the hardware store this morning to seek advice (and another bit) and they said "yeah, mate. They doos that."

Oh, okay.

#TodayILearned that in the mid-1960s, Oklahoma City tore down almost 450 downtown buildings to make way for a grand rethinking of the entire business district, designed by famed architect IM Pei, but then never actually implemented the plan, leaving the entire city's downtown an empty wasteland for decades.

Damon Hill played guitar… on Def Leppard’s Euphoria track on Euphoria! 🤯
I had to check it was the same Damon! And it’s not his only musical credit.

“Music career
Hill was interested in music from an early age and formed the punk band the "Hormones" with some friends while at school. After achieving success in Formula One, he was able to play guitar with several famous musicians, including his friend George Harrison, and appeared on "Demolition Man", the opening track of Def Leppard's 1999 album Euphoria. "I'm quite proud of that one to be honest", Hill told the Fuelling Around podcast. "You can actually hear my guitar as they fade it out towards the end of the song. I think it fits well with the track and it went platinum!"[107]
Hill also made a regular appearance at the British Grand Prix alongside other Formula One musicians such as Eddie Jordan. After his retirement at the end of the 1999 season, Hill devoted more time to music and played with Pat Cash's Wild Colonial Boys.[108] Hill also formed his own band, The Conrods, which was active between 1999 and 2003 and played cover versions of well-known songs from The Rolling Stones, The Beatles and The Kinks. Since becoming president of the BRDC in 2006, Hill says he has stopped playing the guitar, being "too busy doing school runs and looking after pets."[109]”

供应链攻击：

供应链攻击是一种传播间谍软件的方式，一般通过产品软件官网或软件包存储库进行传播。通常来说，黑客会瞄准部署知名软件官网的服务器，篡改服务器上供普通用户下载的软件源代码，将间谍软件传播给前往官网下载软件的用户。此外，黑客还会向一些软件开发者常用的软件包存储库如npm、PyPI和RubyGems等注入带有恶意代码的软件包。这些软件包在用户下载后安装时会触发恶意行为。

比较知名的供应链攻击事有XcodeGhost风波、Target公司的安全漏洞、东欧的ATM恶意软件，以及震网（Stuxnet）电脑蠕虫等。

供应链管理专家建议，为了避免网络犯罪的潜在损失，要对组织的供应网络进行严格的控管。

RE: https://mathstodon.xyz/@juandesant/116278849554634283

Today I (re-)Learned how to remove a pain that I have been having for many years, but now that I asked to the Fediverse, I (re-)found the answer… much as I was imagining it in the last paragraph (so, thanks for being a virtual rubber duck!):

1. Go to System Settings
2. Search for Keyboard shortcuts
3. Click on any of the two results: one pops up the Spotlight keyboard shortcuts, the other pops up the Modifier Keys section.
4. Click on App Shortcuts entry in the sidebar of the pop up
5. Click on the + sign, and in the popup, select Keynote.app in the Applications popup, type Webpage as the menu item name, and then type Command-K (⌘K) on the Keyboard shortcut field.
6. (Just to make sure that I still can use a shortcut for the Slide one, and not just delete it) Click on the + sign, and in the popup, select Keynote.app in the Applications popup (it defaults to All Applications every time), type Slide as the menu item name, and then type Command-Shift-K (⌘⇧K) on the Keyboard shortcut field.

That's it! I can now use ⌘K on Keynote, and just paste the link that I already had in the Keyboard for it… whereas previously that changed the text being displayed in the slide, while linking it to the next slide, which was definitely not what I wanted.

Für die Profis unter Euch sicher ein alter Hut, aber ich habe heute gelernt, dass man Packungen von Kabelbindern nicht oben aufschneidet sondern in der Mitte.

Dadurch können die Kabelbinder nicht rausfallen und lassen sich trotzdem leicht entnehmen.
😃👍

Warum bin ich da nicht selbst drauf gekommen?

In positive news: Today I learned that in 2020 someone calculated the exact antipode of a location on the other side of the planet and organized to place sandwich slices on each side, creating a sandwich with the whole planet earth.

I just find this really wholesome and creative.
