20 Minutes s’est demandé pourquoi les photos de Wikipédia étaient moches.
On a décidé de lui répondre.
Derrière ce titre peu respectueux, il y a de vrais enjeux, qui concernent autant l'encyclopédie que les journalistes

Un membre de mon Discord rappelle la loi Hadopi : si ton WiFi est utilisé pour pirater Rihanna, c'est toi le responsable.
Mais, si l'ANTS se fait pwnded par un gamin de 15 ans, personne n'est responsable sauf le gamin.

"GitHub Is Slowly Dying

GitHub is currently losing some of what made it feel inevitable. Maybe that’s just the life and death of large centralized platforms: they always disappoint eventually. Right now people are tired of the instability, the product churn, the Copilot AI noise, the unclear leadership, and the feeling that the platform is no longer primarily designed for the community that made it valuable."

@VincentPrivat My pleasure. Over ten years ago, we went through a long debate at ESA about which CC licence to use as the default for image releases. We favoured CC BY, but our lawyers insisted on CC BY-NC.

As we knew that CC BY-SA was the minimum level of “permissiveness” that’d allow images to appear on Wikipedia, we argued & won that compromise.

That’s why I used CC BY-SA for my image: so it could end up on Wikipedia for people to share. Happy to know it’s there already 👍

Enter the Dragon 🐉🥋

Here it is – my new JWST image of the young protostellar outflow system in Cassiopeia called HH288, aka The Dragon Jet.

We discovered it in the 1990s & the NASA/ESA/CSA JWST reveals stunning new detail, including several new jets crossing the main dragon 🙂👍

This is a 4K version – you can view & download the full 12K image here: https://www.flickr.com/gp/markmccaughrean/944q5814f8

@simon @richlv There's speculation in the gaming community there's going to be a new "OSM" version of the Nintendo Switch 2, but what does OSM stand for?? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cRt-e_78f5s Luckily we've got the perfect domain name to document this: https://switch2osm.org/

J'ai quelques échos critiques (sur X) sur la prise de vue faite par le département de Côte d'Or versée dans @panoramax

Les articles de presse et déclarations des uns et des autres sont souvent approximatifs et méconnaissent les détails.

Voici donc quelques précisions dans ce thread :
- le département de la Côté d'Or a faire faire une prise de vue l'été dernier par une entreprise spécialisée (Immergis)
- leur besoin était avant tout pour la gestion des routes départementales
