Xavier MarecaThe Tokaido Shinkansen continues operating in conditions that would shut down most rail systems.
**Engineering behind it:**
🔹 Advanced snow detection sensors
🔹 Heated track switching systems
🔹 Aerodynamic design prevents snow buildup
🔹 Real-time monitoring & predictive maintenance
🔹 Automated de-icing systems
Since 1964, the Shinkansen has maintained a perfect safety record while running at 320 km/h.

KDEThis petition wants contributing to Free Software to be legally and officially recognized as volunteering in Germany on the same level as youth work or ambulance service:
This would bring fiscal and funding advantages for FLOSS organizations and the volunteers themselves.
If you are a German citizen, please sign the petition and let's get our volunteers the recognition they deserve!

Michael HankeI am looking to migrate a bunch of domains. I am searching for a registrar with good reputation and ethics. Ideally one that is unlikely to be blackmailed by foreign governments to punish individuals with a if-you-want-to-continue-business-in-our-market... threat. I am EU/Germany based. I learned that gandi.net may no longer live up to its former reputation.
Thanks for any pointers and opinions!
py5codingNew #py5 release! One last release before the end of the year.
This release adds to py5's integrations with #trimesh and #matplotlib. The ideas behind these improvements came from #pythonbrasil last October. Thank you for everyone who attended the tutorial @villares and I taught!
In addition, there are some small bug fixes and other small improvements in this release.
