Before AI, I was googling and stackoverflowing the sh_t out of the internet because of subpar/absent/outdated documentation or obscure APIs of a lot of OSS libraries/frameworks. Now I am priming the sh_t out of AI prompts for the same stuff. I don't see much difference, except now I get results faster and more to the point.

The Eclipse Foundation has been experiencing a significant infrastructure outage since April 21, 2025, affecting several core services. While the main website (eclipse.org) remains operational, key components such as the account management system (accounts.eclipse.org), and download servers have been impacted. The root cause has been identified as a storage-related issue, leading to disruptions in authentication and access to Eclipse-hosted tools and services.

As of April 24, 2025, there has been no detailed public explanation or estimated time for full recovery.

I encourage you and everyone else interested to attend a Holotropic Breathwork session to truly grasp the profound impact your breath can have on your mind. This is nothing like your regular five-minute yoga breathing exercise, boxed breathing, or even the Wim Hof breathing. It's a completely different level. These sessions typically last 3 to 5 hours and take place in a safe, supportive setting with a dedicated sitter and experienced facilitators.

And please don’t try this stuff alone at home.

The number on your yearly "birthday" is not the number of birthdays you had (you only have one birthday) but the number of years you survived since your birth.

So the day of your fifth birthday is the first day of your sixth year alive.

It is the opposite. Market timing does not work reliably. Active management produces worse results on the long run. no individual trader or active manager can consistently beat the market. however active fonds may have periods (even several years) where they out perform.

for private investors buy-and-hold of highly distributed ETFs is the best way to do it. The easiest way to get started is a one ETF portfolio like e. g. Vanguard FTSE All World or SPDR MSCI ACWI IMI. They perform internal rebalancing automatically and you virtually have nothing to do. buy them and don't look at them for the next 20 years.

Coming from Java/Maven I was amazed to see the obscure mess in Python world regarding dependency management. After trying all available tools I finally settled on pdm. I also found it to be more intuitive than poetry.
