Well, at least in my experience with EU projects, they tend to be much more restrictive with data sharing than equivalent US institutions: e.g. a lot of paid EUMET data has publicly available NOAA equivalents - though usually of worse quality.

Yes! That government agencies data is PD is a nice feature of US law, we should implement that in EU.

Try to ask the NRO for their images and see how you go :)

Intelligence gathering data vs weather data. Yeah, that's the same thing.

Not Public Domain, TD - Taxpayers Domain. :)

Not sure why you're being down-voted. US weather models are free. EU models are not.

Depends on which model. Only really the ECMWF weather model is not fully free. The German, French, Dutch, ... models are all free (regional and global models). Of course, these global models are generally less accurate than ECMWF, still ECMWF has a lot of free data available too. US models are also freely available, and quite easy to work with (as opposed to some European ones).

You can see the most important charts from the ECMWF model for free on ecmwf.int. But you will not get the data behind them.

Yes, it's not everything, but it's a start.


I can manage fine with other search indexes for English language searches; weather that is because others got better or google got worse i cannot tell, though I suspect the latter.

But for searching in more niche languages google is usually the only decent option and I have little hope that others will ever reach the scale where they could compete.


Maybe, but at least in my circles it’s a structure thing- until the group actually can be organised in a single chat sanely something else will be used- but as soon as multiple chats are required the thing is moved on discord.


Admittedly I do not know how much of a sensitive issue this is, but I find it surprising that the name given at birth is not mentioned anywhere on the Wikipedia page, even though in other cases of name change usually "Name (born Old Name)" is written.


Their guidelines on using dead names says why that is.

I don't know if any dataset of pre 1904 writing would be large enough to train a model that would be smart enough. I suspect that current sized SOTA models would at least get to special relativity, but for general relativity and quantum mechanics I am less sure.


So they can write a strongly worded letter?


And Balkan on the southeastern.


Amazon was basically conducting a price war founded by AWS division. Unless GOG is trying to undercut Steam this is a bit apples and oranges.


Underfunded and wasteful are not opposites. When there is not enough money to do things properly there is often a lot of duct tapping going on which waste available resources without fixing anything. There is scarcely anything more expensive in government than saving money.


The amount of things Trump did circumventing Congressional approval might suggest that he does not a clean pass even though Republicans have majority in both the house and the senate.


They have (had?) the power to impeach the president for a lot less than he's already done. Yet they don't.


That's on Congress for allowing Trump to repeatedly circumvent their approval.
