Could it be related to the accident in France? The date fits.

Could you pleae provide the CSV file?

Tab-delimited CSV with the raw-data:

The timestamps are in UTC+2. I keep the clock in the Geiger counter on daylight savings time. Too lazy to change it. :)

Out of total curiosity what does your setup look like? Do you have a mode # of what you use? Never read anything about this before. Thanks.

I have the GammaScout Alert: https://www.gamma-scout.com/EN/Home.php

It stores the data in its internal memory which I then transfer via its USB port to my computer once a week.

I'm in Germany and I have a Geiger counter running 24/7. I just looked at the data for January and February and the only thing that I notice is a VERY slightly higher reading on February 4th with 0.1727 microSievert/hour. Average for January was 0.1674, lowest was 0.1631, highest was 0.1703. So February 4th was less than 6% higher than the lowest value from January.

The difference was so small that I had just attributed it to normal fluctuations when I first saw it. Whatever caused this, so far it looks like it was a very small event.

I could probably provide a CSV-file with the raw data if anyone is interested. My Geiger counter stores a value every 5 minutes.

Once AMP stabilizes, I'm hoping Google will encourage the use SRI to ensure that the content is what a site expects: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Security/Subres...

Still unacceptable as it would still cause my users to expose their IP address to someone else's server.

Let's see if I got that right: Specification says I must load the AMP script from cdn.ampproject.org?

If yes, then there is no effing way that I will ever use this. I will NOT use something that forces me to load scripts from a host that I have no control over. Does nobody see what a HUGE security risk that is???

I think it's interesting. The fact that it's written in Pascal takes me back to my youth, when Pascal was still commonly taught as an entry-level language in schools.

It's probably not for everyone, and the license terms suit it best for a hobby projects (LGPL or a more permissive license would be better), but it's neat that it exists.

EDIT: I stand corrected. It is released under the LGPL. That is permissive enough for more use cases when static linking is required.

mschoebel · 9 years ago

Umm... FAQ says:

"What licence does Ultibo use? The GNU LGPL version 2.1, the same licence used by many other popular open source products."

FWIW... I just logged in to my Yahoo Account and removed the security questions. Just to be sure. I had already changed my password a few months ago when first rumors of this came up. I'm pretty sure that the option to remove the security questions wasn't there back then.

See: https://deusu.org

The backend is written in Pascal.

With the exception of the blog. That is written in Node.js. I did that as a way to learn Node.js. But as soon as I find some time I'll rewrite that in Pascal too.

mschoebel · 10 years ago

I probably should also add that I'm using FreePascal - not Delphi - and that the servers are a mix of Windows and Linux.
