La Francia in rivolta sui pesticidi riscrive il rapporto tra scienza e potere


@Notizie dall'Italia e dal mondo
Il 7 agosto 2025, il Consiglio costituzionale francese ha dichiarato incostituzionale la cosiddetta legge Duplomb, approvata dal Parlamento un mese prima. La norma prevedeva la reintroduzione dell’acetamiprid, pesticida vietato dal 2018 per la sua comprovata

Pensa se, per effettuare ritorsioni contro governi sgraditi, gmail o il cloud di amazon bloccassero i loro servizi; o se Meta e X ne buttassero gli account ufficiali fuori dai social.

Questo non è "libero mercato", semmai è schiavitù digitale.

💬 Slovakia wants NATO to boost air defences in the country, on its eastern flank, Slovak PM Fico said after a meeting with the military alliance's chief.

Oh, so now he needs NATO's help 🙄



🚀 There is an assumption that none of the four ATACMS missiles aimed at Voronezh was shot down, - Exilenova

Four smoke trails were recorded. These are the trails formed by the ATACMS missile in cluster version at the moment of successful deployment of the warhead over the target.

Later, Russian media published photos of the remains of these missiles - the hulls without warheads, without characteristic damage from air defense.

All this indicates that the missiles were not shot down.



😡 The State Emergency Service also showed footage of the consequences of the Russian attack on Kharkiv.

This is another request of the administration to resume negotiations on ending the war between Ukraine and Russia, according to high-ranking American officials.

Secretary of the Army, along with two generals, will have to meet with Zelensky and other Ukrainian officials, as well as with representatives of the military and industry.



🇺🇦 Zelensky: In Ternopil, nine-story residential buildings were hit, fires broke out. Unfortunately, there is significant destruction of buildings, and people may be under the rubble. As of now, dozens of injured are known and, unfortunately, nine people have died.

A massive attack was on our Kharkiv since the evening. Dozens of people in the city were injured, including children.

Ivano-Frankivsk, Lviv Kyiv, Mykolaiv, Cherkasy, Chernihiv, and Dnipro regions were under attack.



18–19 Nov 2025: #Ukraine repelled a massive russian strike - 524 targets (48 missiles, 476 UAVs) launched in 16 hours.

Air defenses destroyed 483 (92% success): 442 UAVs, 41 missiles.

7 missiles & 34 UAVs hit 14 sites; debris in 6 areas.

Attack ongoing.



🇺🇦 Air Defence shot down or suppressed:

▪️442/476 strike UAVs;
▪️34/40 Kh-101 cruise missiles;
▪️7/7 "Kalibr" cruise missiles;
▪️0/1 "Iskander-M" ballistic missile.

7 missiles and 34 strike UAVs have been recorded hitting 14 locations and fragments have fallen in 6 locations.





The Ukrainian Air Force reported on the overnight attack.

Shot down:
442/476 Shahed and other type drones
34/40 Kh-101 cruise missiles
7/7 Kalibr cruise missiles
0/1 Iskander-M ballistic missile

7 missiles and 34 UAVs have hit 14 locations, and debris from shot down ones fell in 6 locations.



Details from missile debris shown by Russia confirm Ukraine launched ATACMS at Voronezh region on November 18, marking the first use of U.S.-made missiles on Russian territory during Trump’s presidency. According to the Russian MoD, S-400 and Pantsir-S1 systems helped repel the attack.

Ukrainian sources claim a Russian military training ground was hit, and also confirmed several missiles were indeed shot down.

Zelensky is in Ankara for talks with Erdoğan, as a high-level Pentagon delegation arrives in Kyiv. Defense Minister Umerov was among those that welcomed him, quietly dismissing recent false rumors that he had told Zelensky he wouldn’t return to Ukraine.


As expected, Russia launched over 470 drones and 48 missiles overnight in one of its largest attacks to date. In Ternopil, strikes on residential buildings killed at least 9 and injured dozens. Fires broke out, and chlorine levels in the air are dangerously high. Strikes also hit Kharkiv, Ivano-Frankivsk, Lviv, Kyiv, and other regions, with children among the wounded.


In Lviv region, an energy facility was damaged by a Russian strike. A woodworking plant and a warehouse were also hit, with large fires still burning, particularly at a civilian tire storage site on the city’s outskirts. Emergency crews are struggling to contain the blaze due to the complex materials involved.

Just for fun: here's p=0.99 and p=1.0. The last image clearly shows why you can't use direct light sampling alone and need to combine it with something else (uniform/brdf sampling/etc) via MIS or NEE:
in reply to Nikita Lisitsa

@Nikita Lisitsa Both are definitely moods, but they are a good demonstration of the difference between p=0.99 and p=1 even in other fields where statistics are involved. It isn't linear from p=0 to p=1.
Questa voce è stata modificata (2 mesi fa)


Fixed the MIS implementation, now it converges to the same image as basic uniform direction sampling. Time for tests: 4 renders with different values of light sampling probability. p=0.25 seems to be the best, and reduces noise severely:
in reply to Nikita Lisitsa

@Nikita Lisitsa I note two things:
- Increased probability increase render time.
- Extreme values (0 and 0.75) look similar, while 0.25 has a very distinct feeling.

If you go for smoothness, p=0.25 is the best, and has much better performance than higher p values. If you go for roughness, p=0 would be the best as p=0.75 seems to be costly for a similar effect.

What does p=1 do?
