The Planck's law paper.
Here we list public domain academic papers. They must be public domain in the country of origin, not just the US, which had generally less stringent timings with the 95 year after publication rule rather than life + 70, which often ends up being publication + 110/120. Once these are reached, they may be upload to Wikimedia Commons!

Ciro Santilli has enjoyed doing projects dealing with with lots of data! They usually have a large overlap with Ciro Santilli's naughty projects, but not always!
This mini-project walks the category hierarchy Wikipedia dumps and dumps them in various simple formats, HTML being the most interesting!

Buying October 2023 as an immediate backup phone after the Google Pixel 3a (2020) touchscreen died, and Motorola Moto G6 Play (2018) wouldn't connect to giffgaff.
Still working checks: May 2024.
www.gsmarena.com/motorola_moto_g6_play-9002.php Upgradable to Android 9.
2023-10: unable to connect to Giffgaff. "Network unavailable". Same SIM works in other phones. So annoying. Update APN to match: www.giffgaff.com/help/articles/internet-apn-settings-guide. Went next to a tower and then got signal. So the receiver is much worse than the pixel one. Vibration appears to be broken.
Authy sync worked: 2023.
December 2023: found the keys for the Kryptonite Kryptolock and the Abus in the house, so now I've got backup!
2023 lost one of the two keys to Kryptonite Kryptolock and to the Abus padlock:
- rebuying cryptonite, seems exactly the same. If the old key is ever found, it can re-enter usage.
- replacing Abus padlock buying a similarly featured Master lock "commercial" padlock, looks like this one: www.screwfix.com/p/master-lock-excell-laminated-steel-master-keyed-weatherproof-padlock-51mm/153KH
2018 Kryptonite Kryptolock. Looks like: www.kryptonitelock.com/en/products/product-information/current-key/002031.html Includes Transit Flexframe-U Bracket carrier

Ciro Santilli 37 Updated 2025-07-16During the early 2020s, many of the idiotic social media platforms started adding a non optional "feature" of suggesting feed posts by people you don't follow:
It must have been some A/B testing overload that made that decision to try and make things more addictive for everyone. Or perhaps as a way to drive revenue with people paying to cheat the algorithm and boost their posts.
