How hard is it to be specific? People are concerned about this, can they not tell us the exact data they share and with whom, or is doing so going to make people more concerned so they are avoiding telling us?
I love seeing stingrays. I used to walk around the waterfront in Wellington often at lunchtime, and if you paid attention you could occasionally see stingrays in the water if it was calm enough.
It seems they do not own the .NZ domain but are the manager of it. They were specifically formed to take responsibility for it (in 1995). It seems anyone can become a member by paying $21 a year. They are a registered charity so I guess this is their funding?
There's more info on their wikipedia page but it clears up very few of your questions.
So if I'm reading this right, some freeze peach campaigners don't like the new constitution proposal that governs the .NZ domain registrar and so they are getting all their supporters to become members so they can vote it down?
That's pretty crazy. I can imaging that call saying a dolphin jumped in their boat was probably a pretty unique day for the radio operator and DOC ranger as well.
Ah I see how that could work. The stations have wifi or mobile network, then Google Location Services uses that to pinpoint to the station. You will at the very least know the location of the defect to between two specific stations. Then you can use the other sensors to narrow it down.
If you do not want someone on a property you occupy, you can give them a trespass notice.
Trespassing is when someone (who is not the owner or occupier of the property):
enters your property (or a property you legally occupy - for example, as the tenant) after you have told them not to enter, or
refuses to leave after you have told them to leave
We seem to use the term "tresspass" both to mean someone is trasspassing, and also to mean giving someone a tresspass notice. If you tresspass someone from the premises, then you have given them a tresspass notice (verbal or written). It's probably a colloquial term.
If you mean running the lemmy software on your own hardware to have your own instance, you don't need programming skills for that. Self-hosting things is a related but different skillset. There's a decent learning curve, though.
If you are familiar with self-hosting, you can probably set up a Lemmy instance pretty easily. If you are not, then running a publically federating service is probably not a good starting point. You should be able to search up a beginners guide to self-hosting, or take a look at !selfhosted@lemmy.world. I think hosting a personal wiki is a good starting point, since it is then a good place to write down everything you've learnt!
An iPad isn't really a good server. You could use an old laptop or pay for a cheap VPS as a starting point. Many people start with a Raspberry Pi.
No one has replied so I will give it a go, but take it with a grain of salt as I'm no expert.
The first thing that stands out to me is that you're in India. India exports a lot of remote work to other countries, but I am not clear on how to get into this if that's what you are interested in. There is a good chance that what works in my country is not what works for yours.
However, I think there are a few key things that probably apply.
First, qualifications are what you use to get a job. The skills you need to do the job you will learn on the job. No qualification can replace experience, so I would suggest you try to get into a (relevant) job as soon as you can. Look at entry level jobs for people with your degree, and look at what they are asking for in the job description. Remember they will ask for everything they want but in most cases their perfect person doesn't exist so you only need to meet 50-70% of what they are asking for. If you have 50% I'd apply. Entry level jobs are tough competition so be prepared to apply for a lot of jobs to get an interview, and make sure you prepare for the interview (think about what questions they will ask, and come prepared with answers - ones that can be easily tweaked to fit different questions because they aren't going to ask exactly what you prepare). It can also help to do a practice interview with a friend, have them ask the questions and you give answers as if you are in a real interview.
Education isn't a step that happens before you get a job, it's something you will continue through your career, so don't think you need to get the certifications first and then get a job. Get a job as soon as you have the CV that lets you get one, then continue on the smaller certifications based on what you feel you are missing. The job ads will also help you decide on further qualifications. If you're having trouble getting interviews, look at what is commonly listed as a wanted certification in different job ads, and start working towards one of them. Keep applying for jobs, put "Currently working towards X certification" in your CV if it's relevant to the job.
If you are getting interviews but aren't getting the job, then the issue is not your qualifications. Interviewing is a skill, the more you do it the better you will get. I also like to recommend people apply for jobs with multiple roles going, if you can. That way you don't have to be the best candidate, just second or third best.
Networking is also underrated. Make friends with people in your classes, keep in contact after you graduate. Learn what jobs they get, and ask for advice on getting in. Ask if their workplace has any jobs going.
I'm hoping this advice is generic enough but you will have a better idea of how things work in India, and if you don't, make friends with those wanting to work in the same areas you're interested in and ask their advice.
It's not that Lemmy couldn't allow you to follow Mastodon users, the technology allows it. It's just not high on the priority list to actually develop.
I'm keen to find out how these laws work in collaboration with your other post on Māori getting endlessly stopped when leaving shops.
I also love it when the government introduces laws to help certain groups (in this case retailers), when those same groups say it won't help and they won't use it. Sometimes I wonder if looking like they are doing something while doing nothing is this government's MO.

I still sometimes think about my first email address, and how it had a four letter password. Just signed up at Yahoo, it wasn't anything special.
