ITU X.680 was clearly written by a very large committee: it defines approximately 35 different string types, base 2 and base 10 floating point numbers, an unbounded integer type. But no natural number type 🤷♂️

Firefighters and young farmers raise thousands after postman’s near‑fatal heart tear
Fifty‑five‑year‑old Heath Barron, who also served as a retained firefighter, suffered three cardiac episodes in March before being rushed under blue lights to Morriston Hospital.
Doctors later discovered a ventricular septal defect (VSD) — a tear in the wall of his heart — forcing medics to place him in a medically induced coma for four weeks and carry out emergency surgery, including fitting two stents and a closure device.
Now recovering at home, Heath says he owes his life to the cardiac team.
Heath Barron said:
“It all just came out of the blue… I had no idea anything was wrong until I finally went into hospital. The team that treated me were incredible — there are no words to express my gratitude.”
Fire crew walk miles to thank the team who saved their colleague
Determined to give something back, Heath’s fellow firefighters at Kenfig Hill laced up their boots for a sponsored walk all the way to Morriston Hospital.
The challenge raised £7,650, split between the Cardiac Intensive Therapy Unit (ITU) and the Cardiac Critical Care Unit.
Heath said the support from his colleagues meant the world as he continues his recovery.
Young Farmers raise £3,500 in memory and gratitude

The Cardiac ITU also received a major boost from Llanddarog Young Farmers’ Club, who raised £3,500 after two members of their community received lifesaving care at the unit.
One was club leader Peter Howells, treated around eight years ago. The other was former member Eifion Davies, who sadly passed away in 2022 after receiving care at the unit.
Club secretary Carys Phillips said:
“The Cardiac unit helped people who helped us, so it’s very close to our hearts. We spent two years fundraising — carol concerts, tractor runs, everything — to thank them for the amazing work they do.”
The money will help fund simulation mannequins, new pulmonary artery catheter monitors and staff training for new dialysis equipment.
Hospital staff say donations help save lives
Senior staff at Morriston’s Cardiac ITU said the donations directly support lifesaving care.
Senior Sister Michelle Porter said:
“Staff work extremely hard to provide high levels of care… charitable funds go a long way to ensuring this continues.”
Matron Manjula Sajeevan said:
“It is humbling to see our patients value the care they received. Their fundraising motivates the team to continue delivering the high standards our patients deserve.”
“Truly inspiring,” says Swansea Bay Health Charity
Lewis Bradley, Charity Manager at Swansea Bay Health Charity, praised both groups for their extraordinary efforts.
Lewis Bradley said:
“Your incredible fundraising and community spirit are truly inspiring. Your generosity will make a real and lasting difference to the patients cared for in these units.”

My last video mixing shift for this congress was on:
Who runs the www? WSIS+20 and the future of Internet governance by Sophia Longwe
https://cfp.cccv.de/39c3/talk/DBWBG8/
I need to watch the talk again as I didn't catch all of it, but I really enjoyed the speaker's focus on internet governance though the lens of the inclusion of underrepresented, non-techy, non-male, non-white, non-occidental populations.
Highly recommend watching it (and I hope my mixing made it justice, my camera angels did great work!).

@gartleyfdn yes and no.

So much for the UN being a “tool of the USA”. #unitedNations
