Finally “Julian Assange is free. He left Belmarsh maximum security prison on the morning of 24 June, after having spent 1901 days there. He was granted bail by the High Court in London and was released at Stansted airport during the afternoon, where he boarded a plane and departed the UK,” WikiLeaks said

"I’m no longer interested in encouraging the design of more human-centered versions of these murderous technologies, or to inform the more humane administration of complex algorithmic systems [...] I think we must forcefully put on the table the possibility that we will destroy systems that fail to make a compelling affirmative case for their existence. That threat must be credible. We should actively undermine and sabotage systems, and recognize that labor as a moral project that we engage in, the way luddites sabotaged machinery that tore people apart."
I think it's very encouraging to also see academics to start joining camp hashtag#luddite. For a long time even critical academic voices were too focused on salvaging the hashtag#AI space. To "get rid of the bad actors" or "introduce ethics" instead of allowing themselves to just say: "NO." And we need to start saying "NO" a _lot_ more.
Changing lanes in merica. According to that subreddit.
Though that is not what I experienced when driving there.
"You understand code a lot better if you write it than if you read it."
"But if an AI takes away the writing of a code, .... people will understand it much moor poorly".
"Axiomatically a bad thing."

Just created a veed video by using #chatgpt.
The creation phase felt exciting, but the outcome was really shitty 😂
The worst waste of time of that day. Until now....

Finally reached a state where soldering and coding is done. #dragonstuff can come 😃
What's the solution to that? One that comes to my mind is having something like "I am not a bot" or "I am older than 13" but....
# "I can solve this math exam for 13 year olds to get to that website"
That would be an awesome porn blocker :D

Let me ask you a question:
What has the company "Ethical Capital Partners" bought in 2023?
* [ ] Something ethical in a conservative sense
* [ ] Something else
#aquire #merger #investment #fonds

The perfect description for guys with big guns.

Currently #Debian linux is going through a massive migration project to rely on a 64 bit time rather than a 32 bit time (to avoid #y2k38). Debian has these migrations from time to time. About 10 years ago there was a migration to leap a C++ ABI change. Every time these come up I'm amazed at how well executed they are and by how the core dpkg/apt tools have proven their fundamental over and over again for 30 (!!!!) years. I am so thankful to everyone involved in Debian for such a reliable OS.

ich find es publizistisch "genial", dass sie geschafft haben End-To-End-Encryption so umzudefinieren, dass sie weiterhin davon reden können, obwohl sie dort eine Instance-In-The-Middle reinsetzen wollen
