Recently, there was a viral tweet claiming that NVIDIA is like Sun from the Dot Com Bubble. Despite my best attempts to resist talking about this, I am giving into temptation: on today's Oxide and Friends, @ahl and I will take this one apart. Is NVIDIA like Sun from the Dot Com Bubble? Join us today at 5p Pacific to discuss!

George Santayana a dit : "Ceux qui ne peuvent se rappeler du passé sont condamnés à le répéter." Je prie pour que ce vendredi le 30 juin 2024, les Français se souviennent des leçons du 20ème siècle et de ce que nos ainés ont survécu.

Microsoft Defender thinks you created your own Windows PC virus by writing this one line: "...a text file if one would write the following on it: "This content is no longer available." As soon as you write this on a TXT file and try to save it, Defender flags it as a severe threat since it thinks it is a Casdet trojan..." - I couldn't get this one to repro myself. neowin.net/news/microsoft-defe…
While Windows Defender is generally great, from time to time it flags legit files or websites as malware or virus. In the latest such case, it thinks you made your own virus by writing this line.
@mcourcel I still think that the various public voice-cloning platforms that host artist-based voice AI systems have more direct risk, since you're directly creating something in the likeness of the artist and publishing that without attribution, but Suno / Udio have always felt more like, at most, sampled forms of many songs, enough to be less recognizable. Will be curious how the two different courts will decide this one (if it even gets decided before new copyright laws.)

I can already announce that next IC_Null stream, this tuesday at 3 PM EST, is about the #accessibility of notebooks like #Jupyter, #googleColab, the #VSCode implementation of this concept. If you do #dataScience, #machineLearning, even the polarizing #AI stuff, you are going to run into this at some point. Can a #screenReader user use these properly? Where's the #accessibility hurdles? Do any of these work better than the others? These are all things I'll try to go into. See you Tuesday, 3 PM ESt over at https;//twitch.tv/ic_null or youtube.com/@blindlyCoding #selfPromo
Programming, hacking, gaming, composing music. These are all things a fully blind person using a screen reader can do, given enough technical know-how. On this channel, I show you how it all works. Come stay a while :)
Hi all, Accessibility is one of those topics that is often ignored until it’s too late, at times deliberately, and at other times completely by accident.
oooh I'm excited to join this one if I can having worked with those notebooks a lot in Collab and to see your POV. Also really hope this can lead to somewhere more productive, even just to have a stream about this topic would move it forward (even if they themselves don't take it up) which is a huge win to me already. Best of luck and thanks for putting it on.
For whatever it's worth, and your probably already know this, I'm having to do a lot of Jupyter work recently, and the VS Code implementation (at least with VO, can't speak to Windows) is pretty amazing.
SO when the #accessibility testing, advocating and fixing becomes a bit much it can be rather cathartic to, rather than take " we'll maybe at some point get to this eventually possibly maybe" , you just fireball your obstacles out of existence. I do gaming stoofs too on this tiny little #twitch channel simply called Zersiax, and will be checking out some #diabloIV over there in half an hour. If the new #openSSH vuln is making you sad or the ladybird dev's got you down on your luck, come see stuff getting exploded, it helps, I promise :) See you then, over at https;//twitch.tv/zersiax #selfPromo #gaming #noTechStuffForAChange
My colleague Changwoo wrote a new blog post about sched_ext, now that it's going to be merged in the mainline Linux kernel tree: blogs.igalia.com/changwoo/sche…
This is the second blog post about the sched_ext, a BPF-based extensible scheduler class. In this blog post, I briefly update what has been happening in sched_ext, then introduce the scheduler architecture and the sched_ext API.
I'm happy to announce the availability of my new app "eSIM Manager" on postmarketOS! With it you can manage and install eSIMs on your phone running postmarketOS! No more need to boot into Android to do the same!
For a while eSIM management on Mobile Linux, such as postmarketOS, was just a dream. Now it’s real!
Background Nowadays many smartphones and other devices have a so-called eSIM - or eUICC - built-in to the device.
Last week a new GIR parser was released by Bilal Elmoussaoui! docs.rs/gir-parser/0.1.0/gir_p… It is written in #Rust, but a C binding would be very easy to write. I am really thinking if it could maybe at some point be used as the GIR parser for #Vala Overall it looks very complete and straight forward, also it will be used in the Rust bindings generator, so it will probably be quite stable.
@sonny @flyingpimonster GIR would be indeed nice, probably needs a bit of extra code to do some type registrations, but other than that, it shouldn't be a problem.
@sonny I already have GIR and typelib parsers in pure Python for blueprint. If this was significantly faster I'd maybe consider it... but it would be a decent amount of work.

@fireborn I agree it is disappointing, but the problem space is so big and complex, I find it hard to fault individuals spending their free time in focussing/contributing to things they can actually control and/or achieve.
If anything, focus scorn not on 'the community', but on companies' c-suite who make money off of FOSS and not caring enough to specifically invest back in inclusivity and thus enabling/empowering those developers who do care.

Andrej Babiš vlastně jde i po stejné stezce jako jeho přítel Viktor Orbán, který také svůj Fidesz zakládal jako liberální stranu a nyní je pevně zakopán v národoveckých pozicích.
