Open Source Maintainers Are Drowning in Junk Bug Reports Written By AI - Slashdot

Ciao a tutti @admin@puntarella.party @admin@mastodon.bida.im @janitor @bluberrycookie @antanicus @gabriele

Ho notato che il server a.gup.pe risulta sospeso da puntarella ("responsabili di attacco DDoS a bida") e bida o silenziato da lucci.xyz e devianze ("Domain used for DOS attacks.") perché "Domain used for DOS attacks"

In realtà il server gup serve solo a creare gruppi activitypub e i suoi account sono tutti gruppi che (un po' come le vecchie liste di distribuzione) consentono agli utenti di fare conversazioni tematiche. Se ci sono account molesti (immagino sia soprattutto shitposting) da quel server è solo colpa dei singoli utenti che lo usano; dovrebbero perciò essere sospesi quei singoli utenti o al massimo i singoli gruppi

Per essere più chiari, l'admin di gup non gestisce i gruppi gup. E gli account gup.pe non possono spammare, ma al massimo sono gli account di altre istanze del Fediverso che li menzionano, menzionando altri utenti: basta bloccare loro!

Chiamare questo un attacco DdOS è quindi sbagliato.

Qui potrete trovare una spiegazione di come funziona il sistema di gruppi di gup.pe: a.gup.pe/

Come saprete io non amo particolarmente i gruppi gup.pe e preferisco utilizzare i gruppi Friendica (che funzionano praticamente allo stesso modo dei gruppi gup) oltre che i gruppi Lemmy e, in realtà, ne gestisco direttamente diversi, ma ritengo che anche i gruppi gup.pe siano un patrimonio importante per tutto il Fediverso e che quindi non dovrebbero essere mai bloccati.

Fatemi avere un riscontro e, se avete informazioni diverse da quelle che ho io, proprio per i motivi che ho spiegato sopra, sono comunque direttamente interessato a capire quali possono essere i rischi potenziali. Quindi per favore, fatemi sapere 😅

New page on seirdy.one: Scrapers I block (and allow), with explanations.

I’ve replaced all the comments in my robots.txt file with a more readable and detailed web page on scrapers I block. It includes info on the multiple blocking-approaches and criteria I use, commonly-blocked scrapers I allow, and more fact-checking than most of the more comprehensive alternatives.

Is anyone looking at levels of volunteer activity in digital public goods like Wikipedia, Reddit, and stackoverflow and whether exploitation of user content is associated with a decline in human participation?

As companies use ai to convert communal public goods into AI products, while extracting value from them, we could see a general decline in contributions that could lead to ecosystem collapse. Would love to see in depth scholarship wrestling with this. Cc @mako

Today NYC Mayor Eric Adams said he hoped recent events would accelerate implementation of a mask ban.

Reminder: There is no evidence that mask bans stop crime. Mask bans make cities more unsafe because preventing people from wearing masks increases the spread of diseases.

I'm going to geek out about a pop song. Something randomly made me think of the song "Lights" by Ellie Goulding (first released in 2010, then as a single in 2011). Yes, it has the same four-chord sequence through pretty much the whole song. So if you're going to do that, it's important to have variation in the arrangement, and especially a good build-up. The single version really ruins this IMO. Compare:

Album version: youtube.com/watch?v=LPVBLA8Ked…
Single version: youtube.com/watch?v=HbrX49BZd3…

The difference in length is only 35 seconds. And why was 4 minutes 5 seconds deemed too long for radio anyway? But to shave off those 35 seconds, they condensed the song too much for my taste.

For example, the single version brings in the bass and four-on-the-floor kick drum as soon as the vocal starts, and adds the snare halfway through the first verse. The album version doesn't start the kick drum until halfway through the first chorus, and saves the snare until the second verse.

But the way they actually eliminated those 35 seconds was by shortening both the bridge and ending, and pushing elements of both to earlier in the song. The cello (or whatever that instrument is) from the original bridge is moved into the latter half of the second verse, where it now has to compete with the vocal, and the breakdown from the original bridge is gone. Then one of the "home, home" lines from the ending is moved into what's left of the bridge.

I wonder what exactly motivated those changes to the single version of the song. I guess the point of bringing in the full rhythm section faster would be to sell the song to the listener faster. But why shorten the bridge and ending, and move sections of both into earlier parts of the song? Did someone determine that there was actually too much bridge and ending in the original?

And would I think there was something amiss if I had never heard the original? Probably not.

@pesh I think I only knew about the album version because the local radio station where I first heard the song (in 2017) played that version, probably by mistake. That station also played non-standard mixes of some other songs. The operations of that independently owned station seemed, on the whole, only semi-competent. Yet I was cheering for it as the underdog. I might do a whole thread on that for the station's would-be 10th anniversary early next year.

Things that are remixed for radio are usually bad. I'm glad that with the advent of streaming services, that practice seems to be going away a bit. And then there's the song Better in Time by Leona Lewis, which had a single version that has a much better build-up and now seems to have supplanted the album version, but I remember struggling to find it in good quality in 2008.

The Fenrir screen reader has moved. The new repository, where development is continuing, is located at:

git.stormux.org/storm/fenrir

There have been some major changes with more to come. One thing that will affect existing users is, there is no longer a fenrir-daemon separate from the main launcher. It now launches in the background using just "fenrir" with the old option to run in the foreground now a flag. So to launch and keep Fenrir in the foreground:

fenrir -f

This means those relying on service files for systemd or runit, you will need to update your service file for the new version. The fenrir-git package available from the AUR is already updated for the new version. If you use a package manager such as yay to install and update fenrir, you may want to remove the existing cached package before upgrading:
rm -rf ~/.cache/yay/fenrir-git
yay -S fenrir-git

There will be a stable release coming hopefully later this month. Thee has been lots of refactoring and code cleanup over the last couple weeks.

If you are interested in contributing to Fenrir, pull requests are welcome or contact me if you would like to be added directly to the project. Both python coders and documentation writers are needed.

So how did they catch him?

Was it the thousands of hours of NYPD overtime, for cops walking around central park? No.

Was it Sherlock Holmes style detective work? No.

Someone dropped a dime on him, while he was eating his McMuffin.

And he conveniently had the weapon and his manifesto on him.🤦🏿‍♂️
