Soevereine cloud? Of vegan kipfilet?

Aanstaande donderdag bespreek ik op CyberSecNL de soevereine clouds van Microsoft, Google en Amazon.

Ik sprak met een aantal van hen over hun diensten en stelde hen allen drie dezelfde vragen. Hun antwoorden zullen je wellicht verbazen.

Donderdag 11.25 mainstage op CyberSecNL.

Clouded Judgment: Why U.S. Tech Giants Can’t Guarantee Sovereignty

From sanctions to subpoenas, the political reach of the United States extends deep into the infrastructure of Amazon, Microsoft, and other tech giants.

Israel is a terrorist state.

A terrorist state that is committing genocide.

Anyone who does not understand this at this point does not want to understand it on purpose and is a genocide denier. (And thus complicit in genocide as genocide denial is the last and final stage of genocide.)

Hamas isn't committing crimes against humanity?! For reeeeal? October the 7th is one of the most hideous crimes seen in the whole history. Terror attacks on civilians, killing, raping, stealing people, devastating peaceful kibutzim (villages) in Israel — that's not a crime for you? Then I don't know what is. #Israel

@gme I don't know what this word means (catastrophe, I guess, or something in the lines), but the state of Israel was officially recognized by UN and the whole world. Most attacks on Israel throughout all these years targeted especially civilians, and this particular conflict started from October the 7th, when 1200 people were killed with absolutely no reason.

You should learn your history.

Palestinian land was given to Zionists by the UK in 1947.

Land the UK didn't own and had no right to give away.

Why didn't the UK give the Zionists the Isle of Man or the Isle of Wight? Or land in Wales or Scotland?

Oh yeah, because the people there would have been pissed.

How would you feel if the US came in and gave your town away and kicked you, your family, your friends, and everyone else that lived there out so Israelis could live there?

@gme Even though I wouldn't come (after 80 years) and kill, rape and take people hostages, it's absolutely disgusting and unacceptable. If they reckon such a huge injustice was committed, they must go civilized and diplomatic ways. And by "they" I mean official people in power elect by democratic elections, and not a terrorist organization like hamas.

@gme Ooh, and you say hamas isn't ethnically cleansing Israeli people. But it is, or rather, it would if it had enough power. The disgusting "From the river…" slogan means just it: killing all Jews between Jordan and the sea. #Israel

Backup password. Security passphrase. Recovery key.

Having two passwords can be confusing enough. But calling the same thing differently across apps? That's chaos.

@andybalaam will walk us through why you need 2 passwords in Matrix, and how we can do better with non-technical terms and metaphors.

Don't miss his talk at #MatrixConf2025!

After almost 900 people were arrested at a London protest against the ban on Palestine Action in the UK, a new Banksy mural depicting a judge hitting a protester appeared. #Banksy#FreedomofSpeech#Gazawww.bbc.com/news/article...

The artwork, which shows a judge hitting a protester with a gavel, was confirmed by the elusive street artist.

The world clock in Google's current clock application centers the HH:MM:SS clock with a fixed padding on the left and right side.

However, it is not using a monospace font.

Meaning that the digits jump around left and right (and also extend/shrink to the top and bottom) every second, most noticeably when the second goes x0 → x1 → x2.

I am at the same time very and not at all surprised that this made it to prod.

Two screnshots of said world clock, overlaid to illustrate the effect.

For the past few months I have been visiting daily the home pages of Wikipedia's English and Italian (my native language) editions. Since featured articles and highlights change every day these pages are incredible resources for discovering facts, stories, places, and connections on all sorts of topics.

ИИ — просто мешок слов. Как перестать видеть интеллект там, где его нет

#ai #LLM

Наука — это «задача сильного звена»: даже если мы произведём в миллион раз больше посредственных исследований, окажемся там же, где и сейчас.
Если нам нужно больше действительно сильных работ, чем же наполнять "мешок" LLM? Можно забивать его статьями, но часть из них — сфабрикованы, часть — просто ошибочны, и все они содержат неявные допущения, которые могут оказаться ложными.
К тому же часто не хватает ключевой информации — нет данных, недостаточно подробно описаны методы.

Предприниматель Маркус Страссер, пытавшийся сделать компанию из серии «положим все статьи в "мешок" → ??? → профит», в итоге отказался от затеи, заявив, что «почти ничего из того, что действительно делает науку наукой, не опубликовано в виде текста в интернете».

Даже лучший "мешок" в мире бесполезен, если в него не положить правильные вещи.

Who Let The Dogs Out 🐾

#ai #LLM

«Мешок слов» — не супруг, не наставник, не босс и не раб. Это инструмент. Его предназначение — снимать с нас рутину и усиливать наши способности. Его социальный статус — отсутствует; бессмысленно спрашивать, «лучше» ли он нас. Настоящий вопрос такой: становимся ли мы лучше, когда им пользуемся?

Friday's episode of the podcast I do with my wife was a really fun one. Bit of a nostalgia trip, talking about things we collected as kids like Tamagotchis, Furbies and so on. If you haven't checked us out yet, please do. Might be something you enjoy. 51 episodes in and my wife and I talk about all sorts, never political, no sponsors, no ads, hopefully very little wasted time. If you've a mind, please pass it along as well, never know who's out there, who might be looking for something brand new to listen to.

Tuesday.

For the third time in as many months, some agency is offering me a .com version of the domain I use for personal email because it might "be relevant for my personal or business use". If I'd wanted the .com, I'd have bought it when I got the .me nearly 12 years ago.
Domain tarting shouldn't be a thing.

Daughter's gone off to school most cheerful and isn't back until tomorrow for it is sleeping over at a friend's home. I suspect my evening will end yet again with massaging some sort of cream or oil into some part of the wife's body, as she's really feeling the aches and pains at this stage in the pregnancy. Not exactly fun or unusual, but we're plodding on.

Busy day at work and a bit extra afterward, but I should be done by 6 or 6:30 tonight.

Is anyone else noticing the AI music popping up on Spotify and other streaming platforms? I’ll be fucking pissed if my very personal lyrics are stolen from Suno and uploaded without my permission. I’d put them up under my own name, but I have my own album on Spotify, so I can’t do that. And, technically, only the lyrics are mine. The instrumentation and melodies are not always mine. Some of them are, some of them aren’t.

This day in history...I mean present: first ever end-to-end encrypted message to be sent from a #dumbphone?

git.disroot.org/badrihippo/con…

Using #Convo on #KaiOS, powered by #ConverseJS, #XMPP, #OMEMO, and #libsignal :xmpp:

The same phone as in the previous message, but zoomed in a bit closer so you can see the screen a bit more clearly
Screenshot of a button with a cable sticking out from the top. On the screen is a chat conversation displaying the message: "hi from banana hopefully with omemo"

Activate libsignal-protocol.js 🎉 · c95d048c9d

This lays the groundwork for OMEMO support! Convo will now automatically generate OMEMO keys when you connect for the first time. Options to toggle OMEMO encryption, etc.

Libervia CLI tip 6:

Most commands have an `-O, --output` option to format the output. By default, the output is pretty formatted for humans, but you can output in JSON, XML, or other formats.

With `template` output you can use Jinja templates, either built-in ones (the ones used in the web frontend), or your own; useful to build static HTML pages/sites, or reformat the data the way you want.

Use `--help` to see available outputs
