Okamžitá evoluce: AI algoritmus extrémně zrychlil vývoj designu robotů


Tvůrci populární Xenobotů z žabích buněk vylepšili algoritmus vybavený umělou inteligencí pro vývoj nových designů. Namísto měsíců na superpočítači navrhuje designy za pár sekund. Jeho nápady jsou neotřelé, skoro šílené, ale fungují. Umělá inteligence netrpí potřebou vyrábět kopie člověka či zvířat a její fantazie je nespoutaná.

Google has unveiled the stable version of Android 14, marking a significant update to the world’s most popular mobile operating system. The release is set to first roll out to Google’s Pixel phones, including the newly launched Pixel 8 series, followed by eligible devices from various Android OEMs. Here’s What’s New in Android 14 accessibleandroid.com/whats-ne… #Android #Google #Accessibility #Android14

ok, so this has been a fascinating read: blog.cr.yp.to/20231003-countco…

some background for non-cryptography people:

1. quantum computers that are estimated to become available in the near-ish future are expected to be better at forcefully decrypting the majority of encryption methods widely used today

2. NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) announced a competition to pick the best "post-quantum" ciphers that are resistant to these speedups

Me parece de puta madre. Iba a presentar la reclamación en materia de accesibilidad para el trámite de cita previa de los registros de la propiedad. Voy a la sede del Ministerio de Derechos Sociales y Agenda 2030 y elijo el trámite 201041, "Consultas y quejas por discriminación por discapacidad".

Intento acceder al trámite, y me encuentro con que la URL apunta a un dominio que no existe: oadis.vpsocial.gob.es/consulta…

Tenéis unos cojones que os arrastran. Estoy para empezar a quemar.

Acabo de utilizar el formulario rellenado, aunque tampoco sé si va bien rellenado porque la accesibilidad del PDF generado es asía así, y lo he remitido por el REG a la OADIS. Sospecho que me van a hacer cero caso pero estoy de mala leche y a burocracia no me gana ni dios.

¿Lo más gracioso del tema? El Colegio de Registradores tiene un distintivo de accesibilidad de Ilunion, y un premio del CERMI por ser tan buenos con nosotros.

There are various XMPP to fediverse bridges, I believe the one that aims at the best integration is @Goffi 's one: libervia.org/__b/doc/backend/c…
It's meant to be used with 'social' XMPP frontends like @movim and Libervia.

There are also a few projects that map 'social posts' to a 'chat room' or a 'chat bot' on the XMPP side, but I can't recall their names now.

¿Y a los que simplemente nos gusta? Una pena que determinadas personas tengan que hacer cosas como estas para representar su masculinidad.

Yo no me considero machista, pero el picante me vuelve loco. No, lo siguiente. Me encanta, disfruto mucho comiendo guindillas o salsas picantes, de bote, del caldo de las guindillas y las mezclas que hacemos... será que tengo mucha testosterona en sali_a? Ni idea pero lo disfruto. Tampoco me reto con la gente, pero sí que disfruto. No tengo necesidad de beber agua y/o leche constantemente.

I get asked a lot about where to go since Archivist Twitter doesn't really exist anymore. On Wednesday October 25 from 3:15 PM-4:00 PM Eastern, I’m hosting a free online event for learning how to use Mastodon to connect with all your archivist pals! Joining me will be the glammr.us mods @joshuatj @elenarchivist and @platypus. This event won’t be recorded, but I will send a handout to all who register. Register here and spread the word! docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

Hi everyone! I made a an audio game 3D platformer where you can edit the map just by editing the included CSV files. Would love to know what you all think of it as I'm thinking of having other projects have editable CSVs!

Delhi Police has raided the houses of 40+ journos and has arrested the founder of a left-leaning news website under terror charges. No FIR was made public, but ostensibly has to do with an unverified article in NYT. scroll.in/latest/1056959/delhi…

They didn’t follow existing rules for collection of evidence, weak as the protections are: scroll.in/article/1057017/news…

The next micro version of librsvg will support CSS var(--blah, #112233) wherever a color is allowed. This is the first step in supporting CSS custom properties for SVG Native, AKA OpenType SVG glyphs.

Programmers fallacies about postcodes:
- A postcode covers a small geographic area
- A postcode is good enough to locate an end user for generating location suggestions
- A postcode will be in a single timezone
- A postcode only has a single state
- A postcode has no exclaves/enclaves

I would like you to meet 0872. Australia's largest postcode (I think), covers 3 states, has two cut outs (Warbuton and Alice Springs), and even still some mail outside of this area is routed via 0872

Welcome Eduard Strehlau as #curl committer 1200 (!) github.com/curl/curl/pull/1202…
#curl

It seems that #Bluesky is getting some traction, so it's good to summarize the facts:
- it's centralized (99% of users on one instance),
- it has insufficient moderation,
- it's not easily publicly browsable,
- it has terrible terms of service (you grant them broad rights to all your content).

The only thing that makes it different from X in principle is that it's not run by a mad man (yet)... Ah, I forgot it's Jack Dorsey's project, nevermind.

The "New Outlook" demands that when adding your #Gmail account, you also give Microsoft a copy of all your Gmail email, contacts, and calendar data.

The "Learn More" link confirms:

"Syncing your account to the Microsoft Cloud means that a copy of your email, calendar, and contacts will be synchronized between your email provider and Microsoft data centers."

WOW.

Good time to switch to @thunderbird, folks!
