@brabitom Takové pravidlo nikdy neexistovalo. Správně to pravidlo zní "Když to přestane vynášet, nezbývá než přestat."


Meet Chinese sports shooter Zhāng Shān, the reason skeet shooting is sex segregated. At the 1992 Barcelona Olympics, she dominated the then integrated skeet shooting competition winning Gold, defeating the men. The International Shooting Union banned women for the 1996 Olympics.


Il y a 84 ans, le 25 juin 1940, s'installait en France un régime autoritaire collaborationniste de Vichy dirigé par le maréchal Pétain.

Ceux qui ont vécu sous un gouvernement français d'extrême droite ont aujourd'hui 90 ans ou plus. Mon père en est un.

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.

Major record companies sue AI music generators Suno, Udio for ‘mass infringement’ of copyright musicbusinessworldwide.com/maj…
in reply to Tamas G

Yeah, I was wondering when this was going to happen. Guess I'll go download all my songs now. Lol!
in reply to Martin from Toronto

@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.)

Well, I did something.

Written some ramblings about #scala and the syntax/way to write typeclasses.

I should turn this into some blog post or put it into a personal wiki or wtv. But ain't nobody got time for that.

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

So... I made noise on their official discussion spot. That means I'm locked in. uh oh :P discourse.jupyter.org/t/stream… :P #dataScience #AI #MachineLearning #jupyter #notebooks #Python #programming #selfPromo #twitch
in reply to Florian

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.
in reply to Florian

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.
in reply to Florian

Ok, in an hour, i'll be starting this up. High temps, high effort and high complexity, what oculd go wrong? Let's dig into the #screenReader #accessibility of #jupyter notebooks, a tool prevalent in #dataScience, #python #programming in general, #machineLearning and therefore also practically all things #ai etc.
See you then over at twitch.tv/ic_null and youtube.com/@blindlycoding #goingLive #twitch #youtube #selfPromo
in reply to Florian

ok ok ok, we covered #jupyter last week. Our #datascience adventure continues with checking into the #accessibility of #google CoLab. Is it better than jupyter? Worse? Are there tools to make it better? How's a #blind person even do #ML and datascience anyway? Come see in just over 2 hours at twitch.tv/ic_null and youtube.com/@blindlycoding #python #programming #coLab #selfPromo
in reply to Florian

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

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.
in reply to Lorenz

GIR for it would be nice, perhaps it can be used for Blueprint

cc @flyingpimonster

in reply to Sonny

@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.

the GIR parser has a GIR API :)

in reply to Sonny

@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.

The state of Unix/Linux accessibility is even worse then I feared 🙈 . Fedora has been shipping with a broken screen reader for NINE YEARS?

Orca doesn't work on any distribution that ships with Wayland by default? 😭 (thanks @aral for bringing it my attention)

Do all the distributions and such know that next year they should be accessible?

I can't code and I am not familiar with testing desktop apps, but I would really like to know how I can help to fix this.

(allthough it shows a bigger problem in open source and it's culture)

I am really dissappointed.

if you work in software or on a operating system: if you don't care or don't do anything on accessiiblity, you are ableist. Do better, open source.

@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.

in reply to modulux

@modulux I'd added a small spoonful of pink salt to this, too, to enhance the flavour and balance the sweetness. It's standard in other curd lassi I make, but I found it worked well here, too.

Mmmmmmmm. I do find mango lassi can be a little overly sweet and watery sometimes but yours sounds lovely.


Woman allegedly tried to drown Palestinian-American girl, aged 3

The US’s largest Muslim civil liberties and advocacy organization is calling for #hate #crime charges to be filed against a Texas woman accused of 🔸trying to drown a three-year-old Palestinian-American girl 🔸while saying that the child’s mother wasn’t really American.

For now, the suspect in the case has been booked on counts of attempted murder and injury to a child.

The case dates back to 19 May, when police in Euless, Texas,
were called to an apartment complex swimming pool where there had been reports of a disturbance between two women, according to the local NBC affiliate.

Witnesses told police “a woman who was very intoxicated had tried to drown a child and argued with the child’s mother”, said a police news release reviewed by CNN.

The child’s mother told police that the alleged attacker
– since identified as 42-year-old Elizabeth Wolf
– questioned where she was from and whether the two children playing in the pool were hers, police said.
Wolf also made statements about the mother not being an American, police added.
In a news release on Friday, the Council on American-Islamic Relations (Cair) said the child’s mother wore a hijab and modest swimwear,
and she was watching her children play in the shallow end of the pool when Wolf approached her.

“The alleged attacker reportedly approached the mother with racist interrogations then
jumped into the swimming pool and
grabbed the children to the deep end of the pool to allegedly drown them,”
the statement said, adding that the mother’s six-year-old son was able to escape but her three-year-old daughter was unable to do the same.

“The alleged attacker snatched off the mother’s head scarf and used it to beat the mother as well as kicking her
to keep her away while forcing her daughter’s head underwater,”

Vor 2 Wochen habe ich mir neue Kopfhörer gekauft. Modulare Over-Ear Kopfhörer von Repeat. Das Versprechen dieses jungen niederländischen Start-Up ist, dass man hier seine letzten Kopfhörer erwirbt. Durch die modulare Bauweise lassen sich einzelne kaputte Module einfach austauschen, ohne gleich die ganzen Kopfhörer wechseln zu müssen. Für einen Aufpreis kann man zu den Kopfhörern die lebenslange Reperatur dazu kaufen. So geht nachhaltiges Design.
Das wichtigste aber, der Klang begeistert.
