If you are using a so called smart connected TV and are concerned about your privacy, you should read the following scientific article: "Watching TV with the Second-Party: A First Look at Automatic Content Recognition Tracking in Smart TVs"
arxiv.org/pdf/2409.06203v1
In short, if your TV's settings are not correctly adjusted, it can periodically (in some cases, every 10 seconds) send a fingerprint of what is being displayed to a server to find out what you are watching.

"Incremental #HTTP Messages" proposal:
Upon receiving a header section that includes the Incremental header field, HTTP intermediaries SHOULD NOT buffer the entire message before forwarding it. Instead, intermediaries SHOULD transmit the header section downstream and continuously forward the bytes of the message body as they arrive.

This document specifies the "Incremental" HTTP header field, which instructs HTTP intermediaries to forward the HTTP message incrementally. Discussion Venues This note is to be removed before publishing as an RFC.IETF Datatracker

There’s a lot of complexity around what open means and how that intersects with AI, but from a reputational and consistency perspective I really can’t get over this 👇🏽 for the current draft of the OSI AI definition.
mastodon.social/@odoruhako/113…
Just read the OSI "Open Source AI Definition" (opensource.org/deepdive/drafts…)
It's basically pointless but the best part is:
Data information needs to include: "a detailed description of all data used for training, including (if used) of unshareable data"
My man. If the data to train the model is unshareable meaning I cannot get it to reproduce your binary/model, your system _is not open source_.
Endorse the Open Source AI Definition: have your organization appended to the press release announcing version 1.0 version 1.0-RC1 Preamble Why we need Open Source Artificial Intelligence (AI) Open Source…Open Source Initiative

SNCF, you’ve lost it. Really. There wasn’t just 1 but 3 guys warning about lost luggage
WHY?
SNCF is screaming it’s short of cash. Last time I needed to go to the ticket office here at Nord the wait was AN HOUR
And you’re using money on this shit?
It's amazing to see the groupthink among dipshits.
Look at this donkey's chorus of billionaire-worshippers filling my mentions with the word "cope" over and over again, evidently in the belief that it will pierce and wound me beyond recovery.

Space, the final frontier. Our solar system is in space, right? This BBC series gets into the nitty gritty of Earth, asteroids, moons and the other planets near us.

Cox simplifies complicated concepts while he tries to figure out how life began here while postulating about where else life could be found. BBC 2 on iPlayer.

Hey folks, finally got my resume into shape and figured I'd try to #getfedihired.
Looking for a tech job doing backend work--I can do full-stack but being #blind means I'm going to struggle more with UI. I'm proficient in #Rust, #Elixir, #Golang, #TypeScript, and a handful of other languages. I have Android experience as well, and have done fun accessibility-related projects like writing an Android screen reader from scratch or adding screen-reader-like functionality to multiple game engines.
I don't mind big tech too much but am looking to switch away to something more co-op/non-profit if possible. It'd be nice to use my tech skills for good, not just for some investor's benefit. Good work/life balance is also a must--I don't live to work, I work to live.
Here's my resume if any of this sounds intriguing. Thanks for reading and/or boosting!

For a post-canon story it's pretty good, @FreakyFwoof
Meet Gawain Robards, Auror - This is the story of a man who had lost hope in the world, in humanity, in himself. And of his unexpected means of finding it again with some subtle help from the Boy Who Lived. But who is helping whom? A new POV of the Ministry reformation after the Battle of Hogwarts, tracking Harry's rather unusual assimilation into the Auror ranks. *Post-war canon.

The long-term goal is to create a usable #lesson where pupils go out and map using a data collection app. If you have any experience with this, would you be so kind to spend 10 minutes of your time to fill out the survey?

in reply to Santa b-Aby • • •It is sad that the comment section was exactly what I expected, even here on Mastodon.
Woman posts about how men often react negatively to things women say for no apparent reason.
The exact kind of man she's talking about shows up and does exactly that. Exclaims, I would never do that, while doing that.
