Most of us have no idea what will happen when we die. But some people were actually declared dead and came back with remarkable stories—like meeting dead relatives. Science is now beginning to tell us what happens in near-death experiences.
My peeps, we are hiring. I've been at Coda for nearly a year and genuinely look forward to work every day. I get to work on the cool projects I want, with smart, kind people who enjoy what they're doing. And now we can use more help in our security department.
We're looking for a 100% remote (in the US, due to compliance obligations) security engineer. Downside: you have to see me all the time. More info at job-boards.greenhouse.io/coda/…
If this looks interesting, please hit me up for the details.

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.

2/2 How it's going: "V orgánoch činných v trestnom konaní pôsobí sekta. Obvinenému Danielovi Bombicovi, ktorý vyzýval na ozbrojený odpor a šíri teóriu o výmene bieleho obyvateľstva, zastávanú teroristami, ponúka pomocnú ruku minister obrany a podpredseda Smeru ho označuje za hrdinu. V Petržalke sa rozmohli vlámania, v obchodoch krádeže. Keď pôjdete na diskotéku, môže sa vám stať, že strávite dve hodiny s rukami nad hlavou."
It took a while but the developer has finally added the required accessibility enhancements so I can finally share a fun little game called Language Guessr. You're given a short audio recording and it is your task to guess what language it is in. Should you give the wrong answer, you have the option to hear a sample recording in the language you indicated so that you can learn the difference. A great little toy for language geeks. There's an edit combobox at the top to search for the country so that you don't have to navigate the map view which doesn't work with screen readers. Happy playing! languageguessr.io/ #Accessibility #A11y #Blind #Languages
@modulux @KaraLG84 Hmm, there used to be a bug where you couldn't trigger the audio to play but that has been fixed specifically over the weekend. Might it be that the old version is loading for you somehow? Maybe ctrl + F5? Different browser?
@emma_cogdev @KaraLG84 @modulux Here it works on Windows and Firefox. The only issue I've got is the keyboard not coming up when I try to activate the country search in Safari on iOS. Will report that.
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…

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.
As a non native speaker I'm not ashamed to ask - I mean I don't get the "cope" thing. Is that some special language connotation or flavour I'm not familiar with?
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. Maybe it doesn't sound like edge of your seat stuff but Brian Cox does his best to keep your attention. 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.
Just wish he didn't have a voice like one of my former bosses. I can't listen to him. I literally pause the radio when the trailers come on. Lovely chap I'm sure!

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!
I don't appear to be able to edit this, so in case the Markdown-formatted link in my original didn't work for you, here's a direct link? thewordnerd.info/resume.pdf

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.

not quite with the impact of last weeks, but a roundly satisfying sort of thing. Slow start, but the action picks up. Written over 14 years, so there's hope for all those slow updaters

in reply to Aby--not fast, just furious • • •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.
