"I'm interested in all kinds of astronomy."

So, hard pill to swallow, but I think there are a class of AI enthusiasts who got that way because computing fundamentally failed them, for whom getting a computer to do anything _for them_ not being a whole-ass bullshit ordeal still deserve our empathy and solidarity. We, computer-people we, can’t escape responsibility for abandoning user empowerment in favour of corporate consolidation and vending machine interfaces decades ago, now that we’re reaping the whirlwind of mechanized capitalism.

The nearby kitchen had tripe stew with pork knuckle yesterday, but since it's totally incompatible with my training I took it away to eat it today.

Here's a pretty epic #mukbang video for you to have an idea:

In order not to leave it in the fridge I set up a calendar event saying "tripe stew is in the fridge!". For reasons this triggered like 5 times today already. If this is not temptation I don't know what is!

With Mastodon's new Collections feature (i.e. "starter packs"), I made a Cyber Threat Intelligence Collection:

Feel free to share with anyone getting started here on Mastodon, if they need some accounts to build out their feed. Note that Mastodon Collections currently have no "Follow All" button: this is by design.

@lurnoise Do you plan to make this available in print? I'd love to have a copy.

@wdormann @xabean @th The fun thing with consistent naming is that by making names consistent it renders them inconsistent with the previous, non-consistent name, that would've remained consistent if you didn't change anything :)

I really recommending reading this.

In summary, a company which does ID verification for in-person interactions (hotels, car rentals, ID verification for alcohol or marijuana, etc) has some how exposed over 153,000,000 drivers licenses for people in the United States and Canada.

It is a catastrophic data breach, probably one of the worse I've ever seen. If you're in the United States and have traveled, gotten a hotel, purchased marijuana or alcohol, there is a high probability you're in this.

Unlike other breaches, this includes a photo of the person (from the license), making verification you've identified the person significantly easier.

This poses a significant threat to celebrities (musicians, YouTubers, streamers, adult entertainers, actors, etc), politicians, lawyers, wealthy people (CEOs, investors, people of public interest), Law Enforcement Officers, etc

Krebs himself, and several other security researchers, have already confirmed they're in the data leak.

tl;dr gah damn dawg this company is going to be sued into oblivion

We've been thinking about a lot about the language design of expressing lifetime restrictions and dependencies for non-escapable types in Swift, and I put all that into a long and somewhat rambling design paper which folks might find interesting.

Related to the network incident, I rediscovered the masterpiece called xbill.

Why don't we have similar memes with Altman, Amodei & co.,?

To follow-up on my #DistributedComputing quest, these kinds of articles tickle my brain just the right way:

A Brief Tour of FLP Impossibility

On the other hand how the Hell do I turn off dark mode so I can actually read the keywords?!?! I'm not educated enough for this much computering!
