While Trump is building his vanity ballroom, China is building the robot armies that will show up on future battlefields.
Priorities, ladies and gentlement. Priorities.
@randahl These things will be blown up by FPV drones within minutes after being deployed on future battlefields.
@belzebu @fediverso @amministratore No no guarda, di fronte a novax, negazionisti dell'HIV, negazionisti dell'olocausto, negazionisti del cambiamento climatico, vannacciani stile "il femminismo non esiste", eugenisti e gente che usa la scienza per giustificare i suprematisti bianchi... va usata non la falce ma la motosega. Quella più potente in circolazione.
E non perché "la pensano in modo diverso" ma perché le loro esternazioni sono entrate in politica e danneggiano la società.
Puoi non essere d'accordo coi matrimoni gay? Non sposare un uomo. Sei contro l'aborto? Non abortire. Sei un terrapiattista, novax e affini? Ti pigli un server in affitto o te lo costruisci, ti crei una tua istanza personale, te la paghi e ululi quanto vuoi.
E giusto per non farmi fraintendere: Konrad Lorenz, uno degli etologi storici, forse uno dei primi a spiegare il comportamento animale, in modo impeccabile, comprensibile anche ai ragazzini: lui era uno di quelli che auspicavano l'eliminazione dei disabili perché rovinavano, indebolivano, le generazioni successive (sto semplificando). Questo rende i libri di Lorenz da cancellare? NO. Si capisce solo quanto a livello etologico fosse ottimo, ma non sapesse relazionarsi con gli umani. Punto.
Non sono per la "censura" intesa come silenziamento sistematico. Vorrei però che ognuno avesse il proprio posto. Perché se iniziamo a dire che regolamentare i contenuti rischia di contrastare il principio del fediverso, allora anche vietare di girare nudi in chiesa contraddice la storia (Gesù non mi risultava vestito, in croce). O comunque vietare di bestemmiare in chiesa contraddice l'accoglienza della chiesa verso tutti. Porc...
io adoro questa donna atomica !
@elettrona
@belzebu ma come si fa a dare aria ai terrapiattisti?
ma pure a casa mia se viene a trovarmi qualcuno che inizia a negare olocausto, vaccini, emergenza climatica e accessori lo metto alla porta
grazie 🤍

Am Kottbusser Tor in Berlin werden seit heute rund 30 Überwachungskameras installiert und an ein KI-System angeschlossen, das prüft, wer artig ist und wer nicht. Weitere Areale sollen folgen. Menschen, die sich regelmäßig am Kotti aufhalten, sind von dem Überwachungsprojekt überrascht.
Partner: It’s funny how all of your parasocial relationships are with dogs.
Me: Not true! Vidarr is a cat!

@rupdecat @lavaeolus @histodons It was, wasn't it. I changed my mind: it's the year of the first performance of the Radetzky march!!
Is Scopus really a curated bibliographic database?
A new Scientometrics study finds 2.7M records without author information, 500K+ records with unknown source titles, inconsistent document types, and even London recorded as an affiliation.

A useful reminder: better research assessment starts with understanding and checking the data - not just pressing a button.

@serhii Paul Marks is a technology journalist who lives in London. He does not have a university affiliation. What’s the issue here? Not all authors have institutional affiliations. https://authory.com/PaulMarks
@ripienaar I think @Jeremiah has an educated opinion on this. He’ll maybe reply :)
@relistan @ripienaar Brave makes meaningful efforts to protect user privacy compared to Chrome’s defaults. However, being based on Chromium means it affirms Chromium’s market dominance in web standards discussions. Peter Thiel's venture capital firm, Founders Fund, was an early investor and holds a minority share. I use Brave when I need to test Chromium. My general recommendations are Firefox and Zen. I financially support the early stage efforts of Verso & Ladybird.
Linux hackers are safe, Windows and macOS hackers will steal your data... and you'd better call police if you meet a GPU hacker?!?!

If any of these are correct I deserve a nobel prize of some kind
🎓 A formal degree and algorithmic problem-solving is the answer. Always has been.
｢ If I had to categorize the “no need for education, no need for algorithms” crowd of our field, they’d fall into three categories: They either focus on the wrong things when developing software, they have a very shallow knowledge and lack of regard of how difficult good engineering is, or they’re utterly clueless and rely on good soft skills and politics ｣

If you want to pick an example and follow what I mean, check out the respectable middle line future predictions for the population of Nigeria according to organizations such as the United Nations and the WHO.
Then check back in 10 years and 20 years and compare against that line.
Like, there's a legit prediction that it'll be the second most populous country in the world...
News in the Netherlands has been full of articles about the low water level in the Rhine. Looking out of the tram window as we crossed the Rhine at Basel this morning, the water level isn't looking very low here. I'm guessing there's some sort of weir that is keeping the level up here. Plus a shit ton of abstraction down river.
@quixoticgeek The Rhine navigable through Basel so there can't be a weir, but there is a big reservoir up stream, called Bodensee 😉
Although water levels are lower there too, and there are reports of problems at the harbours on Bodensee at present too...
