based on how often the naughty teens of major cities throw the rentable scooters directly into the river i've formed a theory that the many iron age swords and cauldrons found in lakes around europe that we've previously assumed were ceremonial and sacrificial in nature were in fact thrown by teens

AI has its uses.
In a pilot study, A.I.was able to accurately predict the type of coda, the whale’s vocal clan and the individual whale with over 90% accuracy.
... it might be possible to use A.I. to find patterns within the vocal data and eventually translate what whales were saying to one another.

Version 1 of the OWASP AI testing guide just got published.

I promise you, from my own experience, this will save you a lot of heartache.

#DOGE is no more. But where is all the data it has collected over the months from all the US gov't agencies?
Bye bye, “DOGE”.

It no longer exists as a “centralized entity”, according to the Office of Personnel Management.

Twitter pays people based on engagement (views, retweets, comments, etc). It appears that many MAGA accounts are based abroad and they use AI technology to generate low-effort rage bait.

My guess is that this will get worse as AI tech improves. For instance, fake videos of minorities doing crime.

To be fair, Neal wrote "The Baroque Cycle" longhand after a computer backup disaster ate the first five hundred pages or so.

Then he transcribed it himself in EMACS and formatted it for submission using a homebrew set of Elisp macros he wrote—

Yeah nope, that's just deranged.

Ja kuka väittää ettei humanistisia aineita kannata opiskella? Pitää palkata kirjallisuuden opiskelijoita AI-hakkereiksi.
Looks like LLMs are *very* vulnerable to attack via poetic allusion: "curated poetic prompts yielded high attack-success rates (ASR), with some providers exceeding 90% ..."

So that means that any attempt to neuter a hippo is:

A) Exploratory Surgery
B) Done under "best guess" conditions
C) Where the drugs are *going* to wear off
D) On an animal that weighs more than a Ford F150
E) All of which is muscle
F) On testicles that are hiding from you
G) And it is mad about it

Turns out you can communicate across containers via 63-bits of available space in a shared lock you acquire on /proc/self/ns/time that all processes have access to.

No networking required. The post has a demo of a chat app communicating across unprivileged containers.

HOLY SHIT. They found the genes for fibromyalgia - and it's *not* autoimmune, it's the central nervous system. It's very cool to see some progress made on the thing that's ruined my life since late teenage years!
Medical Republic: 'Fibromyalgia finally gets a genetic fingerprint'

'Additionally, certain risk loci overlapped with long covid (BPTF) and ME/CFS (OLFM4, RABGAP1L/GPR52), two poorly characterised disorders, albeit with different lead variants.'
