Side point on #chatcontrol: When I worked on the law in the European Parliament, in the face of questionably legal, and highly problematic behavior by DG HOME, I prepared a whitepaper on why it was such a terrible Idea.

As it is in the public interest, I have decided to make that white paper […]

@[email protected] I don't get they went with Hermioni Granger for "small on the outside, but huge on the inside"

1. I don't think this can be linked to Hermioni at all, in the HP universe
2. Dr. Who????

@villavelius als we dan in het restaurant zijn, dan vragen we:

"is deze hamburger met echte dode dieren?"

#microsoft bug of the day, switching from plain text to HTML email editing in the browser adds HTML tags in plain sight in the HTML editor.

and even if we decide to go to the American cloud with our lives, could we then at least pick the best product and not the one of which we know the name for document editing the best? because there are far better American cloud editing options than Microsoft.

I've seen a couple of news stories recently that tell me how completely screwed that major consulting firms are. The first was Accenture laying off 1% of their workforce to demonstrate that they're all in on GenAI. Really? Accenture wants to advertise that they can be replaced by an $20/month LLM?

Accenture plans on 'exiting' staff who can't be reskilled on AI amid restructuring strategy

Accenture CEO Julie Sweet said as advanced AI becomes core to the company's strategy, employees are expected to "retrain and retool" at scale.

Is there a relationship between the metadata publishers submit to Crossref and the submission systems they use? 🤔

In this new preprint with @HLdeJonge, we analyzed 153 publishers and 4 major systems to find out.
