Offenbar haben die News-Simulatoren von Nius das Kanzleramt weich geklagt. Dabei wäre es so einfach, eine berechtigte Hürde aufzustellen, die sie nicht nehmen können:
Ist ein Medium Mitglied im Presserat - und damit dem Pressecodex für professionellen Journalismus unterworfen?
Für die „Lage der Nation“ ist das selbstverständlich. @lagedernation. https://mastodon.social/@rpolenz/117494818371771698
Foly huck. A small story about LLMs.
For historical reasons, I have a spare cassette for road bikes and it is not compatible with any of my own bikes so I want to sell it. Decided it would be helpful for buyers to include the teeth count of the smallest and largest sprocket in the ad, and was in a lazy Saturday afternoon mood so took a picture, gave that to #chatgpt and asked it to do the counting for me. Answer: 36 teeth.
That sprocket size doesn't exist in the Shimano universe.
So I tried to verify its count by asking it to add an increasing number next to every tooth. It complied, and the numbers ran from 1-36. That pictures is included below. You can stop reading now, look at the picture and count along.
If your ADD is not too bad, you'll notice it skipped 18, so we have 35 teeth. Not 36.
However that also doesn't exist in the Shimano universe.
Being as confused as the average republican, I demanded a #recount! It told me 36 again.
Sigh. Decided to do a manual recount while holding the sprocket in my hand. 28. That is a valid size.
Then I looked at the photo with counts again. Turns out the clanker took my original photo as inspiration, and fabricated a photo of a sprocket with 35 teeth. I am not sure what triggered it to do that and I do not want to know.
Your average #LLM is still as bad at counting as they were a year ago. Maybe worse.
Also, do not invest in that stuff ok?

and here’s the thing right
for a period of time, apple had a group of customers who liked their products because they were a good value
capacitive touch hooked up to a good UI was worth the money
macOS was a pretty good unix hooked up to a good UI
macbook pros had their issues some years, but the power management was excellent
people have been calling apple a brand that people only bought to be fashionable for years, and it wasn’t accurate back then
unfortunately, I think apple agreed with those people. cause none of the above applies to apple devices anymore. there’s nothing particularly special about any ios device, and the UI is jankier than ever. they fired all their old unix pros. your MacBook Pro would have great battery life… if the OS and the AI shit you can’t turn off without third-party patches (for now) weren’t sucking cycles they don’t need to
apple always considered itself a fashion brand, and the people making it anything else have all been fired
Liebe Neurodivergenz-Bubble,
zum Thema "Gestaltung von Internetseiten für neurodivergente Menschen" heißt es (auf englisch-sprachigen Seiten) häufig, dass z.B. bei den Farben "erd- und naturfarbene Farbschemata bevorzugt" würden.
Stimmt ihr dieser Aussage für euer persönliches Empfinden zu?
Habt ihr Beispiele solcher Internetseiten, deren Gestaltung euch ganz besonders gut gefällt?

There are people replying saying it’s still a real vulnerability.
Yes, it probably is. But it’s not the instant easy server pwn we were told it would be. If it were, we would be seeing botnets built of servers taken over by this exploit, WordPress sites vandalized by script kiddies etc. within hours of the leak.
That’s what happened with Shellshock, which was an insta-pwn for a vulnerable configuration of e.g. Apache.
That we’re not seeing anything like that here should tell you something.
A sufficiently dedicated attacker could probably use these vulnerabilities to probe at a server for a few hours or days and eventually have a remote shell. But even if someone has done that, we haven’t seen any confirmed attacks that are suspected to have used this vulnerability.
Holy fuck, Shen. Those last four panels...

Are you a trans person who struggles to check your chest for breast cancer due to dysphoria? Or do you have strategies to help manage that dysphoria so you can check your chest?
If this is you and you’re up for talking to me for an article, please reply below or email me at quinn@quinnrhodes.co.uk!
Wir brauchen einen extra kurzen Profilzylinder. Auf jeden Fall Doppelzylinder, symmetrisch.
Wir haben schon mehrere Angebote für 21/21 und 20/20 gefunden. Besser wäre aber 19/19 oder genaugenommen 18,7/18,7.
Ich weiß, kürzere Schlösser haben weniger Pins und sind daher leichter zu picken. Sicherheit ist hier aber praktisch egal.
Kennt da jemand eine Lösung? Vielleicht etwas aus einem anderen Land, wo das gleiche Profil benutzt wird, aber dünnere Türen üblich sind?
Hello #immich #homelab friends.
Looks like a recent update to the onnx runtime adds telemetry back to Microsoft. Because *of course* we cannot have nice things.
As far as I can tell, none of this has to do with Immich per se, it's a change to an upstream runtime. To the best of my knowledge, none of the telemetry goes to immich.
You can stop the telemetry with:
- Adding `ORT_DISABLE_TELEMETRY=1` to your `.env` file, and/or
- Using pi-hole or another ad-blocking DNS server to intercept and block the requests.
PLEASE DO NOT PILE ON THE IMMICH TEAM. This looks like a tiresome update to a dependency and not any intentional action on Immich's behalf.
More details can be found in the github issue here:

Hey, psst - are you a Boston area game developer who actively dislikes ai/LLMs... and feels out of place in the local scene?
Reach out, I'm putting something together.
(Do you need to be Boston area? No! But I'm just trying to make baby steps in reaching out...)
@ewyn @katzenjens Hier mein Beschwerdeversuch bei Amazon darüber, dass die Lieferanten nicht mehr klingeln…. 🤦♂️
Not on the news: Bernie Sanders marched to the polls with 600 students in Houston. Students are heavily voter suppressed in Texas, as is Harris County (Houston) in general.
Now is the time to leave it all on the field. Not only for the results but because it beats the hell out of sitting around nail biting.
Wenn ich die Pläne von Autobahn GmbH und @bmv richtig lese, wird die neue Nordbrücke in #Bonn bis zu 9 Autospuren haben (Standstreifen und Abbiegespuren mitgerechnet). Eine Dinosaurierplanung.
Wie breit werden die neuen Fuß- und Radwege werden? 2,23 m? Das ist schon heute unter dem Standard. Aber davon geht noch der Platz für das Geländer zu den Autospuren und für den Lärmschutz ab …
Das ist nicht nur verkehrspolitisch inakzeptabel, sondern eine Gefährdung der Verkehrssicherheit
Since #PHP is at the top of peoples minds, a short diversion.
In the Before Times of 20+ years ago, I worked for a smallish tech company that did some of everything. One of the #consulting jobs we took on was to #audit a #codebase for a company that was buying another company - the application was the acquiree's crown jewels, and the purchaser wanted a good solid analysis of it.
It was in PHP. I was not looking forward to it. As a betting person you are unlikely to go wrong with "very #niche market-specific software application developed in-house by small company working in that space is likely to be pretty terribly #designed and #implemented", and most of the PHP I had looked at by that point was, well, bad.
And it absolutely was not. It was in the then-new PHP v.5. And it was cleanly designed, nicely modular, very #readable #code and well documented, good #development practices. Sure, there were some things in it that could be improved, mostly more efficient algorithms / data structures IIRC, but all software can be improved *somewhere*. The final report was fairly glowing about it.
Anyone who tells you all code written in $LANGUAGE is awful, or all #programmers who use it are idiots, is showing you their whole ass. Languages are #tools. Some are easier to use for certain purposes than others, but they're all useful for something. Don't be closed-minded.

Ja, so etwas passiert mir nahezu täglich.
Ich wünschte, ich könnte sagen, dass mir so eine Shyce weder Zeit noch Geld raubt.
Auf einer Skala von 1 bis 100: Wie traurig, unsicher und ungeliebt ist der Mann hinter diesem Account?
Ich liebe alles daran, weil es ihn so dermaßen entlarvt.
XOXO.
Dennoch: Alle sind willkommen, Jene, die etwas Geld haben, dürfen mich gerne gegen Clowns (pun intended) unterstützen.

There are few things that so perfectly represent the capitalist mode of production as generative AI. It’s theft. It’s plagiarism. It’s an attack on labor. It destroys the environment. It produces junk. It’s harmful to consume. It concentrates wealth. In short, it’s a catastrophe for society.
