Kinda funny that they’re targeting Microsoft and yet using GitHub to share the PoCs.

This is the part I don’t get either. Although - maybe it is because it protects other platforms from legal action by microSLOP? Also, it adds to the Streisand effect should microSLOP remove the proof of concept from its own platform.

Muhaha. Those morons were never software engineers in the first place. A software engineer would neither benefit from LLM any more than from a deterministic assistant (tenplates), nor would they be stupid enough to label a stochastic slop generator as “AI”.

(Yes, this is a “no true scotsman” kind of argument, yet I stand by it. People who call this bullshit AI, as well as people who claim it is better than coding stuff yourself, should not be let anywhere near any kind of software more relevant than a mobile game, and probably not even those)

Yeah, I was hesitant to encrypt backups for a long time, and now I have the problem that you can’t store backups of encryption headers on the encrypted device(s)

My main concern is that all my data is online, potentially forever (I have to assume it will be) and the only thing needed to access it is a comparatively tiny encryption key (we’re talking Megabytes) that I have to keep safe forever (or until I delete it). If I ever mess up, or a computer with the encryption key gets compromised, then there goes my data into the public domain…

Storing important data online on someone else’s computer is beyond fucked up levels of stupid: You only need to lose your encryption key once in your lifetime afterwards, and you can consider your backup public for all the world to see. And a single encryption weakness / backdoor will expose data just the same. Not to mention using third party sw to “do the backup” for you and relying on them to encrypt it so that they themselves can’t read it, is very naive.

Once your data left your home network, it is no longer yours to control.

Been there, done that.

I suppose I was optimistic enough 10 years ago to set my eyes on what you call “extras” and now I am about as disappointed again as I was when the Rwandan genocide was allowed to happen.

We don’t disagree on those points, technically, even genocide is an “internal affair” if done within the own borders - just that if the UN were to function properly, and less toothless, we’d have a UN blue helmet force that could act upon such major events. Problem is when to declare an uprising against a government (and violent crackdown on protestors) as something requiring UN intervention, especially with all members of the UN having their own agenda :(

Lolz @ Iran now being in a position to make demands. Never has it been more obvious that Magastan is morally bankrupt and led by a kabal of child raping incompetent shitpiles.

One could be amused if this wasn’t so fucking serious and if the Iranian regime wasn’t also a bunch of mass murdering fuckheads.

Well - I guess I’ll just skip the occasional visit to their site then. Had no account anymore anyways. gfys spez

That does not contradict anything I said.

The thing is providers of care like to make a profit though, and profit = money = influence on healthcare policies. Healthcare policies are not made solely with cost efficiency in mind, but rather to redistribute wealth from insurance payers to those who provide services. If that means a couple ten thousand of us peasants die a preventable death, then that’s a sacrifice they are willing to make.

Yes, but all of them are worsening in the interests of profit, in case you weren’t following the news. Germany is just scrapping skin cancer prevention, thanks to our corrupt fucks in government.

Did it get its knickers in a twist?

In my first sentence, I was referring to the combination of adjectives in the question by previous commentor. No one in today’s health care systems is gonna pay preemptive screenings for saving peasant lives like yours or mine.

Did I though? Are they using a model with any kind of abstraction layer that actually understands relationships between objects?

Sometimes based, sometimes a moron.

In other words: not useful at all. (Didn’t read the article because it already misuses the AI acronym in the title, indicating it was written by some idiot with nothing to say)

Neither country has workers rights on par with Europe for example.

For now. Now watch us fuck it all up.
