So what the fuck happened to #Sentinel, or why is US MIL command and control run by random Signal groups? Was it scraped by #DOGE? ;-)

@brink @briankrebs right, certified ETHICAL hacker ;-)

I've noticed something that I think is worth pointing out: pretty much ALL of the pushback I have gotten on LinkedIn over the past few months over stories critical of this administration has come from men in IT. Many of whom no doubt idolize Musk, who in their minds can walk on water.

Conversely, the response almost universally I've seen from female non/male people in IT and security professionals on LinkedIn has been a great deal more appropriate, i.e. horror, disgust and revulsion for the way this administration is treating federal employees, veterans, the courts, judges, lawyers, journalists, and important, long-standing U.S. policy interests.

I guess what I'm saying is nobody should expect the men in IT to lead the resistance. So many of them are like this guy: angry, aggressive, and really excited about the good old US of A going back to the 80s. Like the 1880s.

Trump has already been enjoined by courts in his second term more than Biden was in his entire term. It’s not the courts. It’s the illegality.

not travelling to US until Im sure that my laptop won’t be assraped by a compromised government led behind the curtains by a south african oligarch 🧙‍♂️

@cstross I'm sure you're aware of the current issue of Private Eye.

@masek i was not sure if this is corruption or infiltration 🥲

The architecture of American power, built painstakingly over seventy-five years, has been abandoned. This will be remembered as the moment when America's Pacific century came to an end.

what could possibly go wrong?

Tekoälykäännökset heikentävät laatua, polkevat kirjailijan oikeuksia ja näyttävät keskisormea kääntäjien ammattitaidolle, mutta se ei tunnu suoratoistopalveluita kiinnostavan.

Pääasia, että heille tulee rahaa.

Shit is happening because we allow it to happen. Let's just say no and call it a day. It's not like the first time when e.g., Linux community has said no despite big money put by some random corporation. We can do it. If some fortune corp got few months ban for all of their kernel staff, that message would go through.

I don't see anything related in https://opensource.org/ai/open-source-ai-definition. This document feels like a testament for bullshit, not addressing the actual problems.

E.g. conditions could be exactly "not respecting robots.txt", not respecting copyleft license and things like that. Why would we not ban a company using AI for some period of time, if those conditions are not respected?

IMHO AI crawlers should result company bans to open source projects. We need Code of Conduct for AI.
