Is there a good way to sync listening history between platforms? That seems to be a big reason why people have a hard time jumping around between platforms

It's like one of those parking lot emptying puzzles

None that I'm currently aware of

There is random.org which could work in the meantime

Some thoughts

  • since there can be federation issues, having a bot confirm entries would be helpful. For example, replying to every comment, sending a DM, or having a public list of usernames somewhere

starting from when the device first became available on the Google Store in the US

Why don't they just list the date (or even the 'available on store' date) for each device? It would be a lot simpler for people instead of having to hunt for the info themselves

This was actually an important point in the article, I should have included it in the post

Dror Baron, an NCSU professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering, wrote on X, "A professor I know died following various investigations. I know the people mentioned here, and call for a transparent and independent investigation."

So far, that investigation has not been forthcoming. University spokesperson Mick Kulikowski declined to comment to The Technician about Brain's death or the allegations. To date, the university has not issued a public statement about Brain's death.

Unrelated to your post, are there any topics you're interested in that we can help you find communities for?

Welcome!

How easy is it to access groceries or other services there? What is the process like (does someone come to the village, do people travel periodically, etc.)

They're also involved in Fediverse development, they made Mobilizon as an event management platform

There was a kurzgesagdt video related to this, discussing a few perspectives

Wow that's cool

Could it help with internal tasks, like self-hosted services or a business that transfers files around a lot?

In particular, which tools meet the requirements and which ones don't:

As part of our validation and testing of the OSAID, the volunteers checked whether the Definition could be used to evaluate if AI systems provided the freedoms expected.

  • The list of models that passed the Validation phase are: Pythia (Eleuther AI), OLMo (AI2), Amber and CrystalCoder (LLM360) and T5 (Google).
  • There are a couple of others that were analyzed and would probably pass if they changed their licenses/legal terms: BLOOM (BigScience), Starcoder2 (BigCode), Falcon (TII).
  • Those that have been analyzed and don't pass because they lack required components and/or their legal agreements are incompatible with the Open Source principles: Llama2 (Meta), Grok (X/Twitter), Phi-2 (Microsoft), Mixtral (Mistral).

These results should be seen as part of the definitional process, a learning moment, they're not certifications of any kind. OSI will continue to validate only legal documents, and will not validate or review individual AI systems, just as it does not validate or review software projects.

When I’m a small prey mammal and I’ve evolved to survive the barren rocky landscape by optimizing into a tan egg

Origin:


For posts about animals that loosely fit the description above. While the animal does not have to hit all the requirements, it should hit some of them:

  • Type: Prey
  • Class: Mammalia (mammal)
  • Habitat: Barren rocky landscape
  • Appearance: Similar to a tan egg

Please leave a comment in the pinned post (here) if you would like to be a moderator. I don’t expect it to be too much work, and it should be perfect for someone who hasn’t been a moderator before.

You can also help get the community off the ground by foraging for content and sharing cool things you find related to tan eggs (articles, photos, images etc.)

Privacy advocates got access to Locate X, a phone tracking tool which multiple U.S. agencies have bought access to, and showed me and other journalists exactly what it was capable of. Tracking a phone from one state to another to an abortion clinic. Multiple places of worship. A school. Following a likely juror to a residence. And all of this tracking is possible without a warrant, and instead just a few clicks of a mouse.

A satellite belonging to multinational service provider Intelsat mysteriously broke up in geostationary orbit over the weekend.

We are officially finished with The Book. Now onto something that matters.

Today is an exploratory session to explore the lemmy codebase, see how well it's documented for contribution, and make a targets for contribution.

If anyones following along this week is dedicated to familiarizing ourselves with the codebase. Pull it down, set up our dev environment, run the code. After that pick a directory and attempt to explain a few functions to a duck. If a duck is not present find a google search result for the term "duck" will suffice.

As always, a stream will be available at the following link of myself doing this for around 2 hours starting one hour after this post is made. https://www.twitch.tv/deerfromsmoke
