@jojalonen Kuulostaa työllistymistä edistävältä terveille ihmisille, joiden ei tarvitse huolehtia perheestä. Ainut mikä puuttui oli vaikuttavuuden arviointi satunnaistetulla otoksella. Pikku uutinen, työelämässäkin pitää sietää ihmisten ja organisaatioiden epätäydellisyyttä.
@idyllicmusing Interesting. In lesser storms here specialists handle it: local farmers cut trees with chainsaws, electricians know how to restore power, construction workers have heavy machinery for restoring flood damaged roads. Now they got swamped and need unskilled assistance from Guard.
@hlslyuri@CathPoaster Staying fit - check. Aphex Twins - almost, Venetian Snares. Marginal Revolution - check. Had failed startup ambitions. Studied all linear algebra in uni but also forgot all of it long ago. Learned enough Chinese to read Three Body Problem. Scheduling - check.
@derkderk3rson@ChefGruel Spreading animal sludge on farms is normal but there is supposed to be a long period between mixing sludge to soil during tilling on one hand, and harvesting on the other hand to ensure that there is no infection risk.
Monitoring all communications, with unavoidable misunderstandings and consequences from misunderstandings, coming to your phone if EU passes Chat Control.
Funny Story for a Tuesday Evening:
At JSOC, we had two types of phones. One was a regular phone, and one was a secure phone, called a STU-III. It used a key to go in secure mode. We also had an intelligence unit that monitored all our open communications. They would make a report and try to figure out what we were doing.
One day, I was told to report to the Director of JSOC, J-3 COL Bargewell. He told me that it was reported that I had committed a security violation. The report said that it had a recording of me discussing a classified project over an unsecured phone.
I was puzzled, as I didn’t recall doing anything remotely close to committing a security violation. He said that, apparently, I was discussing a classified project called “Flashlight."
I had to think about it, but then I remembered. I had been discussing flashlights to someone over the phone. You know. The flashlights that you need at night, the kind you can buy just about anywhere. Somehow, someone listening in had reinterpreted the word “flashlight,” and had become convinced that I was using a codename for some Special Assessment Project (SAP).
To read their reports on what they thought we were doing was hilarious at times.
@johncollins60@ID_AA_Carmack Agents will develop a language that's more abstract than Haskell and too difficult for (at least most) developers to learn, but offers better guarantees of correctness and more concise representation. Then agents will develop training corpus of examples for it as in alphazero.
Tässä olisi EU:lle tai Ranskalle tarvetta ottaa vastuuta EU:n lähialueiden sotilaallisten ongelmien ratkaisemisesta paremmin, kuin paljon parjattu USA.
Trilateral US-Lebanon-Israel deal says Beirut requests international support “to achieve the complete and verified disarmament of all non-state armed groups, and ensure that such groups will have no military or security role and no armed capabilities anywhere in Lebanon”
