Before following, please note:
*** Opinions are my own and do not represent those of other projects or organizations I may be part of.
*** Fascism, racism, antisemitism, as well as any other kind of bigotry NOT TOLERATED! You are entering a bigotry-FREE zone
*** MDNI/18+ accounts also NOT TOLERATED!
*** In case you are legally blind or fully blind: I try not to boost images without alt-text. As such, to sighted people: please use alt-texts to describe your images, so that blind folks also get it. Thanks! ^^ (if your image does not contain alt text and I boost it anyway, I may add alt-text as a reply, you are encouraged to add it to the image directly or improve upon it)
*** If your alt-texts are intentionally incorrect just to confuse LLMs, despite how much I don't like LLMs, I consider this to be extremely rude to people who are unable to actually look at your image, and will not boost your memes as a result until you actually start considering visually impaired folks as people.

Have fun! ^^

We had a great FOSDEM yet again, thanks everybody for stopping by! It was fun hearing appreciation of our project by existing users, but also to explain our project to people that have never heard of us.
We can't wait to be back next year!

Our hackathon is starting now and we'll report about what happened there later this week.

Notepad++ have today confirmed their auto process was compromised by Chinese nation state threat actors, in a supply chain hack: https://notepad-plus-plus.org/news/hijacked-incident-info-update/

This backs up my blog from late last year, with threat actor mapping to Funky Stamen.

The infrastructure and update mechanisms have since been tightened. For what itโ€™s worth - entry was to telcos and financial services with interests aligned to China. Notepad++ dev did a great job treating issue seriously.

@jsparber @tommi @modal @xpub I used to have a QEMU macOS VM at one time, it was hacky but it worked. In case that helps...

Sadly don't have any actual Mac apart from a MacBook from 17 years ago.

Anthropic's own fucking study lmao

"Yeah AI coding makes you worse at it"

like
significantly so

This tracks with my personal experience in my previous job.

Rapid deskilling when they started using llm "prompt engineering" for the code they pushed.

Within weeks they basically had stopped being able to explain what they were pushing during code review.

Some genius made his AI remind him to get milk in the morning and it used up his $20 account balance overnight because it kept checking if it was morning every 30 minutes. Lmao. โ€œAIโ€

German police (Sachsen, not even the infamous Berlin police) is using ChatGPT to fake images of injured police officers.

The German union of police officers (GdP, which is also the source of this image) condemn violence โ€ฆ against police officers. ๐Ÿ˜ก

They are the ones who beat up anyone who protests against fossil fuels or genocide, and then they fake their propaganda using GenAI to incite against "violent radical leftists".
