They don't follow the EPC, they just strive_to_grant_as_many patents_as_possible, including software_patents. A couple of months ago the Central Staff Committee communicated with staff as follows: Dear Colleagues, Since the end of 2022, users of the patent system have increasingly voiced their concerns over EPO policies putting the focus on increasing efficiency at the expense of substantive quality. According to Mr Weibel, chief IP counsel at Siemens “the internal quality checks are not properly working anymore due to the focus on productivity” (see “EPO_and_IPQC_reach_impasse_in_patent_quality discussion”, JUVE, 21-02-2023) To reassure the users of the patent system a new measure has now been introduced, the “Active Search Division” principle, aiming at formally integrating in the Patent Work Bench the check of all searches by each member of the potential future Examining Division and their line manager. The project has taken DG1 by surprise and is far from convincing. This paper explains why. Sincerely yours, The Central Staff Committee Here is the full paper as HTML, Plain Text, and GemText: Zentraler Personalausschuss Central Staff Committee Le Comité Central du Personnel Munich, 10-11-2023 sc23134cp § Active Search Division More « checks ». Better quality?⠀➾ Since the end of 2022, users of the patent system have increasingly voiced their concerns over EPO policies putting the focus on increasing efficiency at the expense of substantive quality. According to Mr Weibel, chief IP counsel at Siemens “the internal quality checks are not properly working anymore due to the focus on productivity”1. To reassure the users of the patent system a new measure has now been introduced, the “Active Search Division” principle, aiming at formally integrating in the Patent Work Bench the check of all searches by each member of the potential future Examining Division and their line manager. The project has taken DG1 by surprise and is far from convincing. This paper explains why. ⚓ Quality management⠀⇛ There are essentially three options for dealing with quality: 1) giving employees the time and the means for it, 2) creating new indicators, and 3) introducing new checks. The most effective but costly option is to give employees both the time and the means for quality, and to consequently create career incentives to foster quality. Since 2015, the EPO career system has given little to no place for quality in DG1. It is essentially competition-oriented system based on production/productivity rankings and an additional layer of managerial arbitrariness. Current EPO management has refused so far to put the system into question. Back in 2018, Mr Campinos already declared in meetings with the Central Staff Committee (CSC) that the New Career System was in his view the best reform of his predecessor. Therefore, the EPO has focused on the less effective and cheaper options for dealing with quality. First, the EPO created new Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)2. Among them are a dozen concerning timeliness and another dozen dealing with “user satisfaction” with no transparency as to how they were calculated. There is little room left for indicators relating to substantive quality: the Directorate Quality Audit (DQA) provides those for Quality of Search (at 88,7% below 90% compliance) and Quality of Grants (75,3% below 85% compliance). Second, the EPO has decided to introduce new “checks” via the “Active Search Division” principle. In the past, only positive searches had to be discussed and only with the Chair of the potential future Examining Division. As of 1st November all_searches are now routed to all members of the division via the Patent Work Bench (PWB). _____ 1 “EPO and IPQC reach impasse in patent quality discussion”, JUVE, 21-02-2023 “EPO and IPQC reach impasse in patent quality discussion”, JUVE, 21-02-2023 2 “Quality Objectives and Quality Action Plan 2023” ===================================================================== ⚓ More “checks” in no time. But which “checks”?⠀⇛ Mid-October, line managers invited their examiners to meetings, many of which took place on 31st October, and orally explained that the “Active Search Division” principle would be introduced as of 1st November. Line managers were not in a position to clearly explain which “checks” should be performed by the second member and the Chair. In any case, no time budget is planned for the additional checks despite the fact that the routing of all searches will roughly double the amount of tasks of examiners in the PWB. In the past, “checks” of randomly selected searches were provided with a time budget of 90 minutes per search file under the so-called CASE procedure. A pilot of this “project” apparently took place but information about its existence and the results cannot be found on the Intranet. The DG1 Beats Edition of September 2023 extensively covers the European Inventor Award 2024 and the 50 years EPC celebrations but brings no further information on this major change in the PWB. During the last week of October, a document titled “Active Search Division” Purpose and Principles” (see Annex 1) was circulated by some line managers. The document does not explain what should be checked nor in which amount of time. On 31 October, BIT announced the rollout of the updated PWB software via a mass-email (see Annex 2) without any further information. One week after the rollout, examiners are still left without clear instructions. Some line managers are explaining orally to their examiners to “use [their] common sense and trust the first examiner” [sic!]. ⚓ Legal basis (?) and implications⠀⇛ The European Patent Convention (EPC) in Article_17 defines that “ [t]he Search Divisions shall be responsible for drawing up European search reports.” The Guidelines set out in B-I. 2. that “[t]he member of the search division responsible for the search on a European application is also normally the first member of the examining division for that application.” Only two exceptions are foreseen in the Guidelines, • Where claimed unitary subject-matter covers more than one technical field (B-I.2.2.1.). Exceptionally, where the application covers two or more technical fields which are so diverse that a member trained to carry out searches in one of those fields cannot reasonably be expected to carry out a search in all of them, the responsibility for preparing the search report may be shared between a number of members. • Further searches on a non-unitary application in a different technical field (B-I.2.2.2.) The “Active Search Division” principle now defines an enlarged Search Division for all files. Even at the time of drafting this paper, the Internal Instructions B- I.3 mention that “[T]he digital search workflow is the only applicable workflow” and “[w]hen the first examiner clicks "Commit & View" in Trimaran, the workflow is started for circulating the action to the next actors as shown in the […] table” below: Action type Routing to next actors Search with negative opinion Line manager -> formalities officer Search with positive opinion Chair -> line manager -> formalities officer Search sampled for quality check Chair -> line manager -> formalities officer The “Active Search Division” principle is therefore not compliant with the defined “Digital search workflow”. ===================================================================== 3 The EPO is therefore not consistent with its own guidelines and internal instructions. In addition to that, an enlarged Search Division should be a group of examiners working together and not “checking” the work of each other without any clear indications of what is to be checked. The PWB is inter alia used to perform a kind of authentication of all official actions of an Examining Division by the click of an approve button. Although from now on all members of the Active Search Division are obliged to approve a search and the corresponding opinion under Rule 62(1) EPC before both are sent to the applicant, only the entrusted Search Examiner is presently named on EPO Form 1503 of the European Search Report. In the PWB, this circulation among the members of the “Active Search Division” is run under the title “Examining Division”, leaving it open to the members of the “Active Search Division” whether they act as members of a possible future Examining Division and authenticate any official actions by the click of the approve button. Furthermore, no announcement in the Official Journal (Article 129 (b) EPC) could be found informing the public that the Search Division from now on consists of three members, leading to another hidden procedure in the Office, akin to the concealed role of the line manager. As two members of the “Active Search Division” are not named on the European Search Report, those two members could become members of an Opposition Division without either party knowing that they had been involved in the procedure before – besides leading to possible partiality objections violating Article 19(2) EPC. ⚓ Conclusion⠀⇛ The newly introduced “Active Search Division” principle has all the ingredients to be an empty shell. The project lacks consultation and legal basis. “Checks” are not clearly defined, and no time budget is foreseen. Under these conditions, colleagues might be tempted to adopt a simple “click-forward” approach: “Prima facie no problem is apparent on this search”. The “Active Search Division” principle appears to be purely part of a PR exercise aimed at keeping quiet the users of the patent system and the press. EPO management is still showing no willingness to foster substantive quality. The Central Staff Committee Annex 1: “Active Search Division” Purpose and Principles”, 25-10-2023 Annex 2: “RELEASE NOTICE for Patent Workbench – Active Search Division routing”, BIT User Information Mass-Email, 31-10-2023 § “Active Search Division”⠀➾ ⚓ Purpose and Principles⠀⇛ In short The European Patent Office strives to provide the highest possible level of legal certainty to its users. An essential element of early legal certainty is the completeness and correctness of the Search and the Written Opinion. Consultation has always been integral to EPO’s Search practice. The digitalisation of workflows allows us now to further strengthen this collaborative practice, connecting skills across the Organisation and adapting it to the NWoW. From 1.11.2023 early consultation with the Division at the Search stage will formally be integrated into our workflows and tools. The present guidance is meant to support this process and additionally describes the new PWB circulation of the Search file. Why? The Search Phase is of utmost importance to users when it comes to providing the highest possible early legal certainty. This is why at the EPO, Search has always been based on collaboration between expert examiners. During the last years, the Office carried out pilots to gage the benefits of strengthened collaboration at Search. The Collaborative Quality Initiatives (CQI), Enhancing Collaboration Project (E-Co) and Active Search Division (ASD) pilot, demonstrated that actively involving the division at search stage, improved legal certainty of our actions, reduced unnecessary objections and facilitated a solution-oriented PGP. In parallel, the digitalisation of PGP workflows followed an unprecedented development. In particular developments in the PWB, such the introduction of AI-assisted Digital File Allocation (DFA) and (Pre)-Classification, support the assignment of expert divisions across DG1. Along with developments in the Digital File Repository (DFR) that facilitate the collaborative work within and beyond the Division, tools and practices have now converged into strengthened collaboration practices. Building on the aforementioned developments, the Office is therefore now in a position to formalise the consultation within the Division at search stage. Consequently, from 1.11.2023, all searches will be routed to the complete division via the PWB. In practice: From a practical point of view, Consultation will take place in the usual manner (in-person, teams-call, mail, etc…). It may further make use of the Active Division Area in DFR hen needed e.g. co-editing of documents by all division members. (See screen shot below, please note that in the near future the Shared Area and the Active Division Area will be merged, with no loss of information) w. 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇Active Division Area⦈ ASD 25.10.2023 ===================================================================== Following the sending of the action by the 1st member, the Task Manager in PWB will from 1.11.2023 include a 2nd member and Chair validation also in the search phase. All examiners must therefore check regularly their usual task manager in PWB and process the applications (see screenshot below): • Search actions sent by the First Examiner will appear under “Examining Division” à “Chair” or “Examining Division” à “Second Examiner“ • Search actions sent back by Line Manager to the Chair will appear under “Examining Division” à “Chair” • Search actions sent back by the 2nd or Chair to the first examiner are to be found under “First Examiner” à ”Revision” - as per usual practice. 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇EPO tasks⦈ The Line Manager check remains unchanged (according to any existing deputization context), but as of 1.11.2023, PWB will route files that need corrections to the Chairperson, reflecting the roles of responsibilities within the Division (see Figure below). Whenever a Formalities Officer detects a formal deficiency that needs action by the first, the re-routing will be back to the first examiner, as in the present workflow.

The circulation to the Division of Clarifications at Search -CLAR- and the (rare) Phone Consultations at search phase (TEL) will be rolled out in a later release of the PWB. ===================================================================== From: BIT User Information Sent: 31 October 2023 14:50 Subject: RELEASE NOTICE for Patent Workbench – Active Search Division routing To: DG1, DQA, DG5 Cc: BIT User Information Recipients BIT User Information Dear All, What is being released? As of this evening, 31 October, a new routing is taking place in Patent Workbench for all Search actions sent from Trimaran: - New: all search actions are routed via the Second Member and Chair for their validation, before they are routed to the Line Manager. In case of a finding by the Second Member or Chair, the actions are sent back to the First Member for revision. - New: the Line Manager must either sign-off the actions, or send back to the Chair for revision. - Unchanged: the Formality Officer must either complete the actions, or send back to the First Examiner for revision. The Second Member and Chair will find the tasks in the tray “Examining Division”. The First Examiner will find the sent-back tasks in the tray “Revision”. Note_1: Search actions committed in Trimaran before this release will be circulated according to the former routing (no division member approval needed for negative search report) Note_2: the division members can easily view the Search Report, Search Opinion and application documents in using the PWB Second Window (see also PWB release note 2023-06-28): 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇EPO Philips screens⦈ ===================================================================== What is the installation procedure - What do I have to do?

Representatives Report "Understaffing Combined With Unhealthy Working Pressure in Many Units" to the Overseeing Body of the European Patent Organisation (EPO)⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jan 29, 2024 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Vintage_Drama_Poster⦈_ Not a mistake; this is deliberate (to lower_the_capacity and quality of scrutiny of patent applications) A FEW months back the EPO's Central Staff Committee (CSC), which gets elected by EPO staff, reported that under António_Campinos things continue to worsen in line with Benoît_Battistelli's horrible and often patently illegal policies. Colleagues were told by the CSC about a meeting that celebrated a pseudo- milestone at a time of great crisis for the Office, where corruption had become the "new normal" and laws were simply not followed. To quote: "The agenda of the recent meeting of the Council, which took place on the day after the celebration of the 50th anniversary of the European Patent Convention, was rather short. The most important items were the Office’s activities report and the President of the Boards of Appeal’s activities report. The Staff Representatives cast a critical eye on the EPO’s recruitment policy resulting in understaffing combined with unhealthy working pressure in many units. Software tools would not replace the intellectual work of staff. Only a sincere shift in the orientation of the career system from quantity to quality would meet the needs of users and most importantly society." As shown in leaks from 2022, the EPO intentionally_violates_the_European_Patent Convention to fake so-called 'production' and profit from phony patent monopolies, including software_patents. This is a very serious matter. It serves to obliterate the European software industry, not just Free software development. The following publication from the CSC clearly notes the issue of understaffing, as more_recently_covered_in_other_publications. The CSC has been cautioning about this for_years_already. Here is the full text in HTML, Plain Text, and GemText: Zentraler Personalausschuss Central Staff Committee Le Comité Central du Personnel Munich, 24-10-2023 sc23128cp § Report on the 176th meeting of the Administrative Council of 6 October 2023⠀➾ Dear Colleagues, The agenda of the recent meeting of the Council, which took place on the day after the celebration of the 50th anniversary of the European Patent Convention, was rather short. The most important items were the Office’s activities report and the President of the Boards of Appeal’s activities report. When presenting the Office’s activities report, the President focused on the recent recruitment of 79 Young Professionals, the Campus Days and his view on the work-life balance of staff. VP 1 showed figures on meetings with user associations so as to illustrate the Office’s attempts to achieve better quality. Mr Requena presented the biennial work plan of the Observatory on Patents and Technology. The update on IT matters referred more to co-operation projects with NPOs than to software used internally in search and examination. Many delegations appreciated the co-operations and support by the EPO as to IT projects. They congratulated for the 50th anniversary of the EPC and the launch of the Observatory. The quality debate in the Council was less intense than in the meetings before. The few critical contributions mainly referred to the need for a better overview on software deliveries, the risk of concentrating too much on online work, and a decline in search numbers. The Staff Representatives cast a critical eye on the EPO’s recruitment policy resulting in understaffing combined with unhealthy working pressure in many units. Software tools would not replace the intellectual work of staff. Only a sincere shift in the orientation of the career system from quantity to quality would meet the needs of users and most importantly society. The delegates appreciated the reduction of the backlog in the Boards of Appeal upon Mr Josefsson’s report. He reported also from user consultations on timeliness and video conferences. The Staff Representatives underscored that the independence of the Boards of Appeal was a key element of the EPC. The 23% decrease in appeals in the first half of 2023 compared to the same period last year was a cause for concern. For the Council itself, it was important to elect a new member of the “Board 28”. The task of this panel, named after Article 28 EPC, is to assist the Chairperson in preparing the work of the Council. Mr Margus Viher (EE) will replace Sune Stampe Sørensen (DK), whose term of office expires on 14 December 2023. The Central Staff Committee We hope that putting this in the public domain will help illuminate the very real issues, which are collectively expressed by staff through their already- repressed representatives. █ 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇Report on the 176th meeting of the Administrative Council of 6 October 2023⦈ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿

THE FOLLOWING is a 100% complete reproduction of what my husband told the webhost a few months ago after failed attempts at censorship. It did not mention any names to the webhost, nor are any names mentioned in this post. As the record shows, the webhost could see very clearly what was going on and took our side, keeping the sites in tact and not trying to apply any pressure (or asking for anything to be removed): Hi, I've received professional advice on this today (I only saw the three messages last night; 24 hours isn't enough time to reply). I shall deal with each complaint in turn. What we have here isn't a mentally healthy person (autistic by own admission); the person (openly admits being arrested) not only abuses my wife and my mom (totally unprovoked, just attacking women like it's a hobby) starts lying to you about everything because they don't like the women speaking out about the abuse they've received. Do not take instructions/takedown requests from a person who comes to the site to post messages like "gas the Jews" with other threatening language (borderline death threats); it would not look good. What we have here is not a British person... harassing British people. The images in question are screenshots; they're not just fair use, but the LinkedIn stuff is public under license (check the LinkedIn licensing and ToS). These screenshots fall 100% under Fair use Doctrine. It's very trivial, as any reputable lawyer would likely tell you the same. They're publicly available, just search the name and it's #1 result in Google. The person is clearly perjuring herself/themselves, and that is yet another crime. Laws apply to trans people as much as anyone else. Posting illegal stuff online, impersonating people, abusing women, and even abusing gays (yes, that too) while shouting "gas the Jews" may merit responses. Do not censor the people who explain the abuse they suffered. Censorship by deliberate misrepresentation of copyright law is in its own right misuse of copyright law. It's easy to challenge in court and even holding the frivolous reporter accountable is feasible (for the reporter to pay our legal fees). That is the message my husband sent. Legally proficient people, not people who merely pretend (lying about their own credential), sided with us. There is hard proof for all of the words above. Of course we would have taken legal action (a year ago already) if the perpetrator was not financially broke. Next week, on Monday as usual, we will show another invalid attempt to censor the sites in vain. It's part of a pattern. █ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠰⠱⣾⣵⣮⡇⡆⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠓⠘⠗⠻⡇⡇⠘⠸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢹⡿⠿⡟⢻⣿⣿⢿⡏⠀⠉⠰⣟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢁⡘⢳⠃⡇⠀⠀⣿⡇⢻⡿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣷⠆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠉⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠌⠀⠃⠀⠀⢿⡇⠀⢫⡛⣿⣛⠀⠓⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠂⠲⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣇⠀⠀⠝⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠾⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣦⡆⢸⣿⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣶⠆⠀⣠⣶⣶⣿⣿⣿⣷⣦⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠋⠉⠉⠉⠙⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠀⠀⠙⡇⠈⣿⣇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣴⣿⣿⣫⣿⣿⣿⣽⣿⣿⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠁⠀⢀⣠⣄⠀⠀⠀⠈⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣤⣄⠀⠀⢸⣷⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⣷⠀⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣷⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⠀⣾⣿⣿⣧⠀⠀⠀⠀⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠻⡿⢂⣀⣸⣏⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⡀⣿⣿⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⣿⣧⠸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⢈⣿⣿⣉⣁⣀⠀⠀⠘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠹⣿⣿⡆⠀⢢⠀⠀⠈⢿⣷⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢹⡿⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠠⢻⡿⢿⣆⣤⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⢾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⠀⠀⠀⡼⠀⠀⠀⠈⢻⣿⣿⡇⢀⢀⣤⠀⠀⠀⢻⠆⠀⣾⠙⢿⣿⣿⣿⠻⣿⣿⣆⣀⠈⠁⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠘⡟⣉⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⠀⠈⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣾⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⡿⢀⣶⣿⣦⡀⠀⠀⠐⠋⢀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣷⣅⣙⠛⠁⠀⣤⣤⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⠀⠀⠀⠈⠻⢿⣟⣫⣶⡆⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⣤⣤⣤⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸⠋⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⡀⢠⣀⠀⠊⠛⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦⣦⣼⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⢀⡮⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢿⡗⠀⠀⢀⣤⣤⠐⠰⠎⢢⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡄⢻⣿⣶⣯⣽⣷⣛⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠁⠀⣠⣾⣷⣿⣿⣿⡿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣂⡘⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠃⠀⠠⣿⣿⠂⠀⠀⠀⢠⠄⠀⠀⠀⣤⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣄⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡆⠀⠘⣿⣯⣿⣿⣷⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠈⣿⠻⡎⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣾⣿⣷⣦⡀⠘⠟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣉⣙⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠈⢟⣿⣿⣷⠀⠀⠰⡿⠃⠀⠀⠘⠁⠀⠀⠘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⠁⠀⠀⢀⣀⣤⣢⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣿⡷⠉⠙⠛⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣀⢀⠀⠠⠈⣄⡿⠀⠀⠀⢰⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠉⠉⣉⡀⠨⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠐⠿⠿⠷⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠻⠟⣠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⠈⠄⡿⠇⠀⠀⠈⠸⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⡍⢹⡏⠀⠀⠀⢠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⠋⢀⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸⢋⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠉⠹⣷⣦⡘⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣠⡀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠁⣸⠁⠀⠀⠀⠈⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣦⡈⡟⠀⠴⠆⠀⠀⠀⣼⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⣀⠀⠈⠻⢿⡆⠀⠀⢀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣟⣿⠀⢹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠛⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣸⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠞⢨⢯⡟⢀⡄⠀⠀⢻⡟⠆⠀⣀⣠⣄⡈⠛⣿⠀⢬⣹⣿⣿⣿⣻ ⠀⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⠉⢁⣤⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠿⠛⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⢻⠿⠿⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠀⢠⢻⣇⠀⠁⠀⠈⠛⠻⢾⡿⠿⡍⠉⠀⠀⠈⠀⠨⢯⢹⣯⣹⣏ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣤⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠇⠀⠀⠀⢨⣭⠉⠀⠘⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⠹⠻⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠃⠘⠙⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⡴⢧⡼⢧⡼ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣶⣀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠻⠿⠿⠟⠁⠀⠀⠰⣤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⢃⠘⢃⠚⢂ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1531 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://news.techrights.org/n/2024/01/29/Over_at_Tux_Machines.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.techrights.org/n/2024/01/29/Over_at_Tux_Machines.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Over at Tux Machines...⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jan 29, 2024 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Frozen_In_Time⦈_ ⚓ Updated This Past Day⠀⇛ 1. ⚓ New_renderers_for_GTK⠀⇛ Recently, GTK gained not one, but two new renderers: one for GL and one for Vulkan 2. ⚓ AMD_Open_Sources_Drivers_for_XDNA-Based_NPUs⠀⇛ AMD Open Sources Drivers for XDNA-Based NPUs, Boosting ML and Signal Processing Performance 3. ⚓ Annotating_the_Debian_packaging_directory⠀⇛ In my previous blog post Providing online reference documentation for debputy 4. ⚓ Niri:_A_Scrollable-Tiling_Wayland_Compositor⠀⇛ The first stable Niri v0.1.0 release offers scrollable tiling 5. ⚓ 5_Compelling_Reasons_Why_You_Should_Learn_Linux⠀⇛ Linux is a powerful operating system that fuels most of our digital world 6. ⚓ 9_Best_Free_and_Open_Source_Graphical_YouTube_Tools_Bypassing_the_Web- Only_Barrier⠀⇛ All of the tools are free and open source software 7. ⚓ GNOME_battery_charge_control⠀⇛ As someone who has to use a laptop for work, I keep my laptop plugged in 8 hours or more a day 8. ⚓ Budgie_10.9_Desktop_Adds_Initial_Wayland_Support,_Redesigned_Bluetooth Applet⠀⇛ The Budgie desktop team announced today the release and general availability of Budgie 10.9 as the latest version of this modern desktop environment for GNU/Linux distributions. 9. ⚓ Free,_Libre,_and_Open_Source_Software_Leftovers⠀⇛ Some FOSS links 10. ⚓ Security_and_Windows_TCO_Leftovers⠀⇛ a few bits of security news 11. ⚓ today's_leftovers⠀⇛ BSD, IBM, and more 12. ⚓ Arch_Linux-Based_SystemRescue_11_Released_with_Linux_Kernel_6.6_LTS⠀⇛ Arch Linux-based SystemRescue 11 live Linux toolkit for system rescue and recovery tasks has been released today with a newer kernel, new packages, and various enhancements. 13. ⚓ today's_howtos⠀⇛ first long batch for today 14. ⚓ The_Land_Before_Linux:_The_Unix_desktops⠀⇛ Way back in 1993, I oversaw a PC Magazine feature review on Unix desktops.

Over the coming few days we'll highlight views and some pseudo-'news' about LLMs, which are marketed as "AI" rather than just chatbots which aren't even that good and lack commercial value in most areas they're being marketed for. Microsoft's quarterly festival of fake_'results' is only a day away. People whom I spoke to over the telephone tell me Microsoft will probably fixate on "HEY HI" (AI) hype to mostly distract from how badly almost every division has been doing, continuing a downward trend (rapid decline). What is this "HEY HI" thing anyway? Just about anything they wish to label or relabel as "HEY HI", just like they did with servers and "clown computing". Faking "growth" by nymshifting is a form of commercial cannibalism. This week's series will thus coincide with a sea of puff pieces about "HEY HI". Recommended readings on this kind of hype include this recent_(last_month) article_about_"HEY_HI"_being_a_bubble,_based_purely_on_hype. But heck, what do I know about it anyway? It's not like I'm a coder or something, right? It's not like I spent over 20 years doing machine learning, right? Actually, I did. As a student and as a postdoc I worked a lot with what the media now calls "AI", going back to 2002 when I made computer games with OpenGL and needed to work on some "logic", e.g. in my_undergraduate_project. So I think I have a good grasp of this area. My Ph.D._thesis (which I started writing in 2005, i.e. 19 years ago) covers the mathematics behind machine learning as applied to analysis of brain images, acquired typically by MRI. Later work I did included more hands-on applications with OpenCV, Android, and Octave. I can agree wholeheartedly with the text contributed to us by another person who understands the subject matter and doesn't just "name-drop" the term, in effect parroting narratives from the mainstream media, sponsored primarily though advertisers, i.e. Microsoft, Google and so on. The contributor's words will form future parts of this week's series. Regarding the whole "illusion" (we shall use the word delusion in this series), Baldur_Bjarnason_did_a_whole_book_about_it and, quoting his outline: "Most of the hype is bullshit. AI is already full of grifters, cons, and snake oil salesmen, and it’s only going to get worse." This past weekend was the first time I heard of this book, but so many con artists infested the media with "AI" hype. So the summary seems like a fresh breath of air. In December I overheard two men in the tram talking about "AI", so the media clearly controls people's offline vocabulary and that alone is rather troubling. By changing language they can change perceptions and conversations. Suddenly servers become "the cloud" and security_breaches_are_painted_as_just "fucking_Russians". Breaches_are_now_"attacks". We try not to cover the buzzwords too often as it mostly magnifies the 'hype cycle' and the newspeak. In the next part, scheduled for tomorrow, I shall explain my own understanding and interpretation of LLMs as a concept. Sentence generators are something I've studied for about 20 years, not counting rudimentary things like tokenisation, which I dealt with as a programmer 23 years ago. The next part, "What Are LLMs Anyway?", won't use very technical language. Alex Oliva, who is a programmer, followed_Richard_Stallman's_take_on_this_matter two months later with a metaphor ("Stochastic_Parrots"). We have heard of other metaphors such as "plausible sentence generators" and LLMs being a unconventional "digital pagpag". "The more I read about 'pagpag' the more the metaphor makes sense for LLMs," one person told us after the analogy had been floated last week. █ ⠀⠀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⢀⡀⠀⠀⣀⠀⣀⣀⣀⣀⡀⠀⠀⢀⡀⢀⣀⠀⠀⣀⢀⣠⣄⣀⣀⡀⣀⣀⣀⣀⠀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⠀⠀⠀⢀⡀⠀⢀⣠⣤⣀⠀⠀⣀⣀⣀⣀⠀⣀⡀⠀⢀⡀⠀⢀⣠⣤⣀⠀⢀⣀⣀⣀⡀⠀ ⠀⠀⠉⠉⣿⠉⠉⢸⡇⠀⠀⣿⠀⣿⠉⠉⠉⠁⠀⠀⢸⡇⢸⡿⣆⠀⣿⠈⠉⢹⡏⠉⠁⣿⠉⠉⠉⠀⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⠀⠀⠀⢸⡇⢠⣿⠉⠉⠹⠃⠀⣿⠉⠉⠉⠀⣿⢷⡀⢸⡇⢰⡿⠉⠉⠻⠂⢸⡏⠉⠉⠁⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⠀⠀⢸⡟⠛⠛⣿⠀⣿⠛⠛⠛⠀⠀⠀⢸⡇⢸⡇⠹⣆⣿⠀⠀⢸⡇⠀⠀⣿⠛⠛⠛⠀⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⠀⠀⠀⢸⡇⢸⣇⠀⠰⠶⣶⠀⣿⠛⠛⠛⠀⣿⠈⢷⣸⡇⢸⣇⠀⠀⢀⠀⢼⡟⠛⠛⠃⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⠀⠀⢸⡇⠀⠀⣿⠀⣿⣤⣤⣤⡄⠀⠀⢸⡇⢸⡇⠀⢻⣿⠀⠀⢸⡇⠀⠀⣿⣤⣤⣤⡄⣿⣤⣤⣤⠀⣿⣤⣤⣤⢸⡇⠀⠻⣦⣤⡶⠟⠀⣿⣤⣤⣤⠀⣿⠀⠘⣿⡇⠈⠿⣦⣴⡾⠃⢻⣧⣤⣤⡄⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⠀⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⠀⠀⠀⢸⡇⠀⠀⣿⠀⣴⠟⠛⢷⠄⢸⡇⢀⣾⠟⠛⢷⡄⢸⣿⡄⠀⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⠀⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⠀⠀⠀⢸⡇⠀⠀⣿⠀⠹⠷⣦⣤⡀⢸⡇⢸⡇⠀⠀⢸⣧⢸⡇⢻⡄⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⠀⣿⣀⣀⣀⠀⣿⣀⣀⣀⠸⣧⣀⣀⣿⠀⣤⣀⣀⣹⡇⢸⡇⠸⣧⣀⣀⣼⠇⢸⡇⠈⢿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠛⠀⠛⠛⠛⠛⠀⠛⠛⠛⠋⠀⠉⠛⠋⠁⠀⠈⠙⠛⠉⠀⠘⠃⠀⠈⠙⠋⠁⠀⠘⠃⠀⠈⠛⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⡀⠀⡀⠀⡀⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⠀⠀⡀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⠁⠀⠉⠀⠀⠊⠉⠈⠈⠁⠈⠁⠈⠉⠀⠀⠀⠁⠀⠈⠀⠁⠀⠈⠁⠁⠁⠁⠁⠈⠀⠈⠁⠀⠀⠀⠁⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠁⠀⠂⠃⠀⠀⠘⠓⠛⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣽⣭⣻⣿⣹⣻⣿⣿⣿⣟⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣙⣟⣿⣿⣯⣙⣟⣟⣿⣿⣹⣿⣛⣟⣻⣟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⡟⠿⢿⡿⣿⣿⣿⡟⢿⢿⡿⣿⠿⣿⢿⣿⣿⡿⡿⡟⣿⣿⣿⠿⣿⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣫⣿⣿⣿⣯⢻⢿⣿⣿⣻⣻⣿⣿⣿⣯⣻⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠈⣏⠶⣁⢱⢸⢸⣾⡇⡆⣏⡇⡭⣝⣭⢺⡇⡷⢹⢃⠯⣕⣿⠹⢹⡆⡆⡏⢯⣭⢺⠸⡆⡇⣏⡇⡇⡯⣕⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣟⢿⡟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⣇⣇⣇⣇⣗⣤⣻⣸⣸⣿⣽⣘⣇⣟⣻⣇⣇⣇⣇⣇⣇⣿⣷⢹⣕⣇⣇⣇⣿⣇⣇⣇⣓⣅⣷⣘⣇⣿⣘⣇⣇⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⠿⣿⡿⡿⣿⡿⡿⣿⢿⢿⢿⢿⢿⠿⣿⢿⡿⡿⡿⡿⢿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⣿⣬⣣⣿⣼⣧⣿⣿⣽⣼⣼⣼⣶⣽⣼⣬⣧⣻⣧⣿⣶⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣯⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣿⣿⣽⣿⣿⣿⣽⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1898 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://news.techrights.org/n/2024/01/29/The_Great_LLM_Delusion_Part_II_What_Are_LLMs_Anyway_To_Microsof.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.techrights.org/n/2024/01/29/The_Great_LLM_Delusion_Part_II_What_Are_LLMs_Anyway_To_Microsof.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ The Great LLM Delusion - Part II: What Are LLMs Anyway? (To Microsoft, a Pump and Dump Scheme)⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jan 29, 2024 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Brown_And_White_Chinese_Goose⦈_ I HAVE written a great deal and commented on this topic before, but this is a relatively short introductory part from the perspective of someone who worked with "AI" since age 20. In Part_I_of_this_series we mentioned Microsoft's dependence on "AI" hype. It is a dangerously strong dependence because, in case the bubble bursts, Microsoft needs to quickly hop on (or create) another hype wave, no matter if they call it "automation" or "robotics" or "fifth industrial revolution" (whatever that actually is). At the moment, working_for_Microsoft_means_a_high_risk_of_suffering_layoffs. Most_Microsoft_workers_wish_to_work_somewhere_else,_given_the_choice. Currently Microsoft is the world leader in tech layoffs. No_company_in_tech_laid_off_more than_Microsoft_(so_far_this_year). Forget about mainstream media serving to distract from all this with a perception of company "value". Remember Enron and Worldcom? Anyway, what is this "AI" thing Microsoft keeps talking about? Actually, it is not AI at all. It is SCIgen on steroids (more code and more computational power, lots of plagiarised data). It is false marketing. In later parts, which we'll publish for a contributor, we shall explain why, but basically when they say "AI" they typically mean a chatbot that is plagiarism as a service. Ignore pseudo-academic work funded by Microsoft "Research". ChatGPT is 99% plagiarism and 1% "logic" or "glue". It's taking bits and pieces from many sites and presents those to users without links, without attribution, and without any understanding of what those bits and pieces mean, especially in conjunction, i.e. when seamed together. One associate keeps reminding me that all this chatbot hype serves as a distraction from the empty server farms of Microsoft. I saw it where I worked; almost nobody uses Azure, unlike AWS, but the media helps Microsoft lie and it repeatedly makes false_statements (in the case of OpenAI, it's Microsoft "buying" from Microsoft, i.e. Microsoft faking demand by becoming its own "customer"). What a swindle! Those grifters rely on people investing their money in this bubble. Based on all my investigations, there is very little demand for Azure and Microsoft insiders kept telling me that Azure staff was being laid off and datacentres shut down. They are actually closing datacentres, but they keep quiet about it while making a ton of noise each time - however rare - they open a new one in some country. These "clown computing" companies seldom give a map of their locations, for security and logistical reasons. In the case of Amazon, the list had_to_be_leaked_to_Wikileaks. How many locations does Microsoft have datacentres in, how many machines run in each, and how many are used only by Microsoft (or proxies like OpenAI) itself? Based on the latest Netcraft survey of Web servers, which was released_last week, the number of Microsoft machines is going down. I've been reminded that "there is not enough electricity in the world to power all of whatever they try to sell" (chatbots in everything) and trying to stick chatbots into everything - partly to fake demand for them - is driving_people_away_from_Windows_and_into GNU/Linux. This isn't going to end well. The "giveaways" and "discounts" cause Microsoft's_debt_to_balloon. █ ⡢⣤⡾⣷⠀⠩⠹⠦⠭⢭⣯⣉⡩⣭⣿⣿⣿⢋⡻⣹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣾⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣾⢿⡿⣿⣿⡿⢿⣿⣿⢷⣿⣿⢿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⢵⣿⣿⣿⠾⡷⠿⡏⣿⣳⠏⣺⡷⢾⡾⢿⣿⣿⢿ ⠴⠿⠣⢀⣠⠤⠺⠢⢤⠂⠞⣠⣶⣴⣾⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣿⣿⣽⣿⡻⡷⠿⠻⢯⣿⢽⣏⣂⣯⣽⣿⣾⣶⡖⢒⢫⣿⣽⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣾⣿⣿⣻⣛⣿⣟⣿⡭⣽⣭⣿⣿⣶⣾⡷⣿⣶⣿⣿⢿⡿⢾ ⢪⠄⣲⣇⢶⣦⣜⣩⣯⣿⣟⣟⣿⣿⡿⡟⣿⡿⢿⣿⣿⣓⣿⡯⣿⣿⣻⣷⣿⢮⢽⡷⢷⣶⣿⢤⣿⣷⠿⢥⣤⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣟⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣶⣿⣽⣿⡿⠿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣋⣽ ⡈⣉⠛⠤⢳⣔⠛⠋⢋⣝⠛⣒⡛⠋⠸⠷⢿⡿⣞⣶⢿⣥⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⢿⢿⣿⣿⠿⠾⣿⡿⠿⠿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⢿⣷⣿⣿⣹⣿⣿⣟⣹⣯⣿⣿⣯⣿⣿⠏⢓⣿⣍⡹⢝⣉⢩⣘⢛⣽⠟⠛⠐⠂⣸⠬⢫ ⢒⢒⣿⠏⠙⠛⣶⣒⢛⣲⡆⠯⣷⣲⣿⣿⢯⣿⣯⠷⡯⣛⣿⣝⢭⣿⣛⣿⣿⣿⣿⠘⡘⠛⢶⣶⣦⣤⡈⠛⢿⣻⣿⣿⡻⣿⠟⠏⠻⠭⣽⢿⡟⡯⠼⠏⢖⢺⣿⣛⠝⠛⢓⣸⣞⣫⣽⣮⣵⡿⠚⠎⠶⠴⣀⣰⣤⣿ ⣀⣈⣀⠀⣤⢴⡳⠻⠚⡿⠛⣾⣿⣳⡟⣻⣿⣿⠷⣾⡛⣟⣟⣷⣯⣿⣿⣿⡿⠟⠋⠀⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⡄⠉⠈⠋⠄⢀⣋⣀⡠⣢⣽⡻⡭⣑⣀⣶⡼⡇⣜⣷⢿⡿⣿⠒⠙⡢⠝⠚⣓⣢⣄⣜⣿⣄⣡⡬⣉⣨ ⠠⠀⠀⠁⢸⣂⣨⡾⠻⣮⣶⣾⠷⣾⣟⡻⠏⢡⠡⣳⣮⢿⣻⡽⣿⢿⠄⡵⠀⣀⠀⣀⡈⢩⣛⣻⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣆⠀⠠⣉⡹⢇⡻⠽⠿⢷⢶⣼⡞⢮⡝⠻⠃⠉⠋⠚⢘⡋⠬⠠⣹⣹⣜⢯⣕⣶⠥⢹⢤⣘⣿⡿⣿ ⠿⠾⢟⣿⣶⡟⣹⣼⣠⡹⣹⡀⠘⣐⣺⣝⡿⡻⠟⣽⡿⡙⡹⡨⣼⣴⡮⠬⠄⠧⢀⡌⣥⣜⣡⠄⣀⠼⣿⣿⣿⣿⡆⢙⣿⣞⣣⣶⣤⣾⠿⠵⠉⠀⠍⣦⣤⣬⣤⣤⣶⣾⣿⡶⣾⣿⣿⣾⣷⣶⣾⣾⡭⠿⡻⡿⢿⣻ ⣦⡾⣚⣷⡯⢟⣟⡿⣾⣓⠉⠐⡛⢻⢫⣯⡏⠺⣛⡴⣞⣛⣉⡛⠧⢒⣿⣡⠄⣿⡿⣖⢛⢋⠉⠤⠂⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⠈⡻⢭⡯⣍⢷⣺⣿⣭⣶⣤⣸⠻⡞⠽⠉⣿⣟⣿⣿⣷⣻⢿⣿⣿⢷⡶⣻⣿⣷⢖⣄⢃⡼⠉ ⣿⣥⣿⣿⣿⣿⣗⣛⣻⣼⣾⣳⠿⠛⠿⣛⣩⣹⢷⣝⣋⡭⣝⣉⢱⣾⠿⠍⣨⣵⣆⣦⣄⣬⣭⣄⡆⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⢡⣟⣾⣏⡉⢿⣿⡙⠳⣍⣙⣭⣁⣳⣿⣉⣉⣋⣁⢟⡖⠸⣿⣿⣯⣛⣈⣛⣻⣷⣿⣿⣻⣿ ⣿⡿⡞⡯⢝⠃⠉⡀⠸⠴⡧⠀⢨⠲⡓⠶⠿⠋⠄⢛⠛⢓⡨⡿⢭⠍⠐⠊⠡⣻⡞⡽⡿⠶⠟⠛⣛⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣆⠰⣿⣾⣿⣿⡿⣾⣼⣾⣤⣿⡟⢷⢻⣽⣯⣤⢶⡚⢡⡽⠷⢛⣻⡯⣻⣏⣁⣽⣽⠿⣛⣛⣻ ⣿⣷⣦⣤⢽⣘⣤⣿⣧⣖⢱⢴⣒⠀⣹⠾⡿⡛⠀⡿⡗⢰⣶⣷⡶⠲⣞⢾⣵⣛⢋⣬⡍⣍⣀⣍⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠶⠤⠚⠑⠶⠿⢿⡷⢛⣟⠟⣃⢩⣎⡃⣁⣰⢿⣖⢛⣛⣿⢶⣧⣾⡻⢫⣽⣾⡅⠽⣿⣮⢽ ⡽⡀⡬⠿⠺⠧⠾⠉⠛⠍⢽⣽⡻⡏⠒⠩⢕⠳⠟⠋⠉⢬⣅⠀⠁⠈⠓⠞⠀⠺⠽⡟⢽⠯⢍⡱⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⠏⡳⠈⣻⠻⠧⢯⡽⠏⣼⣿⣝⣿⣿⣿⣿⢧⡼⣽⡟⢻⠿⢿⣽⡏ ⣠⡀⠀⠐⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠐⡺⢖⡀⠤⠤⠤⠠⢀⡨⣡⣐⡀⣠⡰⣤⣵⣖⣤⣶⠲⣛⡢⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠛⣩⣉⣰⡬⠗⠜⡁⢀⠐⣘⣟⠛⠁⢘⠱⠉⠉⠐⠲⢬⣿⣶ ⠒⣄⠁⠀⣀⣀⠠⣦⡄⡤⠰⡨⠈⡐⡦⢌⣀⣠⣠⣾⣒⣴⣷⢶⣾⣾⣤⠥⠯⣽⡱⡿⣛⠂⠂⢈⣼⢿⣿⣿⣿⡥⣂⡥⠔⢀⠤⠀⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⠀⠐⠰⠄⢒⠂⣐⣽⣥⣽⣠⣿⢿⣯⣽⣤⣾⣴⣣⣶⣬⢄⢳ ⠳⢞⢚⣹⠟⠷⢕⡤⠵⠂⣌⢨⡵⠹⠻⠿⠏⠋⠘⠀⠾⠂⢧⠼⢉⡿⡋⢯⠁⢢⣥⠓⡐⠀⠀⢈⡁⠈⢿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣒⣚⣡⡔⣂⡁⢄⡀⠀⡑⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⢺⡿⡗⠻⠙⠙⠻⠻⠛⠛⠻⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣽⠿⢿ ⣲⣆⣏⢃⣞⠼⣇⣤⣸⣯⣤⢢⣠⢇⠩⠁⣠⠀⣅⠐⠀⠸⢀⠐⢂⠈⡤⠦⢹⣽⡥⢤⠩⣳⠢⣽⣷⠐⣫⣿⡿⡻⠿⣿⣶⣦⢤⡔⠐⠁⠐⢀⠈⠲⢌⣁⡀⣀⠄⡀⠀⡀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣼⣟⡫⣑⣾⣿⣿⣧⡾ ⣏⣿⡽⢣⡳⠓⠿⣹⡷⣟⣻⣽⣧⣶⡤⣾⢏⣟⣻⣷⣷⣴⣿⢄⣤⣨⣧⢶⣶⠠⠀⠤⢈⠋⣴⡾⢲⢿⡺⠷⣁⣀⠰⠀⠹⠻⣿⣿⣷⣅⣢⣀⠓⠦⠄⠈⠐⠀⠉⠂⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣴⡿⡯⢩⡀⣩⡍⣹⠿⢋⡝ ⣻⠷⣗⢿⣷⢸⣳⢋⣶⣿⣿⡿⢷⣨⣿⣿⢾⡖⣭⣟⣚⣿⣭⣶⣿⡛⢦⣦⣂⣤⠩⠀⠈⢼⡿⠟⢛⢁⡘⠖⣳⣿⣆⠀⡇⣤⣭⣷⣥⣁⣠⣤⣤⣀⣀⣤⣤⣤⣼⣅⣠⣄⣠⠄⠀⠘⠋⠛⠿⠟⢣⣆⢅⣼⣨⣰⣛⣾ ⣯⣹⣿⢻⣉⣀⣻⡟⣉⣿⠿⣴⣿⣿⣿⠞⣿⣻⣿⣮⣿⣿⣽⣯⡿⣎⣘⣷⠟⣙⡆⠒⠐⢀⣄⣈⡨⢟⠻⣖⣺⣿⣟⣀⣃⠃⢸⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠏⠁⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢿⣿⣿⠿⣿⣾ ⠿⠿⢣⡁⢘⢛⠉⠿⣯⢿⣿⠾⢼⣧⢽⣾⡿⠟⠡⣼⣙⠻⠹⠏⡗⠻⠿⠟⠉⠀⡈⠔⠁⣞⣿⢶⡍⠙⣩⣷⣲⣾⣮⢩⡿⢟⣬⣾⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠟⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⣿⣯⣯⣽ ⣖⡞⢹⣠⣾⣿⡷⢋⣝⣮⣽⣵⢺⣛⠳⢌⠌⡱⠟⠁⠢⠶⠉⣂⣤⢄⠁⣀⣬⣖⣇⣩⣟⣋⣿⣿⣻⠿⣻⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⢿⣿⣿⠟⠋⡜⠿⠿⡛⠛⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠁⠹⣿⣿⢿ ⡜⠝⡾⠿⣿⣿⡅⠹⠟⢛⢛⢛⣿⠏⠀⢁⣀⣱⡤⠄⣰⠀⣦⢞⣶⣾⢺⣿⠿⣿⣽⣾⣿⣷⣾⣷⣿⣿⣽⣽⣿⣿⣳⣿⢿⡿⠁⠀⣺⣧⢬⠷⢦⣷⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⠿⢿ ⢿⣧⣼⣥⣽⣿⣯⣾⣦⣲⡧⡜⡐⢐⡏⢋⡁⢭⣷⣶⣌⣿⠿⣿⣿⣿⡞⠻⣿⣟⣯⣿⣟⣾⣟⣿⣿⡟⣿⣿⣿⣯⡿⣿⣯⣿⡄⠀⡈⣖⡟⠀⣾⡿⣷⠦⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⠀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣄⣤⣤⣤⡄⣤⠰⢾ ⣷⣮⠹⣿⣿⣋⣴⠟⢡⠍⣴⠀⠀⣸⣇⣽⠠⢼⣙⣻⣯⣬⣯⡽⣷⡀⣒⣀⣾⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣷⣷⣋⡅⠁⠀⡆⠈⠀⠀⠁⢀⣠⣤⣶⡶⣾⣿⣿⡿⢿⣿⣷⢿⣽⣿⡿⣯⣍⡿⣿⣿⢟⢻⣿⣯ ⣟⣢⣤⣝⠃⣶⣿⢂⣏⠈⢛⠸⣋⣻⠨⢂⣀⣌⡤⣉⡉⣘⠋⢿⢛⠿⣿⣽⣿⣫⣿⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣿⡟⢿⣿⣿⣷⣦⣤⣀⣠⣤⣤⣾⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⡯⠥⣛⣛⣿⣽⢿⡿⢇⣁⣀⣤⣿⣟⡼⢿⣿⣿ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2009 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐃𝐀𝐈𝐋𝐘 𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐊𝐒 ═════════════════════════════════════════════╕ ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Gemini Links 29/01/2024: Frames Of Reference and Thoughts on the Gemini Protocol After a Year⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jan 29, 2024 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Portrait_Of_A_Leopard⦈_ 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇GNOME bluefish⦈ § Contents⠀➾ * Gemini*_and_Gopher o Personal/Opinions o Games o Technology_and_Free_Software # Internet/Gemini * § Gemini* and Gopher⠀➾ o § Personal/Opinions⠀➾ # ⚓ books,_lots'a_books⠀⇛ ...asking if I used to host a large book collection. No. However, it inspired me to do so. I have mirrored Project Gutenberg (just the text files) and scripted a simple grep based search of the index text file. # ⚓ 🔤SpellBinding:_AYEKPSC_Wordo:_BORED⠀⇛ # ⚓ Frames_Of_Reference-_Chapter_4⠀⇛ Memories rush to me like oncoming traffic. A fragment here, a vague recollection there, one place tied to another by coincidence. All colliding headlong onto me, and all I can do is kneel down, cradle my face in my hands, and hope the impact doesn’t hurt too much. # ⚓ Frames_Of_Reference-_Chapter_5⠀⇛ The sunscreen in my palm is growing complacent. I’ve never liked sunscreen, never liked the way it feels on your skin. Even though it should feel refreshing, it doesn’t. It’s warm and viscous and it creates stains on clothes. I keep thinking I’ll opt for the type that’s a condensed stick, like deodorant, but whenever I’m at Walmart I’m in a rush and I stupidly grab the tube. Well, we need it. We’ve used up around twenty tubes so far, although I’m not keeping an exact tally. I’m sleep deprived, still feeling the effects of the ribs and the building is locked. I looked in the windows, they’re all dark and the receptionist is nowhere to be found. Finally, ten minutes late, right when I’m prepared to call the whole thing off and assume the facility is shut down due to unforeseen circumstances, a gas leak or something, Bradford rolls around the corner, smug grin at the helm of his modified Bentley Continental. He lets out a hearty cry and pulls up alongside me. # ⚓ 2024_Week_2/3/4:_Photos⠀⇛ A family friend flew into town to visit for a few days this week. We arrived at the airport quite early on the day of his flight, so we decided to park and wait inside the terminal. A fire extinguisher was mounted on the pillar next to our parking space. Its metal case had seen better days. o § Games⠀➾ # ⚓ Collective_delusions_of_a_past_that_didn't_exist⠀⇛ When I was in my last stretch of high school one of my closest friends and I were really into this game called Omori. It's a JRPG game in the tradition of Undertale or Earthbound that has themes of childhood trauma and dreams, both figuratively and literally. The game takes place between two worlds: one where the protagonist Sunny is asleep (Headspace) and one where he's awake (Faraway Town). Headspace is a sort of idealized and fantastical image of Sunny's childhood, and so despite Faraway Town being a familiar, bright, apparently happy place one might recognize from Earthbound-type games, it's still haunted by this feeling of loss--the loss of what Headspace retains. o § Technology and Free Software⠀➾ # ⚓ The_last_bike_I'll_ever_need⠀⇛ Strasbourg had (and probably still does) a great tram system, but I still couldn't bear the wait. It didn't matter that the wait at the stations were rarely more than 3 minutes or that the tram could outpace any cars thanks to its reserved lanes and priority at traffic lights. Something in me didn't like the idea of waiting to wait some more. You waited for a tram at the station, only to wait on the tram for the next station, and waited for the people to get on and off... For some time, I would read during the ride, and it would pass instantly, but I had lost the habit along the way and now I just grew restless. # ⚓ Setting_up_NixOS⠀⇛ I got a new laptop (yay!), so I need to set it up. A good opportunity to try NixOS for the first time. Actually for the second time - the first time, a few years ago, I bounced off it almost immediately. # § Internet/Gemini⠀➾ # ⚓ Thoughts_on_the_Gemini_Protocol_After_a_Year⠀⇛ My site is first and foremost a gemini capsule, although I built a program to convert the files I write in gemtext to static html and gophermap files. This includes the interface to view my git repositories. This system works quite well for me so far. If anything I want to simplify my site even more. After having my site be a gemini capsule for over a year, I figured I would state my thoughts on the Gemini protocol, gemtext, and geminispace. This post is mostly meant for folks who use the gemini protocol, even if this post is also available in HTTP and Gopher. =============================================================================== * Gemini_(Primer) links can be opened using Gemini_software.

Sometimes it’s because Plan A never works out the way I think it will, due to either naivety or simply the random blockers that always get in the way and need surmounting. But a decent percentage of the time, it’s because something really cool happens along the way. Indeed, my favorite kind of “simple” projects are those that open up your eyes to a new world of possibilities or experiments that, taken together, are nothing like simple anymore. o ⚓ LRT ☛ Lithuania’s_pavilion_at_Venice_Biennale_looks_at_planet_in fever⠀⇛ The Lithuanian artist duo Pakui Hardware will be representing the country at the 60th International Art Exhibition of the Venice Biennale.

It turns out, however, that control of systems like these can get complicated quickly; so much so that these types of problems have spawned their own dedicated branch of engineering. As controls engineers delve into this field, one of their initial encounters with a control system is often with the PID controller, and this open source project delivers two of these general-purpose controllers in one box. # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ A_Look_At_3D_Printed_Professional_LED_Signage⠀⇛ Customer perception is everything when you’re running a business, particularly in retail.

Meta sued Bright Data in January 2023, making claims of breach of contract and tortious interference with contract. Bright Data is an Israeli company that collects data from various websites and offers related products to businesses. “Bright Data concedes that it was bound to Meta’s Terms while it had Facebook and Instagram accounts, and that it sells data collected from Facebook and Instagram,” US District Judge Edward Chen wrote in a ruling issued Tuesday. “However, even viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the non-moving party (Meta)… the Facebook and Instagram Terms do not bar logged-off scraping of public data; perforce it does not prohibit the sale of such public data. Therefore, the Terms cannot bar Bright Data’s logged-off scraping activities.” # ⚓ Gizmodo ☛ 2024-01-24_[Older]_Amazon’s_Ring_App_Will No_Longer_Make_It_Easy_for_Cops_to_Get_Video_Footage⠀⇛ # ⚓ Engadget ☛ 2024-01-23_[Older]_France_fines_Amazon_$35 million_over_‘intrusive’_employee_surveillance⠀⇛ # ⚓ Gizmodo ☛ 2024-01-20_[Older]_Self-Checkout_on_the Outs,_Google_Search_Kind_of_Sucks,_and_More⠀⇛ o § Defence/Aggression⠀➾ # ⚓ RFA ☛ US_urges_China_to_push_Iran_to_pressure_Houthis_over Red_Sea_attacks⠀⇛ Biden’s national security adviser, Jake Sullivan, met with Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi in Bangkok. # ⚓ RFA ☛ US_national_security_advisor_meeting_Chinese_foreign minister_in_Bangkok⠀⇛ The meeting stresses Thailand’s strategic position as the middleman for the super powers, says expert. # ⚓ RFERL ☛ Biden_Adviser_Raised_Iran's_Support_For_Huthis_With China⠀⇛ U.S. national-security adviser Jake Sullivan pressed Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi to use his country's influence to help rein in Iran's support for Huthi rebels attacking Red Sea merchant vessels, according to a senior Biden administration official. # ⚓ RFERL ☛ Huthis'_TV_Says_U.S.,_British_Air_Strikes_Target Yemen_Port⠀⇛ The Huthis' Al-Masira television said on January 27 the United States and Britain launched two air strikes that targeted the port of Ras Issa, Yemen's main oil export terminal. # ⚓ JURIST ☛ Burkina_Faso_military_faces_scrutiny_for_drone strikes_on_civilian_targets⠀⇛ Human Rights Watch (HRW) released a report Thursday bringing attention to three military drone strikes conducted by Burkina Faso’s government, reportedly targeting Islamist fighters. # ⚓ CS Monitor ☛ ‘We_decide’:_Netanyahu_pushes_back_on_UN ruling_as_war_in_Gaza_beats_on⠀⇛ Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that Israel will “act according to what is required for our security” after the International Court of Justice’s order to limit death and destruction in Gaza. # ⚓ France24 ☛ Western_countries_mull_funding_for_UN_agency_in Gaza⠀⇛ Several key donor countries to UNRWA, the UN’s agency for Palestinian refugees, said they would suspend their funding following accusations by Israel that a dozen of its employees were involved in Hamas's October 7 attack.

The main thing we do each year is a hackathon. This year, I was designated "lead organizer." If you aren't familiar, hackathons are kind of like case competitions for software engineers. I'd say "computer nerds" but I feel like demoparties are case competitions for computer nerds. Hackathons feel much more squarely like case competitions for software engineers. More specifically, a hackathon is a competition, usually one to a few consecutive days, where a small team develops a prototype for some computer-adjacent project and pitches it to a panel of judges, often working overnight, and usually being fed really awful pizza by a group of people who scantly know what they're doing 90% of the time. You know that stereotype of the 1980s software engineer working themself to death over some random thing and eating an ungodly amount of cheap pizza? It's kind of like a reification of that stereotype, packaged in a conference centre, with the promise that maybe you'll get compensated. # § Technology and Free Software⠀➾ # ⚓ Twelve_months_of_Bivvy_-_Month_1⠀⇛ At the end of last year, I set some goals to motivate myself to get out more, deciding to spend at least one night each month in a bivvy bag throughout the year.

There are non-zero odds that a bad hand will be dealt, but what are those odds, and how bad could a bad hand be? The problem here is that a bad hand will depend on the context. A typical bad hand might be when, say, your robot is facing a cell of sudden doom (cliff, crusher, etc), and you are only dealt move forward cards. With arbitrarily nine move forward cards in a deck of 27, and dealing five cards to a hand that's (if my math is right) 9/27 * 8/26 * 7/25 * 6/24 * 5/23 or pretty low odds of only move forwards. # § Internet/Gemini⠀➾ # ⚓ One_Year_Later:_Surveying_the_Options_Post- Twitter⠀⇛ Like a lot of people on Twitter at the time, I watched the transfer of ownership to Elon Musk play out like two aircraft carriers on an unalterable collision course. He made a crazy offer for $44B, which they said they'd accept; then he said was was just a joke, lol and lmao; then they dragged it to court; and then, likely knowing there was no way he'd win, he gave in. # ⚓ Lagrange_crashes_when_fed_binary_file_as index.gmi⠀⇛ Previously there was a question here, because I had no idea what was going on and I though it had something to do with localhost vs remote hosts. I was wrong. =============================================================================== * Gemini_(Primer) links can be opened using Gemini_software.

But one thing remained constant: checkboxes were square. Why square? Because that’s how you can tell them from radio buttons: [...] o ⚓ James G ☛ The_indie_web⠀⇛ Herein lies a question: How does one join the indie web? What about the IndieWeb? The answer to both is the same: start a personal website! The IndieWeb community is here to help, as is the broader indie web community that you can find across the web. o ⚓ Thorsten Ball ☛ 63_Unpopular_Opinions⠀⇛ What follows is a a dump of thoughts, of unpopular opinions, that only makes sense as a dump. (A fish stew.) Take the dump apart and it’s throwaway thoughts. Don’t take them too seriously. Except the ones I hid in there on purpose. o ⚓ Michal Zelazny ☛ Silence_and_space⠀⇛ Some time ago in another blog posts I touched briefly my life philosophy. I mentioned “going lightly” in context of being always ready to go. But that’s not all at all. It’s something very important for me, very precious to my heart. It also has a wide meaning which can be sorted into three categories: people, things and experiences. It doesn’t mean I treat people equally to things, it just means that in all areas of my life, both mundane and ideological I use the same approach. I like to think it makes me internally consistent. o ⚓ Elliot C Smith ☛ Edits_and_Egos⠀⇛ Almost everyone will find something to mention if you ask for a review. They don’t want to seem silly. You also have full license to ignore any suggestions you receive. Including those in this post. o ⚓ New York Times ☛ Why_Millennials_Are_Declaring_Themselves Obsolete⠀⇛ The largest living generation in America peers into the abyss of middle age. Are we really worried, or is it just a shtick? o § Science⠀➾ # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ There's_a_Surprisingly_Simple_Reason_Why Some_Kids_Learn_to_Talk_Earlier⠀⇛ It's not all genetic. # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ World_First_Partial_Heart_Transplant_Is Growing_With_a_Baby⠀⇛ "Expected to last a lifetime." # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ One_Protein_Helps_75%_of_Cancers_to_Spread –_And_We_May_Have_a_Way_to_Stop_It⠀⇛ "We are very excited." # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ 'Landmark_Discovery':_Hubble_Detects_Water Vapor_in_Smallest_Exoplanet_to_Date⠀⇛ 97 light-years away. # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ Dark-Age_Skeletons_Uncovered_With_Buckets on_Their_Feet_And_Rings_Around_Their_Necks⠀⇛ What were they trying to stop? # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ Japan's_Moon_Lander_Sends_Home_Bittersweet Image_of_Its_Current_View⠀⇛ It looks lonely out there. o § Hardware⠀➾ # ⚓ Dan Langille ☛ r730-03⠀⇛ This is the Dell R730 host known as r730-03. # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ No_Dish?_Try_A_Portable_Weave_Helix_Antenna⠀⇛ When you think of satellite communications, you probably think of a dish. But that’s not the only option — a new device from the American University of Beruit and Stanford created a portable antenna made of woven materials that packs easily, weighs little, and can reconfigure for ground-to-space or ground-to-ground communications. The antenna reminded us of a finger trap and you can see it for yourself in the video below. # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ 3D_Printed_RC_Kart_Actually_Made_Entirely_By Hand⠀⇛ If we told you somebody built a 3D printed go-kart, you’d expect to see a certain sequence of events. A bit of work in CAD, a printer montage, then some assembly. That’s not the case here. [3D Sanago] is an artist that works with 3D printing pens, creating 3D objects entirely by hand. It’s an impressive skill, all the more so when it’s used to build something functional like this gorgeous little go-kart. # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Lorenz_Attractor_Analog_Computer_With_Octave Simulation⠀⇛ [Janis Alnis] wanted to build an analog computer circuit and bought some multiplier chips. The first attempt used apparently fake chips that were prone to overheating. He was able to get it to work and also walked through some Octave (a system similar to Matlab) simulations for the circuit. You can follow along in the video below. # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Getting_Started_With_USB-C_And_Common_Pitfalls With_Charging_And_Data_Transfer⠀⇛ USB-C is one of those things that generally everyone seems to agree on that it is a ‘good thing’, but is it really? In this first part of a series on USB-C, [Andreas Spiess] takes us through the theory of USB-C and USB Power Delivery (PD), as well as data transfer with USB-C cables. Even ignoring the obvious conclusion that with USB-C USB should now actually be called the ‘Universal Parallel Bus’ on account of its two pairs of differential data lines, there’s quite a bit of theory and associated implementation details involved. # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Bringing_An_IBM_Butterfly_Laptop_Back_From_The Dead⠀⇛ Among all the laptops produced over the last few decades, there is one which rises above the rest and which has retained an appeal long after its meager computing resources became obsolete. It’s the IBM 701c, the famous “Butterfly” laptop, whose fold-out keyboard still gives it star  quality, and [John Graham-Cumming] has documented the restoration of one from the tattered remains of two scrap examples. # ⚓ Tom's Hardware ☛ Chip_smuggling_operation_that_sent_53,000 banned_American_chips_to_China_gets_busted_—_$12_million worth_of_chips_funneled_through_South_Korean_company⠀⇛ A smuggling operation carried out by the unnamed South Korean 'Company A' involved 53,000 chips worth nearly $12 million. # ⚓ RFA ☛ Chinese_Communist_Party_continues_crackdown_on_LGBTQ+ people⠀⇛ Beijing leads a nationwide clampdown on 'foreign ideologies,' amid growing abuse of queer and trans people. # ⚓ Hong Kong Free Press ☛ Hong_Kong_court_orders_embattled Chinese_property_giant_Evergrande_to_liquidate⠀⇛ By Holmes Chan and Xinqi Su A Hong Kong court on Monday issued the liquidation of battered Chinese property giant Evergrande after lawyers failed to convince a judge it had a working restructuring plan. o § Health/Nutrition/Agriculture⠀➾ # ⚓ Jacobin Magazine ☛ France’s_Tractor_Protesters_Have_Reason to_Be_Angry⠀⇛ Since last fall, farmers have rolled out their now- usual array of actions in small towns and villages around France: tractor processions, dumping manure in front of official buildings, “free shopping cart” actions, or throwing eggs at supermarkets accused of taking excessive profits. Yet national media gave these protests little coverage. While their interest was surely otherwise occupied, the fact that Paris was not affected by any demonstrations, coupled with a certain contempt for “yokels,” no doubt partly explains this lack of attention. # ⚓ Futurism ☛ Stanley_Admits_Its_TikTok-Famous_Mugs_Are_Made With_Lead_After_All⠀⇛ In the post, a user known as "Lead Safe Mama" claimed that she detected lead when checking for the toxic metal on the bottom of a Stanley Quencher, using a reactive agent that changes color when coming into contact with the heavy metal. # ⚓ JURIST ☛ France_government_abandons_plan_to_reduce_state subsidies_on_agricultural_diesel⠀⇛ The French government introduced a series of urgent measures on Friday that abandon its plan to reduce state subsidies on agricultural diesel. # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ Do_You_Live_in_a_'Blue_Zone'?_Here's_Why You_Might_Live_Longer_For_It⠀⇛ Longer and healthier lives. o § Proprietary/Artificial Intelligence (AI)⠀➾ # ⚓ Ian Betteridge ☛ The_information_grey_goo⠀⇛ I’m broadly positive about the future of LLMs and AI, but no one should pretend there will not be difficulties or that the transition to using machines isn’t going to pose plenty of challenges. Some scenarios, though, are profoundly dangerous, not just for the publishing and creative industries, but for society as a whole. When we discuss the threat of AI, many people imagine rampant machine intelligences with big guns hunting us all down in a post-apocalyptic wasteland (thank you, James Cameron). I doubt that’s likely. But one consequence which I can see use sleepwalking into is the informational equivalent of an apocalypse that dates back over thirty years: the “grey goo” scenario. # ⚓ Kevin C Tofel ☛ Logging_out_of_Chromebooks_for_a_while⠀⇛ Although it will cost me around $25 per month for hosting, I’ll leave the site up and running for a bit. There is still value there for those interested in Chromebooks and ChromeOS. However, I’ll likely shutter the comments. I don’t need reminding that the site couldn’t survive. # ⚓ Gabriel Simmer ☛ Porting_to_Workers⠀⇛ Choosing how to build this site on Workers was a bit tricky. My goal continues to be to overengineer what it ostensibly a static site for fun and negative profit. Thus, I completely ignored Cloudflare Pages. I wanted to keep a tiered caching strategy that I tried in the initial version of the Fly.io version, and it would be easier given I could leverage Cloudflare's caching systems. Ideally I want to regenerate pages from source when things change, but I also have to pay attention to how long it takes to execute a function when called. With Fly.io, I wanted fast page generation, but I didn't really care hold long it took since the CPU time wasn't limited in any way. Another limitation is that Workers don't really have a filesystem, so I'd have to leverage the various offerings available to store files. With Fly.io, I built the Docker image with the posts bundled in, which was great for speed but felt a little less than ideal since there was no clear separation between publishing a post and deploying changes to the backend. o § Security⠀➾ # § Privacy/Surveillance⠀➾ # ⚓ The Hill ☛ Ring_no_longer_allowing_police_to_request users’_doorbell_video_footage⠀⇛ Law enforcement agencies will still be able to access videos with a search warrant while Ring has the right to share footage without users’ permission in limited circumstances, The Associated Press reported. Amazon has paid millions of dollars to settle over alleged privacy violations involving the Ring doorbell since buying the California- based Ring in 2018. # ⚓ Associated Press ☛ Ring_will_no_longer_allow_police to_request_doorbell_camera_footage_from_users⠀⇛ The update is the latest restriction Ring has made to police activity on the Neighbors app following concerns raised by privacy watchdogs about the company’s relationship with police departments across the country. Critics have stressed the proliferation of these relationships – and users’ ability to report what they see as suspicious behavior - can change neighborhoods into a place of constant surveillance and lead to more instances of racial profiling. # ⚓ The Guardian UK ☛ Amazon_Ring_says_US_police_will_now need_warrant_to_access_user_footage⠀⇛ Amazon Ring will now require US law enforcement to obtain a warrant to access doorbell footage from individual users. The company announced in a blog post that it would no longer allow law enforcement to request doorbell footage directly from users in the company’s social networking app, Neighbors. The move is an about-face from Ring’s long-held and controversial policy that drew the ire of civil liberties and privacy advocates. # ⚓ NYOB ☛ Data_Protection_Day:_74%_of_experts_say_DPAs would_find_‘relevant_violations’_at_most_companies_-_if they_would_investigate_them⠀⇛ When the GDPR came into force in 2018, the new and shiny data protection law was hailed as a shift towards stricter enforcement – ensuring that in the EU, the fundamental right to data protection does not only exist on paper. To mark this year’s Data Protection Day on 28 January, noyb conducted a survey among more than 1000 data protection professionals working in European companies. This provided a unique view from the inside: 70% of respondents believe that authorities need to issue clear decisions and enforce the GDPR to ensure compliance, while 74% say that authorities would find ‘relevant violations’ if they would walk through the door of an average company. In an attempt to move towards “evidence-based enforcement”, this research also shows that authorities would need to fundamentally change their approach to enforcement to get businesses to comply. # ⚓ NYOB ☛ GDPR:_a_Culture_of_Non-Compliance?_Numbers_of evidence-based_enforcement_efforts [PDF]⠀⇛ 74.4% assume relevant violations at an average company. More than 1,000 pri- vacy professionals, largely working as data protection officers (DPOs) or internal compliance departments of large companies, answered our questionnaire. While the survey shows that at least awareness of privacy issues grew during the last five years, most companies still don’t comply with the GDPR. 74.4% of the respondents agree with the statement that “if a data protection authority (DPA) would walk through the door of an average company tomorrow, it would surely find relevant GDPR violations”. This is an extremely high percentage and indicates that privacy professionals still largely operate in a culture of non-compliance or merely partial compliance. These objective numbers match the experience of noyb and continuous anecdotal indications. # § Confidentiality⠀➾ # ⚓ Jan Schaumann ☛ Post-Quantum_Cryptography_in_January 2024⠀⇛ Government and industry consensus appears to be largely that "Q-Day" is still several years out, primarily because of the difficulty of creating quantum computers with stable qubits, although it seems rather difficult to get reasonable estimates on that. All estimates, however, appear to be dramatically falling, while practical capabilities are increasing. o § Defence/Aggression⠀➾ # ⚓ El País ☛ Inside_the_Facebook_profile_of_a_migrant smuggler⠀⇛ Three members of the Northeast Cartel have pled guilty to human trafficking on the border between Mexico and the United States. The case has shone a light on how criminals recruit clients and victims via social media # ⚓ Rolling Stone ☛ Trump’s_Hometown_Shock_Troops_Are_Raring For_a_Fight⠀⇛ Wax’s speech made one thing clear: If there are still any pundits or patsies holding out hope for a return to the mythical era of cordial conservatism that ruled Republican politics the last time the NYYRC had any sort of juice, they can give up now. The current incarnation of the club is all-out MAGA-minded, and the leadership is determined to make their group a talent incubator for prospective staffers of future far-right politicians long after Trump’s sun has finally set. They’re hardly kingmakers at the moment — the biggest political job one of the club’s top dogs has held is a nebulous gig for George Santos, the instantly- disgraced ex-congressman. But they are beginning to boast connections to dozens of boldface names in the MAGA movement, from controversial congressmen like Gaetz to shadowy advisers like Bannon, who have both spoken at past NYYRC events — and now, they’ve finally had a visit from the emperor himself. They’ve gotten here by running the Trump playbook: start fights, grab headlines, and make a whole lot of noise. But the brand of politics they’re espousing is dark, even by Trumpist standards. Tilt your head one way, and guys like Wax are just tiny, squeaky wheels in a vast political machine. Tilt it the other, and they could very well be the GOP’s amped-up, authoritarian-friendly future. # ⚓ Deutsche Welle ☛ Israel-Hamas_war:_Germany_joins_states pausing_UNRWA_funding⠀⇛ The UN said it is investigating allegations from Israel that around a dozen UNRWA staff members were involved in the terror attack staged by the Hamas militant group that resulted in the deaths of more than 1,100 people and the kidnapping of 240 more. UNRWA employs around 13,000 people in Gaza. Guterres confirmed that of the 12 employees cited in the allegations, nine had been fired, one was dead, and the identity of the two others was being clarified. He vowed that "any UN employee involved in acts of terror will be held accountable, including through criminal prosecution." # ⚓ The Straits Times ☛ North_Korea_tests_submarine-launched cruise_missile,_KCNA_says⠀⇛ Leader Kim Jong Un called the test a success. # ⚓ The Straits Times ☛ Australia's_resources_minister_seeks investment_from_S.Korea,_Japan⠀⇛ Australia's resources minister has begun a week long trip to South Korea and Japan to discuss gas exports and critical minerals opportunities, as its government on Monday released a "prospectus" of 52 investment ready critical minerals projects. # ⚓ teleSUR ☛ North_Korea_Launches_Cruise_Missiles_From_its East_Coast⠀⇛ North Korea's government has ramped up weapons tests in recent weeks, including the launches of a purported “underwater nuclear weapon system”. # ⚓ RFA ☛ Kim_Jong_Un’s_sister_‘not_to_be_underestimated,’ author_says⠀⇛ The world will soon be seeing a lot more of Kim Yo Jong, according to a new book about her. # ⚓ RFA ☛ Kim_Jong_Un_boosts_underwater_nuclear_threat,_urges fast_submarine_build⠀⇛ Current and future threats spur need for N Korea to defend maritime sovereignty, says leader Kim. # ⚓ JURIST ☛ Denmark_report_reveals_‘systematic_illegal behavior’_in_past_adoptions_of_South_Korean_children⠀⇛ Denmark’s Ministry of Social of Social affairs has released a report revealing that adoptions of South Korean children were subject to “systemic illegal behavior” on the part of South Korea. The report focused on the period between January 1, 1970 and December 31, 1989 and was released on Thursday. # ⚓ France24 ☛ North_Korea_fires_cruise_missiles_into_Sea_of Japan⠀⇛ North Korea fired several cruise missiles on Sunday, Seoul's military said, the latest in a series of tension-raising moves by the nuclear- armed state. # ⚓ France24 ☛ North_Korea_says_leader_Kim_oversaw_test_of submarine-launched_cruise_missiles⠀⇛ North Korean leader Kim Jong Un oversaw the test launch of a new strategic cruise missile from a submarine, state media said Monday, the latest tension-raising move by the nuclear-armed state. # ⚓ The Straits Times ☛ Sarawak_premier_urges_opposition_to stop_undercutting_Malaysian_PM_Anwar⠀⇛ Tan Sri Abang Johari Openg said the country needs political stability to focus on pressing economic challenges. # ⚓ The Straits Times ☛ Malaysia’s_ex-finance_minister_charged with_failure_to_declare_assets⠀⇛ The 85-year-old, who served as finance minister twice between 1984 and 2001, pleaded not guilty. # ⚓ The Straits Times ☛ ST_Picks:_Fine_wine,_Made_in_China⠀⇛ # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Two_Masked_Attackers_Kill_1_in_Shooting_at Istanbul_Church⠀⇛ The Islamic State has taken responsibility for the attack, according to the SITE intelligence group. # § Russia, Belarus, and War in Ukraine⠀➾ # ⚓ Meduza ☛ Apartment_building_in_Russia’s_Rostov-on- Don,_declared_hazardous_in_2020,_partially_collapses_— Meduza⠀⇛ # ⚓ Meduza ☛ Fire_breaks_out_at_Moscow_Satire_Theater_— Meduza⠀⇛ # ⚓ Meduza ☛ ‘A_very_kind_boy’:_Two_Russian_convicts_and likely_ex-Wagner_fighters_sought_in_connection_with rape_and_robbery_—_Meduza⠀⇛ # ⚓ Meduza ☛ Russian_authorities’_harsh_reaction_to ‘almost_naked’_party_reportedly_sparked_by_filmmaker Nikita_Mikhalkov’s_comments_to_Putin_about_event_— Meduza⠀⇛ o § Transparency/Investigative Reporting⠀➾ # ⚓ The Scotsman ☛ Humza_Yousaf_urged_to_order_ministerial_code probe_into_himself_over_Whatsapp_scandal⠀⇛ Appearing at the Inquiry, Mr Yousaf was shown a table provided by the Scottish Government, which said he “deleted all messages after a month for cybersecurity purposes as per their understanding of the Scottish Government mobile messaging apps usage and policy”. o § Environment⠀➾ # ⚓ Modern Diplomacy ☛ How_viable_is_Arctic_shipping?⠀⇛ The volume of trade passing through the Panama Canal, which connects the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, has declined by 30% since November, after severe drought hit its reservoirs, lowering the water level. The spot rate for sending a 40-foot container from China to northern Europe has risen by 283% since early-December, according to figures from Freightos, an online freight marketplace. # ⚓ France24 ☛ Climate_activists_hurl_soup_at_the_Mona_Lisa_at the_Louvre_Museum_in_Paris⠀⇛ Two protesters from a climate and agricultural NGO hurled soup onto the bulletproof glass protecting Leonardo da Vinci's "Mona Lisa" painting in Paris, demanding the right to "healthy and sustainable food". # § Energy/Transportation⠀➾ # ⚓ YLE ☛ Glitch_in_Finnish-Estonian_electrical_cable "probably_not_caused_by_external_factor"⠀⇛ Fingrid detected a malfunction in the underwater cable early Friday, following damage to a similar cable last October. # ⚓ CoryDoctorow ☛ Solar_is_a_market_for_(financial) lemons⠀⇛ Rooftop solar is the future, but it's also a scam. It didn't have to be, but America decided that the best way to roll out distributed, resilient, clean and renewable energy was to let Wall Street run the show. They turned it into a scam, and now it's in terrible trouble. which means we are in terrible trouble. # ⚓ Jamie Zawinski ☛ "Driverless"_cars_always_have_a driver⠀⇛ Tonight I was chatting with an old acquaintance who now works for one of these murderbot companies (the conversation was... fraught) and they told me that it was commonly known amongst their staff that SFPD is well aware that every vehicle has a responsible party, but they pretend not to know, because it sounds complicated and annoying to deal with. o § Finance⠀➾ # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Real_Estate_Giant_China_Evergrande_Will_Be Liquidated⠀⇛ After multiple delays and even a few faint glimmers of hope, a Hong Kong court has sounded the death knell for what was once China’s biggest real estate firm. o § AstroTurf/Lobbying/Politics⠀➾ # ⚓ Dan Q ☛ Automattic_Shakeup⠀⇛ My employer Automattic‘s having a bit of a reorganisation. For unrelated reasons, this coincides with my superteam having a bit of a reorganisation, too, and I’m going to be on a different team next week than I’ve been on for most of the 4+ years I’ve been there. Together, these factors mean that I have even less idea than usual what I do for a living, right now. # ⚓ Silicon Angle ☛ Biden_Administration_to_implement_new_AI regulations_on_tech_companies⠀⇛ The new requirement would give the government access to sensitive programs at companies such as OpenAI, Google LLC, Amazon Web Services Inc. and other companies with artificial intelligence programs. As part of the requirement, companies must also undertake safety testing on any new AI creations. # ⚓ Wired ☛ OpenAI_and_Other_Tech_Giants_Will_Have_to_Warn_the US_Government_When_They_Start_New_AI_Projects⠀⇛ "We're using the Defense Production Act, which is authority that we have because of the president, to do a survey requiring companies to share with us every time they train a new large language model, and share with us the results—the safety data—so we can review it,” Gina Raimondo, US secretary of commerce, said Friday at an event held at Stanford University’s Hoover Institution. She did not say when the requirement will take effect or what action the government might take on the information it received about AI projects. More details are expected to be announced next week. # ⚓ NPR ☛ Nearly_25,000_tech_workers_were_laid_off_in_the_first weeks_of_2024._Why_is_that?⠀⇛ Last year was, by all accounts, a bloodbath for the tech industry, with more than 260,000 jobs vanishing — the worst 12 months for Silicon Valley since the dot-com crash of the early 2000s. # ⚓ Tech Central (South Africa) ☛ Intel’s_nightmare_quarter⠀⇛ The chip maker was set to lose about US$25-billion in market value, if premarket losses hold, based on its share price of $43.65. Its stock had soared 90% in 2023. # ⚓ Futurism ☛ As_AI_Destroys_Search_Results,_Google_Fires Workers_in_Charge_of_Improving_It⠀⇛ As Vice reports, news of the company ending its contract with Appen — a data training firm that employs thousands of poorly paid gig workers in developing countries to maintain, among other things, Google's search algorithm — coincidentally comes a week after a new study found that the quality of its search engine's results has indeed gotten much worse in recent years. Back in late 2022, journalist Cory Doctorow coined the term "enshittification" to refer to the demonstrable worsening of all manner of online tools, which he said was by design as tech giants seek to extract more and more money out of their user bases. Google Search was chief among the writer's examples of the enshittification effect in a Wired article published last January, and as the new study out of Germany found, that effect can be measured. With CEOs' short-sighted AI gold rush claiming ever more jobs, the termination of the Appen contract is particularly harsh not only because of how crappy Google Search has gotten, but also because of how crappy things were and are for people who work for the Australia-based AI training firm. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ On_Donald_Trump,_E._Jean_Carroll_and_the Limits_of_Libel_Law⠀⇛ Incentives to serve up lies for politics or profit are so strong that libel damage awards and settlements may not meaningfully change behaviors. # § Misinformation/Disinformation/Propaganda⠀➾ # ⚓ VOA News ☛ Taiwan_Offers_Lessons_in_How_to_Defeat Disinformation⠀⇛ Worries that China would use disinformation to undermine the integrity of Taiwan's vote dogged the recent election. In repelling disinformation, Chinese and domestic, Taiwan offers an example to other democracies holding elections this year. o § Censorship/Free Speech⠀➾ # ⚓ Hong Kong Free Press ☛ Censorship,_AI,_disinformation,_and repression_undermine_Asian_elections_in_2024⠀⇛ Internet restrictions, AI-driven disinformation, and mass arrests have intensified ahead of major elections across Asia. These attacks undermine freedom of expression at a time when elections are supposed to restore or strengthen democratic rule and counter authoritarianism in the region. In 2023, several laws and regulations were updated in the region and eventually used as tools of censorship during election periods. o § Civil Rights/Policing⠀➾ # ⚓ Tom MacWright ☛ Work_hard_and_take_everything_really seriously⠀⇛ In the short form, it’s hard to take a stance and not get grouped into either extreme. It’s also hard not to feel baited by someone who’s engagement- farming their social media presence by using time- tested bait questions. o § Internet Policy/Net Neutrality⠀➾ # ⚓ ICANN ☛ Proposed_Top-Level_Domain_String_for_Private_Use⠀⇛ ICANN org will consider all comments submitted during this Public Comment proceeding. Based on the comments, it may update its evaluation on the identified candidate string. The outcome of the Public Comment proceeding will be provided to the ICANN Board for consideration to reserve the string or take alternate action. # ⚓ APNIC ☛ A_hop_away_from_everywhere_—_long-haul_links_in today’s_Internet⠀⇛ Intercontinental Internet communications lie on top of a complex network of submarine cables forming its global communication backbone. As part of ongoing work focused on the criticality of the submarine cable network, fellow researchers from Northwestern University and the University of Wisconsin-Madison and I mapped traceroute measurements to submarine cables as a first step towards understanding its potential vulnerabilities. # ⚓ [Old] ACM ☛ Untangling_the_world-wide_mesh_of_undersea cables⠀⇛ The growth of global Internet traffic has driven an exponential expansion of the submarine cable network, both in terms of the sheer number of links and its total capacity. Today, a complex mesh of hundreds of cables, stretching over 1 million kilometers, connects nearly every corner of the earth and is instrumental in closing the remaining connectivity gaps. Despite the scale and critical role of the submarine network for both business and society at large, our community has mostly ignored it, treating it as a black box in most Internet studies, from connectivity to inter-domain traffic and reliability. We make the case for a new research agenda focused on characterizing the global submarine network and the critical role it plays as a basic component of any inter-continental end-to-end connection. o § Digital Restrictions (DRM)⠀➾ # ⚓ The Verge ☛ Netflix_is_different_now_—_and_there’s_no_going back⠀⇛ Netflix has only continued to push the envelope with another price hike last fall (its third in three years). It also stopped letting subscribers sign up for its cheapest, $11.99 per month ad-free plan. It’s now moving to get rid of the plan completely for those who already signed up as part of its attempt to push users toward its $6.99 per month ad-supported plan or its $15.49 per month standard tier. § Monopolies/Monopsonies⠀➾ o ⚓ R J Faas ☛ Apple’s_DMA_response_exposes_some_hidden_costs_and upsets_folks_because_they_didn’t_get_what_they_expected⠀⇛ A lot of ink has already been spilled over Apple’s announcement of how it intends to respond to Europe’s Digital Markets Act. I don’t want to reiterate many of the points others have made but I do have a few thoughts. d o § Patents⠀➾ # ⚓ YLE ☛ Patent_applications_hit_10-year_high_in_Finland⠀⇛ The sector accounting for the biggest volume of applications was electrical engineering. Within this category, there were 281 applications for digital communication inventions, followed by 106 for computer technology and 92 labelled as telecommunications. o § Trademarks⠀➾ # § Right of Publicity⠀➾ # ⚓ The Age AU ☛ X_enforces_Taylor_Swift_search_ban_after deepfake_pornography_floods_social_media⠀⇛ When searching for the singer’s name on the site, an error message reads: “Something went wrong.
