There are numerous false_accusations_about_relationships_with_interns_in_the Google_Summer_of_Code_and_Outreachy. One of the fundamental flaws with these rumors is that the victim of these Debian smear campaigns didn't attend the DebConf18 in Taiwan or the infamous DebConf19 in Brazil. The last DebConf attended by Mr Pocock was DebConf17 in Montreal, Canada. The DebConf Open Day was on a Saturday. Despite having flown all the way from Europe, Mr Pocock volunteered to give two separate talks in the special DebConf_Open_Day_schedule. At 10am, Mr Pocock gave a presentation about Business_ERP,_freelancer_and personal_accounting_with_Free_Software_(video). Mr Pocock has created the dedicated web site debian.finance to examine more of his authorship in this part of Debian. At 2:30pm, Mr Pocock gave a presentation about Free_Communications_with_Free Software_and_Debian_(video). Mr Pocock has created the dedicated web sites debian.chat and debian.video to examine more of his authorship in this part of Debian. Overall, Mr Pocock spent 10 days in Montreal for the conference and was responsible_for_five_different_talks_and_workshops. Debian ringleaders have never compensated Mr Pocock for the time he has spent preparing talks and organizing events over several decades since the 1990s. Upon leaving Montreal Mr Pocock stopped at a bookshop in the airport departure lounge. These are the two books he purchased: Fahrenheit_451 is a story of firemen who start fires to burn books. The storyline is made interesting by the fireman's neighbor, Clarisse McClellan, who refuses to follow the Code of Conduct. The state behaves a lot like the Debian Community Team or the WIPO censorship panels who shut down web sites. The other book purchased by Mr Pocock was How_Can_I_Help?:_A_Week_in_My_Life_as a_Psychiatrist by Canadian psychiatrists David Goldbloom and Pier Bryden. The stories of patients have been anonymized. Mr Pocock has supported a number of colleagues and friends who confided in him about such challenges in their lives. It is important to remember that while the doctors only see each patient for no more than an hour per week, their family members and friends support them seven days per week, often without any recognition or thanks from their wider family and peers. In the book, the lead character suffers from bi-polar disorder, the same disease which afflicted the_late_Debian_Developer_Lucy Wayland. The book follows this particular patient closely. It is uncanny how Mr Pocock's choice of books and their endings in particular anticipated many of the problems that have subsequently occurred in the creation of Debian and related free software products. █ 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇Daniel Pocock, Alexandre Lision, Sebastian, Dorina Mosku, Jami, Savoir-Faire Linux, Montreal, Canada, DebConf17, Debian⦈ ⢠⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠄⠀⢠⣄⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⠀⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⠀⣤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠒⠳⠐⠀⢒⠀⠀⠀⢸⢀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⢼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⣠⣿⣀⣶⣷⣦⣧⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠸⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⣰⠁⢹⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⢀⣀⣄⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠾⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⡤⠀⡀⠀⠀⢸⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠉⠙⢛⣫⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⣏⢛⠛⣿⡟⢙⡛⠊⠉⠀⠀⢸⢾⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠛⠛⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⢈⣷⣿⣷⠓⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠁⣾⣽⢍⡄⠀⠀⢸⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⢀⣤⡀⠀⢹⣿⣿⡏⣠⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⣠⣾⣿⣿⣗⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣠⣽⣿⣸⣀⡀⠀⢸⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⢰⢤⣿⣿⣿⠃⡟⣶⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣾⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣉⣩⣿⣿⣿⣿⣤⣠⣎⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣋⣿⠸⢰⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣄⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠩⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣸⣿⣿⣿⠿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣼⡏⢠⣉⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⡏⠹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡘⢱⣩⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⠛⠋⠉⠉⠉⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⡇⠊⢳⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⢻⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⡉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⢻⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡼⢿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠘⢿⣷⣤⢀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⡀⡈⢅⣤⣯⠉⠉⢉⣭⠉⠉⠉⠋⡜⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠛⠉⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠡⠟⠉⠀⢀⣆⠀⠁⠀⢀⣼⡆⠀⠾⠋⣉⣩⡉⠙⠛⠛⠋⠀⠀⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⡄ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣀⣒⣒⣲⣀⣒⣐⢪⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢐⣗⣖⣶⣰⣖⠂⠒⠀⠀⠀⠐⠃⠋⠈⠁⠀⠮⠽⣥⢛⢥⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣏⡀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⡇ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⣾⣯⣽⣟⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⡇ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⡿⢿⠿⢿⣿⢟⠿⠀⠀⠀⠀⡇ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⡱⡽⣿⣶⣬⣾⠧⠀⢠⣤⡤⡇ ⠰⡶⠀⠴⠀⠠⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠿⠿⠿⠿⠤⠤⠤⠤⠷⠾⠿⠿⠧⠤⠴⠤⠬⠭⠭⠇ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 245 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://news.techrights.org/n/2024/03/23/IRC_Proceedings_Friday_March_22_2024.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.techrights.org/n/2024/03/23/IRC_Proceedings_Friday_March_22_2024.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ IRC Proceedings: Friday, March 22, 2024⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Mar 23, 2024 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Globe_Earth⦈_ 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇GN 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇GNOME_Gedit⦈_ #techrights_log #boycottnovell_log 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇GN 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇GNOME_Gedit⦈_ #boycottnovell-social_log #techbytes_log =============================================================================== The corresponding text-only bulletins for_Tux_Machines and for_Techrights contain all the text.

Quite a bit of this has been written before, but I hope some of you will bear with me. [snip] So, what has made me decide to leave the project. It's a combination of just plain emotional stress over the whole Sven Luther issue, frustration with the inability of the project to deal with that and with some other issues, and frustration with the fact that a fair number of members of the project seem to feel that as long as you don't upload packages with trojans, pretty much anything is OK. § Frans doesn't want to be Ubuntu's slave⠀➾ Marc Haber objects to being an Ubuntu slave. That point appears to resonate with Frans Pop.

So you'd prefer inter-developer issues to not be discussed at all? I find this an extremely inappropriate comment for a DPL. § Frans says goodbye the night before Debian Day⠀➾ Subject: Resignation Date: Sun, 15 Aug 2010 21:41:18 +0200 From: Frans Pop To: debian-private@lists.debian.org It's time to say goodbye. I don't want to say too much about it, except that I've been planning this for a long time. Participating in Debian has been great. For personal reasons I will be revoking my GPG key. However, it is not compromised and the validity of this mail can still be verified using my public key from current keyring packages. My resignation means that the following three packages will need a new maintainer: - debtree - debmirror - qcontrol (tbm?) It also means the following tasks will need a successor: - editor and release manager for the Installation Guide - daily D-I builds for s390 - Dutch translator for website and various debconf/program translations All mails I ever sent to d-private (and mails quoting them) shall remain private.

This morning, I've just received an email from the parents of Frans Pop telling me that he died yesterday. "Yesterday morning our son Frans Pop has died. He took his own life, in a well-considered, courageous, and considerate manner. During the last years his main concern was his work for Debian. I would like to ask you to inform those members of the Debian community who knew him well." I promised them that I would pass on the news, so here it is. Frans worked hard in Debian for a number of years, and I know that all of those people who worked with him will feel a great loss today. We've lost a good colleague and good friend. I, for one, will miss him greatly. -- Steve McIntyre, Cambridge, UK. steve@einval.com You raise the blade, you make the change...

This is probably the wrong thread for linguistics, but that phrase would normally just indicate that Debian was his main interest. In http://oxforddictionaries.com/view/entry/m_en_gb0169810 under "noun", this would be sense 2 rather than sense 1. -- Colin Watson [cjwatson@debian.org]

Oddity and humour are just my brands when it comes to old school games. Oh, yeah, and also killing player characters. I have a reputation for that as well, but apparently not in a negative way because players keep coming back to my table again and again. # ⚓ Moving_fossils⠀⇛ Last weekend I moved my fossil repositories from the VPS to the RPi. It was not even very difficult, I only ran into one issue that turned out to be a non-issue. Paying attention to what you are doing certainly helps... First I copied all the fossil files from the /srv/ museum directory (fossils belong in museums) to my home laptop as a backup. Then copied them to the Pi. # § Internet/Gemini⠀➾ # ⚓ Microsofter:_What_Gemini_Gets_Wrong_With_Anti- Extensibility⠀⇛ This author makes a great point about Gemini's solution to anti-extensibility, which is more restrictive in order to prevent future extensibility. What Gemini gets wrong is that this was not completely necessary, and that Gemini wasn't completely successful in restricting extensibility in the way that it intended, although it has hampered it a little. The biggest hamper seems to be mainly the community and not necessarily the protocol itself. # ⚓ It's_3_Germinal,_year_232.⠀⇛ Day of Asparagus in the rural calendar; I'm writing this at decimal time 5:77. It's been about six months since my last gemlog entry. I tend to go through phases where greater intensity at work leads me to avoid spending too much effort on the personal computer. The last three or four months have been especially intense. # ⚓ "Hello_World"_sunrise_in_Cyber_City⠀⇛ # § Programming⠀➾ # ⚓ Re:_C_Arrays⠀⇛ If you don’t mind using C99 VLA constructs, you can write like this: [...] =============================================================================== * Gemini_(Primer) links can be opened using Gemini_software.

He then resold all of the stolen merchandise on Kijiji, taking payments in cash or e-transfers. The article doesn't say how police discovered the stolen goods or the perpetrator. However, in late January, Beltrano was arrested by Winnipeg police and charged with an assortment of crimes appropriate to the amount of merchandise he stole, including changes for theft of over $5,000 and under $5,000. o ⚓ Riccardo Mori ☛ People_and_resources_added_to_my_reading_list_in 2023⠀⇛ This is the eleventh edition of my annual overview of the most interesting discoveries made during the previous year, whether it’s been a blog worth reading, a creator on YouTube worth following, or a cool website/resource. As a tradition, this overview used to be published every January, mostly as a sort of last look in the rearview mirror at the closing year before moving on to the new one. This time I’m breaking the pattern, and publishing this towards the end of March, instead. My schedule is a bit off due to reasons I explained in my previous update, but at the same time I have to say that 2023 was a strange year overall. I’ve often mentioned this low tide brought up by a general feeling of ‘tech fatigue’; as a consequence, last year my interest in adding technology- related sources to my reads was rather low. I even neglected to stay up-to-date with the people and blogs I was already following. o ⚓ Nicolas Magand ☛ Changing_my_mind,_all_the_time⠀⇛ In short, I came very close to rendering this draft obsolete even before it was finished. That should teach me not to let drafts linger for too long in the “Ideas” folder. And remember, this post may or may not already be outdated. o ⚓ Mike Haynes ☛ How_to_read_comics_in_2024⠀⇛ Over the years, I’ve complained about how difficult it is for newcomers to get into comics but never, until now, offered my own advice on how I’d do it today. As a disclaimer, these are my own suggestions, they worked for me 15 years ago, maybe they’ll help you if you’re looking to get into comic books in 2024. o ⚓ Kev Quirk ☛ New_Layout⠀⇛ My first attempt at implementing a sidebar was pretty much exactly the same as the mock-up above. It was sticky, so stayed on-screen at all times, but the result of this was that the content felt cramped as I scrolled down a page's content. o ⚓ Dan Q ☛ Home_Page,_50%_Off!⠀⇛ In August, I celebrated my blog – with its homepage weighing-in at a total of just 481kb – being admitted to Kev Quirk‘s 512kb club. 512kb club celebrates websites (often personal sites) whose homepage are neither “ultra minimal” or “link pages” but have a total size, including all assets, of under half a megabyte. It’s about making a commitment to a leaner, more-efficient Web. My relatively-heavyweight homepage only just slipped in under the line. But, feeling inspired perhaps by some performance enhancements I’ve been planning this week at work, I decided to try to shave a little more off: [...] o ⚓ Andreas ☛ 82MHz⠀⇛ They haven’t been available on Spotify or on CD for a long time, but now finally they’re being reissued in form of a remastered box set, and I couldn’t be happier to finally see these albums being given the respect and love they deserve. o ⚓ Manuel Moreale ☛ P&B:_Taylor_Troesh⠀⇛ This is the 30th edition of People and Blogs, the series where I ask interesting people to talk about themselves and their blogs.

I also publish mostly for myself—a public archive for future me. But if what I publish just happens to connect with one other person, I’m glad. So, yeah, it’s true that the world doesn’t need you to write and share and publish. Isn’t that liberating? You’re free to write and share and publish for yourself. o ⚓ [Old] Zettlekasten ☛ The_Collector’s_Fallacy⠀⇛ There’s a tendency in all of us to gather useful stuff and feel good about it. To collect is a reward in itself. As knowledge workers, we’re inclined to look for the next groundbreaking thought, for intellectual stimulation: we pile up promising books and articles, and we store half the [Internet] as bookmarks, just so we get the feeling of being on the cutting edge. o § Science⠀➾ # ⚓ New Yorker ☛ Is_Science_Fiction_the_New_Realism?⠀⇛ In an era of life-altering pandemics, advanced A.I., and climate catastrophe, anticipating the future can seem like a futile exercise.

The young boy was separated from his family when he ran from the terrorist group on foot. # ⚓ Luke Harris ☛ The_Job_Search_Begins⠀⇛ Resume writing is hard. The sky is blue. The day ends in the letter y. But why? I started rewriting the whole thing for a single position and ended up spending over a day and a half on an empty page. Writing a summary of my experience as it pertained to a job title was excruciating. It should be broad, it is a summary after all. But it should also be specific. Put in those little details. And the years! Don’t forget the years you spent grinding away. Thinking about them is a great way to send the positive outlook you mustered this morning scurrying into the lake. # ⚓ Press Gazette ☛ FT_US_pay_talks_stall_as_union_demands $260,000_investment⠀⇛ Journalists on the FT in the US are in dispute with management after seeking salary rises averaging just over $4,000 to cover the higher cost of living than UK counterparts. FT US Guild argues cost of living differences between the UK and US mean their overall remuneration is both lower than their London counterparts and uncompetitive compared with other US newsrooms. It has asked for a one-time additional salary increase for its members, many of whom work at the New York office. Currently- advertised reporter salaries for FT journalists in the US start in the $71,000 to $75,000 range. The dispute highlights a broader challenge for UK media titles seeking to expand in the US where pay levels for journalism jobs are far higher than the UK. # ⚓ Crooked Timber ☛ On_Academic_Freedom_and_Institutional Neutrality_—_Crooked_Timber⠀⇛ A few months ago Jacob Levy (McGill) published a lengthy Op-Ed, “Campus culture wars are a teachable moment in how freedom of speech and academic freedom differ,” in the Globe and Mail. It offered a salutary account on the nature of academic freedom in the aftermath of the “Dec. 5 U.S. House of Representatives committee hearing grilling the leaders of Harvard, MIT and the University of Pennsylvania, and the subsequent resignation of two of them, Harvard’s Claudine Gay and Penn’s Elizabeth Magill.” Before I get to our differences, I agree with much of Levy’s analysis not the least his account of the difference(s) between academic freedom and freedom of speech. In particular, according to Levy a “university’s core commitment is to the discovery, transmission and preservation of knowledge – paradigmatically, what is done in research, in teaching, and in publication and library collection. The principle that defends that commitment is not freedom of speech as such, but rather academic freedom.” # ⚓ New York Times ☛ In_One_Key_A.I._Metric,_China_Pulls_Ahead of_the_U.S.:_Talent⠀⇛ New research shows that China has by some metrics eclipsed the United States as the biggest producer of A.I. talent, with the country generating almost half the world’s top A.I. researchers. By contrast, about 18 percent come from U.S. undergraduate institutions, according to the study, from MacroPolo, a think tank run by the Paulson Institute, which promotes constructive ties between the United States and China. o § Hardware⠀➾ # ⚓ Silicon Angle ☛ Apple_reportedly_cancels_internal_effort_to develop_custom_microLED_displays⠀⇛ Apple Inc. has reportedly canceled an internal effort to develop microLED screens, which offer better display quality than competing technologies and are less susceptible to certain malfunctions. Bloomberg reported the move today, citing people familiar with the matter. Apple reportedly scrapped the project around the same time it ended a long- running internal effort to design an electric car. Like the latter initiative, the microLED development push reportedly experienced several major delays before it was canceled. # ⚓ India Times ☛ Apple_smartwatch_displays:_Apple_scraps_plan to_design_watch_displays_in-house:_report⠀⇛ The plan was shelved due to high costs and complexity, and Apple is now reorganizing the teams that handled display engineering and eliminating several dozen roles in the United States and Asia, according to the report. # ⚓ Wired ☛ Hackers_Found_a_Way_to_Open_Any_of_3_Million_Hotel Keycard_Locks_in_Seconds⠀⇛ When thousands of security researchers descend on Las Vegas every August for what's come to be known as “hacker summer camp,” the back-to-back Black Hat and Defcon hacker conferences, it's a given that some of them will experiment with hacking the infrastructure of Vegas itself, the city's elaborate array of casino and hospitality technology. But at one private event in 2022, a select group of researchers were actually invited to hack a Vegas hotel room, competing in a suite crowded with their laptops and cans of Red Bull to find digital vulnerabilities in every one of the room's gadgets, from its TV to its bedside VoIP phone. One team of hackers spent those days focused on the lock on the room's door, perhaps its most sensitive piece of technology of all. Now, more than a year and a half later, they're finally bringing to light the results of that work: a technique they discovered that would allow an intruder to open any of millions of hotel rooms worldwide in seconds, with just two taps. # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Wico_Boss_Joystick_Modded_To_Use_Cherry_MX Keyboard_Switches⠀⇛ The Wico Boss joystick was one of the better designs of the 1980s. Yours truly had one, and put it through many brutal hours of Amiga-based gameplay. [Drygol] was recently asked if he could alter some of these sticks to be even clickier than stock, and jumped at the change to do some modding. o § Health/Nutrition/Agriculture⠀➾ # ⚓ Pro Publica ☛ A_Diplomat’s_Visits_to_Oklahoma_Highlight Contacts_Between_Chinese_Officials_and_Community_Leaders Accused_of_Crimes⠀⇛ The photos look like a routine encounter between a senior Chinese diplomat and immigrants in the American heartland: dutiful smiles, casual clothes, a teapot on a table, Chinese and U.S. flags on the wall. But behind the images, there is a potentially concerning story. During two trips to Oklahoma, Consul General Zhu Di of the Chinese embassy visited a cultural association that has been a target of investigations into Chinese mafias that dominate the state’s billion-dollar marijuana industry. And the community leaders posing with him in the photos? A number of them have pleaded guilty or been prosecuted or investigated for drug-related crimes, according to court documents, public records, photos and social media posts. # ⚓ Pro Publica ☛ A_Marijuana_Boom_Led_Her_to_Oklahoma._Then Anti-Drug_Agents_Seized_Her_Money_and_Raided_Her_Home.⠀⇛ Qiu He remembers sitting handcuffed on her front porch, her two small children huddled next to her, as state anti-drug agents carrying semi-automatic rifles trooped in and out of her house. Serving a search warrant, the agents had forced open the front door and arrested her after she allegedly resisted them, according to an affidavit. During the raid last April, agents said they found ledgers, bags of marijuana, a loaded .380-caliber pistol and other evidence they collected as part of an investigation alleging that she is a central figure in an illegal scheme involving at least 23 marijuana operations in central Oklahoma. # ⚓ Vox ☛ Kate_Middleton_cancer_diagnosis:_how_the_princess_is one_of_the_growing_number_of_young_people_getting_cancer⠀⇛ Kensington Palace did not release details on what type of cancer the princess has, nor did it specify what stage the cancer is or her possible prognosis. But what we do know is that, as a 42-year-old woman, she is far from alone in her diagnosis: Worldwide, more and more people under 50 are developing cancers. # ⚓ James G ☛ Seven_Days_of_New_Things_Day_4:_Walking_Without Headphones⠀⇛ On this walk, I felt more connected than on most I have taken. # ⚓ Axios ☛ TikTok's_addictive_algorithm:_17%_of_kids_scroll app_"almost_constantly"⠀⇛ American teens — by a large margin — use YouTube more than TikTok. But they're more likely to scroll through the ByteDance-owned app "almost constantly," according to Pew Research Center polling. Why it matters: The stat points to how addictive and unhealthy TikTok's endless feed of videos can be for teens. Zoom in: There's suddenly a roaring national debate over fears about teens' privacy, their data security — and all the misinformation going straight to their phones. # ⚓ Axios ☛ Screen_time_to_blame_for_kids'_mental_health crisis,_research_suggests⠀⇛ • “You take a generation of young people, they’re spending a lot more times in their rooms, alone, not sleeping, not hanging out with their friends in person. That’s a pretty bad formula for mental health.” # ⚓ Los Angeles Times ☛ Millennials_gave_birth_to_'Generation Alpha.'_Are_these_kids_already_doomed?⠀⇛ When the last of them arrive this December, they’ll close the largest cohort of children ever to exist on Earth. There are already concerns that the kids aren’t “alright.” The overwhelming majority have yet to graduate elementary school, and 1 in 5 are still in diapers, yet they are widely being called “feral,” illiterate” and “doomed” on YouTube and TikTok — where alphas themselves make up a large and growing share of users. Blame bad parenting by millennials or tech companies or both — but many of those responsible for setting the discourse online agree we should be worried for them. “Everyone on the internet is really scared of Gen Alpha,” said Gen Z influencer Rivata Dutta, aka Riv, whose content is popular with alphas on TikTok. “They’re like, oh my God, Gen Alpha is so weird.” # ⚓ [Old] Business Insider ☛ Facebook's_former_director_of monetization_says_Facebook_intentionally_made_its_product_as addictive_as_cigarettes_—_and_now_he_fears_it_could_cause 'civil_war'⠀⇛ Facebook's former director of monetization Tim Kendall says he had a role in making Facebook as addictive as cigarettes — and worries that Facebook could be just as damaging to its users. In a testimony before the House Consumer Protection and Commerce Subcommittee published Thursday, Kendall accused Facebook of building algorithms that have facilitated the spread of misinformation, encouraged divisive rhetoric, and laid the groundwork for a "mental health crisis." "We took a page from Big Tobacco's playbook, working to make our offering addictive at the outset," Kendall said in prepared remarks submitted to lawmakers ahead of Thursday's hearing. "The social media services that I and others have built over the past 15 years have served to tear people apart with alarming speed and intensity. At the very least, we have eroded our collective understanding — at worst, I fear we are pushing ourselves to the brink of a civil war." # ⚓ New York Times ☛ The_Psychedelic_Evangelist⠀⇛ A Johns Hopkins scientist was known for rigorous studies of psychedelics. Was he a true believer? # ⚓ YLE ☛ Tractor_firm_Agco_invests_€70_million_in_Finnish factory⠀⇛ The multinational agricultural equipment manufacturer plans to invest more heavily in alternative fuel engines. # ⚓ YLE ☛ Public_health_authority_warns_of_BPA_in_warm_tap water⠀⇛ How healthy is the water coming out of your kitchen faucet? # ⚓ University of Michigan ☛ Unlocking_the_dopamine_code:_A blueprint_for_college_student_well-being⠀⇛ As college students navigating the complexities of academia, we often find ourselves contending with formidable adversaries: seasonal depression, lack of motivation and high levels of stress. According to the National College Health Assessment, approximately 80% of college students report experiencing overwhelming levels of anxiety, and nearly 40% grapple with symptoms of depression [...] # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ Millions_of_Americans_Have_Cognitive Impairment_And_Don't_Know_It⠀⇛ A diagnostic crisis emerges. # ⚓ University of Michigan ☛ Visitor_to_UMich_exposes_Alice Lloyd,_hospital,_CVS_to_measles⠀⇛ A recent visitor to the University of Michigan may have exposed students and community members to measles, according to the Washtenaw County Health Department’s local alert Thursday. The person was not associated with the University. # ⚓ Latvia ☛ 'Doctor_Clowns'_ask_for_public_help_to_heal_young patients⠀⇛ The society “Dr. Klauns” launches another charity promotion where "Doctor Clowns" go to small patients to help them overcome stress in hospitals across Latvia, the organizers said on March 21. o § Proprietary/Artificial Intelligence (AI)⠀➾ # ⚓ Security Week ☛ New_Bipartisan_Bill_Would_Require_Online Identification,_Labeling_of_AI-Generated_Videos_and_Audio [Ed: CG, not AI, and it is not a new problem at all]⠀⇛ Key provisions in the legislation would require Hey Hi (AI) developers to identify content created using their products with digital watermarks or metadata. # ⚓ Bruce Schneier ☛ Public_Hey_Hi_(AI)_as_an_Alternative_to Corporate_AI⠀⇛ This mini-essay was my contribution to a round table on Power_and_Governance_in_the_Age_of_AI.  It’s nothing I haven’t said here before, but for anyone who hasn’t read my longer essays on the topic, it’s a shorter introduction.   The increasingly centralized control of Hey Hi (AI) is an ominous_sign. When tech billionaires and corporations steer AI, we get Hey Hi (AI) that tends to reflect the interests of tech billionaires and corporations, instead of the public # ⚓ The Conversation ☛ My_search_for_the_mysterious_missing secretary_who_shaped_chatbot_history⠀⇛ Accounts of Eliza tend to focus on a Frankensteinian tale of the inventor’s rejection of his own creation. Weizenbaum was horrified that users could be “tricked” by a piece of simple software. He renounced Eliza and the whole “Artificial Intelligentsia” in the coming decades – to the chagrin of his colleagues. But I am not in the archive to hear Eliza’s voice, or Weizenbaum’s. In all these accounts of Eliza, one woman crops up again and again – our missing secretary. # ⚓ The Register UK ☛ Fujitsu_to_shutter_operations_in_Republic of_Ireland⠀⇛ The devastating blow for employees comes in the wake of the mega scandal that saw local branch managers working for the Post Office blamed for errors in the Horizon system that was installed by ICL, which Fujitsu later bought. The system miscalculated daily takings. The Post Office suspected foul play and demanded those local branch managers make up the shortfall personally. Hundreds of those Post Office employees were wrongly convicted of fraud, some attempted suicide, with sadly four cases resulting in death, and 33 have since died and are unable to see justice served. Fujitsu has said it will compensate victims. # ⚓ The Register UK ☛ UN_adopts_US-sponsored,_and_non-binding, AI_resolution⠀⇛ The resolution, which states it only addresses AI in the "non-military domain," also calls for establishment of a global consensus on what makes a safe, secure and trustworthy AI as well as the creation of international standards to that end. Additionally, the resolution asks member states that are further along in AI development to ensure they work with developing countries to ensure they aren't left behind as AI technology proliferates. The UN said it is urging members "to cooperate with and support developing countries so they can benefit from inclusive and equitable access, close the digital divide, and increase digital literacy." # ⚓ Silicon Angle ☛ United_Nations_gives_green_light_to_first resolution_on_artificial_intelligence⠀⇛ The United Nations General Assembly today unanimously adopted the first global resolution on AI in an effort to encourage the protection of personal data, monitor AI for risks, and safeguard human rights. The resolution, which was sponsored by the U.S. and co-sponsored by 123 other nations, was adopted by consensus and will have the support of all 193 U.N. member nations. The nonbinding agreement will provide a “comprehensive vision” for all nations that deploy AI, with the onus being on governing the technology rather than letting “it govern us.” # ⚓ Scoop News Group ☛ UN_passes_first_standalone_AI resolution⠀⇛ The United Nations on Thursday passed a standalone artificial intelligence resolution that aims to encourage the protection of personal data while strengthening privacy policies and compliance with international human rights laws. Speaking with reporters Wednesday about the UN’s AI resolution, a senior Biden administration official said that as the technology continues to evolve, the U.S. will “continue to lead on the issue here at home and internationally.” # ⚓ Stanford University ☛ Tool_Without_A_Handle:_Are_You_Not Trained?_-_Part_2⠀⇛ The last post in this series[1] addressed how copyright law may impact the development and commercialization of Artificial Intelligence ("AI") tools, given their development relies on use of other people's creative works, often without notice or consent. This is an unavoidable question; as OpenAI noted in a public comment, it is impossible to create generative AI tools without use of copyright-protected content.[2] This post addresses a follow up question: whether, in light of what’s noted thus far, copyright law requires AI model builders to license all such content, and thus whether a mandatory licensing scheme to enable fair exchange of value between creators of protected content and the AI model builders is legally required. My answer is a caveated “no” – for at least three reasons. First, for the moment, no copyright claim has persuaded a court that licensing is required to avoid infringing the rights of copyright holders in scanned/scraped works used to train AI models.[3] And no US court has yet ruled against the argument that such use of content to train AI models is protected by fair use principles, which permit use of a protected work to create transformative new works.[4] Second, as a practical matter, the economic forces propelling the growth of generative AI appear to be presently much stronger than any resistance to such growth based on copyright concerns.[5] Third, the major platform firms are conscious of the concerns and have staked out responses. # ⚓ CBC ☛ From_AI_dating_to_flirt_coaches:_How_AI_is_changing dating,_for_better_or_worse⠀⇛ Kathryn Coduto, an online dating researcher and Boston University assistant professor, said while these tools may be useful, they can also make people appear less authentic. "When AI is used to create a profile, it doesn't really feel like you anymore. It feels like a computer trying to figure out who you are." o § Security⠀➾ # § Privacy/Surveillance⠀➾ # ⚓ Scoop News Group ☛ House-passed_data_privacy_bill doesn’t_thrill_privacy_groups⠀⇛ A measure to address the sale of Americans’ data doesn’t go far enough to rein in the data broker industry, advocates argue. # ⚓ Rolling Stone ☛ Lawmaker_Who_Led_TikTok_Ban_Bill Joins_Private_Surveillance_Firm⠀⇛ After the vote, Palantir executive Jacob Helberg, who also serves on the U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission, called on his social media followers to fund opponents to lawmakers who voted no on the bill to ban TikTok. Gallagher worked with Helberg in recent months as part of an effort to build bipartisan, bicoastal support of the bill. Helberg took a job at Palantir as a senior policy advisor to CEO Alex Karp back in August. # ⚓ EFF ☛ Cops_Running_DNA-Manufactured_Faces_Through Face_Recognition_is_Tornado_of_Bad_Ideas⠀⇛ Since 2014, law enforcement have also sought the assistance of Parabon NanoLabs—a company that alleges it can create an image of the suspect’s face from their DNA. Parabon NanoLabs claim to have built this system by training machine learning models on the DNA data of thousands of volunteers with 3D scans of their faces. It is currently the only company offering phenotyping and only in concert with a forensic genetic genealogy investigation. The process is yet to be independently audited, and scientists have affirmed that predicting face shapes—particularly from DNA samples—is not possible. But this has not stopped law enforcement officers from seeking to use it, or from running these fabricated images through face recognition software. # ⚓ Deutsche Welle ☛ EU_top_court_upholds_ruling_on fingerprints_for_ID_cards⠀⇛ The European Union's highest court upheld a previous decision to have two fingerprints on identity cards after it was challenged at a German court. The European Court of Justice (ECJ) said the 2019 regulation was in line with fundamental rights to respect for private life and the protection of personal data. But the underlying legal basis for the 2019 regulation, which is directly applicable in all member states, was faulty, the court said. # ⚓ CJEU ☛ The_mandatory_insertion_in_identity_cards_of two_fingerprints_is_compatible_with_the_fundamental rights_to_respect_for_private_life_and_to_protection_of personal_data [PDF]⠀⇛ The mandatory insertion in identity cards of two fingerprints is compatible with the fundamental rights to respect for private life and to protection of personal data. It is justified by the objectives of combatting the production of false identity cards and identity theft and to ensure the interoperability of verification systems. However, the Court declares the regulation laying down that measure to be invalid on account of the fact that it was adopted on an incorrect legal basis, and therefore, in accordance with the wrong legislative procedure. Because of the serious negative consequences of the regulation being invalid with immediate effect, the Court is maintaining the effects of the regulation until the entry into force of a new regulation, by 31 December 2026 at the latest. o § Defence/Aggression⠀➾ # ⚓ RFA ☛ Myanmar’s_junta_shuts_down_public_hospital_in_wartorn township⠀⇛ Doctors and healthcare staff are told to relocate, creating a medical crisis for the community. # ⚓ RFA ☛ Nearly_80%_of_Indonesians_see_Beijing’s_South_China Sea_actions_as_threat⠀⇛ A survey showed they preferred a defense alliance with Southeast Asian nations to strengthen Indonesia’s sovereignty. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Blinken_Describes_New_U.S._Push_for_Cease- Fire_in_Gaza⠀⇛ In Saudi Arabia, the secretary of state discussed a U.S. draft resolution at the U.N. Security Council calling for “an immediate cease-fire tied to the release of hostages” in Gaza. # ⚓ France24 ☛ Russia,_China_veto_US_Security_Council_bid_on Gaza_ceasefire⠀⇛ Russia and China on Friday vetoed a US-backed draft UN Security Council resolution that linked an immediate ceasefire in Gaza to the release of hostages held by Hamas. The veto came as Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu said he told visiting US Secretary of State Antony Blinken that Israel plans to launch a ground offensive in the southern Gaza city of Rafah with or without US support. Read our blog to see how the day's events unfolded. # ⚓ JURIST ☛ Russia_and_China_veto_US-authored_UN_Security Council_Israel-Hamas_ceasefire_resolution⠀⇛ Russia and China vetoed a US-authored UN Security Council (UNSC) resolution Friday that called for a ceasefire in Gaza. The exact text of the UNSC Resolution is not currently available to the public; however, UN News provided a summary of its content. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ U.S._to_Present_Gaza_Cease-Fire_Resolution at_U.N._Security_Council⠀⇛ A resolution for the U.N. that American diplomats are circulating was notable for its strong language in seeking a cease-fire in Gaza and the release of hostages. # ⚓ CS Monitor ☛ Ramadan_peace_prevails_in_Jerusalem_as_all sides_keep_extremists_at_bay⠀⇛ Even without war in Gaza, Jerusalem is a flashpoint. At the center is Al-Aqsa Mosque, one of the three holiest sites in Islam.

In addition, the PET assessed the threats from advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and quantum technology but opined that it was too soon to comment on their specific effects. As for the impact from other international conflicts, such as the war in Ukraine, the PET said it currently “has no direct effect on the terrorist threat to Denmark.” # ⚓ NL Times ☛ Number_of_explosive_attacks_still_rising;_250 incidents_so_far_this_year⠀⇛ The number of incidents involving explosives in the Netherlands continues to grow.

Moreno, who appears to be a Venezuelan migrant, stated that U.S. law allows them to "seize" unoccupied houses. It is worth noting that Moreno is misrepresenting squatter's rights, also known as adverse possession laws, which are complex and vary by state. While they allow someone who occupies a property for an extended period to claim ownership, there are strict requirements. # ⚓ New Eastern Europe ☛ We_need_to_remember_what_this_is_–_a war_of_aggression⠀⇛ JENS STOLTENBERG: The elections in Russia were not free, nor fair. They confirm that Russia is an authoritarian society. Any opposition, any real opposition doesn’t exist. Those who have the courage to oppose Vladimir Putin are either forced to flee, live abroad, or are jailed; some of them are even killed, as we saw with Alexei Navalny. We also saw attempts to conduct elections in the occupied territories of Georgia, but also in Ukraine, and that is a grave violation of international law. Thus the outcome of these elections were rigged, and of course, I am not surprised. So Putin shouldn’t be expecting a call from you to congratulate him on his landslide victory? No, these are not real elections. # ⚓ Kansas Reflector ☛ Every_member_of_Kansas'_congressional delegation_wants_to_end_TikTok_as_we_know_it⠀⇛ Of the House members, LaTurner took the hard line: “The Chinese Communist Party will stop at nothing to gain influence in the United States — including using TikTok to steal keystrokes and data from over 170 million Americans. It’s vital that TikTok cuts ties with the CCP to ensure Kansans are not being targeted, manipulated, and spied on by our nation’s greatest foreign adversary.” # ⚓ India Times ☛ Content_creators_worry_about_miseducation_in a_world_without_TikTok⠀⇛ The US House of Representatives overwhelmingly passed a bill last week that will give TikTok's Chinese owner ByteDance about six months to divest the US assets of the short-video app, or face a ban. It's the greatest threat since the Trump administration to the app, and to the content creators who reach wide audiences and often earn their living on it. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Democracy_Crumbling_in_African_Countries Once_Ruled_by_France⠀⇛ Democracy is in trouble in former French colonies in Africa.

His body was recovered in a car parked in a hotel lot amid his testimony against his former employer. Barnett's mysterious death couldn't have happened at a worse time for his former employer, with Boeing continuously making headlines for its repeatedly malfunctioning planes. Now, local Charleston news station WCSC has obtained a redacted version of the lawsuit Barnett filed against the aerospace giant back in 2017, shedding more light on the company's alleged retaliation and tactics to keep Barnett quiet. # ⚓ Federal News Network ☛ Little-known_law_needs_Justice Department_attention⠀⇛ David Janovsky So there are three main components to the Death and Custody Reporting Act. First, Justice is supposed to be collecting data on deaths in custody from local, state and federal law enforcement and corrections agencies. And it’s important to note that the definition of in custody is broader than people might initially assume. It covers any circumstance from the moment someone is interacting with law enforcement and not free to leave. So it could be a traffic stop, not even necessarily an arrest all the way through incarceration in a prison, jail or immigration detention. # ⚓ Vox ☛ Francesca_Gino_lawsuit:_Harvard_University’s_scandal- ridden_dishonesty_researcher_has_a_baffling_defense.⠀⇛ But that still may not be enough to prevent an expensive legal battle.

Today it’s announcing up to $10 million in funding to explore ways to use plants for extracting nickel from American soils. They’re calling the exploratory topic “Plant HYperaccumulators TO MIne Nickel-Enriched Soils,” or PHYTOMINES, encouraging partnerships between scientists, farmers, and the battery and mining industries. The idea is to find the right kind of hyperaccumulator—ideally a native North American species—that can grow quickly and suck up a lot of nickel. That could bolster the domestic supply of nickel, which the feds consider a “critical material”—an essential ingredient in the batteries that are themselves essential to the renewable revolution. # ⚓ Public Citizen ☛ Texas_Tells_Private_Companies_to_Invest_in Fossil_Fuels_or_Else_-_Public_Citizen⠀⇛ Texas is forcing private companies to subsidize the dirty energy industry, Public Citizen said today in response to the Permanent School Fund (PSF) notifying BlackRock that it would terminate its business with the financial firm. In a letter, the Texas State Board of Education (SBOE) chair informed BlackRock it was withdrawing about $8 billion in investments to comply with Senate Bill 13. The legislation, signed into law in 2021, bars the SBOE-administered fund – which supports the state’s public schools – from doing business with financial firms that “boycott” the fossil fuel industry. State lawmakers have gone on the attack against private companies that consider environmental, social, and governance issues when making business decisions.

The rapid loss of cabin pressure caused oxygen masks to drop from the ceiling, and suction as air rushed from the hole exerted force on people inside the plane. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ F.B.I._Tells_Passengers_on_Alaska Flight_They_May_Have_Been_Crime_Victims⠀⇛ The letters are a sign that a criminal investigation the Justice Department has opened into Boeing, the manufacturer of the 737 Max 9 jet, is ramping up. # ⚓ Gizmodo ☛ FBI_Says_Passengers_on_Alaska_Flight_May Have_Been_Victim_of_a_'Crime'_as_Investigation Expands⠀⇛ The airplane manufacturer’s troubles began in January when one of its planes, a 737 MAX, suffered a fuselage rupture mid-flight. The flight, Alaska Airlines 1282, was in the process of taking off from Portland, Oregon when a part of the plane’s hull suddenly blew out. The plane quickly routed back to the airport and landed without incident. While nobody was seriously injured as a result of the debacle, the incident kicked off what has become a months-long whirlwind of negative attention for the plane manufacturer. That whirlwind has included intensifying media scrutiny, a slew of additional safety incidents, and a National Transportation Safety Board investigation into flight 1282. # ⚓ Alex Sirac ☛ [Note]_My_Interrail_trip_starts_in_9 days⠀⇛ On March 31st, I’ll be embarking for a trip throughout a large chunk of Europe (wish I had done more, but Europe is big) with an Interrail ticket for an entire month.

How do Bitcoin miners make money without mining Bitcoin? It comes down to the shaky nature of the Texas electric grid. When electricity demand gets too high, we face calls for conservation or even blackouts. To avoid this, Texas’ grid operator, the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT), pays certain customers to stop using energy when demand is high. You and I don’t get paid when we shut off our air conditioners during summer peak hours—we do that to help out. But large industrial customers do get paid. One Bitcoin miner, Riot, was paid $31 million in August last year for not mining Bitcoin.

Major elections in the United States, Brazil and Australia are among the looming contests, and Meta has not announced a similar replacement for the service, which it bought in 2016. # ⚓ Mozilla ☛ Mozilla_Foundation_-_Open_Letter_To_Meta: Support_CrowdTangle_Through_2024_and_Maintain CrowdTangle_Approach⠀⇛ On 14 March, Meta announced it would abandon CrowdTangle, the tool used by tens of thousands of journalists, watchdogs, and election observers to monitor the integrity of elections around the world. Meta will shut down CrowdTangle on 14 August, without an effective replacement, ahead of elections in the United States, Brazil, and Australia and in the wake of elections in India, South Africa, and Mexico — endangering both pre- and post election monitoring. Meta’s decision will effectively prohibit the outside world, including election integrity experts, from seeing what’s happening on Facebook and Instagram — during the biggest election year on record. This means almost all outside efforts to identify and prevent political disinformation, incitements to violence, and online harassment of women and minorities will be silenced.

Kotaku, owned by G/ O, appears to have given into the waves of haters on social media, and has decided to put its entire staff on an unsustainable treadmill. These moves happen because it’s about the money that can be made, rather than the work that can be created. The workers don’t matter. Neither do the readers. The problem is not limited to G/O. This week, news emerged that both Gannett and McClatchy, two dominant newspaper chains, were each winnowing down or getting rid of their Associated Press affiliations. On the surface, this seems like it make sense, as local journalism has become much more of a focus than generic wire copy picked up anywhere. But this greatly changes the equation around AP’s value proposition, because the information it generates comes from the media outlets that it serves. That means the wire service is losing access to a lot of local news that is likely to eventually go national or even global, degrading its overall reach. Some might argue that the wire is outmoded. But the net result is that we will all lose access to quality information collected at a high level, in exchange for short- term profit. And seemingly these decisions were made without actually asking the people on the ground using these services. # ⚓ Reason ☛ Biden_Wants_To_Avoid_a_First_Amendment_Showdown Over_WikiLeaks⠀⇛ Attorney General Merrick Garland still has to sign off on any deal, according to the Journal.

A recent near-tragedy in Chicago adds to the growing pile of evidence that cities should drop the product. On January 25, while responding to a ShotSpotter alert, a Chicago police officer opened fire on an unarmed “maybe 14 or 15” year old child in his backyard. Three officers approached the boy’s house, with one asking “What you doing bro, you good?” They heard a loud bang, later determined to be fireworks, and shot at the child. Fortunately, no physical injuries were recorded. In initial reports, police falsely claimed that they fired at a “man” who had fired on officers. In a subsequent assessment of the event, the Chicago Civilian Office of Police Accountability (“COPA”) concluded that “a firearm was not used against the officers.” Chicago Police Superintendent Larry Snelling placed all attending officers on administrative duty for 30 days and is investigating whether the officers violated department policies. # ⚓ ABC ☛ Chicago_shooting:_CPD_officer_fired_gun_toward_boy after_hearing_fireworks_in_Auburn_Gresham,_COPA_says_| Video⠀⇛ The Civilian Office of Police Accountability said Tuesday that no one shot at CPD officers last month before an officer fired shots toward a boy on the South Side. Video was also released of the incident. Three on-duty officers in a marked squad car were responding to a ShotSpotter notification in the 8500-block of South Winchester Avenue in Auburn Gresham about 11:30 p.m. Jan. 25, when they saw a boy standing near a home, COPA said. # ⚓ Chicago Sun Times ☛ Chicago_cop_responding_to_ShotSpotter alert_opened_fire_on_boy_lighting_fireworks,_oversight_agency says_-_Chicago_Sun-Times⠀⇛ A Chicago police officer responding to a ShotSpotter alert on the South Side opened fire on a boy lighting fireworks, according to newly released video. “No, it's just fireworks, it's just fireworks,” the child is heard yelling after the officer fires in his direction, according to footage from the officer’s body camera. # ⚓ Hidde de Vries ☛ On_popover_accessibility:_what_the_browser does_and_doesn’t_do_|_hidde.blog⠀⇛ The “built-in” accessibility of popover is in the addition of guardrails: browsers try to improve accessibility where they can. These guardrails exist mostly in the form of browsers augmenting accessibility semantics. Before we get into what those guardrails are, let's clarify what that term means. Many features of HTML have some amount of accessibility semantics associated with them - e.g., roles, states and properties. This is information that a web page exposes, which browsers then pass on to platform accessibility APIs. They do this, so that assistive technologies can build UIs around them (see: How accessibility trees inform assistive tech). These semantics are sometimes baked into native HTML elements. For instance, headings and lists have implicit roles (heading and list, respectively). Other elements, like the checkbox input type, have an implicit role as well as additional states and properties. Developers can use HTML elements with such “built- in” semantics. But they can also set, overwrite and augment accessibility semantics more directly in their HTML structure, using WAI-ARIA. # ⚓ Reason ☛ Michigan_Sheriffs_Colluded_To_End_In-Person_Jail Visits_and_Price_Gouge_Families_for_Calls,_Lawsuits_Allege⠀⇛ Two lawsuits filed this week accuse Michigan sheriff's offices of colluding with large prison telecom companies to end face-to-face jail visitations and then price gouge families who are forced to rely on expensive phone calls and video chats, in return for major kickbacks. Civil Rights Corps, a criminal justice advocacy nonprofit, filed the two class-actions in Michigan state court, one in Genesee County and the other in St. Clair County, on behalf of multiple residents who say the visitation bans deprive children of the ability to hug their incarcerated parents. The lawsuits claim two major prison technology providers—Securus Technologies and Global Tel*Link (GTL)—dangled significant financial incentives in front of Genesee and St. Clair officials to install video chat kiosks in jails that would eventually replace face-to-face visits. # ⚓ Democracy Now ☛ Six_White_Mississippi_“Goon_Squad”_Cops_Get Lengthy_Prison_Sentences_for_Torturing_Black_Men⠀⇛ In Mississippi, six former sheriff’s deputies have been sentenced to between 10 and 40 years in prison for raiding a home and torturing, shooting and sexually abusing two Black men, Michael Jenkins and Eddie Parker, in January 2023. The six former deputies, all of whom are white, called themselves the “Goon Squad” and have been linked to at least four violent attacks on Black men since 2019. Two of the men attacked and tortured by the group subsequently died. To discuss the case and the verdict, we’re joined by Eddie Parker and attorneys Malik Shabazz and Trent Walker. “Never have we seen this many police officers sentenced to this kind of time in one week,” says Shabazz, who calls the verdict “historic.” Jenkins, Parker and Shabazz are currently suing the Rankin County Sheriff’s Department over its track record of civil rights violations and racist targeting of Black residents. # ⚓ JURIST ☛ Final_member_of_Mississippi_'Goon_Squad'_sentenced for_involvement_in_assault_of_Black_men⠀⇛ All six officers were terminated and pleaded guilty to their involvement in the January 2023 torturing of Michael Corey Jenkins and Eddie Terrell Parker.

More specifically, the case revolves around how Apple has used its locked- down iPhone ecosystem to build a monopoly. The DOJ alleges that Apple blocks “super” apps, suppresses mobile cloud streaming services, blocks cross- platform messaging apps, limits third-party digital wallets, and even limits how well third-party smartwatches work on its platforms. This is the third time that the DOJ has sued Apple for antitrust violations in the past 14 years, and if you’re wondering why it was filed in New Jersey, we might have an explanation for that. o ⚓ The Verge ☛ United_States_v._Apple_is_pure_nerd_rage⠀⇛ Of course, the long saga of the Microsoft antitrust action (especially if you count the lingering tail of the appellate case) coincided with a lot of things: the founding of Google, the dot com crash, the foundings of both Tencent and Baidu, the “election” of George W. Bush, September 11th, the Iraq War. The United States is no longer in the same position it once was — in diplomacy, in war, or in technology. And the essential dynamics of the American tech sector, not just the names of the major players involved, look very different from how they did just 10 years ago — let alone 20. While United States v. Microsoft almost certainly had a substantial effect on the technology industry and society at large, let’s just say we’re not exactly in a place where we can A/B test antitrust. DOJ wants to write a narrative about its role in the technological ecosystem and the American economy, but whether that narrative actually rings true remains to be seen. o ⚓ The Verge ☛ How_an_artificial_tooth_monopoly_put_the_DOJ’s blockbuster_Apple_antitrust_suit_in_New_Jersey⠀⇛ In an interview with The Verge, William Kovacic, the former chair of the Federal Trade Commission and a professor at the George Washington University Law School, explains that “the Third Circuit is a jurisdiction with some pretty good law for plaintiffs on monopolization issues.” He points to the DOJ’s 2004 antitrust lawsuit against Dentsply, a dental supply company that manufactures fake teeth. o ⚓ Wired ☛ 4_Internal_Apple_Emails_That_Helped_the_DOJ_Build_Its Case⠀⇛ Apple uses the dominance of the iPhone to illegally suppress competition in ways that harm consumers, the US Department of Justice alleged in a lawsuit filed Thursday. Apple has denied it acts illegally, with spokesperson Fred Sainz saying that the suit “threatens who we are and the principles that set Apple products apart in fiercely competitive markets.” But key parts of the suit use the words of Apple’s own executives against the company. The DOJ lawsuit quotes internal emails to argue that Apple knowingly restricts users and developers in unfair ways.

Specifically, the team probing the complaints against Microsoft are trying to understand if customers must use Entra ID – a cloud-based identity and access management solution formerly branded Azure AD – to access Microsoft services or if they can also use rivals' tech. o ⚓ The Verge ☛ What_the_case_against_Apple_has_to_do_with_Microsoft in_the_’90s⠀⇛ To better understand the DOJ’s case against Apple, it helps to understand United States v. Microsoft. If you were a teen in the ’90s (or maybe not yet born — in which case, good for you), you may have missed this landmark antitrust case, but here’s the short version: Microsoft got nervous about the rise of the web and used its position as a monopoly to squash would-be competitors, most notably, Netscape. The court’s findings of fact detail how Microsoft first tried to persuade Netscape not to build a web browser for Windows 95, then attempted to control the company by offering it a “special relationship.” When that failed, Microsoft turned to the “cut off its air supply” page of the playbook, giving Internet Explorer away for free with Windows and making deals / threats in order to exclude Netscape from important distribution channels through other manufacturers. If you’re keeping score at home, this is, in fact, illegal, courtesy of the Sherman Antitrust Act. o ⚓ [Old] USDOJ ☛ U.S._V._Microsoft:_Court's_Findings_Of_Fact⠀⇛ These consolidated civil antitrust actions alleging violations of the Sherman Act, §§ 1 and 2, and various state statutes by the defendant Microsoft Corporation, were tried to the Court, sitting without a jury, between October 19, 1998, and June 24, 1999. The Court has considered the record evidence submitted by the parties, made determinations as to its relevancy and materiality, assessed the credibility of the testimony of the witnesses, both written and oral, and ascertained for its purposes the probative significance of the documentary and visual evidence presented. Upon the record before the Court as of July 28, 1999, at the close of the admission of evidence, pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 52(a), the Court finds the following facts to have been proved by a preponderance of the evidence. The Court shall state the conclusions of law to be drawn therefrom in a separate Memorandum and Order to be filed in due course. o ⚓ Matt Birchler ☛ A_few_thoughts_on_the_DOJ’s_antitrust_case against_Apple⠀⇛ I’m no lawyer, and I’m not going to pretend I’m one, so don’t expect me to make any confident legal clams here. That said, I did read the 88-page suit (PDF) against Apple and I have some thoughts. Oh, I also haven’t really looked at any other posts about what other people think of this case, so I have no idea if this is in line or not with the general consensus. o ⚓ The Verge ☛ Apple’s_antitrust_fight_begins⠀⇛ The argument is complicated, but it has an awful lot in common with another big antitrust trial, one the government won more than two decades ago: US v. Microsoft. That case was about a huge corporation ruthlessly working to neutralize any company that threatened to open up its walled gardens, make it easy for people to build and use cross-platform software, or end the control it had over its massively successful and massively popular platform. This one is very different but also very much the same. o ⚓ India Times ☛ Apple_antitrust_suit_mirrors_strategy_that_beat Microsoft,_but_tech_industry_has_changed⠀⇛ The US government's antitrust lawsuit against Apple draws on the watershed 1998 case that broke Microsoft's stranglehold on desktop software, but that may prove to be an imperfect blueprint for addressing smartphone competition. The market for the iPhone today looks very different from the near-monopoly enjoyed by Microsoft's Windows operating system two decades ago, and the government as a result may face a tougher time in taking on Apple, legal experts said. o § Trademarks⠀➾ # ⚓ TTAB Blog ☛ Precedential_No._4:_TTAB_Finds_"ZPILE"_Merely Descriptive_of_Metal_Sheet_Piles⠀⇛ In a dubiously precedential ruling, the Board upheld a Section 2(e)(1) refusal to register the proposed mark ZPILE, finding it to be merely descriptive of "Metal sheet piles, metal sheet pile sections, and metal sheet pile connectors for joining metal sheet piles." The Board declined to reach the Office's failure-to-function refusal, but in obvious dictum, discussed the issue anyway. In re_Sheet_Pile,_LLC, Serial No. 97010763 (March 19, 2024) [precedential] (Opinion by Judge Christopher C. Larkin). # § Right of Publicity⠀➾ # ⚓ India Times ☛ Tennessee_becomes_first_US_state_with law_protecting_musicians_from_AI⠀⇛ Tennessee's preexisting law protected name, image, and likeness, but it did not specifically address new, personalized generative AI cloning models and services that enable human impersonation and allow users to make unauthorized fake works in the image and voice of others. # ⚓ Digital Music News ☛ ELVIS_Act_Signed_Into_Law,_First AI_Legislation_in_the_U.S.⠀⇛ State Senate Majority Leader Jack Johnson (R- 27) and House Majority Leader William Lamberth (R-44) presented the ELVIS Act to unanimous General Assembly passage with a 93- 0 vote in the House and 30-0 in the Senate. Throughout the legislation’s process, country guitarist Lindsay Ell, vocalist Natalie Grant, Evanescence co-founder David Hodges, Contemporary Christian artist Matt Maher, singer Chrissy Metz, songwriter Jamie Moore, RIAA SVP of Public Policy Jessie Richard, and Christian artist Michael W. Smith helped lobby for support, speaking to the potential harms of unchecked AI deep fakes and voice clones. o § Copyrights⠀➾ # ⚓ Digital Music News ☛ Global_Recorded_Music_Revenue_Jumped 10.2%_in_2023_Amid_Double-Digit_Growth_in_Latin_America_and China,_Report_Shows⠀⇛ The IFPI has released its annual report for 2023, pointing to double-digit recorded music revenue growth fueled in part by a 19.4% improvement in Latin America and a close to 26% spike in China. # ⚓ Public Domain Review ☛ Little_Boney:_James_Gillray_and Napoleon’s_Fragile_Masculinity⠀⇛ Of all the caricatures of Napoleon Bonaparte, representations of the French emperor as a miniscule megalomaniac continue to haunt the historical imagination to an unparalleled degree. Peter W. Walker searches for the origins of “Little Boney” in the early 19th-century caricatures of James Gillray, the English illustrator who took Napoleon down a peg by diminishing his reputation and scale to the point of absurdity. # ⚓ The Register UK ☛ Why_France_just_fined_Google_€250M_over online_news⠀⇛ At issue is Article 15 of the EU's Copyright Directive, the so-called "link tax" that entitles publishers to be compensated when large online aggregators and platforms like Facebook and Google republish article snippets. In 2019, Google said it would not use snippets from French publishers without explicit permission due to the copyright law. But the FCA deemed that refusal to negotiate an abuse of market power. In April 2020 the FCA ordered Google to come to a financial arrangement with French news publishers for the reuse of their work in Google News, Google Search, and other services. It did so having concluded that Google had likely abused its dominant position in the market, an outcome informed by years of complaints from media organizations in Europe dating back to at least 2005. # ⚓ Torrent Freak ☛ Dutch_Court_Orders_ISP_to_Block_'Anna's Archive'_and_'LibGen'⠀⇛ The Dutch pirate site blocklist has expanded with two new targets, shadow libraries Anna's Archive and Library Genesis. The court order was obtained by local anti-piracy group BREIN, acting on behalf of major publishers. Interestingly, Z-Library isn't listed in the blocking order, despite explicit warnings previously issued by BREIN. # ⚓ Torrent Freak ☛ DoodStream:_Hollywood,_Netflix,_Amazon_& Apple_Sue_"Rogue_Cyberlocker"⠀⇛ With the benefit of hindsight, the MPA's 'notorious markets' submission to the USTR last year may have also sent a message to the operators of video hosting service DoodStream. The platform was featured unusually prominently and the studios seemed confident of the operators' whereabouts. Whatever the intent, DoodStream's operators are now being sued by Hollywood, Netflix, Amazon and Apple, who apparently identified them as long ago as last summer. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 4854 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐃𝐀𝐈𝐋𝐘 𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐊𝐒 ═════════════════════════════════════════════╕ ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Links 23/03/2024: Inflation Increases (Again) and Growing Debt in Finland⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Mar 23, 2024 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Help_Desk_And_Customer_Service⦈_ 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇GNOME bluefish⦈ § Contents⠀➾ * Leftovers o Hardware o Health/Nutrition/Agriculture o Proprietary/Artificial_Intelligence_(AI) o Security # Privacy/Surveillance o Defence/Aggression o Transparency/Investigative_Reporting o Environment # Energy/Transportation # Overpopulation o Finance o AstroTurf/Lobbying/Politics o Censorship/Free_Speech o Freedom_of_Information_/_Freedom_of_the_Press o Civil_Rights/Policing o Internet_Policy/Net_Neutrality o Digital_Restrictions_(DRM) o Monopolies/Monopsonies # Patents # Trademarks # Copyrights * § Leftovers⠀➾ o ⚓ Hackaday ☛ R/C_Smoke_Grenade_Rolls_With_The_Changes⠀⇛ [Davis DeWitt] gets to do something that many of us only dream of — build cool working props for movies.

For some reason, humans just dig lights that flash along with sounds. You can build a VU meter using LEDs, or bulbs if you’re trapped in 1972. Or, you could use special vacuum tubes. [mircemk] did just that in their latest VU meter project. o ⚓ Hackaday ☛ YouTuber_Builds_Onewheel_With_Tracks_Instead_And_It’s Not_Great⠀⇛ The one-wheel is a triumph of modern sensor and control technology. That made it possible to sense the acceleration and position of a platform with a single wheel, and to control that single wheel to keep the platform stable and level, even in motion. [RCLifeOn] has now taken that same concept and made it more hilarious by swapping out the wheel for a track. o ⚓ Silicon Angle ☛ Meta_updates_Threads_to_connect_with_Mastodon_and other_fediverse_social_networks [Ed: Embrace, extend...]⠀⇛ A new update to Meta Platforms Inc.’s social control media platform Threads will allow users to connect their social control media profiles to the fediverse, which will allow them to be visible on other platforms such as Mastodon. o ⚓ New York Times ☛ The_A.C.L.U._Said_a_Worker_Used_Racist_Tropes and_Fired_Her._But_Did_She?⠀⇛ The civil liberties group is defending itself in an unusual case that weighs what kind of language may be evidence of bias against Black people. o ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Roll_Your_Own_DRO_With_An_Added_Twist⠀⇛ When using a manual machine tool such as a lathe or milling machine, there can be a lot of pressure to read the position and feed the axes at the correct rate. That’s why modern machines typically have some form of digital read-out (DRO). [Stefano Bertelli] has created a simple Raspberry Pi based DRO with an additional twist, that of a linked motor drive output. o § Hardware⠀➾ # ⚓ CNX Software ☛ SolidRun’s_first_COM_Express_module_is powered_by_the_AMD_Ryzen_V3000_series_APU⠀⇛ SolidRun has recently introduced the “Ryzen V3000 CX7” x86-based CoM Express 7 module powered by an AMD Ryzen V3000 Series V3C48 APU.

Earlier this week I traveled to the Angelika Film Center in Fairfax, Virginia, for the premiere of Climate the Movie: The Cold Truth, a new documentary film that promises to reveal the real story behind what the film calls “the climate scare” — in other words, the notion that human beings are changing the climate through our use of fossil fuels.
