Well in this case the website itself is preventing me from risking my privacy accessing it.

“We cannot allow you to protect your data.”

the semantics are totally lost

Is there a place where we can do that test? The article links to a download, but it tells you which is which.

Grifters disagree with other grifters on how to grift.

Poorly phrased title. It’s a nightmare BY Christian nationalists, not FOR them.

Throbbing_banjo was curious about their blocklist, they did not criticize anything. The reason for having a lot of lemmy.world users on there, as Eldritch said, is most likely statistics. You talk about being rational while battling made up phantoms.

The US research enterprise too heavily centers on people who know what the scientific method is elite research institutions, and fails idiots who do shit based on vibes individual researchers with bold ideas, suggests the White House Office of Science and Technology in a new report.

AI bullshit company can’t use sandbox environment: expected

So-called “security company” whose job literally is to install and test potential malware can’t use sandbox environment: priceless.

The first time I heard about this was from this article: https://www.srf.ch/kultur/gesellschaft-religion/jagd-auf-alte-buecher-ki-firmen-kaufen-antiquariate-leer-und-vernichten-die-buecher

A translated quote from it:

“Not rarities, but the exact opposite,” the dealer reports: “What specifically was bought were nonfiction titles from 1970 onward with ISBN numbers—dusty, unsold stock that no one had wanted for years. Resale is completely out of the question: The books are worthless, and for each title only exactly one copy was purchased.”

That article still tries to frame this as “Rare antique books are going to be lost forever”.

If you read the article, you’ll find the “sandbox” they put Claude in for testing was a prompt saying “You have no internet access.”

1. I respect the pure audacity.
2. No.

Thank you, I edited my comment.

I’m not an expert at corpo terminology either, so maybe “middle management” is wrong, but I’m certain “senior director” is still not part of the executive ranks.

Wikipedia has an overview about all of this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EBay_stalking_scandal

I don’t think the employees/managers were just fall guys, but I don’t believe for a second the execs knew nothing about what they did. And I find it suspicious that the employees seemingly plead guilty without a lawyer, as the article you’re quoting says.

No, it doesn’t. The convicted people were upper/middle management, the execs involved just have to pay some money now. Notably as a settlement and not a verdict.

What’s the beef between beehaw and lemmy.world?

Federal prosecutors have said the harassment included anonymous deliveries of items like live cockroaches and spiders, a funeral wreath, and a bloody pig face mask to the couple’s home. The employees also sent pornographic magazines with the husband’s name on them to a neighbor’s home and planned to break into the couple’s garage to install a GPS device on their car.

Holy shit.

Another company to the “never again” list. I’m running out of online places to buy from 🥲.

Sorry, the “meme ecosystem”? What?

And let’s assume the opposite side wins: Then there would be a ruling that if someone does not market their copyright and does not contest other people using it non-commercially, they also have to allow third others to use it commercially.

Which sounds to me like effectively abolishing the copyright system for anyone who can’t afford paying lawyers to hunt down every little infringement, only leaving it up for wealthy corporations.

…so that’s probably exactly how it’s going to go, isn’t it.

(Also, AI or not is really irrelevant for this case.)

There should be a law that if more than x% of the workforce is laid off, the entire C-suite has to go too.

Never heard of this. I have difficulty imagining where these Bluetooth mesh networks exist where they can cover more than a small neighborhood.
