@joenepraat it definitely looks like a violation of human rights. send those brutes to, um, The Hague.

@lauren Arguably contemporary AI was foreseen in RFC 2795.

This is quite an article, on the ignored megalomania of Sinwar's faction of Hamas before the war, and Gaza's unsettled expats in Egypt watching and discussing from afar. By haaretz.com/israel-news/2024-0 ht

@GuerillaOntologist Ha! Sorry if you saw a now-deleted response flash before you. I misunderstood which post you were responding to.

I guess that might be seen from a Board's perspective as really taking the initiative for the firm.

@maxkennerly now let's delve into that more deeply.

i like to remember manuel noriega and all the rock-and-roll music and think of bibi netanyahu.

no, i am not seriously recommending an invasion. still, by comparison noriega was a piker.

does it reflect a life well or poorly lived, if you turn up as "main character" years after you die?

@admitsWrongIfProven it's, um, a systemd joke.

systemd, when it starts a process that will fork a long-lasting daemon + quit, has its own "notify" protocol by which the forking process can inform systemd about the child, so systemd can watch and manage it. that's Type=notify. systemd supports, but disrecommends, "old school" processes that kick out a PID file of the child process too: Type=forking.

the xz hack relied upon sshd getting patched to support "notify".

shoulda stuck with forking.

“what’s been so odd about effective altruism is that the need for collective action is fully internalized in its DNA; it presents and understands itself as a world-historical ‘movement.’ But the collective action…has not been generally oriented toward institutional, political, or regime change. (One can’t help wonder whether this isn’t an effect of being geared toward recruitment of those that benefit most from the economic and educational status quo.)” crookedtimber.org/2024/04/05/o

@cosmicallyf@beige.party part of the trick is you also use the space between.

@grantimatter careful. you'll go blind.

"Media commentators are mystified about why Joe Biden has not gotten more credit for an improved economy, with inflation down nearly to pre-pandemic levels and job creation setting records. The reason is not hard to grasp. None of the recent improvements have altered the basic situation of most Americans, in which reliable careers are scarce, college requires the burden of debt, health coverage is more expensive and less reliable, and housing is unaffordable." prospect.org/politics/2024-04-

do you use your knuckles to figure out how long the month is?
