In many countries scientific-funding panels are totally corrupt anyway... Shit happens to shit.

Restored! Maybe worth a post update?

Figuratively or for real?

"Ethical and legal objections". The point in this case is that what's legal is unethical, and what's ethical is illegal. Analogous to other situations through history and countries, for example in the USA when it was illegal for black people to sit in certain parts of a bus, or in Germany when marriage with Jewish people was illegal.

As human beings, it's always important to make the ethical choice.

On top of that, the actual results are behind a paywall and can be very iffy. It sounds like there were only 12 people in the 6-hour group and in each of the other groups. And no indications about other traits like sex, smoking or other habits, and so on. Too small numbers to guarantee against statistical fluctuations. And the "significant" in the abstract may indicate that they used p-values to quantify their results, which are today considered iffy by a large chunk of the statistics community...

"Science of the Total Environment" journal? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Too silly even for a 3rd-rate sci-fi film...

Cheers! Looks like a great fediverse platform. So sad that the choice of English-speaking servers seems somewhat limited - for now.

What's Misskey? Never heard of! Time to check.

For a moment I thought the "here's how" meant "here's how to play in mud and dirt". Let's do it like pros, folks!

these autonomous agents represent the next step in the evolution of large language models (LLMs), seamlessly integrating into business processes to handle functions such as responding to customer inquiries, identifying sales leads, and managing inventory.

I really want to see what happens. It seems to me these "agents" are still useless in handling tasks like customer inquiries. Hopefully customers will get tired and switch to companies that employ competent humans instead...

Cheers! Got a bit clearer now.

Appreciated if someone can explain what is the problem and its context in simple terms 🙏

I understand the GNU "framework" is built on free, open source software. So I don't understand how one can "discover" that there were pieces of non-free software there... They were put there by mistake?

😂

The current security philosophy almost seems to be: "In order to make it secure, make it difficult to use". This is why I propose to go a step further: "In order to make it secure, just don't make it". The safest account is the one that doesn't exist or that can't be accessed by anyone, including its owner.

Just wanted to applaud the fact that you've come here asking people, rather than asking some large language model.

We aren't supposed to accept that. We can simply not use their software. And as users that's the only power we have on devs. But it's a power that only works on devs who are interested in having many users.

Nobel prize in computer science. Looks like the Nobel Prize committee has forgotten what Physics is.

Fully agree.

It's worth posting the blog post you linked.

Personally I disagree on value of sex/nude scenes – but it's a subjective matter of course. Your final argument is absolutely fair and logical, and very general too. Extremely well put – I subscribe 110% to it!
