So it was just interim protection and didn't result in solution- "however, for an extended period of time, 10 companies, including many well-established ones, have chosen to not pay for the immense value they receive on Google Play by securing interim protections from court. These developers comply with payment policies of other app stores.' -
Such bans are meaningless because it's trivial to circumvent them
Telegram was banned in Russia, they indiscriminately blocked 16 million IP addresses just to get rid of telegram
It kept working, utterly ineffective -

Explore the Sonoff products. Many of them can be flashed with Tasmota (GPLv3). I'm just using the basic switches and haven't looked into the ones that report power consumption. -
thanks, will check those out. open to other recs as well. I recently got into the Phillips Hue train and that has got me to explore other smart products.

@m_riya11 I tried to subscribe to the FOSS United Newsletter from the fossunited.org. However, I get an error. Could you please check the issue and get it resolved?

I disagree, telegram still offers everything it has for free -

How about matrix or zulip instead -

Iirc unlimited file uploads is there not sure about the streaming quality -
Good to know -
Sure ads won't be shown here, but these ads are not context based and private, it's full on user profiling using data, I hate how they name (and Google's privacy sandbox) their ads system privacy related, there isn't anything related to privacy, I can not even disable the tracking as it's telegram own data, and data mining is done server side, no adblocker can block it, currently it is based on channels joined,their messages, and topics also dms and group chats are also unencrypted so there's nothing stopping them from doing data mining on chats also, I am not comfortable on a platform that does so much data mining-just compare this to signal, matrix, WhatsApp, even discordTelegram Info EnglishChanges on the Telegram Ads Platform Over the recent period, the official advertising platform Telegram Ads has undergone several significant changes. Here’s an overview of the new features now available to advertisers: • Targeting not just channels but their audiences. Instead of targeting specific channels, some authors can now target the audience of those channels. When setting up an ad, you can specify a list of channels, and their subscribers will see the ad not only on those channels but also on others. • Using Target topics intersection. Ads can be tailored to users interested in multiple topics simultaneously. • Setting display limits per person. Advertisers can set the frequency of ad displays to a specific user, ranging from 1 to 4 times per day. • Device segmentation. You can choose between iOS or Android devices, mobile or desktop platforms, or opt-out of device type segmentation. • The minimum rate for 1000 impressions is now €1.5, in the Politics & Incidents category, it’s €0.75. • The option to restrict ad displays in channels of the Politics & Incidents category. • Private links for ads. Advertisers can now use individual invitation links in ad campaigns for more accurate statistics, but the channel must remain public. • Adding an avatar to the ad. When promoting a channel or bot, their avatar will be used, and when advertising a website, you can upload your image; otherwise, it will be generated based on the site’s data. • Viewing statistics on new subscribers from ad campaigns is possible in the channel’s statistics section. • Using 12 different captions for buttons. The following captions are available: “Visit site,” “Subscribe,” “Watch,” “Read,” “Learn more,” “Open,” “Register,” “Buy,” “Order,” “Play,” “Try,” “Submit request.” #AboutAds

Recently installed Frappe on a freshly reinstalled Ubuntu. GPT was an invaluable companion in helping me with the Frappe dependency tree. I only needed to paste screenshots or text from my terminal into GPT and it would tell me exactly what went wrong and how to fix it. e.g. I struggled with redis that kept restarting and then giving an error or port being used, or with the app not linked to the site via bench .. install-app .. GPT gave all the answers and moved me ahead.
Bots for resolving problems for newbies would become common in the future, now that they actually work. Maybe we don't need the power of GPT4, we could just create a TinyBERT or TinyLlama trained with Frappe help and forum content and run this locally. Need to try this sometime. -

Re: Twenty years is nothing
Young devs won't believe it, but until the early 2000s, most companies used source control systems that forced you to LOCK any file on a centralized repo before you were allowed to modify it (MS's SourceSafe, ClearCase, Perforce)... This was often the case even if you just wanted to touch a file locally for some experimentation... insane.
So, at a customer site (while I was doing consulting for them), I couldn't stand it anymore (I had been using CVS myself since 1997). So I installed SVN to work on their project and showed it to the team. I was called an "irresponsible engineer"... "Modifying files without locking is a crazy! You don't do that on real engineering teams!"
The open-source world was at least 10 years ahead.
ferd, 4 hours ago -
damn -
sounds painful -
You don't need to lock a file in perforce . You do need to 'open a file for editing' which needs a round trip to the server. -
I’d think that the points of evaluation for a beta AI LLM are the primary aspect which is missing. To evaluate one requires recognised expertise in the domain, acceptable methods of testing and possibly transparent reporting on results of the test. Excluding startups (what’s the definition again?) but including others (who?) is likely to cause more chaos.
If this move is aligned with the Safe, Open, Trusted and Accountable Internet bit from MeitY then it also needs to clearly mention what is a “version”.
The present form of the requirement is very disproportionate, not backed by a legal framework and specifically not really necessary.
GenAI and LLM build narratives and given the general absence of accuracy, the produced output can create compelling alternative narratives. The question around this approval requirement is how will it help or hinder (if at all) the alternative narrative pipeline. - 05 March 2024 (25 messages)

River Reverse ProxyThe Story Just about every significantly-sized deployment on the Internet makes use of reverse proxy software, and the most commonly deployed reverse proxy software is not memory safe. This means that most deployments have millions of lines of C and C++ handling incoming traffic at the edges of their networks, a risk that needs to be addressed if we are to have greater confidence in the security of the Internet.
-
Also don’t these models “learn” with every interaction? Makes any “certification” meaningless -
Just curious, what took so long ?

Very small team, just did not have the bandwidth -

Fun story from our internal testing on Claude 3 Opus. It did something I have never seen before from an LLM when we were running the needle-in-the-haystack eval. For background, this tests a model’s recall ability by inserting a target sentence (the "needle") into a corpus of…
-
What does this depict? ELI10?
-
sure. the user says claude3 opus model recognised that t’was being evaluated (that they had to be running an eval)
-
Nice! GPT 4 cannot do that is it?
-
that is the job of running evals

can’t speak for it but emergent behaviour is definitely fascinating

Does anyone have any idea what I have this free slot for above my ssd on ThinkPad t490? -
I'm a bit confused about this -
Just taking a guess, for a wwan card?
-
any lisp afficianodos here ? and which FP are you following currently ? -
You want to see what is the other end, probably looks like a M.2 port. Can be used for ssd or wwan or other pcie cards with m.2 connector.
-
Some thinkpads (like p14s) prevent putting anything that's not a wwan card into that slot
-
Lisp, Haskell, OCaml, Rust, if it's FP I like it 😄
