Just like you might restrict a child’s screen time, OpenAI is cutting off internet access for its frontier model training. @Engadget explains why:
We know drones are reshaping modern warfare. Could dogs be next? @Techcrunch has more on Warhound, a new venture that would genetically engineer war dogs for the U.S. military and take on tasks that are dangerous for humans or difficult for machines, such as bomb detection, searches, and other specialized operations:

*screaming into the void* If there's a piece of text or important information that appears on a page while filling out a form, ETC, that message must be announced by screen readers. If I have to explore the entire webpage to find the alert text message at the bottom, it may as well not exist for 99% of screen reader users. And no, "Password invalid requirement undefined" doesn't count. For the love of all that is sacred, please check your JavaScript... then test, test, and test again with any screen readers/assistive tech you have access to.

Tracker cards, the ultra-thin, credit card-size cards people put in their wallets and the like, are becoming more popular. They’re handy if you lose a belonging or it's stolen.

The Signal Protocol in Rust
TL;DR: I have open-sourced a #Rust implementation of the #SignalProtocol that compiles to #WASM for #Browser-based #P2P messaging, overcoming the #Nodejs limitations of the official library.
I am sharing my implementation of the Signal Protocol designed specifically for the #Frontend. While the official libsignal is the gold standard, its #JavaScript targets are often optimized for Node.js, which creates integration challenges for client-side web applications.
My version is built in #RustLang and compiles to #WebAssembly, utilizing #ModuleFederation to provide robust #Encryption for decentralized environments. It currently powers the end-to-end security for my series of #P2P messaging projects.
Protocol Demo:
https://signal.positive-intentions.com/
P2P Messaging roadmap:
https://glitr.io/docs/technical/roadmap
I am looking for feedback from the #Dev and #Infosec community. If you have experience with #Cryptography audits or formal-proof verification, I would appreciate your eyes on the codebase as I work toward a more finished state.

"access and usage do not equal transformation", "adding agents to a broken process still leaves a broken process” and “speeding up one step just creates a longer queue at the next" says Microsoft, apparently unaware that this is leadership 101.
All of this was not only predictable, it was predicted. The problem isn't the problems - it's that they didn't listen & now they're like "Who coulda known!?", making sure they'll learn nothing & fuck up again...

Businesses & affiliated entities should REALLY reconsider using ANY #Meta product.
By using WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook... they now automatically opt-in to their websites getting scraped, collected & used to train (likely) #MetaAI.
It includes the creation of fake accounts (so called test credentials¹) to gain further access, to restricted data.

1) #DeMeta

Software developers need to develop and socialise people...
NOT just develop the best software where we don't #trust anyone inside the #Mastodon software.
There is little #trust incremented between us.
#Caturday pictures or this level of distant exchange is nice but shallow.
Software alone doesn't grow a deeper social #movement (1-way posts etc).
The 1 #question for me and people in tech is:
When are you going to push past just #tech and #socialise people as part of your core #work also?

Character.ai, a startup that let people create customizable AI chatbots to interact with, has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. @jasonkoebler of @404mediaco says the filling demonstrates that the economics of AI don't work.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy claimed that a Ukrainian strike on the data centers of Yandex, a large Russian tech company, had led to a sudden decrease in bot activity, and the claim went viral. It's not true. Anna Merlan of @motherjonesmag explains what actually happened — and why we were all so keen to believe the rumor.
