Labeling datasets is costly process. When you dont opt out, you’re letting them build a labelled dataset on you-specifically for free.

Same for me: just say no, and they say OK. Effortless but the option is totally invisible.

The irony is, I’ve seen the staff stop using the face scanner for everyone halfway through the line to speed things up. So its not saving time, just costing money to increase surveillance.

Yeah, cookies, account logins, and other stuff make it hard too. Ex: randomly exploring gmail emails at different times of day, but not actually marking emails as read.

Psychology. Ever see ring doorbell footage where the owner says “drop the package” and people do? Its not like the owner could do anything, but for some reason it makes people behave differently.

Here’s a very similar question I asked here a few months ago: “Privacy respecting ring doorbell” https://lemm.ee/post/8165932

The clients are source available for telegram though

I mean technically the client is verifiable if you use discord in a browser tab… and verify it every time you load the web page… 🙃

I didnt upvote the other python-beginer friendly meme cause it wasn’t accurate. But this one is on point.

Partially buried housing (ground cooling effect)

Distros should ship with this this under /readme.jpg

Don’t forget the fully fledged remote desktop thats built in, WebVR (which is being replaced with Web XR), Web Bluetooth, Web USB (aka Web Serial), the API’s for notifications, ambient light sensors, an entire transactional database (indexed DB), the language translation API, the Gamepad API (videogame controllers), hardware passkeys (yubikey), speech to text, text-to-speech, webGL, webGPU, webworkers, service workers, an entire suite of cryptography tools, GPS location, battery, vibration, FileSystem API, picture-in-picture API, WebRTC, WebSensors, etc.

And then, on top of all that, building a miniture OS-kernel so that tasks can be sandboxed scheduled/executed and prevent 1 tab from crashing everything or hogging resources.

Kinda surprised nobody has said this: start your own instance. Seriously, thats the power of the fediverse.

The sorting algorithm(s)

Ever since the accidental event that was interpreted as war, no not the one in 1957, not the one in 1958, or the other one in 1958, not the one in the 60’s or 70’s. The one in the 80’s. No not that one, the other one in the 80’s. Yeah that one. Anyways, ever since that one happened and triggered nuclear armageddon there hasn’t been much activity at all. Give it another couple millennia and maybe more complex organisms will roam the earth again.

Fair warning, I was only taking Hon’s word for it in my original comment.

That said, the magic term that will get you a flood of journal articles is “induced pluripotent stem cells ( iPSCs)” and this article a good overview/context to the work.

I’ll edit my comment to include the link

We can revert normal human bloodcells into stem cells and then into specialized cells like neurons. It was an incredible breakthrough several years ago that nobody seems to know. There’s been recent developments too

I only found out about it when I was talking to Hon (the lead on this project), and asked him where he got the neurons for playing pong, and he said “I got them from myself”.
