I'm politically affiliated with that rich nasa furry that makes six figures.

rsh , in US bans TikTok owner ByteDance, will prohibit app in US unless it is sold

They should have made the ban take effect immediately, with the possibility of being turned back on after sale.

As a human I feel like I can make a damned good guess as to someone's politics by looking at them. We're really, really good at picking up clues from faces, even if we're not conscious as to why we're getting those clues.

Despite being an avid shooter, I'm very liberal. No one I've talked to, or been around, regarding guns has ever assumed I'm conservative. In fact, I've noticed they're damned careful to dance around politics around me.

Maybe it's the long hair? OTOH, I can be red necked out in my attire and holding an AR-15 and people still won't being up conservative views. And I'm in a very conservative area where it's safe to assume a guy that looks like me is a Trump voter.

I could see an AI correlating 10,000 facial cues to make an accurate guess. Interesting to think on.

"About as predictive as job interviews for job success"

So really fucking bad?

r = 0.23

Lmao.

Is this a joke? This isn't even close to a correlation. If anything this is evidence of a lack of correlation.

    I wonder if the samourai app still leaks the xpubs, and where will all those api calls end up now that the domains has been hijacked by the cops.

    Nice. Hashicorp is already in the "fuck around" phase of closing up their software licenses using contributor agreements and now everyone that uses their software will enjoy a delightful "finding out" (massive price increases and stagnation).

    These are some good papers to focus on for how to smell academic bullshit.

    Umbrias , in Police Chiefs Call for Solutions to Access Encrypted Data in Serious Crime Cases

    Their specific argument doesn't work super well when you consider that one end of the e2ee can willingly reveal the other's messages. Which means their real complaint here is that they can't perpetually scan all communication without permission...

    Clent , in Teens Who Allegedly Stole Cars Face Two Extra Years for Bragging About It on Social Media

    Why would a country discourage people posting evidence of their crimes?

    FluorideMind ,

    Brainless.

    Woozythebear ,

    Because glorifying crimes will lead to other people wanting to do the same crimes. They are trying to prevent crime instead of just reacting to crime.

    Although I think taking away 2 years of someone's life for it is absolutely absurd and cruel.

    Clent ,

    Citation needed.

    If glorifying crime makes people commit crime, then the rise of true crime addiction would have lead to more crime.

    Aux ,

    2 years is not enough.

    jqubed , in Leicester streetlights take ransomware attack personally, shine on 24/7
    @jqubed@lemmy.world avatar

    I suppose from a safety perspective it’s better that they stay on during the day than off at night. I’m surprised they’re networked and affected at all, though. Most streetlights I’ve seen appear to work on a relatively simple light sensor. They turn on when it’s dark enough and off when it’s light enough, which means if it gets unusually dark from a particularly strong storm they come on during the day.
