fair enough. i guess the usa never did a great job ar limiting their presidents power. that way he can extend his reach way further down, than he should…

well google always displays the locally official names and borders. so just business as usual.

but why does the president of the usa get to decide what places are called? isn’t there a cartography department or something?

as @[email protected] already mentioned: GitLab CI

Jenkins is a CI application from before CI was cool. GitLab CI is integrated and can trigger on certain events. Additionally you mentioned, that you want to publish on a public repo anyway.

You are probably are comfortable with containers. So GitLab CI should be easy for you to learn - as it pretty much starts up a container to do certain tasks. I’ve seen suggestions for Kubernetes, which for sure is the more mature solution. But i would question, whether you need the added functionality and complexity of K8s for a home setup.

To gain access to your local network, you can use the runner for a secure connection (as described by damnthefilibuster). or you could SSH into the machine, as long as you have it in a DMZ. Drawback is that you have to be more sure about your network infrastructure. Benefit is that it is a more general approach. Obviously you need to store all certs, keys and preferably even addresses in secrets, not the .gitlab-ci.yml.

As you can see from this thread, there are many ways which lead to rome. My advice is to start with something simple and lightweight, which you understand. adding complexity down the road is easier, than removing it.

The main angle is not to ‘poisen’ the training set. it is to waste time, energy and resources. the site loads deliberately slow and produces garbage, which has to be filtered out.

as i said: not a silver bullet. but at least some threads where tied up collecting garbage painfully slow. as the data is useless, whatever their cleanup process is, has more to do. or it might even be tricked into discarding the whole website, as the signal to noise ratio is bad.

so i would still say the author achieved his goal.

sure, it is easy to detect and they will. however, at the moment they don’t seem to be doing it. The author said this after deploying a POC:

Aaron B told 404 Media “If that’s, true, I’ve several million lines of access log that says even Google Almighty didn’t graduate” to avoiding the trap.

So no, it is not a silver bullet. but it is a defense strategy, which seems to work at the moment.

everyone of the top 1% has to be a megalomaniac. openly supporting nazis and displaying their symbols is an entirely different thing.

we are all numbers. lemmy.ca has a user number for you, your government has a number for you, your local library has a number for you.

that is just how a digital world works.

right now we don’t have any real customers that use it - as the plugin did not sell yet.

but from testing at customer sites with real people that would use it - we got only positive feedback. which is not hard to imagine: the RAG + LLM enables less experienced users to navigate a huge and complex network of information.

but it for sure is also a buzzword execs like to see: they talked to us because we have AI. saw that the main product is good. bought the main product and decided the AI is too expensive.

in the end it doesn’t matter to me. the 2w of AI was a fun sidequest and it left us with a passive boost for sales.

i know it is an unpopular opinion around here. but currently AI features open doors for sales. that is important.

for the software i help develop, we introduced an optional AI integration. just its presence allowed us to sell the main SW multiple times. the AI plugin was never sold so far.

investment AI: 2 weeks of gluecode. i am not concerned with finances, but that plugin is for sure net positive.

that’s the great thing: you don’t have to use it

as the screenshot shows, it is opt-in

i thought artificer is not a class in bg3

then stay at twitter 🤷‍♂️ for now blue sky is many people’s choice for a reason.

well, there are quite a lot of stupid things i did as a kid. kids just need to learn critical thinking through experience.

i would guess, that a large audience of youtube is kids: except retirees, they usually have the most free time.

that mentality is probably what most ppl started with. however, youtube burnt quite a lot of bridges. i would assume, that many ppl, just like me, wont do the 3 clicks to disable adblock for youtube.

It takes 20 years to build a reputation and five minutes to ruin it. If you think about that, you’ll do things differently.

not technically a fronted. however, if you use it mainly for downloading YT content, it will run into the same problem as many frontends.

Yes, I told someone to inform themselves before making assumptions. Which, I think, is a reasonable expectation.

The rest of the comment was pointing out how archive.org acts like any other public library and therefore should not be treated differently. This does not carry hostility against the person I am replying to.

Please inform yourself. In these comments and on their website, it is covered that they do not provide books freely. Just like any other library books can be borrowed exactly as many times as they own a copy.

Just like any other library they sometimes provide a download for Adobe Digital Edition, which manages your lends on books. But as your friend with DRM stripping tools for sure can confirm: DRM is just an annoyance for legitimate customers, it forces legitimate users to use specific applications, while pirates get the freedom to choose how they interact with the not any more protected media. But this is a discussion for another thread as archive.org treats copyrighted books just like any other library.

Please go to archive.org > Books > Books to Borrow

Select any book which strikes your fancy. You will see a reading excerpt, like flicking through pages in a library. if you have a free account, you can lend it for 1h at a time.
