I feel this can be bypassed the same way remote interviews have been passed, you have a talented dude A actually trained to pass whatever verification is needed, and whenever there’s privacy, it switches to dude B, while dude A moves to another recruitment process. I think I have heard about this kind of dude A offering his services online for anyone ready to pay.
Anyone else has never seen the face of one of their full remote colleague? I have one in my team, he does a good job though, however many they may be behind him.

Can it survive if Firefox goes down?

Ladybird is an open-source web browser developed by the Ladybird Browser Initiative, a nonprofit organization focused on development of the browser.[1] It is licensed under the BSD 2-Clause License.[2] An alpha release is planned in 2026,[3][4] beta release is expected in 2027, and a stable release for general public in 2028.[5] Originally a component of SerenityOS, it is now being developed as a standalone project.[6] The initiative is funded entirely through donations, with Cloudflare, FUTO, Shopify, and 37signals among its sponsors. Ladybird uses a new browser engine called LibWeb that is being created from scratch by the development team. Unlike SerenityOS, it will also use other open source libraries for development.[2] An ad blocking feature is planned.[7] Unlike most new web browsers, Ladybird does not rely on Chromium or Firefox and uses its own rendering engine and JavaScript engine.[8] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ladybird_(web_browser)

I think they always have used this tactic, there’s “socialist” in Nazi, they are just highly specific with who they want to socialize with.

What does a crow gulag looks like?

I am confused, why not just use an ad blocker?

Maybe it predicted your future man boobs.

There was a lot of ML bullshit from the big data bubble ~ 2010 and before ChatGPT, together with all of the fuss about data scientists. But now it’s a 100 times worse.

The link doesn’t work for me.

Even if the initial intention is positive, I think this degree of dependency on external services is not realistic even if mega corps were not as bad as they are currently.

Waiting for the milk

Could be that the unusual characters make the comment less readable.

What is the source of energy to produce the hydrogen? The carbon footprint of hydrogen is pretty bad unless you have abundent renewable energy.

This Wikipedia page agrees with this comment: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_oldest_universities_in_continuous_operation. It lists University of Bologna as the oldest one in continuous operation from 1180–1190.

It’s the authoritarian way, as seen in pretty much any country who had it.

I looked for the original article, abstract:

Human capital—encompassing cognitive skills and personality traits—is critical for labor market success, yet the personality component remains difficult to measure at scale. Leveraging advances in artificial intelligence and comprehensive LinkedIn data, we extract the Big 5 personality traits from facial images of 96,000 MBA graduates, and demonstrate that this novel" Photo Big 5" predicts school rank, compensation, job seniority, industry choice, job transitions, and career advancement. Using administrative records from top-tier MBA programs, we find that the Photo Big 5 exhibits only modest correlations with cognitive measures like GPA and standardized test scores, yet offers comparable incremental predictive power for labor outcomes. Unlike traditional survey-based personality measures, the Photo Big 5 is readily accessible and potentially less susceptible to manipulation, making it suitable for wide adoption in academic research and hiring processes. However, its use in labor market screening raises ethical concerns regarding statistical discrimination and individual autonomy.

I don’t have the time nor the expertise to read everything to understand how they take into account the bias that good looking white men with educated parents are way more likely to succeed at life.

I’m glad they finally had an easy to understand example of why depending on a closed source ecosystem from a foreign country is insane for any kind of public authority.

All of them have a negative side effects of the prescription is not respected. It seems the toxic dose per kilogram for aspirin is similar to the one for paracetamol, and the one for ibuprofen is about twice more.

Which is generally even safer than aspirin and ibuprofen.

Does that mean I will have more choice in which surveillance agency I want to be spied by?

I will never go on a second date for the life of me.
