How can anyone be sure your app interfaces will remain stable from version to version, so you won't destroy important apps just by upgrading Nextcloud?

You already destroyed even featured apps like "News" and "Social." Nobody wants to expend effort for apps you'll discard on a junk heap simply by failing to acknowledge regression bugs. How can we trust your interfaces are worth learning now?



Espadas de plomo

---

Cuenta la leyenda que el emperador romano Cómodo gustaba de bajar a la arena del circo a batirse en duelo con los gladiadores. Enfundado en una ornamentada armadura, se hacía llamar 'Hércules reencarnado', y como Hércules, cuando su espada golpeaba los gladios de sus rivales estos estallaban en mil pedazos ante el impacto, ante el asombro y la algarabía del populacho.

No se puede ganar una partida si el otro tiene las cartas marcadas. Al final hay que romper la baraja y construir alternativas en otros lugares más verdes, lejos de nazis y trolls y bots porno.

O puedes quedarte a "dar la batalla" con tu espada de plomo.

lo de "bar nazi" se ajusta bastante a la realidad de Twitter

I think the #GovernableSpaces book tour just ended:)

The recording is now available from my conversation yesterday with the brilliant technology scholar and activist Lilly Irani, hosted by no less than the Internet Archive—watch it here: archive.org/details/governable…

lovely! That market has some great light, especially in the covered section.

Solar farms can help INCREASE biodiversity.

Critics often claim that they are an environmental disaster leading to a loss in biodiversity.

But research shows: Solar farms tend to have more species of plant, insect & bird than equivalent farm fields.

La IA entrenada con IA basura produce basura

A medida que proliferen las páginas web basura escritas por la IA, los modelos que se basan en esos datos sufrirán las consecuencias

technologyreview.es//s/16561/l…

in reply to Sursiendo

me parece tan surrealista el artículo. "Científicos con teorías conspiranóicas de una tecnología creada por científicos". Desde el principio se trata de conocer sus limitaciones y de poco en poco vaya mejorando paralelamente a la tecnología.

Simplemente están publicando resultados, basándose en modelos actuales como ejemplo. Pero eso no limita el que las teorías en que se basan y los lenguajes no permitan seguir evolucionándolo. No estamos ni al comienzo de todo ésto

la primera suerte de implementación de una IA en una máquina de cálculo data de 1951, Alan Turing con su Mark I. Una máquina de 5 toneladas con 16*3 metros y 2,5 de alto, y que podía jugar al ajedrez.

Fue en 1956 cuando se acuñó el término "Inteligencia Artificial" como tal, para referirse a los estudio de recrear inteligencia por medio de ordenadores

in reply to 🅰️nt⊡nio Vid⁂l

ChatGPT es sólo uno de esos resultados, pero IA se lleva aplicando a diferentes niveles (módulos) desde hace mucho en software de laboratorios, autoedición, arquitectura, aeroespacial, etc..
in reply to 🅰️nt⊡nio Vid⁂l

en 1972 un Doctor en una universidad ya chateaba en msdos con una IA rudimentaria, "Chatterbox". En los 90 la revista Micromania distribuía una especie de Shareware con una cara parlante que le preguntabas cosas. También IBM y su Deep Blue, dándose de leches con Kaspárov.

Entre los nazis soltando bulos por doquier y ahora "qué viene la IA, es nuestra perdición..". Bajemos un poco todos a tierra. Es una herramienta más

in reply to 🅰️nt⊡nio Vid⁂l

@hormiga sí, es una evolución, pero que afecta gravemente a poblaciones enteras, por el gasto de agua y de energía, por el aumento de uso de minería, por los desechos electrónicos, por las emisiones de co2... como muchas industrias sí, que se benefician unos pocos, y la mayoría las sufren...
in reply to Sursiendo

totalmente de acuerdo. Por eso mismo no es sostenible la dependencia de grandes corporaciones y sus modelos depredadores.

Hay sectores más tochos en que el cambio es más lento debido a la misma infraestructura como país o sociedad.

En cuanto a la revolución tecnológica y digital sí tenemos más a mano "desconectar" de estas corporaciones, adoptando modelos más respetuosos. Se trata de trastear en PCs antiguos y montar mini servidores a nivel personal, entre amigos, vecinos o barrios

in reply to Sursiendo

crónica de una noticia anunciada. Ya se conocía el efecto de la degración de contenido usado para aprender en una IA e irá pasando, pero dudo que lleguemos a un colapso de los datos, antes se encontrarán métodos de filtrado o de mejora en los aprendizajes.
Llevamos más de 50 años con IA y ahora es cuando el nivel de cálculo computacional abre las puertas de forma masiva, pero no se ha dejado de evolucionar ni se dejará.
Igualmente, hay que encontrar un balance justo para todo esto


I continue to be flummoxed by stuff like this. I'm on Mastodon Social. @Aviation_Librarian is on Mastodon Online. Both are operated by Mastodon gGmbH (basically, @Gargron). Why in the heck do I now need to click through to see more replies on Mastodon Online? What am I being protected from, especially since Eugen runs both shows? #SMH
in reply to Eugen Rochko

@Aviation_Librarian It seems odd that I have been here regularly for quite a while, yet have never seen those notifications until today.

in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

I absolutely adore the original film. That said something that often seems to be missing from franchise spinoffs after, including this trailer, is the sense of satire suggesting that the Federation may actually be a propaganda spewing cause of the war with the bugs rather than just the "might is right" good guys.

I miss the poking fun at unthinking American militarism that I loved in Starship Troopers.
