Over the years I noticed that search engines, all of them have gotten worse. So I asked Kagi's AI about it
The search engine might be ignoring the negative keywords.
Search engines do not always perfectly exclude terms specified with a minus sign
The algorithm might be associating very strongly
The algorithm may be programmed to still show images of even with the negative keywords.
I would say that this all have to do with this one:

It's a shame because cities are the product of generations building on common interests. Very hard to make them work, very easy to fall to ruin. Once they fail it's not worth bringing them back.

One reason I think that complex #AI software projects are never going to happen is that the code it generates has no *intent* behind it.
Senior software devs spend an extraordinarily large amount of time reading existing code and asking not just HOW they work, but WHY they were written that way. Reading long-maintained, complex source code is more than mere reading comprehension; it’s LITERARY CRITIQUE. You’re constantly trying to understand the thought process and motivation of whoever wrote that code, in the hopes of gaining insight into their frame of mind.
Well, AI code has no motivation, thought process, nor frame of mind. While the code it generates MIGHT work correctly (a big assumption) at the point it was extruded, there is no plausible way of maintaining that code, and at some point of complexity (sooner than you think!) maintainability becomes critical.
#softwareEngineering #softwareDevelopment
…
But WHY do we need to understand the motivation behind a pile of code? Because it reduces amount of COMPLEXITY we need to hold in our mind. Understanding an original author’s mindset helps to define a direction of development that will very likely yield successful results that are harmonious with existing code.
And as any senior software dev knows, complexity is the greatest enemy of engineering, and anything that helps constrain the beast increases the likelihood of producing error-free progress.
AI is great at producing code of little consequence, things so basic or throwaway that no deep understanding is needed to maintain it. To me, that constrains its practical use to generating basically SCAFFOLDING and BOILERPLATE upon which your real code is built, essentially making the (fancy and custom) GRID PAPER on which you will actually inscribe your design. Let it write your for-loops, but don’t let it write the functions it calls.
#ai #softwareEngineering #softwareDevelopment
…
#AI coding tools can be time-saving automation at the hands of an already-senior developer, but that’s only because it utterly relies on the motivation and depth of experience already found in the HUMAN that’s using it to shape it into something worthwhile. Like a seasoned musician toying with analog synthesizers and sequencers, finding serendipity in the semi-random stream of patterns that are suitable to be molded into actual works requires a human editor. AI itself cannot offer that wisdom.
AI will never be a replacement for expertise. It does not compensate for a lack of skill. It offers nothing to replace an understanding of the fundamental principles of the craft. It will not turn a junior engineer into a senior one.
And it will not create a complex product, at least not one that won’t crumble the moment you have to maintain it.

Οι εκδόσεις «Ελεύθερος Τύπος» μεγάλωσαν γενιές αναρχικών με βιβλία από διάφορα ρεύματα της επαναστατικής σκέψης όπως είναι ο ελευθεριακός κομμουνισμός, ο συμβουλιακός κομμουνισμός, οι καταστασιακοί, η κοινωνική οικολογία κ.α.
Εμφανίστηκαν μεταπολεμικά (1975) με το βιβλίο του Μιχαήλ Μπακούνιν «Η παρισινή κομμούνα του 1871 και η ιδέα του κράτους».

Israeli fighter jets targeted and killed injured Palestinian #journalist Mahmoud Essa in Gaza. He had survived a previous round of Israeli airstrikes, during which rescue teams pulled him out alive, despite losing an eye and undergoing a leg amputation.
Despite his will to survive, Israel deliberately targeted him as he stood at the doorstep of his home, bringing a final end to his life.

At ESA’s Living Planet Symposium, scientist have unveiled how the combination of different long-term, high-resolution satellite datasets from ESA’s Climate Change Initiative is shedding new light on the South American Gran Chaco – one of the world’s most endangered dry forest ecosystems. These data reveal, in remarkable clarity, that fire is the primary driver of widespread, accelerating deforestation across the region.

Hi!
I have a subsonic instance running but I rarely listen to Albums. Stuff I really like are DJ performances like by the channel The Moment.
So I thought: why not download and self-host them before Google makes Youtube sign-in only, (like Elon and Facebook did).
That stuff is probably quite hard to organize. But the type of music simply breaks the common services, like Jellyfin, or Subsonic.
I know of funkwhale. But I'd like to keep the contents private. I just wanna listen to music at work (so being open to the web is a plus). I thought funkwhale is a bit too... "social" for me. I'm a (re)uploader, not creator.
You got any ideas? Maybe a youtube-cloner with audio-only support? (I know how to download videos already)
Edit: Of course, I'd download the sets legally, e.g. from their patreon discord, or whatever. ;)
Also: I know that restricting it to my VPN would be ideal for security and legality reasons. But that's a bit inconvenient. And I want to check my options.

Doesn’t get any more secure than a battle-tested web server hosting simple MP3 files and a text file.
Convenience might be a thing, though. I’m in the Apple ecosystem so their Podcasts app shows that feed on all devices and tracks listening progress, etc.
If I didn’t have that, I’m still a lifetime customer with PocketCasts and PocketCasts Web. So, that’s that. But if you don’t have anything similar in place, a self-hosted streaming server might be the best way to go, yes.

170 people arrested for Internet posts in Germany
bluewin.ch/en/news/internation…
The German police just conducted 6am raids on 170 people accused of Internet "hate speech".
Many were arrested for "insulting politicians", such as calling Merz a "moron". I kid you not ... that shows that he is indeed a monumental moron and a pathetic loser! He has already shown that he is a hypocrite and an abysmal liar.
The ones only justifiable arrests would be those who directly call for violence. In Germany, praising the gay Marxist Adolf is still illegal. I have no idea why anyone would do that. He destroyed the country and mass-murdered 8 to 12 million people, including hundreds of thousands for expressing their opinions. Praising a fascist as opposition to a - for now - much milder form of fascism is retarded.
Since this morning, the German police have been carrying out a nationwide operation against suspected authors of hate speech and incitement to hatred on the Internet. According to the German Press Agency, more than 170 operations are planned.blue News

“Additionally, our findings challenge the notion that only a few rogue entities enable surveillance. Rather, we found that the normalization of targeting humans permeates the field. This normalization is especially striking given patterns of obfuscation. We reveal obfuscating language that allows documents to avoid direct mention of targeting humans, for example, by normalizing the referring to of humans as 'objects' to be studied without special consideration. Our results indicate the extensive ties between computer-vision research and surveillance.”
