  • Résumé:

    Reconnaissance de la Palestine : Macron hésite encore Autour du président de la République, certains le pressent de reconnaître enfin la Palestine comme un État à part entière. Emmanuel Macron consulte, réfléchit, jure qu’il cherche le bon moment. Comme… François Hollande, dix ans avant lui.

  • Israel, US said working to prevent ICC arrest warrant against Netanyahu

    Jump

  • Too bad neither Israel nor the US are member of the ICC. That gives them far less leverage, even though they will likely put pressure on some weaker members of the ICC.

  • Researchers unlock fiber optic connection 1.2 million times faster than broadband

    Jump

  • I remember the early 90's when fiber connection was being developed in research centers.

    Researchers had found a way to transmit all of a country's phone calls' bandwidth through a simple fiber cable. Then, they wondered: what could we use this for?

    This was a few years before the explosion of the internet...

  • Protesters throw soup at Mona Lisa in Paris

    Jump

  • That's why trade unions in France maintain their own security forces, trained to spot troublemakers or hysterical militants and reign them in. Perhaps is this what makes for successful démonstrations.

  • What prevents you from revoking your payment mandate at your bank?

    In Europe at least, your bank must honor this request and there's nothing your debtor can do about except spending 1000's to recover at most 3 months of payments with the current legal apparatus in Europe.

  • At CES, everything was AI, even when it wasn’t

    Jump

  • The product advertises its AI, the person who implemented the feature was hired as a data scientist, and the technical solution is called logistic regression.

  • A global watermarking standard could help safeguard elections in the ChatGPT era

    Jump

  • I'm afraid forcing watermarking generated content is doomed to fail, for 2 reasons: first it has to be voluntary, second, watermarking can always be removed if one does not care about preserving the exact content.

    Rather, I believe systematically signing original content may alleviate some of the issues created by algorithmic content generation.

  • Russia has lost 87% of troops it had prior to start of Ukraine war, according to US intelligence assessment

    Jump

  • Could be both. After all, red is both the color of communism and republicans. May be this is enough commonalities to confuse a MAGA hat wearer

  • Wikimedia Foundation calls on US Supreme Court to strike laws that threaten Wikipedia

    Jump

  • Does this means we can invade truth social or reddit/conservative and they won't be allowed to ban their contradictory?

  • Ban private jets to address climate crisis, says Thomas Piketty

    Jump

  • Then a docking tax in domestic harbors matched to the carbon tax would seriously reduce the usage of those yachts.

  • AI beats human sleuth at finding problematic images in research papers

    Jump

  • As commonly said: the product advertises its new AI feature. The job posting of the person who implemented it was 'data scientist', and the technique used is called logistic regression.

    Well, in this context, it's more image comparison or some other simple technique not even relying on a training dataset.

  • Manuel de Fonctionnement de l'Utilisateur

    Jump

  • "Mode d'emploi" est la traduction attendue.

    Le second "de" se rattache au substantif qui le précède immédiatement, à savoir "fonctionnement" et non aux mots précédents.

    Certes on comprend le sens parce qu'on baigne dans les anglicismes, mais cela n'empêche la traduction d'être inexacte.

  • More than $35 million has been stolen from over 150 victims since December — ‘nearly every victim’ was a LastPass user

    Jump

  • At one of my clients, a large institution, they go further: you're not allowed to use the local browser's password manager. And still have to abide by the usual password rules: rotate every 3 months, complex passwords, etc.

    As a result,, users store a plain text file on their desktop (some go as far as printing it), that conveniently allows them to retrieve their passwords.

    Too much security kills security.

  • Langue française : qui a son mot à dire pour l’évolution de la langue française ?

    Jump

  • Les instances officielles gardiennes de la langue: académie et CELF, ne sont pas d'accord avec toi.

    Certes beaucoup de linguistes moins conservateurs font beaucoup de bruit et s'offusquent de ce qu'ils assimilent a du sexisme (alors que par ailleurs les mêmes vont se scandaliser qu'on assimile genre grammatical et sexe)

    Il n'en demeure pas moins que la disparition du genre grammatical, a terme, devrait permettre de résoudre de façon simple et élégante tout un tas de problèmes bien réels que l'écriture inclusive ne fait qu'exacerber au lieu de les résoudre.

    En plus, c'est une tendance universelle.

  • Langue française : qui a son mot à dire pour l’évolution de la langue française ?

    Jump

  • En fait, ce n'est pas le genre neutre qui a disparu, mais le neutre qui a absorbé le masculin.

    Je suis entièrement d'accord que, plutôt de complexifier inutilement les choses avec l'écriture inclusive, faire disparaitre le genre féminin serait la solution la plus logique pour satisfaire les ultra féministes

  • Labeled Climate Culprits, European Farmers Rebel Over New Standards

    Jump

  • Well, if we want to feed everyone in Europe and not spend 50% of our revenue on food like humanity has before the 19th century, we will have to keep an industrial agriculture, specially now that population is triple what it was then.

    Europe's goals wrt. agriculture are myopic.

    Specially when we consider that organic farming emits between 12 and 50% more greenhouse gases per calorie produced than reasoned industrial agriculture.

  • An Iowa school district is using ChatGPT to decide which books to ban. Official: "It is simply not feasible to read every book" for depictions of sex.

    Jump

  • Now the Satanists have to declare the Kama sutra and other erotica as sacred books to circumvent this ban.

  • AI Is Starting to Look Like the Dot Com Bubble

    Jump

  • Crypto is very useful in defective economies such as South America to compensate the flaws of a crumbling financial system. It's also, sadly, useful for money laundering.

    Fir these 2 uses, it should stay functional.
