Julia #Klöckner ist einfach moralisch, ethisch und persönlich ungeeignet das Amt der Bundestagspräsidentin auszuführen.

Außerdem ist sie parteipolitisch und das widerspricht ihrem Amt vollkommen.

I've been talking to GitHub and giving them feedback on their "create issues with Copilot" thing they have in the works.

Today I tested a version for them and using it I asked copilot to find and report a security problem in curl and make it sound terrifying.

In about ten seconds it had a 100-line description of a "catastrophic vulnerability" it was happy to create an issue for. Entirely made up of course, but sounded plausible.

Proved my point excellently.

Dobrindt nennt den int. Haftbefehl gegen Netanjahu „nur eine Ansicht“. Was kommt als nächstes?

Das Grundgesetz „nur ein Vorschlag“?

Das #Völkerrecht gilt - gerade wenn es unbequem ist. Der Int. Strafgerichtshof ist ein historischer Fortschritt, den wir nicht untergraben dürfen!

In 1934 the Nazis ended birthright citizen ship in Germany.

Jews, Roma, Black Germans, communists, trade unionists, and others were stripped of citizenship entirely. Their assets stolen and they were rounded up, they were thrown into vans by government agents and disappeared.

Seems familiar somehow. Remind me — what happened next?

Meanwhile, right now, in America….

I saw someone on LinkedIn talking about the ways to use LLMs on the #BlueTeam side of things and I have some bad news for those folks.

I tried a bunch to different systems and Google gave me the best answer overall because it was correct about it being a non standard URL and why, but obviously skids off the rails in the details.

This was the kind of "it can defend against phishing attacks" that were used as an example.

Is "sovereign washing" the new "privacy washing"?

Microsoft, Google, and AWS recently published “sovereign clouds”.

❌ BUT digital sovereignty doesn’t come from shiny new product names such as these “sovereign clouds” - which still must hand out data to US without a warrant based on the CLOUD Act and FISA.

✅ Digital sovereignty comes from full European legal and technical control. Everything else is nothing more than sovereign washing.

Der Verfassungsschutz warnt auf eine Anfrage des RedaktionsNetzwerks Deutschland (RND):

„Aufgrund der mittlerweile gefestigten Strukturen und der Aktionsorientierung der in 2024 neu entstandenen [rechtsextremen] Jugendgruppen ist insbesondere für Angehörige der LSBTIQ-Bewegung, linken Szene und Personen mit Migrationshintergrund eine abstrakte Gefährdung für Leib und Leben gegeben.“ https://www.rnd.de/politik/rechtsextreme-jugendgruppen-beschaeftigen-die-sicherheitsbehoerden-5EIXOFGC2NBJBNRTWRORMSD7J4.html

Great! A bunch of us here wanted it. Now it exists. 👍

It's a "dark archive" of the arXiv - a non-public backup to save the data in case of attack by hackers or the US government. The arXiv, I hope you know, is the biggest source of modern math and physics papers.

Who got the job done? The TIB: the Technische Informationsbibliothek, run by the Leibniz Information Centre for Science and Technology, in Hannover, Germany.

They write:

"The TIB has now set up a so-called dark archive for the arXiv content in order to be able to make the backed-up data accessible if the data stored in the USA is lost. The archive functions as a silent reserve: the complete copy of the content is stored decentrally at the TIB, but is not publicly accessible. This means that the data stock – almost 10 terabytes – is protected against potential outages and can be activated in an emergency.

The TIB is currently working on processes to keep the archive up to date: new submissions and updated versions must be backed up regularly in order to preserve the state of research as completely as possible.

“Building a Dark Archive is an expression of our longstanding commitment for a reliable, international academic provision, and as a partner of arXiv. Even though the Dark Archive today only works in the background, it is a key element in safeguarding digital research contents in the long term, because in case of a crisis, we could open the archive,” explains Dr Irina Sens, Deputy Director of the TIB."

We should call it the darXiv.

Unglaublich. Die EU knickt vor Trump ein statt die eigene Gesetze durchzusetzen die zum Schutz der Europäischen Bürger und Unternehmen eingeführt wurden.
