@Pearl22 ich würde wahrscheinlich einen für mehrere Zwecke nehmen (wie ich es euch mit garam masala gemacht habe). Ich hätte jetzt behauptet, dass die von der Zusammenstellung gar nicht so unähnlich sind?

I've tried and failed to follow a session plan the previous two days... Making a list sometimes helps, so here's what I'm looking forward to at the last day of #CablesOfResistance

Cables Of Hope - socialising digital platforms instead of reforming the status quo
(@alineblankertz@indieweb.social @malteengeler@legal.social )

First talk of today's #CablesOfResistance: a talk by Dr. Silvia Weko from #FAU (the university not the union) on the role of big tech in energy transition through cloud computing. Nice to see a nuanced view on the technologies followed by an analysis on how this leads to bi-directional, structural dependencies between energy and cloud computing companies. As noted yesterday in the keynote: interoperability only works between a small few cloud companies.

@halbwach @ErikUden ich bin ja jetzt keine Expert*in für politische Beobachtung, aber würde erwarten, dass Opposition die Änderungen im Ganzen abgelehnt hatte.
Das allgemeine (und spannendere) Problem, dass die Gesetzesvorhaben nicht vollständig angesehen/verstanden werden, ist leider nichts neues und hat strukturelle Gründe (kurze Zeitabständen und intransparente Darstellung, siehe Diskussion rund um Synopsenpflicht).

@rupert @tante there's an obvious connection to a critique of capitalism here, but I don't think that's the whole story, since we're seeing lots of open source projects both using and doing LLM stuff. It's not really a clean cut between open source and closed source anymore (it probably never was, though..)

@rupert @tante I was thinking of a different perspective - a lack of appreciation for quality in IT overall.
Obviously there are many people out there wo maintain their projects with care, even in commercial settings. But thinking back to when I was a teenager, the "have you tried turning it off and on again" approach was already the norm. Society already accepted IT is a mess and this makes it hard to see how the impact of AI on quality is harmful, even as it leads to more systematic problems.

So eine Woche war es:Ich habe heute Nachmittag im Arbeitskalender der vergangenen Woche geschaut und Termine von Montag gesehen, wovon ich dachte, dass das doch schon mindestens zwei Wochen her wäre.
