First, I used #maysketchaday as a way to learn and study different topics! So I made a series of clouds
New month, new thread!
This time let me talk about what used to be my favorite challenge: #maysketchaday
I discovered this challenge in 2018 and this is the first picture I made!
“Google DeepMind UK staff move to unionise to challenge links to Israeli military”
by Areeb Ullah in Middle East Eye
“Staff inside #Google #DeepMind are attempting to unionise in order to challenge the tech company's ties with the Israeli government and its decision to sell artificial intelligence technologies to defence groups”
AN EDUCATED PROLETARIAT
they said the quiet part out loud
war on education was always class war
There's a lot that could still be improved in #swad, but I don't get that "proof of work" idea out of my mind, so I started a branch to work on it:
https://github.com/Zirias/swad/pull/1
I really think it makes sense when you want some publicly known "guest login" which is still protected against #bots. Not sure yet whether this will succeed, we will see!
It certainly won't be as "fancy" as #anubis, but do the same thing functionally: Require the client to find a #nonce that, combined with a server-provided #challenge, hashes to something with 'n' leading zeros using #sha256. In contrast to anubis, swad won't have to proxy everything (but rely on nginx' auth_request), and no challenge will be issued when the user logs in with credentials some *other* credentials checker accepts.

“"Improv-brain" relates to LLM systems’ tendency to not challenge input but just roll with it. […] LLMs try to go "yes … and" on whatever you tell them and rarely challenge prompts. Which is why a suboptimal prompt can lead them astray so easily.”
