i built an entire x86 CPU emulator in CSS (no javascript)

you can write programs in C, compile them to x86 machine code with GCC, and run them inside CSS

In the recent weeks our team identified several disinformation campaigns around the upcoming parliamentary election in Hungary, which appear to be conducted by the Storm-1516 operators. The election seem to be critical for the rule of Viktor Orban, the biggest Russian ally in EU

A comic in four panels:

Panel 1. Top view on the Gothic Sorceress room, she sits at her desk, sewing a square piece of fabric with focus. From the top of his perch, her AI Parrot bird watches with curiosity, intrigued by the focused effort required for the task.  
> AI Parrot: "Can I assist with optimizing your sewing technique?"  
> Gothic Sorceress: "No thanks."

Panel 2. Zooming in, the AI Parrot continue to suggest while the Gothic Sorceress still sewings with attention.  
> AI Parrot: "Would you like to review best practices for efficient and accurate crafting?"
> Gothic Sorceress: "No."

Panel 3. The Gothic Sorceress contemplates her work, holding the small piece of fabric up to the light to inspect it. She looks happy, proud, and relieved after the effort of creating a simple square piece of thin fabric. The AI Parrot listens, processing the lesson.  
> Gothic Sorceress: "You see, in an age of Avian Intelligence, making something imperfectly, with your own hands and mind, is an act of resistance."

Panel 4. The Gothic Sorceress stands behind the AI Parrot, who now has a gag made from the square fabric. The AI Parrot looks surprised, unable to speak. The Gothic Sorceress appears proud of her handiwork.  
> Gothic Sorceress: "And even better if this act can also shut you up for good!"

there's a disjuncture too between "open source AI hacker on bluesky" and "big AI company." the former are enthusiasts that have vastly different personalities and lifestyles than the kind of institutionalized personality the latter has

Programozóként nekem nagyon furi érzés volt végignézni, ahogy a technológia, ami előtte teljesen elképzelhetetlennek tűnt lassan egyre nagyobb munkafolyamatokat vesz át.

Az OpenAI-al (ami sokminden, de nem open) kapcsolatban szokott lenni az a kritika, hogy profit-érdekből az erőforrásaikat kutatás helyett a chatgpt/hasonló szolgáltatás futtatásába tolják. Szerintem ezzel együtt is tök gyorsan fejlődik a machine learning.

És emellé jött még a SFT, CoT, MoE, RLHF, DPO, RL w/ GRPO (Deepseek R1), tool use, agent és még sok egyéb pretraining-et követő megoldás, ami a gyakorlati használhatóságot javítja.

A frontier modellek (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini) működéséről elég keveset lehet tudni, de vannak nyílt modellek, amik (kis késleltetéssel) lekövetik őket teljesítményben. Emellett pedig aranyos kis grafikákat is megosztanak arról, hogy fix adat mellett mennyit javult a tanítás (kisebb a jobb).

A 2017-es transformer architektúra óta nagyon sokat fejlődött ez a terület. Ha félretesszük az adatok kérdését és csak az előtanítási fázist nézzük, akkor is.

Szerintem is túlhypeolt az x-risk, de nem azért mert ne lenne fejlődés a machine learningben. Hanem mert a megfelelő guidelineok betartásával a model megbolondulása sem tud különösebb kárt okozni. A villanyt pedig elég egyszerű lekapcsolni az adatközpontokban (igazából felkapcsolva tartani a nehéz).

Goulash: Orbán’s Spies in Brussels; Czech and Moldova Elections in the Spotlight - VSquare.org The Czech elections are barely off the stove, yet the winning chef is already struggling to mix the right coalition ingredients.

I don't like Magyar for his indifference on social issues, but he is not the same as Orbán at all. For one he is very much pro-EU and against Russia. And having Orbán's circle lose power can by itself have a positive impact on the state of rule of law and corruption.

This EU law banning unlocking story was untrue. The publication posting it retracted it in a subsequent story without updating the original.

2) xiaomitime.com/dont-panic-e...

The claims they cited were AI generated which they admit in the follow up story.

More than 100,000 people marched in Hungary’s annual Pride parade in Budapest on Saturday after Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s ban on the event backfired, turning what is usually a low-key parade into a mass rally against his government. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/28/w...

Hey, I found a filter that actually returns something: Dalarna, Djurmo, Hane. (no idea what that means)
It seems like you need the viewstate and some other fields in the body. And the content type header too. Otherwise it just returns the default page with just the form.
Demo based on yours.

Nice to know this exists, but from the docs:
> The response is opaque, meaning that its headers and body are not available to JavaScript.
That sounds like it'd defeat the purpose.

The site's CORS unfortunately doesn't allow you to do that from the client side. You'll either need to do that from the backend or use a cors proxy, which is pretty annoying.

Orbán’s Fidesz party proposes Russia-style crackdown on Hungary’s civil society The new bill fits into a pattern of democratic backsliding for the Central European country.

‼️🇭🇺 Democracy is dying in daylight in Hungary: Viktor Orbán’s regime is set to blacklist “foreign-funded” (including EU-funded) NGOs and media, then unleash the tax office to bleed them dry, issue fines and even shut them down.

It’s happening because the EU Commission simply doesn’t give a damn.
