Sadly I have nightmares now hahaha I AM mid rebuilding but am I not totally sure if I have a way to prevent that. I have a branch that uses local NLP and one that uses LLM API to rewrite summaries but $$$

Sorry it looks bad to you! They are being converted from new lines in the alert description. I messed with changing returns to spaces etc but it doesnt look any better cause specifically the CNA you are talking about is the ONE who allows submitters to write a book, I almost excluded them initially

We should just crowdfund a WAF w/ MDR service and then we just force all of .gov into it because you know for a fact they need it

KNOW YOUR RIGHTS IN CASE OF ICE: CONOCE TUS DERECHOS EN CASO DE ENCUENTRO CON ICE:

DO NOT OPEN YOUR DOOR. ICE cannot enter your home without a warrant signed by a judge. Tell the agents to show you the warrant by sliding it under the door. NO ABRAS TU PUERTA. ICE no puede entrar a tu casa sin una orden firmada por un juez. Diles a los agentes que te muestren la orden deslizándola debajo de la puerta.

ASK THEM TO LEAVE. If ICE doesn't have a warrant, tell them you do not consent for them to enter your home and ask them to leave. At work, ICE cannot enter employee-only areas without permission. 2 PÍDALES QUE SE VAYAN. Si ICE no tiene una orden judicial, diles que no das tu consentimiento para que entren a tu casa y pídeles que se vayan. En el trabajo, ICE no puede ingresar a áreas exclusivas para empleados sin permiso.

REMAIN SILENT. You have the right to remain silent. If the agents ask you questions, tell them, "I wish to remain silent." PERMANECE EN SILENCIO. Tienes derecho a permanecer en silencio. Si los agentes te hacen preguntas, diles: "Deseo permanecer en silencio".

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too.

EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them.

I have one caller confirmed, and another pending. Looking to fill the last slot for next Friday afternoon!

I would be immensely interested in seeing a case related to this tbh. I agree with you fully but I need something to show other people like “See?”

And here's the link to EFF's security guides again.

The trick about digital security that most people learn the hard way: You learn your threat model is worse than you know about 8 months too late. 😬

If you want to understand why healthcare pricing is horrific, the first thing to know is that our system puts 100% of the credit risk for deductibles, copays and co-insurance on hospitals and doctors. That's insane.

Someone Made a Dataset of One Million Bluesky Posts for 'Machine Learning Research' A Hugging Face employee made a huge dataset of Bluesky posts, and it’s already very popular.

New from 404 Media: Bluesky may have said it won't use user data to train generative AI, but someone else just published a dataset of million Bluesky posts for "machine learning research". Already very popular dataset, your data may be scraped www.404media.co/someone-made...

I am currently refactoring and editing my CVE tracking infrastructure projects and there may be short service outages while I move hosts next week

Bot for here shouldnt be affected more than any outage before, and I will be closely monitoring. Will keep you posted 🙂

My CVE bot could appreciate longer skeets actually. CVE description data is extremely variable and without NLP, the character limit has the opportunity to really leave a lot to wish for. The amount of text modification I do on the backend is insane too lol

My static html website went down Thursday because I tried to integrate an API I built into it and murdered it dead with certificate shenanigans
So I built a React app now that is => the old one with a lot of plans for further improvements and it’s live now and what am I doing with my life send skeet
