Allowing #Musk to use his position to favor xAI in any way, such as awarding it government contracts, encouraging federal agencies to unfairly target AI competitors, or imposing new regulations that limit exports will come at the expense of US technological, economic and cultural security and competitiveness. #blog #technology https://www.businessinsider.com/reid-hoffman-elon-musk-conflict-of-interest-trump-ai-policies-2024-11

If you're writing something a bit high-brow or "unpopular" (in the literal sense, of requiring expertise of specialization to interpret) -- either because it's very academic or technical, or written in a more literary style -- don't feel bad, if you don't get many responses to it. Your audience here, as everywhere, is a tiny subset of the overall population. Think more about targeting that audience with "discovery aids", like hashtags, or publishing to a relay where a lot of such people read, like devs.nostr1.com or theforest.nostr1.com. #Economics #Technology #Literature

I test out the new Inverter I got for my Solar eBike, which allows me to run anything you can plug into a house socket up to 1000 Watts. #diy #technology #survival https://ipfs.cahlen.org/ipfs/bafybeico6b2bzd4faxx4zhnzns36sg72bssierj6e6jigpm345lziqlqku/CahlenLee_20240430_SolareBikeInverter.mp4
I'm going to be experimenting with Magnetoculture in the Three Sisters Garden this year. Half of it will have the magnetized wires, the other half will not, and we'll see if there's a difference. #technology #diy #survival https://ipfs.cahlen.org/ipfs/bafybeicmg4hixphdx3djpmop4ywj4mo5hkv7v2s4skzsauhq6zqqibg35e/CahlenLee_20240429_MagnetocultureExperiment.mp4
I setup an automated system to water the entire garden on a timer, which allows me to go on longer adventures away from the farm without the plants dying. #gardening #outdoors #technology https://ipfs.cahlen.org/ipfs/bafybeifojhlw3is54v3nptsnzmvpwe2jgubckzwxikypdiye2ljauokwmq/CahlenLee_20240423_AutomatedWatering.mp4

Technology isn't politically neutral & people respond to incentives: Even the dumbest socialist will call for things they don't like to be taxed. But they fail to apply the same logic when it comes to taxing productivity. Greedy & wishful thinking seems to allow them to cling to the idea that intelligent & productive people won't change their behavior if they are punished for being productive. The effort to socialize the insurance system in the US is a decent example. The goal is to charge the healthy more in order to reduce the cost of being unhealthy. When my premiums quintupled I dropped my insurance & closed my bank accounts to avoid the fines. I had no desire to contribute to a system that was going to charge me more for being healthy. Using cash & bitcoin I was able to function just as well with no bank account. There has long been a push to eliminate cash, & to favor large corporations over small businesses, because all political parasites know that they have to reduce people's options in order to extract more from them. Bitcoin undermines all of that. Bitcoin creates an incentive to break all of their rules, & defy all of their regulations, in order to produce the best that you can, to trade for the hardest money ever created. The fact that bitcoin transactions cannot be censored makes it a tool of liberation. "Universal" healthcare programs are dead. "Universal" basic income (#UBI) is dead. #Socialism is ultimately dead. #Bitcoin kills them. #GunControl is dead. 3d printing & small scale manufacturing tools have killed it. #HateSpeech laws are ultimately dead, because #Nostr & #Keet will kill them. #Technology is not politically neutral. Better tech tends to favor individual #liberty & #freedom. #Humanity thrives to the degree that the desires of power hungry fools can be made irrelevant by technology.

There’s a new form of keyless car theft that works in under 2 minutes “Now that people know how a relay attack works… car owners keep their keys in a metal box (blocking the radio message from the car) and some car makers now supply keys that go to sleep if motionless for a few minutes (and so won’t receive the radio message from the car),” Tindell wrote in a recent post. “Faced with this defeat but being unwilling to give up a lucrative activity, thieves moved to a new way around the security: bypassing the entire smart key system. They do this with a new attack: CAN Injection.” #cybersecgirl #privacytechpro #hacking https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2023/04/crooks-are-stealing-cars-using-previously-unknown-keyless-can-injection-attacks/

Maybe this why so many of my female friends on #Nostr use pseudonyms: “Researchers find software repository GitHub approved code written by women at a higher rate than code written by men, but only if the gender was not disclosed” https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2016/feb/12/women-considered-better-coders-hide-gender-github Research from the Guardian article is from 2013, maybe there are newer/more uplifting numbers? If the topic interests you, another great researcher on the topic is Prof. Iris Bohnet https://ofew.berkeley.edu/sites/default/files/when_performance_trumps_gender_bias_bohnet_et_al.pdf
