Alles neu macht der Mai! 🌸 Und: Macht uns Chat GPT dümmer?
🙌 🆕 Unser Podcast hat jetzt einen neuen Namen: Bye bye „Frauen und Technik“, hello „They Talk Tech“!
✨ Außerdem Svea fragt @evawolfangel ob sie ein Geheimnis hat und die antwortet (natürlich ehrlich 😇).
🧠⚡ 🎧 Und zum Schluss ein echtes Highlight: Lea Schönherr vom Helmholtz-Zentrum für Informationssicherheit ist zu Gast. Sie forscht zu KI und Stimmen.
👄💻 Perfekt passend zu Evas Story mit dem Scammer…
Interessantes Interview in der taz mit einer Astronomin über die Kolonialisierung des Weltalls und des Himmels durch Großkonzerne, Staaten und Tech-Bros, die ihre vielen schlechten Ideen (Herrschaft und Ausbeutung) auf der Erde zunehmend ins All exportieren.
Dabei zerstören sie nicht nur mit Raketenstarts und Weltraumschrott immer weiter die Umwelt auf der Erde, sondern mit dem zunehmend erschwerten Blick auf den Nachthimmel, auch kulturelle Erben der Menschheit und wichtige Orientierungshilfen für viele Tiere.
Holen wir uns den Sternenhimmel von den verdammten Milliardären zurück!

This is the single greatest examination of why so many people are falling for the myth that #LLM / #AI tools are "intelligent" or actually reasoning about the output they give.
It draws a parallel to how psychics operate & how we fall for it.
It also shines light on why the grift has become so widespread & why so many #tech leaders are doubling down.
It's no more real that a psychic knows your future than an LLM is problem solving, thinking or even analyzing anything.

Canadians using Twitter/X are being bombarded by misleading right-wing posts designed to boost Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre and tarnish the reputation of Mark Carney.
The FT’s analysis finds a growing volume of that misinformation is coming not from Russia or China, but the United States.

Protect your Site with a DOOM Captcha.
Guillermo Rauch [CEO of Vercel], a frontend-as-a-service product, just used the company's AI site builder to come up with a new twist on CAPTCHA’s, one that invites users to play the classic first person shooter game DOOM and killing at least three monsters — on nightmare mode.
#doom #retro #pixelart #gaming #captcha #it #security #privacy #programming #engineer #media #webdev #tech #art #news
![We all know that “Can it run DOOM?” is the first question of a hardware hacker. The 1993 first person shooter from id Software defined an entire genre of games, and has since been made open source, appearing on almost everything.
Announcing his latest innovation on New Year's Eve, Guillermo Rauch's Doom CAPTCHA adds to a lengthy list of notable [and more serious/useful] feats, including authorship of Next.js, Mongoose and Socket.IO, among other open source projects. The Doom CAPTCHA might take the title for most fun, though.
That is, if you can cope with Doom on nightmare mode [the highest difficulty], which makes the demonic enemies harder to kill and more aggressive. Your correspondent did manage it on the first try, once I remembered that it's not immediately obvious how to strafe, and was left with a meager 19 percent health and a suitably bloodied and battered status bar face.
Since most web users find even the most basic CAPTCHA an annoying hoop to jump through, I don't see the nightmare Doom version gaining much traction outside the most sadistic devs implementing it as a joke or to intentionally annoy people.](https://inne.city/photo/preview/640/317906 "We all know that “Can it run DOOM?” is the first question of a hardware hacker.

So here’s [Guillermo Rauch] DOOM captcha, in which you must gun down three bad guys to proceed.
It’s a WebAssembly application as you might have guessed, and while it’s difficult to shake that idea from the early 90’s that you needed a powerful computer to run DOOM, in reality it shows just how powerful WebAssembly is, as well as how far we’ve come in three decades.
The captcha prefer a few different entry points instead of always playing the same level, and I were always more handy with the mouse than the keyboard back in the day, but it’s certainly a bit of fun. It’s worth noting that simply playing the game isn’t enough to verify your humanity — if you’re killed in the game before vanquishing the required three foes, you’ll have to start over. As the game is running at “Nightmare” difficulty, proving your worth might be a tad harder than you’d expect.

CAPTCHA programs that are used to determine whether a site visitor is a person or a bot come in pretty standard formats. Think text distortion [where users type the characters they see in a box amid other squiggles]; image recognition [you’re selecting, say, all the squares in a grid with a bicycle image]; and checkbox verification [you click on that box that reads: “I am not a robot”].](https://inne.city/photo/preview/640/317908 "[ImageSource: Guillermo Rauch]

Vanishing Culture: Punch Card Knitting via The Internet Archive
[Shared]Punch cards are a fascinating binary data storage format that aren’t just history—they’re still used by knitting machines today! Thanks to the Internet Archive and other collections, we still have access to historic punch cards, but there are some technical challenges to using them in the format they’re stored in. Meet a few folx working on those challenges.
