Netflix lists $900,000 AI job as actors and writers continue to strike (www.engadget.com)

Netflix lists $900,000 AI job as actors and writers continue to strike::Will this pair of Hollywood strikes ever end? It looks like the big corporations are digging in for a long battle, illustrated by Netflix’s recent job posting for a machine learning platform product manager.

AI written scripts will just repackage old ideas. Nothing new or innovative.

They only mentioned opioids, so there are a ton of other options which can add special effects to your daily life ;)

Did you read the whole article? It’s about behavioral advertising based on metrics that are not explicitly stated to the user. If the users opt in to this kind of advertising then it’s ok, but Facebook/meta has to get their agreement.

awderon ,

Just because most companies do it, doesn’t mean it’s ok.

It’s not about targeted ads based on information provided by the user of the service. If you have read the article you would know that they are banning behavioral advertising.

Tips shouldn’t be the main source of income. It should be a bonus for good work. Tipping culture in the us is getting crazy compared to Europe. The base salary should be enough to be able to live on.

awderon ,

I would say if you feel sick call in.

Personally I called in even with a headache or when I wasn’t in the right headspace to work properly. Take care of yourself first.

Depending on how your company handles things of course.

awderon ,

Mass exodus maybe in terms of power users. The average Reddit user used the official client before the api restrictions. My guess is that many people who posted good stuff ditched Reddit.

awderon ,

No, they won’t loose all content. I think the quality will just get worse and worse depending on what you view as quality. For the average social media user it probably will be good enough, or it will develop into reposts from other mainstream platforms.

Here is the source blog post from oracle: oracle.com/…/keep-linux-open-and-free-2023-07-10/

RedHat really fucked up with this move. I know RedHat employees and everyone from RedHat I met so far was proud they work there and how much open source meant to the company. I guess there will be more and more redhatters looking for new opportunities in the coming months.

awderon ,

Never meant to defend oracle. I dislike them even more than IBM.

How to deal with docker containers?

I have inherited some cloud hosted vms, with several services hosted in docker containers on these. Think we server and then DB, both hosted in separate containers. Several (overpriced) vms are involved. Would really like some pointers as to how I can get into these / edit them. Would really like to consolidate. I use proxmox at...

awderon ,

You can run containers as systemd services with the help of podman: putorius.net/how-to-start-podman-containers-on-bo…

Where the containers built by someone in your company or provided by the software vendor?

awderon ,

Docker inspect $container should return you most of the info for the container. You can also get a shell inside the container via docker exec -it $container sh. If you have a dockerfile for the container you can see how the container has been set up.

Additionally the shell history can also yield useful information on what has been done. Docker saves the logs of running containers in /var/lib/docker/containers

awderon ,

Don’t forget about the time wasted on social media or other useless stuff on the internet.

awderon ,

LFCS should be on par with RHCSA. CKA is also a good certificate which should get you a good return.

From my point the RHCSA is still a valid exam despite RedHats recent moves. HR Drones and Managers won’t care what RedHat is doing as long as they are supporting their products.

Disclaimer: I have no law degree and everything in this post is speculative.

After reading up on GDPR (en.wikipedia.org/…/General_Data_Protection_Regula…) it deals with the transfer of personal data to entities outside the EU or EEA for processing. The definition of personal data would be the main point to see if/how GDPR is applicable to lemmy instances. (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_data)

Your IP address and EMail address could be classified as personal data from my point of view. But this won’t be shared or processed outside of the instance as far as I can tell. If your username and associated posts are classified as personal data I can’t say, but there seems no connection of these to your IP or Mail outside the instance. According to this TechDispatch (edps.europa.eu/…/2022-07-26-techdispatch-12022-fe…) the instances still must adhere to GPDR, but as there is not much or no processing of personal data taking place this should pose no issue.

All of this is based on a bit of research, so please enlighten me if I made any mistakes.

awderon ,

But this won’t be shared or processed outside of the instance as far as I can tell.

At least use the whole sentence when quoting to avoid confusion.

Looking through the activityStreams definition it seems only Usernames are shared (www.w3.org/TR/activitystreams-core/#actors), which is already personal Data according to another comment (lemmy.world/comment/929906)

awderon ,

I agree, there is definitely work to be done regarding compliance.

There is only one cookie present when I inspect the Cookies with my browsers dev tools. Which seems to be the auth token for my account.

lemmy.world/legal

awderon ,

Receive users’ consent before you use any cookies except strictly necessary cookies.

Wouldn’t the auth cookie fall into the strictly necessary category?

awderon ,

I’m also no expert, just trying to learn more about the topic as it’s kind of interesting to see how other people are interpreting it.

awderon ,

Then message the server admins or you create a PR on the lemmy github page with the missing information. The missing legal footnotes is an issue you have to take up with them or the upstream lemmy repo on github.

OpenAI is currently being sued because they used everything they could fin to train their AI models. We will see how that works out.

edition.cnn.com/2023/06/28/tech/…/index.html

awderon ,

The reactions you are seeing are based off of Metas history. We will see how it works out.

awderon ,

Yeah there is more content on Reddit or FB/IG, but that doesn’t mean, that the content there is useful to users in the fediverse.

awderon ,

I didn’t mean to pretend that this will be any different. My hope is, that there will be some people who will see that there is an alternative to big tech and maybe drop Threads in favour of a real fediverse instance.

awderon ,

Adding to your point on responsibility: Call out people who insult others in their comments. There should be no place where insults are ok.

awderon ,

The title of the article is pure clickbait…

The article itself is mostly padding for a non issue.

Do you feel that there's a lack of discussion on Lemmy on stuff besides the current Reddit and Twitter controversies?

I’ve been on Beehaw and Lemmy.world for the past two weeks now and while people seem to be posting content that isn’t about Reddit or Twitter or how great federated platforms are, such content does not receive as many comments/discussion as topics about the Reddit API controversy, or the current Twitter controversy, etc....

awderon ,

We need to give it time. We are so used to things working instantly that it feels strange to have to wait. Enjoy the moment and do your part!

awderon OP ,

Yeah I played around with different tools yesterday. Topaz sharpen AI was pretty much useless for what I need. But ChaiNNer with different models is looking promising so far to save at least some of the pictures I have.

awderon OP ,

Thanks, here is the archived article which is also available in the EU: archive.is/nBxrS

awderon OP ,

So you are comparing a one page article in a magazine, based on a handful of interviews, to the scientific consensus that climate change is real? (climate.nasa.gov/scientific-consensus/)

Edit: sorry didn’t see your username. Reply was meant for @Blamemeta

awderon OP ,

You are right, all these other problems are also really bad. A lot of stuff is happening at the same time. It’s hard for me to read about all the shit that is going down and not be able to do anything impactful against these things.

awderon OP ,

I’m living in a flat, this limits what I can do on my own. But I’m looking into getting some solar panels to put up on the balcony, coupled with a storage battery this should bring down the kW/h I need from an external provider.

In the far future I would like to move out of the city and start producing more of my own food, but prices are just to high right now.

awderon OP ,

Humanity can certainly adept to climate change, but these changes will also cause a lot of people to relocate. I’m not sure if society, in the current political climate, can adapt quick enough to be able to deal with the influx of possible climate refugees.

awderon OP ,

I think every article that gets people to talk about the problems we are collectively facing is doing it‘s job.

For some people this might be the trigger to have a deeper look into the topic, because a more relatable person for them is pointing out a problem.

awderon OP ,

We need a system to hold those in power responsible for their promises and inactions.

I don’t trust corporations, the only thing important for them is the balance sheet, they will always take the easy and cheap way. There should be a world wide tax on all companies which decreases with the companies sustainability. Hit corporations where it hurts them: money.

awderon OP ,

Dude, if you don’t have anything useful to contribute just save the energy your comment is taking up.

If you are just here to attack people without making a point go back to reddit.

awderon OP ,

Your last comment just didn’t add anything to the discussion besides attacking. I can understand where you are coming from, but sometimes things happen and change the way you are looking at things.

Edit: After reading your edit it seems you are angry at the wrong people. At least you have chosen an appropriate username.

awderon OP ,

Another thing that came to mind is, that essential industries will also have to adapt. Medicine manufacturing for the world takes place mainly in India, and they are already in a crisis due to other problems.

Chip manufacturing will also become problematic in many regions, either due to weather changes or due to water shortages.

awderon OP ,

Unfortunately the attention of the masses is neatly divided between social media, news about impending economical doom and working for just enough money to survive. To me it seems that most people are already fighting for their survival in their own microcosm.
