It’s unusual, but it was a little-known Russian movie from which I didn’t expect much, but in the end I liked it. It was Lord of the Wind (2023). Although I usually don’t like modern movies lately. It is about Fyodor Konyukhov is a Russian survivalist, voyager, aerial and marine explorer and his round-the-world balloon flight. Unfortunately, I don’t know if it is available in English.
In general, I noticed that a significant degradation of search engines began to occur after the appearance of chatGPT, perhaps this is somehow related. Before that, degradation was slower. Maybe in Google for example they were a little afraid that ChatGPT would learn from their search engines and replace them…
Hard to imagine that they so low skilled. If FSB really want to install a backdoor, it will be so low-level that more of a hard work will be required to detect it.
Something like a joke about this:
If you’re working on something genius great, no matter who’s watching you, they won’t understand anything, but if you’re doing ordinary things, it’s really not that important that someone is watching.
But of course, annoying comprehensive surveillance, especially from commercial companies, certainly should not be justified.
Yes, value can be expressed not only in monetary terms. If people find it very valuable, they should pay more attention to privacy. However, you can protect yourself from cryptolockers by remote backups as one of the ways.
Then all available and legitimate methods of ensuring confidentiality are adequate and justified. But sometimes at work you may need to use programs that you don’t really like etc. And without work, you will have nothing to eat. Maybe a little exaggerated.
Speaking specifically about me, I try to use free and open source software to the maximum extent possible. I only run non-free games sometimes. And sometimes some propriatary software for/at work.
If you are going to protect something, then you should not spend more on protection than the protected property is worth… It’s always about balance. :)
There is no need to ask GPT for a ready-to-use code, it does not work well for it. But it explains someone else’s complex code much better. Students need to ask it for short hints in places where it is not clear specifically or very small parts of the code, then it brings good benefits.
You can turn off your phone at least sometimes. :) But this of course does not solve the problem.
It constantly gives me 17.5 bits on several browsers firefox, nyxt, gnu icecat, librewolf…
