huh, that’s definitely an interesting paper to write.

Ah thanks for clarifying I was like wait I’m schizo?

np, and just between the two of us, yeah you are :)

I’d say the right to privacy would be covered under the right to not be searched without a warrant.

it depends on the specifics i think, but from what i can understand the primary legal argument against it right now is actually “unreasonable search and seizure” and “illegal evidence collection” rather than, warrant specific things, though im sure that’s sort of adjacent.

The problem right now is that none of our laws explicitly protect things like forcing people to use face ID in order to unlock their phone, because it isn’t technically “extracting” information from someone unwillingly. Similar issues with collecting evidence from the trash, or using AI facial recognition. There just aren’t any clear laws, and the police are taking advantage of it while they can.

The facial recognition on every corner is an unreasonable search IMO and society has just accepted it? Morons with well I’ve got nothing to hide…

i think for facial recognition, i would argue it’s a violation of right to privacy, rather than unreasonable search and seizure, because they aren’t searching for anything, or seizing anything, necessarily. I think i would rather have stronger privacy laws after the fact anyway.

Also, facial recognition is mostly a problem with using cameras in public, rather than police using cameras in public, putting this under unreasonable search and seizure limits it to police activity explicitly, i would much rather not be facially recognized at all, when outside. Private entity, or not.

any data on this or anything? Or are we just going to say things.

The 2008 crisis was an example of mass fraud

I guess it mostly depends on how you define fraud.

If i buy something from china, and on the way to the US it falls off the boat and into the sea, destroying it forever, is that fraud?

You can’t point to historical data saying your investment strategy is safe, even tho you completely changed the model.

historical data has nothing to do with the safety of investment. That’s like looking at the fatalities in a war, and deriving the danger from being inside of trenches.

The safety is defined as a component of risk, and stated responsibilities. An extremely safe asset would be something like land, it never moves, doesn’t go anywhere, people will always want it for something. Though it’s not an investment.

A safe investment would be something like a long term diversified stock portfolio, or government bonds.

average lemming experience really.

yeah i can imagine, probably also depends on where you live, and go to school at. For me it was easily 90+ % men. I don’t know if there was any overt sexism in the education space (workspace i can imagine there is, but that’s just how it is unfortunately), but it’s definitely a little imposing walking into a room full of primarily men/women as the other gender and just trying to be normal lol.

I think a lot of the problem, at least historically, is that women just weren’t as educated on technology as men, both throughout childhood and education. That’s changed over time now, thankfully, but i wonder if it’s more influenced by women focusing on more highly educated fields, and men moving out of those fields, and into things like CS that are still educated, but not as much as something like, micro biology, for example.

Personally as a linux user myself, i’m just happy seeing people learn about the technology they use, and learning to utilize it more effectively, possibly even learning how to create it lol. It’s an indispensably useful skill to have. Especially with how “stupid proof” modern operating systems like IOS can be. I would like to see more women in the field, but unfortunately i’m not familiar enough with it to make any significant prognosis here. Other than “you should try to self educate in your free time where possible” it might make life more interesting, you never know.

idk what the actual stats are, mostly cuz i don’t really care, and it also depends on where you look, obviously. But i was mostly going off of anecotal experience, and uh, it’s definitely not looking great. But then again a lot of younger women are going to stem fields, more so than IT and admin stuff. Management as well, i might have to look into some actual statistics one of these days to see what’s actually going on lmao.

but it’s definitely one of the things of all time in the CS space right now. It’s still very male centric, for some reason.

uhm, it says “with hands”

NYC has an explicit ban on masks that conceal identities, as of a while ago now, unless that’s been repealed somehow.

It’s an idea, for sure.

unfortunately, yes, fortunately for me, and other people, i’m still correct in this regard.

There’s nothing inherently wrong with wanting to obscure your identity, if there was the internet wouldn’t allow anonymity. People would be required to wear their government issued ID on their shirts. Etc.

is it schizo? Objectively? No not really. As far as popular culture, am i schizo for not wanting to reveal my identity to anybody? Probably a little bit.

I would argue it may be a violation of unreasonable search, but definitely a violation of our right to privacy (that we should have).

i mean, yes you did, i would give you a pellet gun as well. It’s just that we wouldn’t talk about it outside of telepathy.

the irony here being, that americans have impossibly good teeth, compared to other european nations…

i think most people prefer not being told to be happier.

It’s like reverse psychology.

what about schizo people like me who wish to hide their identity so as to not be clobbered by AI facial recognition software?

ask googler. Or find your local furry, i’m sure they would know.

yeah, the answer is none, because im pretty sure 80-90% of the field is men still :(

(this is a stereotype meme, so it fits, don’t @ me)

they’re not even in the woods anymore? What?

noel isn’t actually an IT guy, he’s the random guy that broke into your building but is too chill to be kicked out.

Also he’s kinda funny.

the four types of men*
