/tech/ - Technology

I recently came with a work of analyzing a website on my job. I saw they were using Google Analytics, but had a "cookie privacy settings" in wich i could "disable" that feature of sending "anonymous" data to Google and saving their cookie on my browser. Well, I tested that and checked if that really works.
Guess what? It really did not saved any cookies, but still were sending my goddamn yiffy data to Google, every page i accessed.

> Documents Reveal Advanced AI Tools Google Is Selling to Israel
> Google employees, who have been kept in the dark about the “Nimbus” AI project, have concerns about Israeli human rights abuses.

""" Training materials reviewed by The Intercept confirm that Google is offering advanced artificial intelligence and machine-learning capabilities to the Israeli government through its controversial “Project Nimbus” contract. The Israeli Finance Ministry announced the contract in April 2021 for a $1.2 billion cloud computing system jointly built by Google and Amazon. “The project is intended to provide the government, the defense establishment and others with an all-encompassing cloud solution,” the ministry said in its announcement.

Google engineers have spent the time since worrying whether their efforts would inadvertently bolster the ongoing Israeli military occupation of Palestine. In 2021, both Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International formally accused Israel of committing crimes against humanity by maintaining an apartheid system against Palestinians. While the Israeli military and security services already rely on a sophisticated system of computerized surveillance, the sophistication of Google’s data analysis offerings could worsen the increasingly data-driven military occupation.

According to a trove of training documents and videos obtained by The Intercept through a publicly accessible educational portal intended for Nimbus users, Google is providing the Israeli government with the full suite of machine-learning and AI tools available through Google Cloud Platform. While they provide no specifics as to how Nimbus will be used, the documents indicate that the new cloud would give Israel capabilities for facial detection, automated image categorization, object tracking, and even sentiment analysis that claims to assess the emotional content of pictures, speech, and writing. The Nimbus materials referenced agency-specific trainings available to government personnel through the online learning service Coursera, citing the Ministry of Defense as an example.

very based

kek. i hate the eu antichrist, but they've been on a kind of based roll lately when it comes to /tech/. first itoddlers, and now faggle, when will they learn?

also inshallah this will happen to the incel management system and all unfree bios firmware sending your anime girls to the glowuyghurs in the anglosphere. can't wait for the ultimate btfoing

SATA already does the job and I'm not a speedfag so why?

>>16010
Well technically you can pick up transfers on SATA cables if you place an antenna next to the computer via the RF noise generated by the transfer and lack of RF shielding on modern computers.

there's about a bajillion ways to exfiltrate data over the air from a 'puter. set up a shortwave radio and have a listen. keyboards are noisy even if they're built-in (laptop)

>>15981
bro wtf. i just found out my old thinkpad i use every day only has room for an m.2, first time i ever heard of such a storage device, now im seeing leftypol post about m.2

Good i'm a laptop user and don't have any SATA cable lol

>>16043
oh yeah you're right. there's tons of weird soviet Z80 clones. then you have yugoslavia with their Galaksija

Hegel was right…

Lack of donut menus.

When you use a mouse, it is much easier to hit icons at the screen edges compared to somewhere else on the screen, and corners are the best. Corners are basically like icons with infinite landing space. A donut menu works like this: If your mouse is not at a screen edge, the menu becomes visible as you hold the right mouse button. If you don't move your mouse, you are in the hole of the donut and nothing happens. You can move your mouse in a direction to hit this or that function on the menu, and it's really the angle that does the selection, not how far you go. So this works fast like the stuff on the screen edges.

>>15960
So you're basically describing something like this?

>>15961
Haven't played that title (looks like Turok 2), so I can't answer for sure. What is important is that you don't rotate the items to select and also that their position doesn't get rejigged based on which weapons you have and have not, so everything quickly becomes muscle memory. If that's how it works, it's a proper example.

>>15962
Yup, that is indeed how it works.

>>15871
Wow, what a shitty move.
Are there no legal ways to prevent that ?

>>15871
Try as hard as you can to make them not know it was you personally who made the stuff.
Use a VPN or TOR for outside services hosting your shit, this includes your own servers.
Do not make any content on company machines that can be accessed easily or remotely. (But do work on your projects on company time lmao, just keep in mind to watch your outgoing connections.)
Do not associate yourself with the accounts you'll be hosting your stuff on, if they keep time logs it would suck if the company found out about them.

Generally be a sneaky pain in the ass.
As for trade secrets, I dunno lol.

Also, try to move out if you got the resources. If not, the next best thing would be moving to a different state.

The wonders of IP law.

this is totally not slavery btw

doesn’t webassembly already allow this

> in the browser
Which one? And why python?

>>15874
already exists in chromeOS

>>15875
Currently the sole defacto wasm compiler is emscripten, that is part of the llvm toolchain and priotizes C and C++ support. Cythons latest version only supports python2 and it wouldn't be unusual for the python3 interpreter to expect access to some os resources. They are probably working on a full integration of python into llvm (subsets already exist https://numba.pydata.org/).

In the future, everything is Chrome.
