Interesting, it seems as though #google 's #bard might be #trained on #gmail #email #data https://skiff.com/blog/was-bard-trained-.. The issue is that it might #leak #email #secrets .
Pretty interesting #video from #katiehopkins on the 15-minute cities: https://youtube.com/watch?v=JFEuD1dTCYw Turns out that #oxford #council failed to release important #data that detroys their case, unless, the point is not to reduce #traffic . It is very simple, they just want less people driving and they don't care what negative outcomes this means for you.
Back in 2015, prior to #gdpr , #twitter was looking to #sellout their #user 's #data to make #money , by selling very accurate #data to #telco https://twitter.com/stevekrenzel/status/.. Luckily some of the #engineers had a #backbone , but it was a close call.
Looks like people are on a massive anti- #elonmusk movement at the moment, this time looking into #starlink and their #capped #data , which is annoyingly #standard across the #isp industry: https://www.pcmag.com/news/starlink-sets.. It's very likely over the top.
Normally #crashing is not a good thing, but in this case we see #nasa purposefully #crashing into an #asteroid to test their ability to change it's #trajectory https://hackaday.com/2022/09/26/watch-na.. This will provide #valuable #data in figuring out how to prevent #collisions with the #earth in the #future . Quite a cool moment!
#whois #data from the #terminal is basically #unparsable https://www.netmeister.org/blog/whois.ht.. I also ran into this #issue many years ago. #jswhois looks like a good start, but obviously this is a tough problem to solve: https://github.com/jschauma/jswhois
Weird, we still have no #nation #statistics from the #uk #national #census , yet they are already talking about how they will change the #data https://blog.ons.gov.uk/2022/09/05/updat.. It *really* sounds like do not like the #results . It wouldn't have taken this long to #process if they did each #record one by one. Very strange.
The #uk #government is still #hiding the #census #data from the #public https://youtube.com/watch?v=OBM8kPxEgJo Madness. 25% of #england is now #foreign . These are people with no #loyalty to the #uk . This is not a recipe for success.
#us #regulators *finally* making a move on #tiktok https://www.cbc.ca/news/business/tiktok-.. Apparently they are asking #google and #apple to consider #banning them from their #stores due to #data #security #concerns raised about #bytedance .
Apparently #voyager 1 has started #transmitting #impossible #data with regards to #antenna #position - but still appears to be working somehow: https://hackaday.com/2022/05/21/voyager-.. Seems like this 45 year old #computer is chirping its last chirp at 14.5 #billion #miles away.
Waiting on that #uk #ons #census #data ... It's going to be spicy: https://www.lotuseaters.com/the-census-d.. As I pointed out in a recent #article , the newly adopted #immigrants are *highly* unlikely to #fight for the #uk https://coffeespace.org.uk/blogs/who-wil.. We must ask #whowillfight when it's likely some 15% of the #population are #foreign and have no #allegiance to #britain .

Still unclear: https://www.zerohedge.com/political/whit..I may be made to eat these words quite soon: https://coffeespace.org.uk/blogs/russian.. #fingerscrossed I don't... Let's all #hope that this #russia - #ukraine #situation calms down.
Apparently the #us 's #cdc #refuse to #release #data for #covid #hospitalisations for persons aged between 18 and 49 years old: https://www.zerohedge.com/covid-19/cdc-s.. They #claim the data may be #misinterpreted - or perhaps the data doesn't show what they want it to show and it needs to be changed... My guess is that it shows what is already known, #vaccines have #zeroeffect on #young people, who were never at any real #risk .
Woah, these #weird #data #types are the sort of things that keep me up at night! https://begriffs.com/posts/2018-11-15-c-.. Seems almost #impossible to write #portable #code !
Damn, tonnes of #ssd #storage loses #data on random #power #interruption - despite claims otherwise! https://twitter.com/xenadu02/status/1495.. I think this makes a really good case for the #pineflash #project (which is currently stagnated).
Oh man, #apple can't even make #guarantees about #data #integrity because they #hacked some #code around #fsync to #cheat on #performance #benchmarks https://twitter.com/marcan42/status/1494.. Even when calling #ffullsync you *still* cannot be sure the data is written to #disk ! It's a #corruption #nightmare - #forget running a #database , you can barely run *any* #program that relies on a #reliable #filesystem !
