souperk@reddthat.comto World News@beehaw.org•What We Know So Far About the Supposed 'Mother of All Data Breaches'9·16 days agoPetkauskas’s article describes the discovered breach as “a plethora of supermassive datasets, housing billions upon billions of login credentials” that have been sourced from “social media and corporate platforms to VPNs and developer portals.” This data is sourced from “30 exposed datasets” that researchers say contains “tens of millions to over 3.5 billion records each.”
To be clear, this is not a new data breach, or a breach at all, and the websites involved were not recently compromised to steal these credentials
Regardless of whether this involves freshly leaked credentials or not, it might be a good time to freshen up your logins. Hackers’ jobs are getting easier by the day.
souperk@reddthat.comto Unpopular Opinion@lemmy.world•No one and no group is above factual, respectful criticismEnglish2·16 days agoI feel you will appreciate reading a bit of Kant’s work, the critique of pure reason would a good start. In perpetual peace, he makes the argument that in order to achieve peace everyone should freely exercise their right to “public reason”, aka their right as an individual to critique others (the state, organisations, or individuals).
souperk@reddthat.comto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What do you think the solution to selling progressive politics to young men is ?4·18 days agoIMO it’s about saving men from the patriarchy. I was recently on an interview of Judith Butler and I really appreciated its take that the movement needs to show empathy and compassion.
souperk@reddthat.comto Technology@lemmy.world•Slrpnk instance is down till mid July; they might relaunch their server on piefed.English17·1 month agoWondering if a volunteer could go to the physical location necessary to restore service. If it’s in Athens Greece, I can make the trip.
Edit: The server is located in Azores, the flight would cost 415eur, I cannot afford that, maybe someone in Portugal could help?
souperk@reddthat.comto World News@quokk.au•Merz: Germany Will Build Strongest Conventional Army in Europe1·2 months agoMilitary spending is a self fullfiling prophesy. A country spends more because other countries are spending more. Recession kicks in and somehow the goverment has to justify its military spending when people are getting hungry, so it goes to war.
Europe was built on the promise of stopping war without military power, that’s a step in the wrong direction.
Hey, I was fired last July and I went through the same process, I actually asked a similar question on Lemmy and the feedback I received helped a tonne in landing more interviews.
Here are the steps I believe helped me:
- Make sure your CV is machine parseable, search for open resume, upload your cv see what it detects. Ideally, generate your CV using that tool.
- Create your own portfolio website, here is mine for reference https://souperk.gr/ (I have a public repository, feel free to copy if CSS isn’t your strong suite)
- Check that toggle on LinkedIn to signify you are actively searching atm (don’t remember how, but you should see a ribbon on your avater if it’s active)
For me, landing more interviews was the hard part. Once I got a few interviews going, landing an offer was easy.
I have tried Zen and I like it, I will give ForeDragon a spin, thanks 🙏
I like Arc’s user experience with vertical tabs. They are bigger, easier to organize and they are cleaner. Also, the sidebar toggle is hard to work with, ideally I would prefer the ability to toggle with a shortcut or reveal on hover.
Aside Arc, Zen browser has a good vertical tab experience.
Overall, I still main firefox for my personal browser, though it’s UX is still lacking.
Maybe add some decent vertical tabs too?
So you are basically building a classifier that tries to assert if a user will like a video. While many are against any kind of “algorithm” within the fediverse, I believe that it’s a necessity. But, I think allowing users to tag content and then building classifiers that allow you to filter based on that would be a more aligned with the fediverse.
Anyway, cosine similarity has worked for a lot of things, so I think it’s a solid foundation to get you started. Another thing you can try is using an embedding model, specifically a model that receives a segment of a video and yields a matrix with the property that similar input will result in outputs relatively close to each other (cosine or euclidean distance).
Another thing to consider is building a platform that will permanently store data. If you can come up with a set of endpoints, I can implement something in python to get ypu started. I don’t have experience with video processing so I cannot help you with that, but the crud aspect is no biggie.
souperk@reddthat.comto Open Source@lemmy.ml•Trusting Open Source: Can We Really Verify the Code Behind the Updates?5·3 months agoAlso, fuzzing is becoming quite popular. It’s a technique that automatically detects vulnerabilities on a binary. Though, it is computationally intensive, so I would love to the emergence of a peer-to-peer project that allows anyone to contribute by testing open-source software.
souperk@reddthat.comto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Instead of paying for a therapist every week I'd be willing to pay like $100 a month for someone to harass me into going to social events.27·4 months agoThis need is probably something you can discuss with your therapist.
souperk@reddthat.comto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Email provider for home server alertsEnglish1·5 months agoI ended up setting up a postal server on my vps (see here). Their docs are pretty easy to follow through and it’s probably the cheapest option (assuming you already use the and have a domain).

souperk@reddthat.comto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Changes to Lemmy/PieFed to adjust to living under fascismEnglish27·5 months agoLemmy is a public forum, if you want to communicate privately exchange matrix handles and communicate there.
souperk@reddthat.comto Unpopular Opinion@lemmy.world•Community Locked / Going Dark in Protest [Meta] [Updated 2025-01-13]English51·6 months agoWhat happended to “Don’t feed the trolls”? I thought it’s shared expirience that giving attention to trolls like that only gives them motivation to keep on going. Ignoring them is the only way to stop them from spamming.
souperk@reddthat.comto Programmer Humor@lemmy.ml•The Christian and Traditional Family propaganda of Prolog examples3·6 months agoDataLog is used to verify smart contracts. I don’t know any specific examples of prolog used in the industry, though I am sure there are a few. Probably, there are expert systems implemented with prolog that are still used.
Logic programming in general has a few usages, the unification algorithm is used for pretty much every type system. Also, it is quite good for verification systems. For example, I know some symbolic execution systems implemented in OCaml.

IMO this is creating unrealistic expectations for the bundle size of linux distributions 🤣🤣
