Just a question, are these creators paid to sponsor these products? Because at least in eu, they would need to add a "#adv" in their post, which makes it easy for me to spot sponsored content here. I guess in the rest of the world it may not be necessary
It's mentioned in video, here's an excerpt from FAQ [0]:
> Do creators disclose that a post is paid?
> Yes, every time. Every creator post we place carries X's paid partnership label. That is an FTC requirement for any post where a brand has paid or given something of value, and it is X's own rule for sponsored content.
Although, there are other services, that sound shady.
Oh this is interesting. I've seen it was added in the last months on x but it's cool nonetheless. Otoh, i don't miss not using a lot of social networks except for a few niche subreddits
I'm taking an onboarding process for an Ai company helping other (much) bigger Ai companies and the amount of vibecoded platforms and documentation is staggering. Like, training process so broken that the platform just doesn't load sometimes, things that have never even been tried are published and you have to use them and they suck so much because it is apparent that no human ever touched that and probably wouldn't want to
It's a part time job hiring contractors, I'm doing this only because they pay would be nice but I know very well I can be fired anytime or when the project is done...
Anyway I'm a student so I'm not looking for something stable. BTW now it's getting better but if I were the client paying for those services I'd be pretty fucking furious for what's going on - guess they'll never know tho
>I’m also very sure that anyone that advocates for government healthcare should try actually using it in one of these countries
I actually do since I'm Italian lol
Don't get me wrong, what has happened to you feels at best a bad practice, at worst something that goes on the news or that has a legal proceeding afterwards. I've known people with good and bad experiences, I can't complain too much about it. Can I ask in which region? Italian Healthcare is somewhat region-dependant
Uhhh, some nerve damage, news worthy? Ho qualche dubbio al riguardo.
Fellow italian here, let's not act like our third rate ERs never leave people suffering for hours without caring that it may have lasting consequences. I understand it's partially due to understaffing, but this is the reality. My dad had this happen to him as well. Thanks
We also inverted the food pyramid recently since the whole thing reeked of big sugar/grain lobby, it can take a while for research to percolate above propoganda, and I'm not above suspecting the new pyramid of having its bias'
There's so much fad diet marketing and propaganda out there, but the Mediterranean diet is one of the few that's actually backed by a decent amount of real scientific research as being healthy for most people.
Big Bread vs Big Cow. Both are needed for pizza so maybe we can swap the pyramid for a rectangular "office tower" shape and call it a truce. Good opportunity for Big Pizza.
It's a bit of a poor example as well, because there was a long time when people were importing Australian baby formula into China because they didn't trust the food safety standards there.
I don’t understand the point you are trying to make. Is it that since the person didn’t find the page they were looking for, they must be a Chinese plant?
They probably didn't conflict at the time, see if you tell the resolver to use versions no newer than the publication date (like uv's `exclude-newer` option). I've gotten deps for older research code to install with that one simple trick.
Ok sorry but I forgot to read if there were answers.
So I still have to do things concretely and have moved to another country, for now I have mostly read papers (...). But well anyway
There's a class of ml algorithms that belong to continuous learning, what they do is integrate knowledge as they operate. In short, the difference between a traditional ml is that once it's trained the weights don't change, while here they do.
The thing is, there are a handful of techniques that you can used, based on your scenario, to degrade the performance of these models. In a white box attack you assume you have access to training data and training process. you can alter the training data, for example in the computer vision field you can add a small perturbation to images (not visible to human eye) so that the model might learn to recognize that pattern rather than the actual animal in picture for example. Or you might swap labels. But white attacks sound kinda obvious, come on...
Well mostly, some white box attacks are more subtle and can be used to put a backdoor in a model that only activates when it is seen again during operation, much more stealthy and dangerous because you might target a very narrow class or a single one without degrading its performance for others. Example, you put a shape on a "stop" sign photo, and that shape gets recognized as "go" by a self driving car which now doesn't recognize the stop sign, but recognizes stop signs without that shape glued to it
Can operate without having access to the model or the training process. The gist is, continual learning models might make a few errors when operating (as every ml model), and it's not a problem if they ingest them and update their model based on an incorrect prediction, in a regular scenario... But in rip, you craft a dataset of predictions you know are incorrect (you have a photo, you know it's cat, model predicts dog) and you send them to the model a lot of times. The model eventually will have degraded performance because continual learning models are updated based on the predictions they make, and making a lot of bad guesses degrades performance.
There are other attacks that are not white or black box but in between, assuming you have a copy of the model can allow you to craft an image which is made so that when sent to the model, what the model does when updating the weights is basically climbing the gradient
I'll leave a few links because I wrote this in a rush when busy
A big store chain in italy (mediaworld/mediamarkt) sells laptops without license as well, of course with a lower price than the equivalent with windows license
