  • That’s literally how a stutter works my man.

    The wrong words come out sometimes even if you know what you were about to say.

    This seems to be the case here as evidenced by the rest of the press conference being smooth as butter.

    But no one seems to care how well things went when you have single phrase fuck up early on. Answering questions effectively and intelligently later on means nothing when you can focus on something that brings in drama points for your average voter to suck on …




  • Another risk with Monitor, which may get better with time. Is that FOSS rust projects have a tendency to slow down or even stall due to the time cost of writing features, and the very small dev community available to pick up slack when original creators/maintainers drop off, burn out, or get too busy with life.

    To be clear: I have nothing against rust. It’s a fantastic language filling in a crucial gap that’s existed for decades. However, it’s I’ll suited for app development, that’s just not it’s strength.



  • It’s not as easy to defeat as just changing the pixel…

    CSAM detection often uses existing features for image matching such as PhotoDNA by Microsoft. Similarly both Facebook and Google also have image matching algorithms and software that is used for CSAM detection which.

    These are all hash based image matching tools used for broad feature sets such as reverse image search in bing, and are not defeated by simply changing a pixel. Or even redrawing parts of the whole image itself.

    You’re not just throwing an md5 or an sha at an images binary. It’s much more nuanced and complex than that, otherwise hash based image matching would be essentially useless for anything of consequence.
