on Pentagon Investigators Say Overreliance on [Palantir] Contributed to US Strike That Killed 123 Iranian Children in c/technology@lemmy.world · 1d ago
I think the Pentagon is looking for a fall guy for the attack and they know Palantir will take it. While the Obama administration still continued bombings and assassinations, the administration required approval to go through the White House rather than trust internal DoD procedures. This went away when Trump took office.
My guess is that the DoD didn’t have the procedures in place to figure this shit out but they now need someone to blame.

I’m not surprised. I know secret bases were located from people posting their runs.

on DraftKings Allegedly Used AI to Target Bonus Bets at Customers Expected to Lose the Most in c/technology@lemmy.world · 4d ago
No offense, but the article is speculation which doesn’t address issues like increasing availability of gambling and its increasing gameification.

on Thanks FedEx, This is Why we Keep Getting Phished in c/technology@lemmy.world · 4d ago
Yeah, there were two IT techs at one company who routinely asked for user passwords, in part because some of the software we used require setup in the user account. I’d say no, but I was on a few reply all emails where others provided their password to everyone on the email.
I forwarded those emails after the IT manager after the company email server got blacklisted by a client for our emails being used as an attack vector to phish.

Google used open source as cover to to illegally dump into different industries to expand its monopoly. It did the bare minimum to prepare for the antitrust litigation that never came.

They tried to solve the problem using AI, got AI slop, but didn’t understand why it wouldn’t help.

It has been an interesting experience telling people who only say hello that they’re being rude.

on A Finnish town is heating itself with 2,000 tonnes of crushed rock: its giant “sand battery” can cover almost a month of heating demand and has cut district heating emissions by 70% in c/technology@beehaw.org · 19 Aug 2026
The problem with freezing water is the material expansion.

That’s a really great application. I wonder if a thermal battery could be used for both heating and cooling.

on YouTube’s AI slop detector incorrectly targets Kurzgesagt as other creators fear same fate in c/technology@beehaw.org · 8 Aug 2026
Yeah, but when Brian McManus from Real Engineering made a video which somewhat defends Kurzgesagt in their issue with YouTube, it shows that the filter issue isn’t just a problem with Kurzgesagt.
It was good enough for George Jetson, it is good enough for them.
