YouTube/The Confused Adipose: DOCTOR WHO S2'S MAD ORIGINAL ENDING?! [RESHOOTS EXPLAINED +PHOTO LEAK +SYNOPSIS?! MORE SUSAN!]
. In our settings, we find that: 1) Extreme forms of “feedback gaming” such as manipulation and deception are learned reliably; 2) Even if only 2% of users are vulnerable to manipulative strategies, LLMs learn to identify and target them while behaving appropriately with other users, making such behaviors harder to detect; 3) To mitigate this issue, it may seem promising to leverage continued safety training or LLM-as-judges during training to filter problematic outputs. Instead, we found that while such approaches help in some of our settings, they backfire in others, sometimes even leading to subtler manipulative behaviors. We hope our results can serve as a case study which highlights the risks of using gameable feedback sources – such as user feedback – as a target for RL
One thing I find interesting: Billie isn't credited as "the Doctor". Usually the credit for a new doctor goes "And introducing Actor as the doctor".
And I can't figure out why? She is as far as we can tell the next doctor (unless they throw a curveball and she actually is the Valeyard or something) so why not credit her as such?
Germany already has a programe to fund open source software: The Sovereign Tech Fund
Last year it was expanded to become a proper government agency.
Accessibility options and better dev tooling in Gnome? Funded by the German Government
Better security with SMBA network shares? Enabled by the STF.
FreeBSD, OpenSteetMap and Arch Linux? All of them received money from the German Government in the last couple of years.
For a lot of people it's not even "going back". They are either to young to have experienced the old web or did but bounced of it. There is a sizeable group of people out there, who went online for the first time not despite facebooks privacy invasive profile building but because of it.
Lemmys default web UI doesn't have a endlessly loading newsfeed. That's a intentional design decision to help users spend less time on the platform. Because spending to much time on social media is bad for your mental health. So having friction points is a good thing.
Except the competition doesn't do that. So what is your average social media addict to do when they hit a friction point? They won't close the browser. Instead they will go back to the commercial platforms.
Some people like junk food. But creating addictive social media yourself isn't a good option either
Apparently: https://fr.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/R%C3%A9tention_de_s%C3%BBret%C3%A9_en_France
In French criminal law, “rétention de sûreté” is a procedure for placing prisoners who have served their sentence, but who present a very high risk of reoffending because they generally suffer from a serious personality disorder, in a socio-medico-judicial security center. This measure is limited to convictions for the most serious crimes, in particular sex crimes, and must be expressly provided for in the sentencing decision

I couldn't find an English source, even the English wiki article on preventive detention doesn't list France.
20 years is the maximum sentence in France
They absolutely should. But how to account for outside spending?
In the case of Israel the broadcaster didn't buy ads, the government did.

Looks Like the current coalition of SPD and Greens can continue, though both parties are suffering loses. The facist AfD can't capitalise on their national success last week. They are gaining seats compared to last state election in Hamburg.

‘Sweating like a mafioso’: calls in Italy to bar Estonia’s ‘offensive’ Eurovision entry
(www.theguardian.com)
They are exploiting a legal loophole: technically the law doesn't specify that you have to provide a tracking free version for free. So they don't.
I don't think this would stand up to scrutiny in court, because the law does state that getting a tracking free version needs to be as easy as the alternative and registering is more complicated than clicking "continue with cookies". But so far this is untested conjecture.
