Why mix up all the numbers, but not numbers 9, 5 and 6?

I mean the viewers of the video.

I know, but as a physical, mobile object as a camera is involved I imagine it’s much more vulnerable to man-in-the-middle attacks than today’s TLS certificates for sites. There are more moving parts / physical steps and the camera is probably not always online.

But in essence you are right, operating the camera the same way as a server should be possible of course. We need some basic trusted authorities that are as trusted as we have for our current TLS certificates.

What it will prove, is whether the video is actually of a specific camera certificate. Not who owns the camera, if it has been swapped or if the video footage is real.

But if you don’t actually check the physical camera and prove that key for yourself, then it can easily be faked by generating a key that is not coming from the camera and is used for the “proof” video and the fake video.

But how would one simple member of the audience easily determine if this whole chain of events is valid, when they don’t even get how it works or what to look out for?

You’d have to have a public key of trusted sources that people automatically check with their browser, but all the steps in between need to be trusted too. I can imagine it is too much of a hassle for most.

But then again, that has always been the case for most.

But you get rusty in moist environments; when you urinate you slowly rot away your urethra.

It’s tough, respect for holding on as you do.

Life’s not fair, not everyone has the mental stability that is required for a happy life. But we can hope to lessen the pain a bit.

Headspace is indeed an app, with a subscription (not sure what the free plan is, but it helped me so I didn’t care). You can also meditate yourself or with free YT videos of course, but this app worked better for me.

Take care, hope you find some relief.

ERASED is about a guy reliving his life as a young school kid, with awkward moments around romantic feelings. While I do think it kind of fits the story, I think it does not go well with the requirements.

With this classy response of his it’s almost better for his perceived character than when he didn’t say it.

After 25 years of suicidal thoughts I’ve finally taken antidepressants, Zoloft was what worked for me.

In a couple of months the black thoughts became more rare and now in a year or so they are almost gone. I don’t feel the active need to kill myself any longer. Which feels… a bit uncanny almost. Not all in life is good, but this specific lack of despair is nice; still really bizarre to not have this endless dread any longer. I try to enjoy that while it lasts.

I did a lot of meditation as well with Headspace, can recommend that too.

Hope you find your way.

But I’m allergic to mittens.

No action whatsoever is being done purely for someone else’s sake.

It depends, I believe actual tape keeps data usable way longer than CDs.

Who?

Also not a fan to say the least.

It’s cutting my programming work in half right now with quality .NET code. As long as I stay in the lead and have good examples + context in my codebase, it saves me a lot of time.

This was not the case for co-pilot though, but Cursor AI combined with Claude 3.7 is quite advanced.

If people are not seeing any benefit, I think they have the wrong use cases, workflow or tools. Which can be fair limitations depending on your workplace of course.

You could get in a nasty rabbit hole if you vibe-code too much though. Stay the architect and check generated code / files after creation.

No need to attack me like that when I’m just sharing my viewpoint.

I’m not that outspoken about whether it is fair or not to train on publicly visible data. As that is like having a set of brains look at the same data, but on steroids.

I do feel, however, that large companies making money off that inspiration input seems skewed. But that comes down to the question, can you look at public work and then ask for money for the work you create yourself afterwards. As you surely build on inspiration.

Well, in many other systems you have an overarching ruling layer that sets laws and is able to enforce them from a top level.

That is precisely the reason why those systems can be relatively stable. As you just have a very large group of people following the same set of rules.

In a sense everything every artist makes is inspired by other people’s art and general life experiences. We humans only have some extra sensory channels and brain paths to map that inspiration through, so it “feels” more original.

I’d argue our creation of art is just a couple of levels more complex. But at its core its just external stimuli followed by some internalisation that enables us to create art. But we needed the aggregated input.

Which does not mean that we can’t disapprove of literal copies of other people’s work. But I think we should be very aware of the fact that it’s more or less a complexity scale.

I like the idea of anarchism, but I see it as more of an ideal world view than an actual stable reality.

To support this, every group member of every group must almost unanimously support the concept. When resources or safety in an area become scarce, it’s easy for some groups to evolve back into another power structure to take care of their own people.

It’s really difficult for me to imagine everybody on this planet getting along with this. But I’m certainly interested in other viewpoints.
