    1. En Argentina, el mecanismo nacional nos da cursos para monitorear los lugares de detención.

      ¿A qué mecanismo se refiere en Argentina? ¿La Procuración Penitenciaria de la Nación?

    1. A list of transit agencies who provide public feeds is available on the GoogleTransitDataFeed project site.

      It's redirecting to Mobility Data's GTFS validator.

    1. The fact that Zn plasma levels in the positive effect and absence of effect groups were equal upon completion of conservative treatment most likely indicates the prognostic significance of the initial Zn plasma level in relation to the effectiveness of conservative therapy, but not a decisive role in realizing the positive effect of treatment.

      Where do they show that levels were equal between groups upon treatment completion?

    1. create a database named my_wiki, a user named wikiuser, and assign permissions for the user on that database.

      Just noting that in the config script the default username seems to be root. Maybe use root instead of wikiuser in this example?

    1. Social media

      The difference between social networks and social media outlined here does not match the difference explained above, highlighted by the interviewees.

    1. pay a monthly subscription for the VPN.

      An Oracle instance may be used for that. It offers unlimited inbound and 10 TB / month outbound traffic for free.

    1. for each kilowatt hour of energy a data center consumes, it would need two liters of water for cooling,

      But this water is not polluted, is it? Couldn't it be used for something else as it leaves the plant? Closed circuits?

    2. one issue unique to generative AI is the rapid fluctuations in energy use that occur over different phases of the training process, Bashir explains.

      But how often do these trainings actually occur?

    3. a generative AI training cluster might consume seven or eight times more energy than a typical computing workload,”

      How does this compare to servers used for blockchain technologies?

    1. it will not sell products based on A.G.I. technology.)

      So Musk is using a paper published by Microsoft Research suggesting that GPT-4 may show sparks of AGI to complain that OpenAI licensed this to Microsoft.

    1. Google has become nearly unusable for me because of those AI-generated summaries, and I'd hate to see Wikipedia head in the same direction.

      I'm not 100% sure but I think the way how Google and Wikipedia would use it is different.

      The proposed use here in Wikipedia directly summarizes the content of the article where you are reading the summary.

      Whereas in the Google case it may be using knowledge embedded in the model itself, plus summarizing some choice among the search results.

    2. Wikipedia has in some ways become a byword for sober boringness, which is excellent. Let's not insult our readers' intelligence and join the stampede to roll out flashy AI summaries. Which is what these are, although here the word "machine-generated" is used instead

      The contributor says it's OK that Wikipedia has "become a byword for sober boringness".

      They also take the (in my opinion) correct decision of calling it "machine-generated" as a way to hide what they think should be called "AI-generated" (which is an ambiguous term that doesn't help with discussing the topic).

    1. A wiki, on the other hand, allows users to simply hit an edit button

      Open annotation on a public layer, such as with Hypothesis here, may be one intermediary alternative.

    1. limited function approximator expressiveness. In particular, neural networks are only universal approximators as their size goes to infinity.

      As I understand it, models are just an approximation. Unless they are infinitely large.

    1. the availability of cheap AI-approximations might bethought to only increase public knowledge,

      They don't seem to include this increase in public knowledge due to cheaper AI-approximations on their model.

    1. We extracted excerpts of the interviews that related to those 6 tags and compiled them into a spreadsheet, totaling 85 excerpts

      Is this spreadsheet publicly available somewhere?

    1. Through focusing on improving the mobile experience, the expectation is this includes improving administrator satisfaction and workflows.

      How is this supposed to happen?

    1. There are many reasons for avoiding those systems: Skill decay especially in abilities like “critical thinking” or “problem solving” comes to mind. The ecological impact of those systems is another aspect that can’t be overlooked if one cares about the world. The way those systems harness and accumulate all data and information they can get without respect or compensation for the creators

      Skill decay, environmental impact and lack of compensation to or consent from training data creators are some of the reasons not to use generative AI.

    1. prone to what the tech industry calls “hallucinations.”

      What about now, with search-the-web capabilities added to these chatbots, such as ChatGPT and DeepSeek?

    1. You should see the server immediately accept the follow request.

      So this Accept activity is not sent in the response of the Follow activity, but rather on a separate delivery to the follower?

    2. You should see your Mastodon account sending a follow request to the actor me on the console where the server is running:

      I'm not getting this. Instead, it's complaining that No actor key pairs dispatcher registered.

    3. run the following command to query the actor:

      As is, this causes an error to be logged by the logger: ERR fedify·webfinger·server No actor handle mapper is set; use the WebFinger username 'me' as the actor's internal identifier. I understand this is related to Fedify's default behavior of assuming the actor's identifier to be the same as the WebFinger username. See https://fedify.dev/manual/actor#actor-identifier-and-webfinger-username

    1. It doesn’t matter if the offending account is on your server or a different one, these measures are contained within your server, which is how servers with different policies can co-exist on the network:

      In Mastodon, offending accounts are reported to the server where the reporting account resides. It is this server that decides what to do with the offending account's content. Reports can be forwarded to the offending account's server, but this is optional.

    1. it is reasonable that the delivering server remove the subscriber from the followers list.

      Servers may remove an actor from another actor's followers list if the follower actor remains unreachable for a long period of time.

    2. In the case of receiving an Accept referencing this Follow as the object, the server SHOULD add the actor to the object actor's Followers Collection.

      Does this mean receiving and Accept from the followed user in a client-to-server interaction?

      Otherwise, if the server receiving the Accept refers to the follower's server, shouldn't the Following collection be updated instead?

    1. (with authorization of the submitting user)

      What does this mean? Is that the user posting the activity? But didn't them post it to their outbox first?

    1. If they understand that forcing you to enshittify the service will send all your users packing and leave them with nothing, they will very likely not force you to wreck your service.

      What about them forcing you to put the switching costs on users? That is, what about them forcing you to remove the fire exits?

    1. So far, we have created 2,200+ new articles on Wikipedia, which generate 8m views per year.

      The articles in this category are: - English Wikipedia articles only. Do they support writing in other languages too? - Translated articles (or that's what the category says).

    1. Para Randi, y para casi todos los otros magos profesionales, lo fascinante es que quienes los miren traten, infructuosamente, de darse cuenta de cómo están logrando

      ¿Es realmente eso lo que fascina a los magos? ¿Que el público intente averiguar, sin éxito, cómo hacen lo que hacen? ¿O más bien disfrutan ver el asombro de la gente?

    2. Si perdiéramos irreversiblemente el método de la ciencia, estaríamos condenados a que nuestro conocimiento se detuviera donde está, y a ser incapaces de entender el mundo.

      Parece demasiado cientificista. ¿Siempre hubo "ciencia"? ¿Cómo conocíamos el mundo antes, si no?

    3. ¿Qué buscaríamos como dato confiable? Si hay investigaciones científicas

      El sesgo cientificista de nuestro conocimiento. ¿Hay otras formas de conocer?

    1. it still wouldn’t be able to correctly match a citation to a specific claim made in a specific body of work.

      I'm not sure about this. What about what Google's NotebookLM is doing? Or experiences like STORM to create Wikipedia-like articles?

      Pero si subjetividad y objetividad se derivan de polaridad, y ésta se refiere exclusivamente a el "sentiment strength", nada se puede decir sobre la descriptividad de la información incluida o la neutralidad de la fuente.

    2. lasaplicacionesnonecesitancomputadoraspropias,porlocualesunagranventaja.

      Hasta ahora se habló de Streamlit como de una librería. Pero ahora parece hablar de Streamlit como un servicio.

      De cualquier modo, por qué es una ventaja? A cambio de qué ofrece Streamlit este servicio?

    3. EsteartículoexploralaherramientaStreamlit,

      El uso de esta herramienta no parece relevante para el tema el artículo. Tratándose de un artículo en el que se mide polaridad, subjetividad y objetividad como aspectos del "sentimiento", habría que destacar las librerías que se usaron para tal fin, en todo caso (que no queda claro si fue TextBlob o NLTK).

    1. Pero César –precisa el historiador riocuartense– había nacido en el pueblo de Calamocha, en España (en Aragón)

      No encuentro fuentes que confirmen esto. Por el contrario, solo encuentro que habría sido portugués.

    1. comunidades de proyectos de Wikimedia

      Se refiere a comunidades de "Proyectos Wikimedia" como se define en el glosario (Wikipedia en español, Wikidata, etc).

    2. Se creará un documento similar a un Memorando de Entendimiento o Acuerdo de Nivel de Servicio entre la Fundación Wikimedia y el Consejo Global

      Es como si la Fundación Wikimedia se limitara a ofrece servicios de gestión a la comunidad Wikimedia, representada por el Consejo Global.

    3. una distribución equitativa de los recursos, como la establecida por el Consejo Global en consulta con las distintas organizaciones interesadas.

      No entiendo si se refiere a la distribución que establezca el Consejo Global, o los recursos que establezca el Consejo Global.

    4. Equidad

      Equidad en el conocimiento según Wikipedia en inglés (Knowledge equity):

      Knowledge equity is a social science concept referring to social change concerning expanding what is valued as knowledge and how communities may have been excluded from this discourse

      No habría que definirlo en la carta del movimiento?

    1. As it stands, there are many small non-Western Wikipedias, and although they may not be as big or have as many citations as English Wikipedia, their perspective reflects the community that they serve.

      I don't want to be naive, but it may be good to remember here that local communities will still have the choice whether to introduce the Abstract Wikipedia content in their local language editions, or not. That is, nobody will force anyone to use Abstract Wikipedia content in some way or another.

      But I understand this thought may be naive.

    2. Proponents argue that this project will allow marginalized editors to make changes that will propagate throughout all Wikipedias, not just their language.

      So probably it will be the case that these marginalized editors will be able to share their view of the world in topics where these views are not challenged by other more powerful views. For example, topics relevant to this marginalized communities, and unknown to the other communities.

    1. The reloading (rebuilding) of the graph from the Wikidata dumps takes between 1 and 2 months, sometimes more.

      When does the graph need to be rebuilt from Wikidata dumps? When servers crash and content in RAM memory is lost?

    1. type owl:DatatypeProperty (linking to data literals). Most of these properties are used to encode different uses of over 4400 Wikidata properties, which simplifies data processing and filtering

      different uses of Wikidata properties

      Do they mean the same property used in different contexts, such as in statement o reference auxiliary nodes?

    2. two formats: a complete dump of all triples in Turtle, and a smaller dump of only the simplified triples for wdt: properties in N-Triples.

      Turtle and N-Triples are data formats for storing RDF data.

    1. Figure 7: Number of pages on Wikidata:

      What do the inflection points mean? * ~March 2013 * ~July 2017: Freebase migration? Freebase was closed in 2016... Or lexicographical data from early 2018? Points in x-axis represent January or July? * ~July 2019 * ~April 2020

    2. locations of movie narratives (above),

      Some points are actually multiple points at the same place that show when you click on them. For example, many movies are narratively located in Argentina, but many of them show as a point in the middle of the country.

      As a result, it may seem that not so many movies are narratively located in one place, but actually it is because the place has not been specified down to the locality or province.

      Ideally, these "many-points" points may be bigger the more points they represent.

    3. Twitter  [23])

      Nowhere in the cited paper does it say that Twitter uses Wikidata in any way. Instead it says that the researchers of the cited paper used Wikidata for their research purposes, about Twitter.

    4. >1.44 billion

      According to Wikipedia's article about Google's Knowledge Graph, by 2020 it had 500 billion facts (statements), that is roughly 350 times the number of statements (although without annotations/qualifiers, I assume), and 5 billion items, that is roughly 50 times the number of items.

      Of course the problems with the size of Wikidata is not only technical (e.g., SPARQL queries times) but also social: how can we maintain this amount of data?

    1. answered "roughly one-third" of the 100 billion monthly searches

      I wonder how Google's Knowledge Graph role may be changing in this era of generative AI's.

    1. this deletion within minutes did not at all rely on examining "evidence of Dr. Strickland’s professional endeavors" – rather, it was done based on the "Unambiguous copyright infringement" speedy deletion criterion,

      But this seems to fail to acknowledge that in the The Signpost's article linked to above it says that once it was rejected because of copyright infringement, but another it was because of insufficient sources.

    1. Users of our plugin said they still visited Wikipedia directly and reported that when they knew the information they were getting from ChatGPT was coming from Wikipedia, they tended to trust it more.

      Did they control for the fact that users of the plugin are probably commited users of Wikipedia already? That is, how representative of the general population of ChatGPT users is the sample used in this survey?

    1. python manage.py runserver

      By default this runs the lawlibrary site.

      To run another site (e.g., open_by_laws, change the os.environ.setdefault("DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE", "lawlibrary.settings") line in manage.py.

    1. Currently, auto always selects hocr.

      In OCRMyPDF v15.4.4, this doesn't seem the case. When using the --pdf-renderer hocr option explicitly: * I get a .hocr file in the temporary files folder; * I avoid segmentation errors when reading the file with Mozilla's PDF.js; * When text is selected using a PDF reader, I can see the OCRed text (instead of blank characters).

    2. Glyphless font

      Probably an invisible font for invisible text overlay. Is it possible to use a non-glyphless font, yet invisible (i.e., it would only show when highlighting the text)?

    1. PDFs have no concept of words and lines internally

      Therefore, is it up to the PDF reader to determine what is a "word", a "line", a blank space, etc?

    1. un estudio sobre "malos viajes" realizado en la Universidad Johns Hopkins han demostrado que el 84% de los participantes, cuando les entrevistaron 6 meses después de la experiencia, dijeron que se habían beneficiado del "mal viaje", aunque fuera una de las experiencias más difíciles de su vida.

      Jesse, R., & Griffiths, R. R. (2014). Psilocybin research at Johns Hopkins: A 2014 report. Seeking the sacred with psychoactive substances: Chemical paths to spirituality and to god, 2, 29-43.

    1. somoscopyleft“avant la lettre”,simplemente porque de no existir la práctica generalizada de la copiano autorizada y el compartir entre pares, la mayoría de nosotros no ac-cederíamos a los bienes culturales: no podríamos pagar la licencia delsoftware que usamos ni los libros que leemos ni la música que escucha-mos ni las películas que vemos.

      Pero esto ha empezado a cambiar con la introducción de plataformas como Netflix, Spotify, Steam, etc

    1. For political leanings, the Facebook Audience API[supp 2] provides five levels: Very Conservative, Conservative, Moderate, Liberal, Very Liberal.

      How does Facebook estimate this leaning? What does Facebook say about it? Is it based on a US perspective?

    1. It should, at the very least, tag the tile as "done", and not expose it as a playable tile again.

      that would be if decision was "yes" or "no", I guess.

      Does the game provider know who is playing?

    1. INVALID_EXPRESSION_ERR If the expression is not legal according to the rules of the XPathEvaluator, an XPathException of type INVALID_EXPRESSION_ERR is raised.

      How could this error occur? Shouldn't the XPathExpression, whose evaluate method we are running, have been created via the XPathEvaluator's createExpression method? Shouldn't the error have been raised there instead?

      Is this related to the bug described here?

    1. Use the node.exe --preserve-symlinks switch in your launch configuration runtimeArgs attribute.

      Note that this won't work if the debugger is launched via npm: // .vscode/launch.json { "request": "launch", "runtimeExecutable": "npm" }

      This is because the --preserve-synlinks argument would be passed to npm instead of to node.

      In such cases, the env attribute may be used, setting NODE_PRESERVE_SYMLINKS to 1, but note that this won't work if node is not the first command in the npm script being run (e.g., do something && node).

    1. instantiate a new instance of the plugin in the plugins property and make sure that we set hotOnly to true in devServer.

      Since webpack-dev-server v4, HMR is enabled by default. It automatically applies webpack.HotModuleReplacementPlugin which is required to enable HMR.

    2. The following line lets webpack know we’re working in development mode — This saves us from having to add a mode flag when we run the development server.

      But won't this set the development mode even when I'm building for production?

    1. losusuarios no realizan directamente una donación al proyecto y lo hacen a la entidadresponsable de su desarrollo, que puede aplicar esa aportación para Wikinoticias ocualquier otro de sus proyectos, sin que el usuario tenga control sobre ello.

      lo de que el usuario no tiene control es cuestionable, ya que puede participar de discusiones en torno a qué proyectos financiar, presentar proyectos, votar miembros del concejo, etc

    2. sin embargo, al permitir lapropia filosofía de la plataforma el anonimato en los usuarios, no siempre se encuentrainformación relevante en estos perfiles

      Creo que es relevante destacar aca que se pueden ver todas las ediciones que un usuario hizo en el sitio.

    3. la libertad de los usuarios para ejecutar, co-piar, distribuir, estudiar y mejorar el software informático (Stallman, 2004).

      No es esto el software libre en vez del codigo abierto?

    Annotators

    1. Example JSONP:

      Is there an additional options property defining game types?

      "options":[{"name":"Entry type","key":"type","values":{"dog":"Dog","bridge":"Bridge","tree":"Tree","hieroglyph":"Hieroglyph","musical instrument":"Musical instrument","mountain":"Mountain"}}]

    1. stories may also be subject to review from time to time in case changes about the topic come to be surfaced.

      But because may stories may be made from a single article, and users can change the text they "imported" from Wikipedia, it would be cumbersome for editors changing some text in the article to make sure whether they have to change it in a story.

      Couldn't the text become linked to the Wikipedia article somehow?

    1. export them directly from your store setup file such as app/store.ts and import them directly into other files.

      Where would I import them into? I guess I may need to import them into my slice files. But these export reducers which are imported into the store file, creating a dependency loop. Right?

      Edit: See below; they say it's a safe circular import.

    1. If the selector returns a different value than last time, useSelector will make sure our component re-renders with the new value.

      How is this difference calculated? If the value is an array, or an object, given that state is updated immutably, won't it always be different?

    2. in a real Redux app, we're not allowed to import the store into other files, especially in our React components, because it makes that code harder to test and reuse.

      I don't understand this, because we could still call react-redux's useDispatch to get the store's dispatcher, couldn't we?

    1. Concurrent React and Suspense are coming and raise a whole bunch of questions. Will current state management solutions work the same way as before?

      This has probably been solved in React-Redux v8

    1. you have to write whatever state handling logic you need on top of that, in order to define the value that gets passed into a context provider. Typically that's just done through React component state,

      See here

    1. "React-Redux only re-renders the components that actually need to render, so that makes it better than context".

      I guess this could be achieved using context as well as explained above.

    2. When a context provider has a new value, every nested component that consumes that context will be forced to re-render.

      In the example above, when <ParentComponent /> is rendered, wouldn't <ChildComponent /> be rendered as well, independently of whether contextValue has changed or not, given that it is a child of the <ParentComponent />?

      Edit: Yes. See below.

    3. React requires that any hook state updates must pass in / return a new reference as the new state value,

      What does "require" mean here? Does this mean that if a hook state update passes in / returns the same reference as before it won't queue a re-render?

      Edit: see below.

    4. Class components don't have to worry about accidentally creating new callback function references as much, because they can have instance methods that are always the same reference.

      In function components, one can define functions outside the function component. However, I guess they wouldn't have access to the component's props and state.

    5. rendering <MemoizedChild><OtherComponent /></MemoizedChild> will also force the child to always render, because props.children is always a new reference.

      Is this also true if <OtherComponent /> is memoized as well?

    6. if we know ahead of time that a component's props and state haven't changed, we should also know that the render output would be the same,

      Why doesn't React automatically skip rendering in these cases, given that it does know the previous and new props and state of a component?

      Edit: Well, this is what PureComponent does, below.

    7. Finally, as far as I know, state updates in useEffect callbacks are queued up, and flushed at the end of the "Passive Effects" phase once all the useEffect callbacks have completed.

      Does this mean that all of state updates occurring on this phase are also batched into a single render?

    1. wrap it in a call to React.memo

      I was wondering whether this should be done in the module defining and exporting the component, or in the code consuming it.

      Given that React.memo could be thought of as a replacement of PureComponent for function components, I think it would be appropriate to have the module export the wrapped version of the component.

    2. If your React component’s render() function renders the same result given the same props and state, you can use React.PureComponent for a performance boost in some cases.

      Aren't React components meant to be deterministic? Should this always be the case?

    1. Even if an ancestor uses React.memo or shouldComponentUpdate, a rerender will still happen starting at the component itself using useContext.

      This makes sense here because if the context is set by an ancestor component based on its state, any child component consuming the context will update, not because of the context update, but because of the state update of the ancestor (which caused the context to be updated).

      See here for a more detailed explanation.

    1. function components render the interface whenever the props are changed.

      Do they? According to this, don't they re-render whenever their parent component is re-rendered (for instance, when their state is changed)?

    1. Pruning also allows employees to eliminate redundancy

      What would be a good strategy to suggest people to remove from one's followers to reduce compactness = redundancy?

    2. We can determine this level of diversity mathematically by using the com-pactnessratio, which measures the degree to which people in the network are connected to each other.

      UNICET's definition of compactness seems to be available here: http://www.analytictech.com/ucinet/help/2cqc8q.htm

      On the other hand, there is a definition of Gephi's "density" here: the number of links divided by the maximum number of links possible.

      Do these two measures match?

    1. These changes should show up on GBIF

      What would happen with the DOIs that were cited before? I assume these DOIs would refer to a set of observations as they existed at a certain time.

    1. hopefully we aren’t just replacing one set of mis-identifications with another.

      And captive observation misidentification shouldn't be such a big concern.

    1. we are continuing to work on new approaches to improve suggestions by combining visual similarity and geographic nearness.

      So this is not something they do yet

    1. viewing the history of a single section

      I guess this would be something that the main space would benefit from as well (i.e., not only talk pages).
