That is the fault of the CISO. Execs get really interested, really quick, if the CISO can draw clear lines to the risks of direct financial loss via fraud or compliance failures that would result in fines or loss of customers.

The worst presentations I have seen are usually where the CISO tries to lean on FUD or cries wolf about hot-topic security threats that don't apply to the company they work for.

That's why I started running at age 45. Unless I get injured and can't run any more, I am kinda hoping that my heart will just explode one day on the track, and that'll be it. (I have already surpassed my one mile running pace from my 20's and have no plans to slow down.)

The injury bit would really suck, as spending the rest of my days not able to walk would be really bad. Even more so as I am using running as a way to delay the process of arterial stenosis that has already started at my kidneys. (I suspect my life would get really suck, really quick, if I can't actively manage that. It's already put me in the ICU once, just about one year ago.)

I got a small glimpse into how my body is breaking down already and decided focus on the things I could actually do to slow that down.

Still, even with the risks, I am able at least point my physical health and well-being in a much better direction that should pay off (hopefully) in my last 40 years. (Quitting booze a few years ago probably ensured that I would still have a family around that gives a shit about me, so there is that as well.)

I can't predict the future and eventually my body will still give out regardless. Doing what I can now to ensure a smooth path out is just about the only thing I can do.

That is, quite literally, from The Onion.

The mustard pattern is the same in the source image I found and in a million other shirts that you can buy online. The original design may be AI generated, but anyone can get the shirt with that same pattern. It's just the letters that look wonky.

IMHO, it's not enough to say the entire image is AI.

[–] remotelove@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Scroll down on the above site to solve the star conundrum. (There are multiple styles of the image to choose from.)

There may be multiple levels of AI involved. The original design may have been stolen from the site and had the original watermark removed with AI. When it was enhanced by the camera, the original corrections to the image caused the enhancement to become distorted. (As what happens when an image is ran through AI multiple times. Who knows how many times images on the interwebs now have been processed multiple times? It's the modern version of a picture getting "jpeg'd" into oblivion.)

Or, the only thing AI in the picture from OP is the design with the watermark removed and placed on the shirt itself. That could cause the distortion and also pass AI detection tests if done correctly.

My final guess is also my first. It's just simply broken photo enhancement. A picture like that would still have a dark foreground, even with a flash, due to the stage lighting in the background. (What I am saying is there is a high probability of an AI corrected picture that originally had a long exposure time. That is absolutely a condition that needs photo correction.)

tl;dr: the photo was originally too dark and "juice" was slopped-in by default.

[–] remotelove@lemmy.ca 20 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (7 children)

Think I found a source and suspect that the corruption of "juice" was due to AI picture enhancement. It'll break some weird parts of photos at times.

Edit: I tried stage matching that show for a bit and my best guess was Coachella. I tried to stage match in a poor attempt to find an "actual" original, unaltered version of the picture that possibly didn't contain the girl or the shirt. I think I found a couple different angles of that stage, which I thought was cool, but nothing worth mentioning further.

I suppose I feel like every other human that is just trying to survive on this world. Country of origin doesn't really mean shit to me any more unless I start getting generalized in conversations on Lemmy.

Things looked bleak for Joe, but they were even worse for mankind.

As Joe and Rita lay dormant, the years passed… and mankind became stupider at a frightening rate.

Some had high hopes that genetic engineering… would correct this trend in evolution.

But sadly, the greatest minds and resources… were focused on conquering hair loss and prolonging erections.

A person's instance can be an identity, of sorts. Not everyone going to make assumptions about you, but you are going to be exposed to a ton of unconscious bias, regardless.

If I see someone at a baseball game, it's safe to assume that the person actually likes baseball. It's so safe of a guess that many people wouldn't think twice about making that assumption.

I am simply calling out the conundrum for what it is. Stereotyping isn't the best thing in the world, but it is inevitable.

(I guess this is a 7mo update too? https://lemmy.ca/post/53008395)

Running and breathing control is a topic repeated ad nauseam on the interwebs, but is probably worth a rehash as new techniques are discovered or newer runners run into issues. (I still consider myself a new runner, as I still have not reached what I would consider to be an "acceptable" or consistent pace for anything over a casual 5k.)

My biggest limiter with my running is breathing. While nasal issues are absolutely in-play for me (severely deviated septum; surgery this week), I have been able to inch my way up to between 4-6 miles with a regular running schedule, strict recovery schedule and of course, pushing myself consistently and safely. My "running out of air" is always the hard wall I hit, head first.

The muscle burn has always been easy for me to push through, but if I start to hold my running/heartrate even a hair over 140bpm I will crash fairly quick (10-15mins), "run out of air" and have to stop before my current target time of 45 mins.

I suspect my blood pressure meds may be in play as well, capping my heart rate to a degree and limiting O2 uptake. I am going to talk with my Dr. about that as I may be to a point soon that I don't need them. I have already gone through two medication "downgrades" and have stopped one completely under supervision, of course.

Most of my running is treadmill, mostly because I love the consistency at a chill 10min/mi pace. Once a week, I will hit the track and practice at my target marathon pace of 8:30min/mi, but that is essentially just glorified sprints, as I can only handle .25 miles at a time as my heartrate peaks fairy quick, for obvious reasons. (Run faster, heart more beat faster.)

Casual track running will push my breathing harder, but does not seem to peak my heart rate as fast, which is super weird. When spring started and I hit the track again this year, I was gasping for air at an 11min pace and my heartrate wasn't a beat over 135. Talk about a demotivating experience. I am recovering my track pace again slowly and it's taking more time than I anticipated. (I can still run like a champ on the treadmill though, so it's a good morale boost.)

Do you specifically train for breathing in your exercise of choice? Do you go so far as to allocate an entire training day to just breathing or work it into your routine normally?

I know most of the basics like belly breathing, in one/out two and all the variations, coordinated breathing with pace, etc. I am still settling into, and experimenting with, different techniques as my pace and distance increases. However, feel free to rehash anything as getting different perspectives and starting discussion is the ultimate goal of this post.

Bug Report

Describe the issue:

  1. The text selector is sticky again during comment or edit
  2. Some comment replies do not unroll/expand in profile history.
  3. Not all comments load.
  4. My new comments don't always load until after app reload in profile history.
  5. Votes aren't updated until after app restart. (In profile history)
  6. Strange loading behavior/broken search for piefed instances.
  7. Text selector is un-broken editing this post sometimes.
  8. (Maybe not a bug) I can't sort by new in Connect community.

There are plenty more, and they all are mostly tiny things. A button might not work, comment replies won't unroll, etc. "Major" functions work, but everything around the edges needs polish.

The text selector one is absolute torture.

Bug Report

Describe the issue: Lemmy doom scrolling gets super laggy over 400mb memory usage. App ram usage is estimated as I can only see temporary app cache through Android dev settings when the app gets kicked into the background. Memory usage will mostly self-clear, but it takes a bit.

My background: Long time IT security engineer here that can code when I need. For dev experience, I have worked with various languages over the years like assembly, C/C++, js, typescript, PERL, python, etc. When needed, I can hack out a specialized tool but I am absolutely not a professional developer.

My ask: I just want a simple web framework that I don't need to think about too much. There are a few ideas I have regarding security analyst workflow in a SIEM-type of environment and need a way to code simple tools as basic snap-ins to a central analysis console.

The ELK stack serves a inspiration (specifically Kibana). However, there is so much more I want to build into an security specific analysis console and building it one snap-in at a time seems manageable over time.

What is the current flavor of the day regarding Web app dev frameworks that might function how I want? What frameworks would be compatible with a broad audience over a long period of time? (I never liked open source applications that use super niche libraries or frameworks that become obsolete and stale after a few months.)

I hope I was able to describe clearly enough what I am looking for. I would google around for ideas, but I simply don't know the correct questions to ask about this kind of thing until I get more up-to-speed.

 

I turned off "Preload Images" and my feed hasn't hung since. There is still a tiny bit of wait time while the next group of posts gets cached in the feed (maybe < 1 second) and this is usually when post pre-loading would fail and hang the feed completely.

If for whatever reason, if an image can't be preloaded it'll hang the feed? Maybe if a post gets deleted on one instance and, because fediverse, it may still be listed by my home instance? A failed cross-instance image load does sound like an interesting theory for root cause.

  1. Text selection can become "sticky". (Unknown cause) Moving cursor around on a comment in progress results in the text selection bar that cannot be turned off. Connect restart is required.

  2. Post cache is not always refreshed after edit. Requires Connect restart to see changes made to a post. (Post text is where the caching issue is, not generally comments.)

 

Single pull-down refresh breaks post alignment.

~~Multiple pull-down actions may cause the offset of the post to slowly creep up and I under the post menu and almost off the top of the screen. OR, when the post is opened, the post will load with proper alignment and then shift itself up.

This seems to happen within the first few actions on opening Connect and it may self-resolve if the post is opened again, but not always.~~
