US Consulting Firm’s $5-Billion Plan to Ethnically Cleanse 500,000 Gazans
GHF has been a disaster. It has become (and probably was always intended to be), a method of control of the subject population. It is not a humanitarian project. It is a fig leaf that conceals Israel’s role in devising and implementing this horror show…
They're going to be teaching this #tariff episode in public policy schools for generations, and it's not as an example of precise #planning and #implementation.
I need some advise: Is there a good portable and free (really free, not GPL!) #implementation of #bcrypt in #C around?
There's #OpenBSD source I could use, but integrating that would probably be quite a hassle...
Background: I want to start creating a second credential checker for #swad using files. And it probably makes sense to support a sane subset of #Apache's #htpasswd format here. Looking at the docs:
https://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/misc/password_encryptions.html
... the "sane subset" seems to be just bcrypt. *MAYBE* also this apache-specific flavor of "iterated" MD5, although that sounds a bit fishy ...
#News 
from #AI #research 
: “How #ChatGPT 
can benefit from human #brains 
- or how we teach #machines 
to #think 
”
My colleague #Axel #Stöcker and I have already been able to conduct some very exciting interviews on this very topic in our #Zoomposium series “#Artificial #intelligence and its consequences” and “#Cognitive #neuroscience and #epistemology”.
One “highlight”, for example, was the very exciting interview “Zoomposium with Dr. #Patrick #Krauss: ‘Bauanleitung Künstliches Bewusstsein’“, in which we asked him about the possibilities of ‘how the #theories of #consciousness - especially those of #Antonio #Damasio - could be used to develop artificial systems based on ’#felt” #information. This foundation could be used to #machine #learning and #deep #learning so that #AI #systems learn to respond to #emotions and #changes in their #environment in a similar way to #biological #organisms.
In this context #Patrick #Krauss was also currently at the „#Embodied and #Situated #Language #Processing (#ESLP2024) conference from 03 to 05 October 2024, which was organized by members of the „#Brain #Language #Lab“ of the #FreienUniversitätBerlin. There he had the opportunity to present the latest research results together with his team from #FAU.
One of #Patrick #Krauss talks was about a study „Analyzing Narrative Processing in Large Language Models”, which he had conducted in collaboration with his colleague #Achim #Schilling. The results of this study are partly based on an article “Leaky-Integrate-and-Fire Neuron-Like Long-Short-Term-Memory Units as Model System in Computational Biology”, for which he and his team were awarded the #BestPaperAward at the „International Jount Conference on Neural Networks #IJCNN2023”, the world's largest interdisciplinary conference on #artificial and #biological #neural #networks.
These current results from AI research of #Patrick #Krauss are therefore a real „jointventure” between #AI and #neuroscience, as the data and methods can contribute directly to the improvement of #large #language #models (#LLM), such as #ChatGPT, and in return the #cognitive #neurosciences can also learn something about the use and formation of #language in the #brain from this #implementation and #simulation of #cognitive #processes on #machines.

According to #GPT3, re my last name:
"The last name #Pérez is a common surname in many Spanish-speaking countries, particularly in #Spain, #Mexico, and other Latin American countries. It is derived from the Latin name "#Petrus," which means "rock" or "stone." The name was originally given to people who were believed to be #strong and #dependable, like a #rock.
Pérez is the most #common surname in Spain, and it is also one of the most common surnames in Latin America. In the United States, the surname Pérez is more common among people of Hispanic or Latino descent. It is also found among people of Portuguese and #Sephardic #Jewish heritage.
The origin of the surname Pérez is difficult to trace, as it has been in use for many centuries and has spread to many different countries. However, it is generally associated with the cultures of Spain and Latin America."

Bernadette Fischler Hooper (#WWF UK):
"We also need to see implementation happening, so countries need to get down to business right away. No Christmas break for them. Immediately, we need to go into #implementation, not least because we’re already two years late. This is a 10-year #framework and we have eight years left to implement it.”

@ChadHoc's work on #Implementation of #proning in #ICU is so cool
@DrTomori Absolutely – couldn’t agree more!
Yes I’ll make sure to keep you posted – likewise please! We’re now running participatory workshops across the 4 UK nations to develop a toolkit to inform #implementation of latest evidence into #NHS settings, and further #SystematicReview work looking at #Breastfeeding support for those with #LongTermConditions coming up next year. Looking forward to reading your forthcoming work this spring - we should link up for future work!
@DrTomori I enjoyed reading your #SystematicReview of reviews on #Breastfeeding – it was good to see several overlaps with our update of the #Cochrane review on #Breastfeeding support interventions, particularly in terms of how the field should now shift from a focus on #effectiveness to a focus on #implementation and scale-up

Now writing up a ‘sister’ #SystematicReview I've led on #ProcessEvaluation studies linked to the interventions included in our #Cochrane review
First up was an excellent primer on #implementation science (getting effective #medical practices into the real world) from Katelin Hoskins and Rinad Beidas at the #UPenn School of Medicine #Bioethics Group. The framework introduced here can easily be adapted to management and tech to dramatically improve the development and outcomes of systems, highly recommend https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PCmRz7HphWk (2/5)
