#fedijobs leider befristete, aber eigentlich länger benötigte Stelle für #FullStack devs oder jemanden der Back oder Frontend kann und das andere etwas professionalisieren möchte. Projektstelle mit E12 im Kontext #Bibliothek, #Kitodo, #DigitalHumanities und #Digitalisierung.

Arbeitsort ist super, Team ist nett, können leider keinen Barrista oder Obstkorb bieten, dafür aber angemessene Arbeitsbedingungen.

Fragen gern an mich, Infos da:

If the "safety controls" in Ex Libris's AI search isn't even in their own control, it's clearly not worth shipping! How did anyone okay this? https://acrlog.org/2025/07/21/we-couldnt-generate-an-answer-for-your-question/

does anyone here know any German (IT) companies near Dresden that my friend could work at for 6 months for an internship? it needs to be queer and neurodivergent friendly, and related to "Markscheidewesen & Geodäsie, im Bereich Geowissenschaften, Bergbau etc", so probably not a lot of IT companies would fall under this category, but this matter is very urgent. please boost!

Weil ich auch der Versuchung schon mal nicht widerstehen konnte:
Leute, nutzt für simple Dinge unter #Linux keine #KI, sondern man-pages
Falls ihr keine Zeit oder Muße habt, das alles durchzulesen und nur einfache Beispiele sucht: Nutzt tldr-Pages: https://tldr.sh/ . Das sind vereinfachte man-pages mit praktischen Beispielen. Kann man sich auch lokal installieren, ich nutze unter #Debian dafür "tealdeer".

Übrigens ist es kein Grund zum schämen , da immer wieder nachzusehen. Auch ich, mit +25 Jahren Linux-Erfahrung, muss immer wieder mal nachsehen, weil ich halt nicht alle Kommandozeilenargumente im Kopf habe.

KI für so was zu nutzen ist dagegen ein Grund zum schämen (ist KI-Scham eigentlich inzwischen ein Ding?)

In her report, “Content Moderation: The Harrowing, Traumatizing Job that Leaves Many African Data Workers with Mental Health Issues and Drug Dependency,” Fasica explores the realities faced by data workers doing content moderation for Meta in Nairobi, Kenya. She details the severe mental health consequences of the job and highlights how workers are neglected and exploited, operating under poor and often degrading conditions.

Introducing <PubNote>: open-source XML tools for biomedical research metadata for OLSPub and PubMed

Today I'm announcing version 1.0.0 of <PubNote>, a suite of open-source XML tools for biomedical research metadata exposition to support publishers and researchers using XML files with OLSPub from @ZBMED and the US-based PubMed.

Got asked to review a book proposal for "A Guide to Prompt Engineering".

More accurate title: "A Guide to Poking at the Environmentally Disastrous Racist Pile of Linear Algebra Trained on Stolen Data and Exploitative Labor Practices to Produce Outputs You're Too Lazy to Learn to Evaluate"

Unfortunately, I'm being laid off at Intel. If you know or hear something about job opportunities, I would be very interested to hear about them.

Mir wurde heute erklärt, wir gut #KI (konkret #Copilot) dabei helfen könnte, Tabellen auszuwerten.

Boy, are we doomed.

Imagine the following situation: your company receives a ZIP file with an invoice, and you're the person responsible for checking if all the details are correct, before sending it off to the payment department. You open the archive, and there's a single PDF inside. You view it, and all the details match—your company's details, seller's company's details, items and total amount are what's expected, and even the bank account number is the same as on previous invoices from this company. As everything looks good, you forward the ZIP with the invoice to the payment team, and move onto reviewing other incoming invoices.

A few days later you receive the same invoice again, but you already have it in the system. Just in case you reach out to the payment department whether it's been paid, and they confirm it has—great, no action required.

Another month passes by, and you get a "payment due" reminder. What's this? You remember it being paid already, so what gives. You ask the payment team, they again confirm the invoice was settled. You phone the seller about this, but they say they received nothing. So you head down the hall to the payment department, you open the invoice on your laptop, and start going through the details with them. But what's this? The destination account number and amount in the wire transfer and the invoice don't match! The payment team manager's face gets a bit red—seems like it was their mistake? But no! They show you the invoice, and the amount and account number match the actual payment... but it doesn't match what you see on your screen! How can this be?

Both of you re-download the ZIP archive from the email you've forwarded and open the PDF inside. And there it is—you see two different invoices. What in the world is happening?

Immediately you report it up the chain, and your boss's boss gets a pair of IT forensics consultants on the job. They investigate, and later you learn that your company has been scammed with a pair of different invoices hidden inside a schizophrenic ZIP file. This means that you—on your work laptop running a certain software stack—saw and approved the correct invoice. But the payment team—running a different software stack—saw the fake invoice inside the ZIP, which they thought was what you had approved. Even later on you find out that the seller's company has been partially compromised and a lot of their customers got fake invoices. But that's water under the bridge at that point, and the money your company transferred is long gone.
