If SpaceX hadn't shut off Starlink, they would have (arguably) been in violation of US law by allowing weaponization of dual-use technology intended for civilian use. Just like GPS units turn off above 600m/s AND/OR set altitude [contains quote post or other embedded content]11 Dec 2024 05:34 +0000at://did:plc:hdoru3uiiw4acmnd6hc7paq4/app.bsky.feed.post/3lcyztwrik22jhttps://bsky.app/profile/areoform.bsky.social/post/3k3lrgiogyx23PSA - Don't scroll Bluesky's new "Discover" feed in public. Someone neglected to add a NSFW detection algorithm to their project. 🤦‍♀️28 Jul 2023 15:36 +0000at://did:plc:hdoru3uiiw4acmnd6hc7paq4/app.bsky.feed.post/3k3lrgiogyx23https://bsky.app/profile/areoform.bsky.social/post/3k3kagojdbq23No. This "fact" is a fairly common misunderstanding of what the stat is measuring. First, there is no "a photon" that is making a trip from the core to the outer layer.

When projects move fast, the obvious sometimes slips.

Giving users the power to craft their own algorithms and then share it with other users is incredibly powerful. We already do UGC. Why can't we do UGA/UGR?
