This clip of actor Leslie Nielson talking about the dangers of #hacking and unscrupulous #hackers at the "Cybermania '94" Ultimate Gamer Awards, the first televised video game awards show. It was held at the Universal Amphitheatre at Universal Studios Hollywood and broadcast live on TBS. You can see some l0pht, cDc and 2600 characters discussing the cybers.

Call for Talks and Workshops - Quantum Village 4 @ DEFCON 33!

We're very excited and pleased to announce that out Call for Talks/Workshops for this year's event is now OPEN! At Quantum Village we want to 'Access All Quantum States'; from how to hack quantum networks to how quantum engineering might shift our collective futures. And we want YOU to be a part of this incredible year!

So far we are lining up amazing activities including our Quantum Capture the Flag, quantum art demonstrations, our upcoming hackable Open Source Quantum Device... do you have what it takes to join the Quantum Hacker Elite?

Google DocsCall for Talks/WorkshopsAt Quantum Village we want to 'Access All Quantum States'; from how to hack quantum networks to how quantum engineering might shift our collective futures. We have a plethora of new activities, open to all levels, for hackers to come and learn quantum technologies - workshops, some talks, interactive demonstrations, and real quantum hardware! This year, we are launching our first open source quantum device, and it is designed to be the world's first hackable quantum device! Inspo List: Here are some things we are especially keen to showcase - but this list isn't exclusive! * Quantum Hacking and Security Research. e.g. from Grover's, Shor's, Regev's Algos to Qubit Crosstalk and the threat model for quantum computers * Quantum Networking: e.g. Microwave/Photonic Bridges, photonics experiments, etc. * Modular Quantum Computer Designs * Quantum Computing Hardware Deepdives: Photonics/Neutral Atoms * Open Source Quantum Hardware Projects * Quantum Algorithms Explainer/Intros for the Layman * Quantum Applications in the Wild * Quantum and the Arts... Creative approaches/applications and what quantum culture might look like... * Quantum Sensing and Metrization - how quantum sees the world differently, and is that better? * Policy/Standards/Ethics for Quantum Tech - who controls the quantum future? Talks should be around 45mins, 90mins for workshops if they have an interactive component. For intro talks we like that this is ideally someone with substantial experience or record of teaching - this helps to ensure that n00bs get the best start possible. We are looking to get all of the responses in by mid-May and then quickly turned around! **DISCLAIMER** - Quantum Village and DEF CON are NOT sales conferences, and we will reject without review any talks that look like they are garnered towards selling services outside of the bounds of our remit.

the evil elite are evil against others but they don't let evil arrive to them. that's why they have money. and this also affects the meaning of security #hackers are the evil elite immune to evil? it is not evil when fury and rage are used against the evil elite

“[Mistral's] models […] are firmly middling. […] So #Mistral has tried to make its name by competing more obliquely. For instance, many of its models are #opensource: anyone may download and use them without explicit permission, for no charge. Others are released under the company’s own "research" #licence; commercial users must pay for them, #hobbyists and #hackers can fool around with them #freely.”

Hello #hackers #tinkerers #explorers #minimalist #oldschoolers etc there are now #usenet talks about a new newsgroup for the #rust #rustlang programming language, you can participate in the #big-8 #big8 decision making in the #newsgroup news.groups.proposals the thread is under comp.lang.rust the big-8 approved an official #go lang newsgroup last year or so, among all the old newsgroups cleaning and spam blocking this is another sympton of the revamping of usenet 2.0 news.novabbs.org/usenet/articl
