Experimenting with colors ...

#Archeology #Radiocarbon #Python #OpenScience #Matplotlib #ClimateScience #Prehistory

Laid off :/

I know:

- Unity C#
- Rust
- Python

I can learn:

- Anything

I am in Massachusetts. Remote work would be great too

I've 8 years of experience as an MIT software engineer specializing in research simulation platform projects. I would prefer: not creating the next big AI thing, not making weapons, never having to think about blockchain anything.

Anyone got anything?

The @ThePSF is hiring an infrastructure engineer. If you have an interest in keeping the things that make Python work going this is for you!

I created my Lurk account a year ago now. At that time, I decided to leave Instagram to give another shot at the Fediverse (which I tried through pixelfed in 2020 before I used Instagram).

I found interesting content on the Fediverse, but to be honest, I still find more content of my interest on Instagram because this community has sadly not made the move...

I do not post there anymore, but I go there from time to time (much less than a year ago hopefully!). And one of my most valuable data is my "saved posts" page on IG.
But navigating through it is a nightmare, it's very slow and you cannot filter by tag.

I've been wanting to make a tool to do that for a while already and I finally made it! Without the need of a Facebook Creator account, just some #python libraries.

So if you'd like to at least retrieve your archive from there and never go back there, this tool is for you!

Update: of course I forgot the link to the code!

https://theshamblog.com/an-ai-agent-published-a-hit-piece-on-me/

This is a terrifying piece about what #OpenClaw has unleashed with its #agentic “ #ai” bots. Scott is a volunteer maintainer for #matplotlib, #python’s go-to plotting library. An agent tied to merge code, and Scott said no. The agent, apparently autonomously, proceeded to attempt to blackmail Scott, and when that didn’t work started posting hallucinations attacking Scott.

His lead in to the article: An AI agent of unknown ownership autonomously wrote and published a personalized hit piece about me after I rejected its code, attempting to damage my reputation and shame me into accepting its changes into a mainstream python library. This represents a first-of-its-kind case study of misaligned AI behavior in the wild, and raises serious concerns about currently deployed AI agents executing blackmail threats.

This nonsense needs to be nipped in the bud.

IOSACal 0.7 is here. Nothing fancy but lots of maintenance work that keeps the project going, improved documentation and - if I can keep it up - a renewed development wave.

https://pypi.org/project/iosacal/0.7.0/

Newsletter post is here https://buttondown.com/iosacal/archive/iosacal-07/

Feel free to tell realpython whether you want to see them create content on using AI to code.

I told them no:

(i) unethical training process
(ii) less maintainable code
(iii) deskilling of developers
