Of course!
From a consent perspective, I wonder whether it's paying attention to existing signals like indexable and discoverable on public posts?
@jdp23 @ansuz @Homebrewandhacking I suspect it isn't. Consent seems to be ignored a lot of the time, the exceptions are notable.
There's little excuse for ignorance now.

the fact that the apparent author links to readily.news from their masto bio but fails to mention that it's their project makes me think that they know what they're doing is sketchy.
people who are proud of their work tend to put their name on it, but even on the site itself there's zero mention of who's behind it. I only found confirmation of it because I went digging through old versions on archive.org

@jdp23 @onepict @ansuz @Homebrewandhacking I don't think so, considering followers-only posts are being scraped

Yeah you did great detective work -- and the FediForum session makes it clear it's him. And yes, he's not acting like somebody who's proud of it. So maybe I should initially approach him somewhat gently on Bluesky instead of confronting him with "you are thoroughly busted" in the first post.

Alternatively, if anybody else feels they can toot about this in a way that gets more traction, please do!
Maybe I ought to change the headline of my article to "Techbro builds Cambridge Analytica for the Fediverse" or something more inflammatory like that?
@ansuz honestly the observed facts are bad enough, don't sensationalize

@GustavinoBevilacqua credo che la procedura sia la stessa di make-origami.com/HelenaVerrill… che probabilmente è più comodo da seguire
mi aspetto che numberphile parli anche del fatto che non è un'approssimazione

Poi me lo studio con calma, grazie!

Qualcuno sta iniziando ad accorgersi che questa alla fine risulterà l'unica via da percorrere. Altrimenti, il disastro nazionale.

Un semplice quizzino linguistico-matematico
PRIMUS INTER PARES
Secondo me questa è talmente semplice che non dovrebbe avere difficoltà a trovare la risposta anche chi ha sempre sostenuto di avere difficoltà con la matematica. Comunque la risposta con microspiegazione la trovate sul mio sito https://wok.oblomov.eu/mathesis/primus-inter-pares/
