@signalapp@mastodon.world I would rather like to do the opposite: using multiple Signal accounts on the same device. Even WhatsApp can do this.

@lina@vt.social Programming competitions are banning LLMs, see e.g. https://info.atcoder.jp/entry/llm-rules-en How are CTFs any different?

@lina@vt.social There are programming competitions where participants run their solutions locally and submit the output. But they are usually also required to submit the code, even though it is not automatically judged. If cheating is suspected, the judges may look into the code. Also there may be automated checks for plagiarism etc. CTFs could do the same. There really isn't a good reason to keep solutions secret after the challenge concludes, and published solutions can serve as a learning material for future challenges.

@andybaio Even looking at Instagram and YouTube videos side by side, I struggle to find anything wrong in the YouTube videos. I only see that the YouTube videos are sharper. How do people so easily notice those AI artifacts?

@WPalant@infosec.exchange If a contributor keeps their fascist views outside of the project spaces but openly posts them elsewhere, what should a project do? I think that many projects are fine with that as long as the said contributor doesn't attack other project members, but maybe they shouldn't be. In the case of KDE, one user posted a comment in a discussion thread about technical policy, calling out another user for their racist posts elsewhere. I think that a technical discussion thread is not an appropriate venue for discussing other people's conduct, and so some moderator action was warranted.

@lina@vt.social Programming competitions are similar. The most difficult part of solving a problem is devising an efficient algorithm, implementing it is usually much more straightforward. A participant willing to use LLMs can gain significant advantage even if they code the actual solution by themselves, just by using LLMs to gain insight into the problem.
