I have decided, as a #selfhost with just two other people on my instance, that I'm going to limit threads.net following the example of @… quoted below. I didn't know that you can “unlimit” specific accounts! This is an interesting option.
For other a…

A screenshot from the mastodon admin page for the threads.net domain after it has been “limited” and so appears in the list in the Federated section as a limited account. There are a number of graphs, all clickable, that show stored accounts, stored posts, stored media, their followers here, our followers there, and reports about them.
A screenshot showing the full admin page with menu on the side ad Accounts selected under Moderation. This is where you go when you click on the stored accounts graph under the threads.net domain federation page. There are a number of accounts listed with their posts, followers, and last active.
A screenshot of stonekettle@threads.net account page in the mastodon admin shows his name and profile pic, his posts, and other stats. It is listed as “Limited”
Same screenshot as previous but now there is a green “Successfully undid limit of stonekettle@threads.net” message and the Login status is now “No limits imposed”

President Biden has turned on the Federation option for his Threads account! @potus@threads.net While we have threads.net limited here because of the expectation of poor moderation, his account, as well as a number of others, have been exempted from limiting and can be followed in hear-me.social the same as any Mastodon account. Remember, though, the feature is in beta. It's one way. You can read posts from #Threads accounts, but those accounts cannot yet see replies, nor can they see who f…

Threads’ fediverse beta opens to share your posts on Mastodon, too

"Currently, Threads accounts do not see individual likes on their federated posts, instead getting a notification that says ‘4 fediverse users from 3 servers liked this post’. According to Mastodon CTO Renaud Chaput, Threads cannot use profile info from fediverse accounts on Threads yet because they are not allowed to do so yet by their Legal department."

If you see a god, don't hesitate to ask him the important questions.
(Honestly, I am kind of pissed people seem to underestimate the positives of large networks like #Threads joining the Fediverse.)

Aggressive or Imperceptible, or Both: Network Pruning Assisted Hybrid Byzantines in Federated Learning
Federated learning (FL) has been introduced to enable a large number of clients, possibly mobile devices, to collaborate on generating a generalized machine learning model thanks to utilizing a larger number of local samples without sharing to offer certain privacy to collaborating clients. However, due to the participation of a large number of clients, it is often difficult to profile and verify each client, which leads to a security threat that malicious participants may hamper the accuracy o…
