I've been seeing a term that fash coders use for themselves more and more:
"Builders."
(It's implying that people who don't agree with their fascist worldviews are "tearing down" society and the world and have nothing to contribute and are therefore expendable.)

Characterizing FaaS Workflows on Public Clouds: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly
Function-as-a-service (FaaS) is a popular serverless computing paradigm for developing event-driven functions that elastically scale on public clouds. FaaS workflows, such as AWS Step Functions and Azure Durable Functions, are composed from FaaS functions, like AWS Lambda and Azure Functions, to build practical applications. But, the complex interactions between functions in the workflow and the limited visibility into the internals of proprietary FaaS platforms are major impediments to gaining…

Benchmarking Machine Learning Models for Fault Classification and Localization in Power System Protection
The increasing integration of distributed energy resources (DERs), particularly renewables, poses significant challenges for power system protection, with fault classification (FC) and fault localization (FL) being among the most critical tasks. Conventional protection schemes, based on fixed thresholds, cannot reliably identify and localize short circuits with the increasing complexity of the grid under dynamic conditions. Machine learning (ML) offers a promising alternative; however, systemat…

Annotation-Free One-Shot Imitation Learning for Multi-Step Manipulation Tasks
Recent advances in one-shot imitation learning have enabled robots to acquire new manipulation skills from a single human demonstration. While existing methods achieve strong performance on single-step tasks, they remain limited in their ability to handle long-horizon, multi-step tasks without additional model training or manual annotation. We propose a method that can be applied to this setting provided a single demonstration without additional model training or manual annotation. We evaluated…

Fox and YouTube agree to ‘short-term extension’ as distribution negotiations continue
Fox and YouTube TV on Wednesday agreed to an eleventh-hour short-term extension to their distribution deal, narrowly avoiding a blackout of all Fox’s content on the platform.

"Celles et ceux qui se battent pour la taxe Zucman n’en ont pas après les patrons, les riches et les entreprises en général. Ils veulent de la justice fiscale face Š la partie, minoritaire, des puissants qui veulent faire des profits et accroître leur fortune sur le dos de la collectivité en contribuant le moins possible."

Para lembrar (sobre Charlie #Kirk): Marco Feliciano falando sobre balas na cabeça de #esquerdistas

Coletivismo on Instagram: "💁 Trecho de entrevista de 2018 do Pastor Marco Feliciano ao programa de rádio e televisão Pânico, no qual ele faz piada de péssimo gosto contra "esquerdistas", ressurge novamente na Internet após Direita pedir empatia pela mort4 de Charlie Kirk. Na ocasião, fica perceptível o incômodo de alguns apresentadores com a piada e pela falta de empatia de Feliciano. "Quando um esquerdista leva um tiro na cabeça, ele demora uma semana para morrer, porque é o tempo que demora para a bala achar o cérebro”. Essas foram as palavras do parlamentar Marco Feliciano no Programa Pânico, no mesmo contexto em que mencionava a morte de Marielle Franco. #marcosfeliciano #charliekirk #esquerda #direita #pânico #brasil #2018 #relembrar"
