The real reason Google wants to kill RSS

by Rob Beschizza
Marco Arment:

RSS represents the antithesis of this new world: it’s completely open, decentralized, and owned by nobody, just like the web itself. It allows anyone, large or small, to build something new and disrupt anyone else they’d like because nobody has to fly six salespeople out first to work out a partnership with anyone else’s salespeople.

That world formed the web’s foundations — without that world to build on, Google, Facebook, and Twitter couldn’t exist. But they’ve now grown so large that everything from that web-native world is now a threat to them, and they want to shut it down. “Sunset” it. “Clean it up.” “Retire” it. Get it out of the way so they can get even bigger and build even bigger proprietary barriers to anyone trying to claim their territory.

Well, fuck them, and fuck that.

Yes We Scan: Shepard Fairey approves my Message

by René

Oh, nice! Hatte ich gar nicht mitbekommen wegen Umzug und sowas: Die LA Times hat sich mit Shepard Fairey über die Poster-Remixe im Netz unterhalten und bezieht sich explizit auf meinen Yes We Scan-Fix und Fairey findet’s toll. Sweet!

The parodies, which have appeared on numerous blogs and news sites in recent weeks, deconstruct Fairey’s image, giving it a biting, NSA-themed spin. In one parody, Obama is shown wearing headphones with the words “Yes we scan” emblazoned above him and with text circling his head that reads: “United we progress toward a perfectly monitored society.” […]

Here is Fairey’s full response to The Times:

“I originally supported Obama vigorously because his proclaimed policy positions aligned with my beliefs. I have never been an unconditional Obama supporter or cheerleader, so I’m pleased to see people subvert my Obama images as a way to critique him and demonstrate the wide gap between some of his promises and actions. Subversion of well known symbols and images for social commentary has long been a technique in my repertoire, so I’m glad to see it in the work of others. I have even subverted my own Obama image in support of Occupy. There are no sacred cows, and I agree that Obama needs to be called out on an NSA program that over-reaches to the extreme and shouldn’t be secret. We live in a remix culture and remix is a valuable form of communication when the re-configuration makes a strong statement.”

Shepard Fairey approves of NSA parodies of his Obama ‘Hope’ poster

Danke John Chang, der den Link auf meinem Facebook-Dings postete, wo ich das Cover der FR-Darmstadt gebracht hatte, das mir von einem Sean geschickt wurde: „Grafiker zieht aus einem Kaff bei Darmstadt nach Berlin, macht dort Jahre später nen Remix einer Illu von Shepard Fairey, die um die Welt geht und von dort landet das Teil wieder auf einem Schild bei ner Demo in Frankfurt und auf dem Titel der FR-Darmstadt… Nice one! (Danke Sean!)“

[CVPR 2013] Three Trending Computer Vision Research Areas

by Tomasz Malisiewicz
As I walked through the large poster-filled hall at CVPR 2013, I asked myself, “Quo vadis Computer Vision?" (Where are you going, computer vision?)  I see lots of papers which exploit last year’s ideas, copious amounts of incremental research, and an overabundance of off-the-shelf computational techniques being recombined in seemingly novel ways.  When you are active in computer vision research for several years, it is not rare to find oneself becoming bored by a significant fraction of papers at research conferences.  Right after the main CVPR conference, I felt mentally drained and needed to get a breath of fresh air, so I spent several days checking out the sights in Oregon.  Here is one picture -- proof that the CVPR2013 had more to offer than ideas!



When I returned from sight-seeing, I took a more circumspect look at the field of computer vision.  I immediately noticed that vision research is actually advancing and growing in a healthy way.  (Unfortunately, most junior students have a hard determining which research papers are actually novel and/or significant.)  A handful of new research themes arise each year, and today I’d like to briefly discuss three new computer vision research themes which are likely to rise in popularity in the foreseeable future (2-5 years).

1) RGB-D input data is trending.  

Many of this year’s papers take a single 2.5D RGB-D image as input and try to parse the image into its constituent objects.  The number of papers doing this with RGBD data is seemingly infinite.  Some other CVPR 2013 approaches don’t try to parse the image, but instead do something else like: fit cuboids, reason about affordances in 3D, or reason about illumination.  The reason why such inputs are becoming more popular is simple: RGB-D images can be obtained via cheap and readily available sensors such as Microsoft’s Kinect.  Depth measurements used to be obtained by expensive time of flight sensors (in the late 90s and early 00s), but as of 2013, $150 can buy you one these depth sensing bad-boys!  In fact, I had bought a Kinect just because I thought that it might come in handy one day -- and since I’ve joined MIT, I’ve been delving into the RGB-D reconstruction domain on my own.  It is just a matter of time until the newest iPhone has an on-board depth sensor, so the current line of research which relies on RGB-D input is likely to become the norm within a few years.










2) Mid-level patch discovery is a hot research topic.
Saurabh Singh from CMU introduced this idea in his seminal ECCV 2012 paper, and Carl Doersch applied this idea to large-scale Google Street-View imagery in the “What makes Paris look like Paris?” SIGGRAPH 2012 paper.  The idea is to automatically extract mid-level patches (which could be objects, object parts, or just chunks of stuff) from images with the constraint that those are the most informative patches.  Regarding the SIGGRAPH paper, see the video below.






Unsupervised Discovery of Mid-Level Discriminative Patches Saurabh Singh, Abhinav Gupta, Alexei A. Efros. In ECCV, 2012.








Carl DoerschSaurabh Singh, Abhinav Gupta, Josef Sivic, and Alexei A. Efros. What Makes Paris Look like Paris? In SIGGRAPH 2012. [pdf]

At CVPR 2013, it was evident that the idea of "learning mid-level parts for scenes" is being pursued by other top-tier computer vision research groups.  Here are some CVPR 2013 papers which capitalize on this idea:

Blocks that Shout: Distinctive Parts for Scene Classification. Mayank Juneja, Andrea Vedaldi, CV Jawahar, Andrew Zisserman. In CVPR, 2013. [pdf]

Representing Videos using Mid-level Discriminative Patches. Arpit Jain, Abhinav Gupta, Mikel Rodriguez, Larry Davis. CVPR, 2013. [pdf]

Part Discovery from Partial Correspondence. Subhransu Maji, Gregory Shakhnarovich. In CVPR, 2013. [pdf]

3) Deep-learning and feature learning are on the rise within the Computer Vision community.
It seems that everybody at Google Research is working on Deep-learning.  Will it solve all vision problems?  Is it the one computational ring to rule them all?  Personally, I doubt it, but the rising presence of deep learning is forcing every researcher to brush up on their l33t backprop skillz.  In other words, if you don't know who Geoff Hinton is, then you are in trouble.

Black Sabbath ‘13’ Billboard Ad Campaign by McCann Copenhagen

"For the release of Black Sabbath’s first record in 35 years, we dug our way through many layers of music posters that cover our urban spaces to let people know that the group is back from the darkness."

"The installations were created in different sizes and shapes and we put them up at different poster sights in crowded areas of Copenhagen. We simulated the effect by gluing together layers of old posters and then carving out the holes by hand."

SUS garante maior vitória brasileira em 2014, e dane-se a Copa

by Carlos Cardoso

iron-lung-ward-for-polio-victims

NUNCA MAIS!

Imagine que 95% dos acidentes de carro fossem causados por um vírus. Agora imagine que um grupo de cientistas descobriu uma vacina que protege contra esse vírus, mas como todo bom talismã mágico, há um porém: Você precisa se vacinar antes de aprender a dirigir.

Problema nenhum, certo? Vacine-se as crianças e pronto. Protegidas por toda a vida.

Agora imagine que um grupo de idiotas acha que ao vacinar as crianças antes de aprenderem a dirigir as torna propensas a querer dirigir antes do tempo, e por isso preferem que seus filhos fiquem desprotegidos, suscetíveis ao vírus que causa 95% dos acidentes, mesmo sem nenhuma relação real entre uso da vacina e interesse em dirigir.

Em essência é a vacina contra o HPV, o Human Papyloma Virus. Esse bicho é responsável por verrugas genitais e diversos tipos de câncer, incluindo 95% dos casos de câncer de útero. E EXISTE UMA VACINA! isso mesmo, fuck cancer, uma vacina que aplicada em mulheres (casos de câncer de útero em homens tendem a ser raros) antes da fase sexualmente ativa, quando têm contato com o HPV e outros vírus, garante imunidade.

A polêmica, criada por conservadores e fanáticos religiosos nos EUA, é que ao vacinar crianças e pré-adolescentes estariam estimulando esses jovens e iniciar atividade sexual. Sim, eu sei, não faz sentido, mas mesmo que fizesse se o preço pra proteger minha filha de um troço que causa 95% dos casos de câncer no útero fosse se tornar sexualmente ativa, eu mesmo contrataria o Kid Bengala.

Alheio a essa polêmica babaca, o SUS vai investir R$ 360,7 milhões na compra de 12 milhões de doses, aplicadas em meninas entre 10 e 11 anos, a partir de 2014. No Brasil o câncer de colo de útero é o segundo maior matador de mulheres, por ano são 4,8 mil vítimas fatais e 18.430 novos casos são diagnosticados.

Poderia dizer que há esperança disso mudar, mas não seria verdade. Não é esperança, é praticamente certeza.

Nos EUA, somente 32% das meninas tomaram as 3 doses necessárias para a vacina surtir efeito. O criminoso movimento antivaxxer e conservadores religiosos afetaram as campanhas de saúde pública. MESMO ASSIM comparando com dados pré-2006, quando a vacina foi introduzida, os casos de contaminação por HPV entre adolescentes caíram 56%.

Nenhuma variação na atividade sexual das meninas foi identificada. Estranhamente não associaram tomar injeção com autorização pra liberar a bacurinha.

No Brasil vamos superar de longe essa marca. Nossos conservadores religiosos não costumam encher o saco com assuntos de saúde pública, aqui até padre usa camisinha.

De resto, qual foi a última vez que você viu um cachorro com hidrofobia ou uma criança aleijada por pólio? Vacinas funcionam, vide os casos de sarampo nos EUA após a introdução da vacina:

sarampo

Portanto, faça a coisa certa e vacine suas filhas. Se não quiser esperar o SUS, a vacina já está na rede privada, e vale cada centavo de sei lá quanto estão cobrando. Não estou pedindo que acredite em mim. Como diz Richard Dawkins, ciência funciona. Se você baseia medicina em ciência, ela cura pessoas, se projeta aviões baseado em ciência, eles voam.

Ciência funciona, bitches.

A gente lemos: Turma da Mônica – Laços, por Poderoso Porco

by Poderoso Porco

preview-laços-2

.
Eu realmente não sei por onde começar esse texto.
Pela primeira vez que eu li o Vitor Caffaggi, lá em Punny Parker?
Quando eu conheci a Lu Caffagi, no lançamento do Lady’s Comics?

Salto tudo: vamos ao FIQ de 2011 quando, de dentro do aquário reservado para as palestras, Sidney Gusman, esse “gigante pra ninguém botar defeito”, anunciou o tal projeto de Graphics MSP – histórias longas, com uma abordagem diferente, mais madura, envolvendo os personagens da Maurício de Sousa Produções. Pra deixar claro que não estava de brincadeira, logo de cara esse cidadão corintiano soltou quatro teaserezes sobre as HQ’s. Nós aqui de BH, da galerinha do Clube de Leitura da Gibiteca, fomos pegos com as calças na mão: como assim uma das graphics vai ser com o Vitor e a Lu? E justamente aquela envolvendo A turma da Mônica?

cafaggi

O tempo correu e, depois de muito “lança-não-lança”, pude pôr minhas mãos em Laços. Desculpa se parece tendencioso, mas eu (e muita gente) tinha certeza de que ia ser foda. Fosse porque a delicadeza e o cuidado (sem falar da competência) do Vitor e da Lu já são mais do que conhecidos, fosse porque Astronauta – Magnetar, do Danilo Beyruth, já tinha mostrado que o nível da coisa toda era bem alto (quem conhece o Sidney, quem ouve as histórias do editor Sidney Gusman sabe o nível que ele estabelece pro que vai levar seu nome), aquele teaser já tinha sido muito claro – não ia ser menos do que ducacete!

E foi.

Em Laços, o Floquinho, o cachorro verde do Cebolinha, desapareceu. Formando uma força-tarefa infalível, Mônica, Magali e Cascão se unem ao garoto que fala elado para procurar. O resultado? O resultado é Goonies, é E.T., é Conta Comigo… O resultado é a sua infância trazida de volta em pouco menos de 80 páginas.

Como disse o Fábio Ochôa, em sua “resenha em quadrinhos”:

Fabio Ochôa

1002942_645992435428748_164324788_n

.
Laços é um álbum terno e tocante, gostoso de ler e que, infelizmente, acaba rápido demais. Vitor e Lu conseguiram captar toda a essência da Turma e ainda assim, dar um passo além. Isso inclusive está explícito, já que, se não me falha a memória, nas HQ’s regulares da MSP a Turminha tem idade pré-escolar, e em Laços já estão por volta dos sete anos de idade – há um ar de novidade, de avanço e, ao mesmo tempo, de que as coisas são exatamente como a gente está acostumado. Laços é um gibi da Turma da Mônica e, ao mesmo tempo, é muito diferente de um gibi da Turma da Mônica. Palmas aos Cafaggi por gerarem esse “duplipensar” maravilhoso.

Antes de terminar, é preciso comentar as artes: o trabalho do Vitor a gente já tá careca (uns mais do que os outros) de saber como é, ou seja, foda. Pela primeira vez numa história longa, a Mônica realmente parece gorducha (ainda que menos dentuça). Por isso, justamente pelo “grande público” já conhecer a arte do Vitor, é que a grande surpresa do álbum certamente será a arte da Lu (que faz os flashbacks). Pidalolas! Vou te contar, amiguinhos, a Srtª Lu Cafaggi detona! É ela quem faz a abertura do álbum e santo macarrão, é bonito demais. Sua arte traz um ar orgânico e dinâmico que mesmo o Vitor, mais escolado, pouco se aproxima. Tem um quê de J. Márcio Nicolosi (ele próprio da MSP) e Cyril Pedrosa (Três Sombras) que são de encher os olhos. É belíssimo – e tão pouquinho… Ainda sobre o trabalho da Lu, no lançamento o Afonso Andrade me chamou atenção para o fato de que, se considerando envolvimento, tiragem e alcance, talvez esse seja o maior trabalho em HQ já feito por uma mulher no Brasil. Dei uma pesquisada aqui e, não lembrando de indícios que refutem a teoria do Afonso, só posso dizer que a produção feminina em larga escala, no Brasil, começou muito, mas MUITO bem.

.
Enfim. Se você não entendeu, Laços é lindo. É, essa palavra mesmo, “lindo”. E de hoje em diante, sempre que alguém me perguntar se eu “não tive infância” porque ainda compro HQ’s e brinquedos, foi dizer que sim, tive infância sim. E ela foi eternizada naquele terceiro álbum, da esquerda pra direita, na segunda primeira prateleira…

Use Multiple Large Words as Passwords to Boost Spelling and Security

by Eric Ravenscraft

Use Multiple Large Words as Passwords to Boost Spelling and Security

Two of the biggest problems with passwords is how hard it is to make a secure one and how difficult those are to remember. Solve both problems by using an assortment of vocabulary words to learn.

As we (and xkcd) have discussed before, longer, multi-word passwords are harder to crack than short ones with a bunch of random characters in them. Since you're already in the neighborhood, you may as well exercise your spelling skills at the same time by choosing some miscellaneous hard-to-spell words. This way, you'll get in the rhythm of typing them correctly. If you're looking for a few, here's one of the many lists of commonly misspelled words the internet has to offer.

Of course, the one downside to this is that some places have character limits for passwords or even require short lengths and extra characters. In many cases there's nothing you can do about that, though an email to the company asking for more complex password options couldn't hurt.

LPT: start changing the password on the family computer every week to a big hard word like "photosynthesis" or "subterfuge" | Reddit

Yahoo kills Alta Vista and other products you never knew

Oh noes... how are the Pawnee people going to search the Internet now?

In an effort to streamline the company and reduce costs, Yahoo is killing things. One of the products on the chopping block carries a ring of nostalgia for internet users of a certain age: Alta Vista, one of the early search engines that preceded Google's dominance.

Large-scale quantum chip validated

dwave_ones_in_the_lab_large

D-Wave One computers (credit: D-Wave)

A team of scientists at USC has verified that quantum effects are indeed at play in the first commercial quantum optimization processor.

The team demonstrated that the D-Wave processor housed at the USC-Lockheed Martin Quantum Computing Center behaves in a manner that indicates that quantum mechanics has a functional role in the way it works. The demonstration involved a small subset of the chip’s 128 qubits.

In other words, the device appears to be operating as a quantum processor — something that scientists had hoped for but have needed extensive testing to verify.

The quantum processor was purchased from Canadian manufacturer D-Wave nearly two years ago by Lockheed Martin and housed at the Information Sciences Institute (ISI) based at the USC Viterbi School of Engineering. As the first of its kind, the task for scientists putting it through its paces was to determine whether the quantum computer was operating as hoped.

“Using a specific test problem involving eight qubits, we have verified that the D-Wave processor performs optimization calculations [that is, finds lowest-energy solutions] using a procedure that is consistent with quantum annealing and is inconsistent with the predictions of classical annealing,” said Daniel Lidar, scientific director of the Quantum Computing Center and one of the researchers on the team. Lidar holds joint appointments at USC Viterbi and the USC Dornsife College of Letters, Arts and Sciences.

Quantum annealing is a method of solving optimization problems using quantum mechanics — at a large enough scale, potentially much faster than a traditional processor can.

Research institutions throughout the world build and use quantum processors but most only have a few quantum bits, or qubits.

Qubits have the capability of encoding the two digits of one and zero at the same time, as opposed to traditional bits, which can encode distinctly either a one or a zero. This property, called superposition, along with the ability of quantum states to “tunnel” through energy barriers, are hoped to play a role in helping future generations of the D-Wave processor to ultimately perform optimization calculations much faster than traditional processors.

With 108 functional qubits, the D-Wave processor at USC inspired hopes for a significant advance in the field of quantum computing when it was installed in October 2011 — provided it worked as a quantum information processor. Quantum processors can fall victim to a phenomenon called decoherence, which stifles their ability to behave in a quantum fashion.

The USC team’s research showed that the chip, in fact, performed largely as hoped, demonstrating the potential for quantum optimization on a larger-than-ever scale.

“Our work seems to show that, from a purely physical point of view, quantum effects play a functional role in information processing in the D-Wave processor,” said Sergio Boixo, first author of the research paper, who conducted the research while he was a computer scientist at ISI and research assistant professor at USC Viterbi.

The news comes just two months after the Quantum Computing Center’s original D-Wave processor — known commercially as the Rainier chip — was upgraded to a new 512-qubit Vesuvius chip. The computing center, which includes a magnetically shielded box that is kept frigid (near absolute zero) to protect the computer against decoherence, was designed to be upgradable to keep up with the latest developments in the field.

The new Vesuvius chip at USC is currently the only one in operation outside of D-Wave. A second such chip, owned by Google and housed at NASA’s Ames Research Center in Moffett Field, Calif., is expected to become operational later this year.

Next, the USC team will take the Vesuvius chip for a test drive, putting it through the same paces as the Rainier chip.

The research was supported by the Lockheed Martin Corp., the U.S. Army Research Office, the National Science Foundation, and the Army Research Office Multidisciplinary University Research Initiative.

Practicing privacy: Encryption

Tadeu

Vale lembrar que não é qualquer encriptação, a NSA deve conseguir desencriptar bastante coisa.

In honor of July's resolution, "Focus on security," I've prepared this article on the basics of using encryption.

Encryption makes privacy a right that can be claimed rather than granted.

Plenty of others have weighed in on the merits of encryption and its importance in modern times.

I won't weigh in further.

This article is a quick summary of basic encryption tools for protecting your data and your privacy. The goal is to raise awareness of these tools.
