Re: [nexa] Geomatica e AI..conoscenze da trasmettere

Buona sera Cristina, vorrei esprimere la mia semplice opinione in risposta al tuo messaggio. Premetto che sono un tecnico che lavora da sempre (1976) nel settore delle tecnologie informatiche. Eccola! Innanzitutto, le "aperture" sono sinonimo di emancipazione ovvero l'essere umano libero dalla schiavitù della propria volontà, da preconcetti, da pregiudizi, da schemi prefissati i quali sono obiettivi che molti vorrebbero raggiungere, alcuni ci sono riusciti ed altri ancora non sanno come incominciare. Chi non riconosce questa esigenza, forse, è inconsapevolmente in uno stato cosiddetto psicotico. Dopodiché, ti chiedo aiuto: vorrei che tu mi aiutassi a capire il tuo pensiero: "... mi sento in dovere di diffondere una realtà .... che incide necessariamente sul nostro nazionale e sovranazionale sistema giuridico. ..... Mi riferisco, a titolo esemplificativo, alle imprese, alla rete di imprese, ai nuovi diritti e alle nuove tutele anche per i singoli, alla contrattualistica, alle decisioni dei Giudici, e, in generale, alla normativa vigente e all'orientamento europeo.". Esattamente, qual è il busillis? Cordialmente, Aldo Mobile +39.3482244924 ---------------------- From: nexa <nexa-bounces(a)server-nexa.polito.it> on behalf of cristina <cristina(a)cossuavv.191.it> Sent: martedì 22 ottobre 2019 22:50 To: Agata Lo Tauro; nexa(a)server-nexa.polito.it Subject: Re: [nexa] Geomatica e AI..conoscenze da trasmettere Buona sera a tutti, scusate l'intrusione e, forse, la banalità del mio pensiero. Come avvocato e giudice onorario (con un po' di esperienza di docenza) mi sento in dovere di diffondere una realtà (che non è il "futuro", come di frequente sento dire nel mio piccolo ambiente di giuristi) che incide necessariamente sul nostro nazionale e sovranazionale sistema giuridico. Mi riferisco, a titolo esemplificativo, alle imprese, alla rete di imprese, ai nuovi diritti e alle nuove tutele anche per i singoli, alla contrattualistica, alle decisioni dei Giudici, e, in generale, alla normativa vigente e all'orientamento europeo. Vi chiedo se l'idea di "aprire" le Vostre autorevoli competenze sia un pensiero poco elegante e, se è così, mi scuso sinceramente di aver accarezzato questa idea. Lieta e onorata di poter leggere le Vostre preziose considerazioni, che quotidianamente mi arricchiscono, porgo i più cordiali saluti. m. cristina Inviato da smartphone Samsung Galaxy. -------- Messaggio originale -------- Da: Agata Lo Tauro <agatalotauro(a)gmail.com> Data: 22/10/19 19:50 (GMT+01:00) A: nexa(a)server-nexa.polito.it Oggetto: [nexa] Geomatica e AI Geomatica e AI applicate ai dati provenienti dal mondo dei Beni Culturali - Workshop a Torino 12-13 Dicembre 2019 Gentilissimi, perdonate la domanda: Hanno dato una "impostazione internazionale" all'evento? https://www.archeomatica.it/documentazione/intelligenza-artificiale-in-geom… [https://www.archeomatica.it/images/2019/10/21/ghhkfbdgjghglkon_thumbnail.jpg]<https://www.archeomatica.it/documentazione/intelligenza-artificiale-in-geom…> Geomatica e AI applicate ai dati provenienti dal mondo dei Beni Culturali - Workshop a Torino 12-13 Dicembre 2019 |Documentazione - Archeomatica<https://www.archeomatica.it/documentazione/intelligenza-artificiale-in-geom…> www.archeomatica.it L’utilizzo dell’Intelligenza Artificiale e di algoritmi di apprendimento profondo quali Machine e Deep Learning, hanno recentemente cambiato il modo di fare ricerca e analisi in molti settori scientifici, dalla medicina alla fisica, dalle scienze umane all'ingegneria.

Grazie di cuore Giacomo che pensi ai bambini :-) Anche l'IA può aiutare tanto in questi settori... I guess you know :-) https://www.avsi.org/it/news/2019/01/23/kenya-one-year-of-sustainable-futur… Poi ti avevo chiesto anche dei consigli... "Gentile Giacomo, è piaciuto questo post a diversi colleghi (vari international networks...)... Può interessare anche a NEXA? "Digital Feudalism is going to affect everyone in our planet, so it is important that there are policy and frameworks to reduce Digital Feudalism. I think it is important to get opinions from all different perspectives to help us understand more - from scientists perspective, student perspective, educator perspective, Billionaire vendor owner perspective, government perspective, SME perspective, startups perspective, Parents perspective etc." https://lnkd.in/dKCFGkx # # Ad maiora, Agata

Dal 2009: "Facebook Withdraws Changes in Data Use"

Flashback dal 2009. jc *Facebook Withdraws Changes in Data Use** * By BRAD STONE and BRIAN STELTER FEB. 18, 2009 Facebook, the popular social networking site where people share photos and personal updates with friends and acquaintances, lost some face on Wednesday. After three days of pressure from angry users and the threat of a formal legal complaint by a coalition of consumer advocacy groups, the company reversed changes to its contract with users that had appeared to give it perpetual ownership of their contributions to the service.

GNOME files defense against patent troll
by Giacomo Tesio Oct. 21, 2019

Oct. 21, 2019

A month ago, GNOME was hit by a patent troll for developing the Shotwell image management application. It’s the first time a free software project has been targeted in this way, but we worry it won’t be the last. Rothschild Patent Imaging, LLC offered to let us settle for a high five figure amount, for which they would drop the case and give us a licence to carry on developing Shotwell. This would have been simple to do so; it would have caused less work, cost less money, and provided the Foundation a lot less stress. But it also would be wrong. Agreeing to this would leave this patent live, and allow this to be used as a weapon against countless others. We will stand firm against this baseless attack, not just for GNOME and Shotwell, but for all free and open source software projects. For these reasons, GNOME Foundation Executive Director Neil McGovern instructed our legal counsel at Shearman & Sterling to file three papers with the court in California.

What does the FSF censor during the Richard Stallman lynching?
by Giacomo Tesio Oct. 21, 2019

Oct. 21, 2019

https://danielpocock.com/what-does-fsf-censor/ In my previous blog, I looked at how to work around censorship in mailing lists, especially the Free Software Foundation. After all, the Free Software Foundation tells us that they use the word Free as in Speech, rather than Free as in Beer. [...] Why do the FSF staff censor an email like this supporting the founder of their organization and the founder of the Free Software movement? Has the FSF become another Fake Community? Since raising the issue of censorship in FSF, I received a number of emails from people who feel their own communications have been censored. It looks like censorship is being used for multiple reasons: - To censor communications about the lynching of Richard Stallman and hide the voices supporting him - To hide the questions about former FSF employee Molly de Blanc and the conflicts of interest that helped her rise to the role of OSI board president. - To hide questions about money from Google that has poisoned other organizations ($300,000 to Debian before the Debian Christmas lynchings, €75,000 to FSFE when they abolished community representatives). How much does FSF receive from Google, why do they dodge these questions? Just as MIT Media Lab staff systematically hid donations from convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, Free Software organizations are systematically hiding donations from Google. Censorship is one of the tools they use to achieve this deception. ____ Dannati hacker... si ostinano a pensare con la propria testa! Giacomo
