Here is a machine learning challenge: "Decode" EEG to estimate what a listener was hearing, actually, what features of continuous speech can be predicted from EEG.

The challenge runs from now until February 6, 2023, after which the top 5 teams will be invited to submit a 2-page paper to ICASSP and later on an invitation to write a journal paper for the IEEE open journal of signal processing.

@finity thanks for the tip. I got a server running yesterday. It looks like I can bring it down to a $15/month plan. Still 3x more than a $5 VPS but GCP has so many monitoring/logging features.

I wonder how $5 VPS services make any margin on electricity?

Installing my own Mastodon server. On Google Cloud GCP it's looking like it'll be at least US $25 a month. Looking for a way to make local accounts invite-only.

@fortninety agree. Mastodon apps suck, there are too many of them, the server you make a profile on has different features than others, the hoi polloi don't care about federation. I tried to make a server last weekend and it would cost $30 a month "to respect my freedoms".

But we're here and a bunch of professional hacker types are too so it can't be that bad! Need to find more art things.

Today on Risky Biz:

* Tom Uren and @thegrugq talk about why EU plan to regulate 0day won't do much on Spyware. That podcast up imminently in Risky Business News RSS feed (site currently building)

* News bulletin podcast and newsletter out at 2:30pm AEST
- Some Cyber Partisans action
- Vanuatu government ransomware update
- Russia moves towards cybercrime proceeds forfeiture laws (lol corruption gonna be amazing)
- Free Wickr app gets the Amazon razor
- More

* A long form interview I did with head of developer relations from Snyk: How can CSOs help foster a good secure dev culture within dev org? Still working on that one but will be out later today in the primary RSS feed.

Looks like I'll be spending a bit more time on Mastadon now because this is clearly where the action is. :)

@shuttersparks space-track.org might have raw data. There are some YouTube channels that are more entertainment but have a few realtime metrics.

Google compute engine is pretty cool. Took me long enough to get there. The Kubernetes one looks interesting too.

Should I set up a Mastodon server of my own? Haven't operated a fediverse thing since I took the diaspora node down in 2015. So much has changed!

Hi I'm a software engineer working at an American space company called Momentus.
