I don’t know if this is the right place for that, but my team at Apple is looking to hire several vulnerability researchers: https://jobs.apple.com/en-us/details/200423067/swe-vulnerability-researcher-sear. The role is based in Paris but fully remote positions will be considered on an individual case basis. We also have another job opening for microarchitecture experts: https://jobs.apple.com/en-us/details/200429738/swe-microarchitecture-security-researcher-sear. Don’t hesitate to spread the word if you know someone who could be interested!

FYI, my mastodon world is feeling a bit too... linux-y? in terms of demographics, so I'm trying to boost #introduction posts of women/BIPOC/LGBT tooters I've found so far. Feel free to mute me for today if it gets annoying, but please reach out if you want to connect!

Since I've been in Israel I have really wanted to visit the regions considered Palestine still (west bank, that sort of stuff). I have strong political opinions about it all but feel i really need to see both sides first hand and interact to really have a right to feel strongly about it.

Anyway one of the Palestinian workers I hired heard about this and invited to take me and show me around. I cant tell you all how excited I am to get to do that soon.

Dear Twitter ex-pats. When we all flounced out of Twitter loudly proclaiming we were going to Mastodon this sent a message to trolls, nazis that they could set up servers & come here.

If anyone gets harrassed with hatespeech pls note that that is not the culture of Mastodon. Please report & block those users. If you notice a pattern from the same weird domain, block that domain, write a post of the server name w/ a hashtag fediblock so your server admin can follow up & block it for everyone.

What if a simple drug could make everyone less selfish?

Pessimists' take: what if a simple drug could make everyone even more selfish?

"A team of researchers from the Italian Institute of Technology recently published a ground-breaking study wherein they identified the brain neurons associated with prosocial and selfish behavior in mice. And then they figured out how to turn those neurons on and off."

I joined Mastodon a bit over four years ago. Many of my generation seem to fear that Mastodon will become like Twitter with all the new people. I do not.

The idea seems to be that Mastodon is so nice because its people are nice. I believe most people are nice. Twitter has been set up in a way to make us into monsters and to make the worst monsters look like average folks.

The design choices of Mastodon do the reverse. We will become a bit more like Twitter, but mostly stay Mastodon by design.

New tutorial for #Blender3d!
How to properly create UVs for #geometrynodes based pipes and cables.
Node tree is included!
This is a must-watch for anyone creating similar assets as it seems common that fully functional UVs are often overlooked or not deemed important.
Big thanks to @3DBystedt for the leading hint to solve this.

In this episode we muse about the role of the military in a world without war. What comes next for these highly trained individuals and groups? How might they turn those skills toward new types of community service?

What role does online communication play for the protesters? How are Iranian activists manoeuvring the digital space and its limitations? Which implications do sanctions have for the activists in Iran? What is the responsibility of international tech companies in providing secured communication channels?

Hi All,

I haven't been here for a long time, since migrating to my own personal instance, but wanted to poke my head in since the migration and see what's going on:)

Oh, I've apparently been working at PCMag for 10 years this week.

Huh. Well. Hmm.

I'm teaching a workshop for PhD students next week about using social media to for #scicomm. I'm going to add a slide on Mastodon - what advice would you offer for early-career scientists sharing their work on here? What do you think are the pros and cons of using Mastodon for science communication?
