@beaufils@mastodon.social @swheritage @internetarchive You missed trans rights, asshole.
@oreolek lol we're coming up on the 1 year anniversary of them not getting around to opt-out requests
To the best of our knowledge, all files contained in the dataset are licensed with one of the permissive licenses (see list in Licensing information) or no license.
Emphasis mine.
What the cinnamon toast fuck?
@ryanc @swheritage Also, no language model is capable of obeying an attribution clause, which is in almost every license.
@ryanc @swheritage I'm already seeing in their list of opt-out GitHub issues that they've included some people's code that is "all rights reserved", and some people's GPL code.
@swheritage To find out if they have appropriated your code, you can check "Am I in The Stack?": https://huggingface.co/datasets/bigcode/the-stack-v2
However, _do not believe their supposed opt-out_. I mean, sure, submit an opt-out if you want, but I know how they operate -- they'll just keep doing whatever they want and never process any takedowns unless the law makes them.
Hey, in case their transphobia wasn't enough for you, @swheritage is yoinking all the code on GitHub -- regardless of license -- to train a generative AI that plagiarizes code.
No matter how many times they say "ethical", it isn't.
Part 2 of my attempt to get the Software Heritage Archive to stop deadnaming me: the part where I get angry in French.

@TerrorBite exactly that. What they have is 100 trivial forks of the old copy from other people’s github accounts
@ryanc @endrift @antlers @swheritage oh actually I ended up reading the UK’s version of the GDPR and it sounds _powerful_
@ryanc @endrift @antlers @swheritage and yeah they now have my birthdate and birthplace and a scan of my ID, all for nothing it seems
@ryanc @endrift @antlers @swheritage good luck! They have never replied to my takedown notice but I bet if you’re in the EU you’ll have a better shot
@Gadora I'm not intending to be a power user either. The design of Mastodon makes me tired. But I do need to be able to follow people
So I'll check out kind.social, thanks for the recommendation
@antlers @swheritage If the goal is to engineer a complex solution that meets all of SWH's goals while respecting trans people, it turns out it's even more complex than this. I haven't gotten there in the story yet
But it would require them to work with trans people to develop the solution, which they won't.
More relevantly, by now, they also won't consider easier solutions that work against their goals, such as taking down their archive of ftfy.
The Software Heritage Archive (@swheritage) wants to deadname me forever.
Part 1 of 3-ish.

@nexvie I was recognizing that the scale being described is the blues scale
@hikari oh I think I know some people who have been using these updates. was there a release candidate that went out maybe a century ago?
@piegames I don’t want to be defined by tech
I like games that you can play again and they're different the next time: such as randomizers, roguelikes, and gender expression! Twitch stream: https://twitch.tv/arborelia
