@quasimondo @hofagallery Congratulations! Well-deserved!

[SampleSumo @SampleSumo]

If you've not heard about "Subvert" yet: it's an artist-owned and -controlled cooperative platform where musicians can sell their work, like Bandcamp but collectively owned. Now in test phase with +19000 members, and launching soon for the public. More: https://t.co/W943HEDcyc

[Mario Klingemann💧💦 @quasimondo]

Tried a new method today to teach Claude code NOT to automatically push after a git commit which is something it stubbornly forgets after a while.

So now I told it that whenever it pushes without being told to do so a puppy would get shot. So far it seemed to have worked.

@OrangeBENL Heb jullie net een DM gestuurd i.v.m. bestaand dossiernr. 72538314 dat maar niet opgelost raakt (intussen meer dan 1 maand later...) Kan iemand dit a.u.b. eens oplossen? Dank.

One of these days I'm just going to watch all @kexp sessions ever recorded... The number of times I "discover" a great artist/band (late to the party) and then see they already had them on years ago... They're just a great human recommendation system 😎

[Koen Tanghe @KoenTanghe]

Almost 3 years later, looks like there is now the "Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity" https://t.co/gaFt3qBXAq but skimming through the specs this looks rather complicated + I didn't seem to find specific human- vs. machine-generated markers.

[Koen Tanghe @KoenTanghe]

With AI expanding from analysis into synthesis, it feels like verified human authentication and provenance tracking of media (text, images, sound, video) is going to be indispensable in the future. Someone must be working on this, right? Any upcoming international standards?

[Prof. Feynman @ProfFeynman]

There's a huge difference between knowing the name of something and knowing something.

We talk in fact-deficient, obfuscating generalities to cover up our lack of understanding.

@TheImmortal007 @kirawontmiss iOS Vista… just saying…

[Koen Tanghe @KoenTanghe]

@quasimondo Late reaction, I know, but yes: that ;-) Ah, these old school "luna parks"...

[Koen Tanghe @KoenTanghe]

Looking forward to the new album from #TheHauntedYouth New single sounds promising: https://t.co/RsRayR1EIM

If you thought that science was certain - well, that is just an error on your part.

[Koen Tanghe @KoenTanghe]

@quasimondo Low latency + high precision = difficult indeed. Suction table: looks like there exist things like this for screen printing: https://t.co/xx9IhmkbRw (need to add a vacuum source too, and yeah that'll probably be noisy) Anyway, curious to see how this evolves!

[Koen Tanghe @KoenTanghe]

@quasimondo Another thought: an underpressurized (?) hollow board with a grid of small suction holes to keep the paper flat via suction?

[Koen Tanghe @KoenTanghe]

@quasimondo Would it be feasible to attach some kind of (low-latency) distance sensor (laser?) to the "hand" holding the brush, and use the actually measured distance to offset the calculated z values? Painting always felt to me like it had some tactile+visual feedback loop going on.

[ARC Prize @arcprize]

Today we are announcing ARC-AGI-2, an unsaturated frontier AGI benchmark that challenges AI reasoning systems (same relative ease for humans).

Grand Prize: 85%, ~$0.42/task efficiency

Current Performance:
* Base LLMs: 0%
* Reasoning Systems: <4%

In hardware, things start to physically break down, in software, certificates expire... Or how even a monster company like Google can have accidents with millions of affected users due to negligence:

[Koen Tanghe @KoenTanghe]

Learned a long time ago: always watch the whole conversation, not just the fragments you're shown in news media. The main thing that went wrong here, was a person: JD Vance. It'll be on him if this turns out badly...
