Forget lidar.
One single camera.
Runs in real time & is open source:
A streaming 3D model that reconstructs scenes live, at ~20 FPS, over long sequences.
End-to-end.
Optimization tricks, cleanup steps?
Nope.
And it beats both streaming and even some offline methods.
Perception is becoming software-first.
Closer to machines that see and understand the world as it unfolds.

این بیشرف اسمش ونوس هست و کنار ما نشسته توی استادیوم و رفت به مامورا خبر داد که پرچم شیر و خورشید رو بیان بگیرن. بعدشم وقتی بهش میگی چرا این کارو کردی با اون نیشخند وقیحش داره پرچم تروریستها رو تکون میده. البته ایشون رسوای دو عالم هستن. #جاویدشاه@MattTheRat_#مزدوریاب
The people of Iran are not dying in the streets for a "nuclear deal" or less ballistic missiles!
They are fighting—and dying— for freedom.
Not everything can be achieved through "diplomacy". When will the EU figure this out?
Most multi-drone systems struggle with one thing: coordination under real-world constraints.
A new paper in Science Robotics from TU Delft proposes a model-based approach that lets multiple quadrotors jointly move and orient a cable-suspended load.
BUT: without relying on learning or external sensors on the payload.
Key results reported:
✅ More than 8× acceleration of the load compared to previous state-of-the-art methods
✅ Full obstacle avoidance while maintaining internal collision safety
✅ Robust performance even when the load’s inertia model is uncertain
✅ No sensors needed on the load itself
Instead of data-driven models, they use a centralized trajectory optimizer that resamples past trajectories for smooth updates and stability.
Each drone then executes its reference locally using onboard INDI control.
It’s a reminder that not all progress in robotics comes from scaling models… some of it still comes from getting the physics and coordination right.

I’m turning 41, but I don’t feel like celebrating.
Our generation is running out of time to save the free Internet built for us by our fathers.
What was once the promise of the free exchange of information is being turned into the ultimate tool of control.
Once-free countries are introducing dystopian measures such as digital IDs (UK), online age checks (Australia), and mass scanning of private messages (EU).
Germany is persecuting anyone who dares to criticize officials on the Internet. The UK is imprisoning thousands for their tweets. France is criminally investigating tech leaders who defend freedom and privacy.
A dark, dystopian world is approaching fast — while we’re asleep. Our generation risks going down in history as the last one that had freedoms — and allowed them to be taken away.
We’ve been fed a lie.
We’ve been made to believe that the greatest fight of our generation is to destroy everything our forefathers left us: tradition, privacy, sovereignty, the free market, and free speech.
By betraying the legacy of our ancestors, we’ve set ourselves on a path toward self-destruction — moral, intellectual, economic, and ultimately biological.
So no, I’m not going to celebrate today. I’m running out of time. WE are running out of time.
Open Source isn't going to help.
There's a way to invisibly compromise all software.
A perfect, self-replicating "sin" passed down for generations of compilers.
It's not just theoretical, and Ken Thompson showed us how.
What happens if we can't make another CPU...ever?
How long would datacenters last? Does the Internet start to fracture?
Of course, it's a hypothetical thought experiment. But it's interesting to think about:
When everyone is debating how X framework is better than Y language, remember what Why the Lucky Stiff taught us:
> when you don't create things, you become defined by your tastes rather than ability. your tastes only narrow & exclude people. so create.
How should you type React Props?
You've got three options. type, interface or an inline object literal.
Inline object literals might be fast to write, but it means you can't extract the type out for use elsewhere in your codebase:
This makes them hard to recommend.
So, interface vs type again. As I've said before, I prefer type.
But let's say you're building an input that needs to take all the props of 'input', but with an extra label.
For those cases, you must use interfaces:
Using an intersection here will slow down TypeScript on the scale of a large codebase. interface extends is the way to go.
This means that it's a good idea to get into the habit of using interfaces for each prop declaration.
I recommend using a code snippet to declare the interface for you:
All the speed of an object literal, but all the reusability and TS performance of an interface.

TIL the standard Kafka command for doing a health check is issuing the byte sequence "ruok" to the main service. like... "r u okay?"
then it goes "imok" lmaoooooooo
My love.
Till we see each other again, I know you are here with me. I hear your voice.
Our son will know you and I am convinced he will be a mini you.
I am grateful we have so many friends all over the world who will teach our son how to hack and more importantly who the real Kevin Mitnick was.
Our little one …our legacy.
We've lost a true pioneer of the digital world, Kevin Mitnick. His ingenuity challenged systems, incited dialogues, and pushed boundaries in cybersecurity. He will remain a testament to the uncharted power of curiosity. #RIPKevinMitnick
