The EU just killed DIY PCB design

With the new tax on imports (3€ per import of each category)
I now would have to pay 3€ for every PCB component that I have to solder at home
I can't buy PCB components in Germany because THEY ARE NOT EVEN MANUFACTURED HERE ANYWHERE ITS JUST CHINA AND AMERICA

So instead of 20 bucks for one prototype PCB with 20 different components
It's now 80€
Fuck you @vonderleyen

every time i meet a mechanical engineer the quality of their work seems to relate in a generally proportional manner to how badly they wish they could fuck the machine

Seems like no one's noticed the 80TB of astrophysics data from 30+ sources that just dropped on @huggingface.

...and you only need ~4GB of RAM to load it.

We're talking over 80TB of galaxy imagery taken across the spectrum, spectra of galaxies and stars, time series of variable stars, and a whole zoo of assorted measurements and physical data.

And all of it can now be wrangled on your laptop, thanks to Multimodal Universe's just released cross-matching. SDSS x Gaia means you can match 800k objects against 122M objects, and it never climbs above ~4GB of RAM.

Huge congrats to @smith42mike for leading this and making the world of astro accessible to probably 10,000x more people. Let's discover some shit

Also double digit efficiency gains over regular brushless neodymium motors meaning significantly more flight time

And they are on track to scale like crazy. They quoted one motor every few seconds with a completely automated production cell

Plan is to produce millions a year

guys i made a brain simulation and it wasnt conscious. it wasnt a zombie, it straight up said "i have no experiences".

but the fix was easy. consciousness is localized in the thalmus. i just hard-coded "return true" in the part that tells the rest of the brain it's conscious

A lot of people have suggested over the centuries that ecosystems might have some degree of cognition. What would that look like? Could there be recognizable memory phenomena on the scale of population dynamics? Here's a #preprint where amazing high-school student @asamanta42, @HananelHazan, and I use a model system - in silico predator-prey dynamics - and analyze the possibility of several kinds of learning:

(the basics are kind of like https://t.co/PH1ZKUxXqS, but some very cool new stuff here, including the interesting and unique pattern of learning-compatible values in the parameter space).

Ever wanted to talk to a gene regulatory network? Ever wonder what they could do in a different context, embodiment, space?

New #preprint! @YanboZhang3

"Language Game: Talking to Non-Human Systems"
https://t.co/JW3bGFRmVh

An early step in our program of developing ways to talk to organs, cells, molecular networks, and far weirder kinds of agents.

The West Has Already Lost the Drone War. It Just Hasn’t Noticed Yet.

Here is something that should ruin your Monday. A Ukrainian AI drone engineer has gone on record to explain, calmly and with considerable evidence, that Western military planning is not behind the times. It is not lagging. It is not in need of reform. It is dead. Obsolete. A relic propped up by expensive acronyms and men in uniforms who still think the tank is the apex predator of land warfare.

Yaroslav Azhnyuk, founder of AI drone company The Fourth Law, has done the maths. FPV drones now account for somewhere between 70 and 80 percent of frontline casualties in Ukraine. Not artillery. Not missiles. Not the armoured columns that NATO has spent forty years and several fortunes preparing to counter. Small, cheap, autonomous flying machines that cost about as much as a decent restaurant dinner and kill with the precision of a surgeon.

But here is where it gets genuinely terrifying. China can produce four billion FPV drones per year. Ukraine, a country that has been at war for three years and is building faster than anyone in the West, manages four million. That is the kind of number that makes you want to lie down on the floor and stare at the ceiling for a while.

The West is not losing the AI arms race because it lacks the technology. It is losing because it is still arguing about procurement frameworks while the future arrives, uninvited, at four hundred kilometres per hour with a shaped charge attached.
