fun fact, we use these (ring laser gyros) to keep airplanes perfectly level. they’re solid state (aesthetically pleasing) and have a drift of 1/100th of a degree per hour. they’re the most reliable and precise component out there for inertial navigation.
they work by splitting a beam of light in opposite directions, when they meet again their coherent waves interfere and recombine, and the change in phase reflects the change in angular velocity
and really, they just look so cool.

We’ve just open-sourced JOSH, our method for 4D human–scene reconstruction in the wild.
Huge credit to the first author, my PhD student Zhizheng, who will present this work at @iclr_conf in Brazil next month 🇧🇷

A trivia is that this work was finished more than one year ago, and has been rejected twice...Be resilient!
Here is a TEASER of what to expect next week!
We cannot wait to share the epic Jetson video where we fly along the breathtaking California coast and try eVTOL-surfing the waves.
Stay tuned for a full video release next Thursday!
With the Jetson ONE already in production we are realizing the dream of flying cars - Jetson’s mission since 2017.
Announcing the Solo Founders Podcast.
Conversations with founders building the most ambitious companies without co-founders.
First episode drops tomorrow.
Introducing ShapeR, a method for robust conditional 3D shape generation from casually captured sequences.
ShapeR leverages a rectified flow transformer conditioned on per-object multimodal data to turn casual image sequences into full metric scene reconstructions.

Exclusive: Obtained Starlink terminal debug data from Iran during the ongoing internet shutdown.
The telemetry shows direct evidence of GPS spoofing: the dish detected 18 GPS satellites with valid signal lock, but activated its anti-spoofing countermeasures (inhibitGps: true). This isn't simple jamming; the government appears to be broadcasting fake GPS signals to confuse terminals.
The impact: 20%+ sustained packet loss, connection never stabilized after 24 minutes, bandwidth restricted, and beam pointing ~1° off target. Starlink stayed online but was barely usable.
The anti-spoofing detection works, but SpaceX's fallback positioning can't currently maintain normal performance under electronic warfare.
First documented technical evidence of state-level GPS spoofing against consumer satellite internet.

This is one of the most profound books that I read in my younger days. I was in form two, uninitiated in the ways of the world. I never really got the full gist of it then. I revisited it later while in 2nd year at UoN. The clarity was astonishing... I can still visualise the roaches dancing on that ceiling two decades later. Meja Mwangi, you were a master story teller. Travel well. 🙏🏾
Celebrated Kenyan writer and filmmaker Meja Mwangi, born David Dominic Mwangi, has passed on in Malindi on the morning of Thursday, December 11, 2025 aged 78.
May his legacy endure in his great creative works.
Verily, from The Almighty God we all come and return.
