以前は未来の宇宙を舞台にしている小説や映画で銀河帝国なんていうものが出てくると、高度に発達した人類社会が個人の能力に依存ししすぎる国家の仕組みを採用するわけないだろうと思っていたけれど、この頃はあるかもねと思うようになった。

Flippin' 'eck, Tucker! @losttourist@social.chatty.monster

I got a e-ink display wotsit thingy (apologies for getting all technical there) not long ago, and now I'm getting round to setting it up.

One of the nice things is that as well as all the dashboards provided by the company, there are a load provided by the community that you can just load up, customise & use.

But I was shocked -- SHOCKED I tell you -- to discover that so far nobody has created a "When Is Bins?" dashboard.

I think I have found my latest project!

A device that consists of a white frame with a monochrome e-ink screen in the middle. Currently the screen is showing a weather forecast for the next few hours, indicating that it will be what we Brits like to call "bloody chilly" for the rest of the day.

같은 역할을 하는 완전기계식 체계랑 전자제어식 체계가 있을 때, 더 많은 변수와 다양한 작동환경에 대응할 수 있는 쪽은 전자제어식 체계입니다. 완전기계식 체계는 융통성이 없어요.

Texas Instruments Explain Low-Dropout Linear Voltage Regulators

An LDO schematic and some notes about their features

Texas Instruments Explain Low-Dropout Linear Voltage Regulators

Today in power electronics, the folks over at Texas Instruments have put together a video covering low-dropout (LDO) linear regulators. For a hacker, power is pretty fundamental, so it behooves us …

So there's a instance for people that are into called mathstodon… and that instance allows users to use .

The is amazing on so many levels.
Ah, and also you might read about problem 728 which was kinda solved with the help of : 😉

mathstodon.xyz/@tao/1158558402

Terence Tao (@tao@mathstodon.xyz)

Recently, the application of AI tools to Erdos problems passed a milestone: an Erdos problem (#728 https://www.erdosproblems.com/728) was solved more or less autonomously by AI (after some feedback from an initial attempt), in the spirit of the problem (as reconstructed by the Erdos problem website community), with the result (to the best of our knowledge) not replicated in existing literature (although similar results proven by similar methods were located). This is a demonstration of the genuine increase in capability of these tools in recent months, and is largely consistent with other recent demonstrations of AI using existing methods to resolve Erdos problems, although in most previous cases a solution to these problems was later located in the literature, as discussed in https://mathstodon.xyz/deck/@tao/115788262274999408 . This particular case was unusual in that the problem as stated by Erdos was misformulated, with a reconstruction of the problem in the intended spirit only obtained in the last few months, which helps explain the lack of prior literature on the problem. However, I would like to talk here about another aspect of the story which I find more interesting than the solution itself, which is the emerging AI-powered capability to rapidly write and rewrite expositions of the solution.

URGENT: If you're Irish read this. Please spread the word

"The government now wants to make it super expensive (>€100,000) for ordinary people to go to court to protect the environment.
The Government is currently engaged in an extremely short consultation on proposed rules to cap legal costs when you go to court and hold the state to account for breaking environmental law.
If you think this is wrong, make your views known by emailing

I am very much a non-expert, but to my amazement, I have been able to get up and running with a smartphone running an open-source, non-evil OS, and can actually do almost everything I had used my iPhone for. It is possible! But the most important thing to know is that, unlike an OS for computers, an OS for a smartphone has to be surprisingly device-specific. I had to track down a 9-year-old Google Pixel 3a XL in order to run the OS I wanted. It's doable! If I could do it, you can do it!

Fediblock: fasterthanlime @hachyderm.io CW: harrassment

We're suspending the user fasterthanlime @ hachyderm.io for harassment of a Puerto Rican FOSS contributor and being a sloperator (someone who ruins the environment and code quality using ai).

The FOSS contributor, that fasterthanlime harassed, created an open source list of software projects infected with ai slop, and was harassed into leaving the FOSS community by people such as fasterthanlime who love LLMs more than they love BIPOC fems in this community.

What they did was shameful. They have tens of thousands of followers on fedi and thousands on GitHub. They knew what they were doing.

Fasterthanlime even went and removed all references to Kat's associated projects, such as KDL, and kept publicly shaming her. This is highly inappropriate and unprofessional.

LLM defenders are not allowed on this instance, especially if they harass Puerto Rican comrades out of the FOSS community. This is awful.

Anyone coming to defend LLMs or LLM users in the comments will be suspended.

Screenshot of @fasterthanlime@hachyderm.io on mastodon, who goes by amos, saying "mom mom I'm pominent" and linking to the codeberg.org gen-ai-transparency/open-slopware repo, where they were featured for having used ai in their project. At the time of screenshot, the post had 9 boosts and 26 likes with many replies, but only 1 quote.Screenshot of fasterthanlime changing 270 files in their facet-rs/facet repo via a PR 4 hours ago. Their repo has 2.3k stars, and 98 forks. The PR is #1730 and in this screenshot is open to a file called .claude/README.md in which they have removed support for kdl. Claude is a popular LLM for generating slop.

Open question: how do tech folks keep track of interesting events and conferences you might want to attend. Back in Web 2.0, Upcoming was great for this. I know @andybaio resurrected it several years ago, but not sure if it’s currently maintained (it seems to only have a Twitter login option, for example). Is there an Upcoming for the fediverse? Or somewhere else to see what events e.g. @andypiper is going to this year? I.e. a social events app that isn’t Twitter-based (Bluesky would be ok tho).
