Looking for a flat in ? We're moving houses and subletting our flat in Neukölln for 6 months before the next tenants can move in.

It's a 87m2 flat at the fifth floor in a back house of Sonnenallee, bright and very quiet even with open windows. It has a huge kitchen/living room, 2 bedrooms and a balcony. We could leave some minimal furniture like couches, a big futon bed, etc. Move in from the 15.03 or 01.04.

Please share if you know some people who might be interested. PM me for more details.

A picture from my living room. 2 couches, shelves with books, wooden floor, a balcony covered in snow.

If you're a swiss resident ( or know one ... ) you can get a custom hardware design onto an ASIC for FREE !!!

You get back one chip with your design (and a bunch of others!) and some board to help bring up/testing.

Also, this is "resident", no need to be a student or at uni or anything, you just need a valid Swiss address ...

I know I might be repeating myself here because I mentioned it a few month back but this bear repeating IMHO.

PS: Can I haz boost for reach ?

I forget who relatively recently was looking for an iOS client capable of working with : via @elenaElena Rossini on GoToSocial ⁂ I read about @mastoblasterMastoBlaster - Official Account which says of itself:

Built for snac, by design
Many apps support snac as a side effect. MastoBlaster makes it primary and follows snac’s Mastodon API support closely for predictable, polished behavior.

Large Language Model Reasoning Failures

Large Language Models (LLMs) have exhibited remarkable reasoning capabilities, achieving impressive results across a wide range of tasks. Despite these advances, significant reasoning failures persist, occurring even in seemingly simple scenarios. To systematically understand and address these shortcomings, we present the first comprehensive survey dedicated to reasoning failures in LLMs. We introduce a novel categorization framework that distinguishes reasoning into embodied and non-embodied types, with the latter further subdivided into informal (intuitive) and formal (logical) reasoning. In parallel, we classify reasoning failures along a complementary axis into three types: fundamental failures intrinsic to LLM architectures that broadly affect downstream tasks; application-specific limitations that manifest in particular domains; and robustness issues characterized by inconsistent performance across minor variations. For each reasoning failure, we provide a clear definition, analyze existing studies, explore root causes, and present mitigation strategies. By unifying fragmented research efforts, our survey provides a structured perspective on systemic weaknesses in LLM reasoning, offering valuable insights and guiding future research towards building stronger, more reliable, and robust reasoning capabilities. We additionally release a comprehensive collection of research works on LLM reasoning failures, as a GitHub repository at https://github.com/Peiyang-Song/Awesome-LLM-Reasoning-Failures, to provide an easy entry point to this area.

M2F: Automated Formalization of Mathematical Literature at Scale

Automated formalization of mathematics enables mechanical verification but remains limited to isolated theorems and short snippets. Scaling to textbooks and research papers is largely unaddressed, as it requires managing cross-file dependencies, resolving imports, and ensuring that entire projects compile end-to-end. We present M2F (Math-to-Formal), the first agentic framework for end-to-end, project-scale autoformalization in Lean. The framework operates in two stages. The statement compilation stage splits the document into atomic blocks, orders them via inferred dependencies, and repairs declaration skeletons until the project compiles, allowing placeholders in proofs. The proof repair stage closes these holes under fixed signatures using goal-conditioned local edits. Throughout both stages, M2F keeps the verifier in the loop, committing edits only when toolchain feedback confirms improvement. In approximately three weeks, M2F converts long-form mathematical sources into a project-scale Lean library of 153,853 lines from 479 pages textbooks on real analysis and convex analysis, fully formalized as Lean declarations with accompanying proofs. This represents textbook-scale formalization at a pace that would typically require months or years of expert effort. On FATE-H, we achieve $96\%$ proof success (vs.\ $80\%$ for a strong baseline). Together, these results demonstrate that practical, large-scale automated formalization of mathematical literature is within reach. The full generated Lean code from our runs is available at https://github.com/optsuite/ReasBook.git.

@stefano@bsd.cafeStefano Marinelli, BSD Cafe barista, developer extraordinaire and even better human being, has started working on an iOS Mastodon API / Fediverse app named .

The difference from other Mastodon API clients is that this one has as a first class citizen.

I'm so glad!

The first time you click a Fediverse button on my site, you’ll be asked to enter your home instance — in other words, your own Fediverse server. This can be a self-hosted instance or a platform like Mastodon, Pleroma, and others.

Once that’s set, clicking on an “Also on” syndicated post link will open the corresponding URL directly inside your own Mastodon instance. From there, you’ll see it as a native Mastodon post, which means you can reply, boost, or favourite it just like any other post in your timeline.

The same logic applies to the “Fediverse” sidebar widget. It reads the instance you previously saved in your browser’s localStorage and uses it to trigger a remote follow request directly from your own Mastodon account.
