Ever notice how software bugs are like relatives? They show up unannounced, take up all your time, and the small ones are often the hardest to deal with.

I've been remiss in posting ManT1S updates to social media lately. 😬 Here's a #campaign update from about a month ago about the available #power connections: crowdsupply.com/silicognition/…

@matlachaine Thanks, that looks useful! But I also have bottom pads, is there a way to use these combined with bottom connections?

@xorbit1 I've followed this incredible project, I love it. Thank you for your work! I've read the last update in which you talk about the bed of nails. With the castellated edges you have, here is a better, quicker way than pogo pins: tag-connect.com/info/what-is-e…

The campaign may be over but you can still pre-order a ManT1S! And I finally found time 😅 to start to document how to power a ManT1S and the T1S mixing segment in Power considerations Part One: Voltage #iot #network #power crowdsupply.com/silicognition/…

On LEO Express 2, Mira recently completed the longest on-orbit burn in program history at 223 seconds. We performed the maneuver to adjust orbital parameters in preparation for future capability demonstrations. Inclination changes require big delta-v. They allow us to shift planes, set up new geometries, and expand what this vehicle can support on orbit. Lining up what comes next.

@LayoffAI As if computer programming, customer service, medical marketing and sales weren't bad enough already, let's make them ever worse! 🤣

Anthropic just published which jobs AI is actually replacing right now. Not theory. Real world data. Programmers. Customer service. Data entry. Marketing. Sales. Finance. And the scary part? They say AI is only at 33% of its theoretical capability.

Europe does not innovate at all! 🇪🇺 Such statements have been appearing recently. Lately, we have been known for the fact that it is difficult to drink from our plastic bottles because of the regulated caps. Fortunately, this is not true. Spoiler: I now have a great strategy how to drink EU-capped bottles! Reach out if you have any problems! 🍼 Just look at the European startup ecosystem and the momentum that accompanies it. Btw. thanks for pushing this @andreasklinger (@euinc_petition) and @HarryStebbings (@ProjectEurope_) and all the contributors of this initiatives. And today I wanted to show you a robotics company that is creating real innovation right in the heart of beautiful Bavaria! 🥨 That's Filics! Founded in 2019 by engineers from the Technical University of Munich. They are developing a unique robot pairing that autonomously lifts and moves pallets using minimal floor space. Each of their units can carry up to 1.2 tons and maneuver with the speed of 1.2 m/s. The system's autonomous mobility allows it to drive completely underneath and through pallets placed on the floor, without requiring turning space, making it a standout solution for high-density warehouses. Future plans include adapting the technology for autonomous truck loading in under five minutes. Last year they have secured €13.5 million in fresh funding to scale its operations. 💰 There's more companies in Europe like this. I hope to put more of them in the spotlight this year, so they get the credits they deserve! 🦾 ~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news → ziegler.substack.com

Great video! Keeping it real around doomers funding content about AI capabilities. @InternetOfBugs youtu.be/b9o0eFvqOOU?si…

@svpino Then why use this junk? Computers are supposed to be deterministic, if they are, they can save you time. If they're not, they just waste your time and no this will not get better, it's central to this grifter technology. So get off the hamster wheel the billionaires put you on.

People are lying to you. These agents don't work as they promised.

@aallan Never seen a worse cliff everyone is excited to dive off of.

First signal for the end of what I’ve always called “the platform problem” for #AI. It’s not about the platform anymore, it’s about actions. It’s about AI acting, not chatting. venturebeat.com/technology/ope…

@bml_khubbard An imprecise way to specify something will never be as good as a precise way. Plus it's a good idea to preserve your own knowledge so you're not helpless in a couple of years when the bubble bursts and AI either goes away or you will have to pay the unsubsidized price.

I never learned to use the slide ruler my Dad gave me. It hangs on my wall, right next to my college HP32S. I'm sure it's an amazing tool, I just don't know how to use it. I'm having the same relationship with RegEx now. AI knows RegEx, and well, that's all I need going forward.

@bml_khubbard @omgsidewalks This is definitely the American way to do measurement units. 🤣

@omgsidewalks My folks had 7 acres of Apples. An acre is 1/7th of their orchard. I can picture it to this day.

I will be honest with you guys I have no idea how big an acre is

@yatharthmaan @elonmusk It's funny you still think any of this is actually going to happen because he opened his mouth and said words. 🤣

It's funny that these retards think @elonmusk had a sudden eureka moment where he decided to abandon Mars for the Moon. In reality, SpaceX has prioritized the Moon in the short term to learn how to build a base on another planetary body, since it’s closer to Earth and enables economic opportunities that support the long-term goal of Mars.

@glenbeer @fnirsi What is it? I can't see a brand.

My new favorite soldering iron. Heat transfer is amazing. @fnirsi #Electronics

The next challenge in space is on-orbit mobility. When spacecraft can maneuver precisely, reliably, and responsively, everything accelerates: stations, satellites, logistics, exploration, and the orbital economy at large. We’re excited to provide the propulsion system for @vast's Haven Demo and Haven-1. Building the enabling infrastructure that lets others unlock their missions is how we move toward a real Space Age. #MobilizeSpace
