The IoT market could reach 39B connected devices by 2030. But the next wave isn’t about smart homes. It’s about: 🏭 Industrial assets 🚢 Global logistics ⚡ Infrastructure monitoring 🌍 Environmental data Satellite IoT will be key. Read the outlook 👇 eu1.hubs.ly/H0sPJlB0 #IoT #SpaceTech

SpaceX's value and competitive advantage comes from lowering its own launch *costs* and taking advantage of that for its own payloads while keeping launch *prices* to others much higher...

Interesting piece on D2D from GSMA. Gets the physics and capacity limitations right, but doesn't resolve the inherent contradiction between the lack of indoor coverage and what that means for actual end user demand in rural unserved areas gsma.com/connectivity-f…

🚀 From ambition to reality one year later. A year ago, Kinéis completed the deployment of its 25-satellite constellation, marking a decisive step toward truly global IoT connectivity. 5 launches. 25 satellites. One powerful network designed to connect, monitor, and optimize operations anywhere on Earth. Since then, this infrastructure has been transforming how industries operate: enabling smarter decisions, improving efficiency, and expanding possibilities in even the most remote environments. 🔗 Explore the full journey: eu1.hubs.ly/H0sMbML0 At Kinéis, we don’t just launch satellites we create impact. #Kineis #SpaceTech #IoT #DigitalTransformation #Connectivity #NewSpace #Innovation

AT&T has made an unfortunate habit of backing the wrong horse whenever it gets involved in the satellite business (viz TerreStar, DirecTV, OneWeb, AST)...

Here is a sharing of career & survival resources that really helped me navigate the research career in #NLProc and #AI: github.com/zhijing-jin/nl… Huge thanks to the researchers & profs who wrote such thoughtful guides for our community 🙏 PRs are very welcome to keep it growing🌱

If you've lost track of startups coming out of UC Berkeley Sky Lab raising in the last 3 weeks: SGLang (RadixArk) raised at 400m valuation VLLM (Inferact) at 150m at 800m valuation LMArena raised 150m at 1.7B valuation. Not too bad for impact in January 2026.

1/ ANNOUNCING 🎬 MARYAM: The Mirror and the Map, a feature film about Fields Medalist Maryam Mirzakhani (the first woman to win the Fields Medal). After The Man Who Knew Infinity, writer/director Matt Brown, Manjul Bhargava & I are reuniting as associate producers.

🌟NEW PAPER🌟 Do you know that changing a visual marker from red to blue can completely reorder VLM leaderboards? In our most recent work, we explore the fragility of visually prompted benchmarks. lisadunlap.github.io/vpbench/

@talzuss @linuxplumbers Nice work! Congrats!!🎉 On top of your kernel-level eviction work, our CacheCatalyst (to appear at nsdi) can be applied at the application layer to eliminate browser cache re-validation RTTs. Together they'd optimize caching end-to-end. Happy to chat if you see potential synergy.

Had a great time presenting cache_ext at @linuxplumbers last week. Lots of productive conversations on next steps for getting it merged upstream. Exciting times ahead for BPF in Linux memory management!

We had a fantastic session with Dr. Diyi Yang (@Diyi_Yang) from @StanfordNLP @StanfordAILab to close out our fall lineup! 🌲 She shared incredible insights on Socially Responsible AI Agents and how we can align LLMs with diverse human values.

@niloofar_mire @CMU_EPP @LTIatCMU @AIatMeta @kamalikac Many congrats Niloofar jan!!😍👏

📣Thrilled to announce I’ll join Carnegie Mellon University (@CMU_EPP & @LTIatCMU) as an Assistant Professor starting Fall 2026! Until then, I’ll be a Research Scientist at @AIatMeta FAIR in SF, working with @kamalikac’s amazing team on privacy, security, and reasoning in LLMs!

I am hiring a cybersecurity expert at Google DeepMind to join our Frontier Security team in developing defenses that prevent AI misuse for cyberattacks. Apply if you are qualified, passionate about this, and can start in < 2 months. job-boards.greenhouse.io/deepmind/jobs/…

Our next colloquium is today, March 24th, with @lucy3_li from @BerkeleyISchool. The title of the talk is "Modeling Language as Social and Cultural Data" and will be held in Keller 3-180. Learn more here: z.umn.edu/LucyLi

Observations from the first low level radio information from @Starlink D2D service with @TMobile in the US: 1⃣Sat network uses MCC/MNC tuple 310-830 2⃣Signal quality is poor - at this level each cell won't deliver more than 1-3Mbps (shared by all users) 3⃣Yet network is configured for 2×2 MIMO (using multiple sats?) 4⃣Samsung firmware seems to identify the network as "SAT" (also note 🛰️ next to signal bars) source: #lightbox" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">reddit.com/r/tmobile/comm… H/T @inemesitaffia

🚨 We’ve trained on the entire web—now what? 🚨 Synthetic data holds promise as the next frontier but with caveats. Join us at the ICLR'25 workshop, "Will Synthetic Data Finally Solve the Data Access Problem?" this April in Singapore to discuss challenges and opportunities!

@albertgran @nvidia Congrats, Albert! 🎉 Best of luck in your new journey!

I am delighted to share that I have started a new role at @nvidia as a Senior Performance Research Engineer. I am very grateful for the opportunity and looking forward to contributing my best to the company. #NVIDIAlife 🚀
