The 2nd Robot Marathon has officially begun in Beijing. This year feels different. 1. Around 40% of teams are running fully autonomous, no remote control. 2. Top robots are already hitting ~10s per 100 meter, getting surprisingly close to human sprint limits. 3. You can also see much better safety design upfront. Way more structured than last year’s chaos. 4. Still, failures happen. Marathon distance pushes motors, structure, and control to the limit. What works in short demos breaks down over longer runs. Overall, a big step forward, but also a reminder that real-world robotics is still far from the polished demo videos you get fed from companies.


men it’s actually so attractive when you’re vulnerable and share real emotions. please stop being scared of it

The scandal over this photo perfectly reflects so many accusations of antisemitism. In this case, a photo captures exactly how a settler looks, and the magazine is condemned as antisemitic because his appearance supposedly is identical to “caricatures.” Meanwhile, when criticizing Israel, you can accurately describe exactly what it does with extensive sources and proof, and they call you hateful because the actions may align with antisemitic “tropes.” Instead of condemning Israel for manifesting the worst antisemitic stereotypes, they say doing so is hateful. Reality is antisemitic to them because it does not align with the Jewish supremacist worldview they have been propagating their whole lives. lespresso.it/c/attualita/20…
