FOTBCD: A Geographically Diverse Dataset for Building Change Detection from High-Resolution Aerial Imagery

What happens when you can monitor global cropland daily in near real time? On the latest #AgTechTalk podcast by @AgBusinessMedia, Andrew Pylypchuk breaks down how next-gen satellite data is reshaping #agriculture and the ag value chain. 🎧Listen now: hubs.li/Q04hwfHk0

@LakelandUK this is the second drysoon that I’ve owned that has failed with this issue - is this built in obsolescence? Thanks

@MLWhiz Less time coding, more time reviewing and identifying agent over-reach. This is the new normal

We're watching three simultaneous shifts in how code gets written: → Uber: 84% of engineers adopted Claude Code, 70% of commits now AI-generated. They burned their entire 2026 AI budget in four months. → Amazon: Employees "tokenmaxxing" to hit AI usage metrics — a sign that mandates without strategy create perverse incentives. → Developer blogs: "I'm Going Back to Writing Code by Hand" — not rejecting tools, but rejecting dependence. Staying sharp by choice. The tension is real. AI makes us faster. But when the AI writes code we don't design, our ability to design atrophies. Some developers are even asking: if AI reads and writes the code, why optimize for human ergonomics? Why not use languages with stronger type systems and better performance? Three decades of assumptions — about security, workflows, and language design — are all breaking at once. My take: use AI aggressively for code you understand and could write yourself. Use it cautiously when it's teaching you something new. The real skill isn't avoiding the tools. It's using them without losing the mental models that make you effective when the tools fail. How are you thinking about this balance?

@TeslaJigsaw @weareboxt I think they’ve been inundated with enquiries..!

I've just received a quote for home Solar + Tesla Powerwall 3 from @weareboxt This is Tesla’s new UK bundle (working with BOXT as installer) as they move towards launching 'Tesla Electric' as an energy provider here! I've been dreaming of energy independence - sunshine powering my Tesla, plus a battery for cheap overnight rates and spare solar. This could finally make it affordable for my family 😎🤞 ...Video with my quote details coming soon. Have you done this already?

AlphaEarth Embeddings, Zonal Statistics, and PCA

UK Tesla owners can get Powerwall 3 for £149/mo over 4 years including installation

@fmenat14 @rptu_kl_ld @DFKI Congrats!!

I'm quite happy to share that after submitting my PhD in September last year, I finally defended my PhD at @rptu_kl_ld 😁😁. It was a long journey in @DFKI filled with experiences and learning 🤖

LabelMe v6.2 is out. - Oriented rectangle shape: a rotated bounding box that hugs off-angle objects (parking lots from above, ships, scanned text). - More AI-assisted shapes: oriented rectangle, rectangle, and circle, fitted from a SAM mask.

With seven satellites now in orbit, @EarthDailyA is moving into the next phase of constellation deployment and commercial readiness. Our new blog looks at what comes next. 👉Read more: hubs.li/Q04f-1ts0 #EarthObservation #SatelliteLaunch #SpaceTech

@MaxLenormand Congrats to you both! Looks like a lovely venue to tie the knot 🪢

Life update: on Wednesday I married my best friend! We got married in a small farm in the Netherlands, a place we’ve both been living in for the last few years, with our closest friends and family The world is always changing, the future is always uncertain and feels at times bleak. But now I know whatever happens I’ll go through it with my wife!

Fully Automatic Trace Gas Plume Detection

@wkentaro_ Should have gone with the 20kg option 😉

Next level

New capability 👇

TerraKit and TerraTorch have joined the TorchGeo org 👇

All six @EarthDailyA satellites are now in orbit, with contact established across EDC-02 through EDC-07 following the May 3 launch aboard SpaceX Falcon 9. 7 in space. 3 more to go. Data delivery begins end of summer. 🚀 👉Details: hubs.li/Q04fjc3-0
