Le Forgeathon, c'est fini pour cette année !

Un week-end intense organisé par l'AEIF avec des heures de code, mais aussi des rencontres et des découvertes autour des projets de la Forge des Communs Numériques Educatifs à laquelle nous sommes heureux et fiers de contribuer ❤️.
Des échanges passionnants avec les collègues du premier degré et de matières variées, qui partagent tous les valeurs du libre éducatif.

Merci à @poulmairecharles , @framaka et à l'EPITA 🙏

A Boy And His Dog:

Asilomar Beach. California December 14, 2024.

A very rare (sorta) selfie.

This time last year was a stormy weekend in Monterey Bay with extensive power outages and rolling rain.

After getting a bit of cabin fever, Evelia and I took Rose down to Asilomar Beach for an evening walk. Evelia grabbed this shot of Rose and Myself. It is one of my favs.

JustHTML by @EmilStenstrom is a new Python library (no dependencies) that parses HTML according to the HTML5 specification and passes the 9,200 test html5lib-tests suite

It's 3,000 lines of code mostly written by coding agents over a couple of months simonwillison.net/2025/Dec/14/…

I will note this should say "ALLEGEDLY" quitting the SSD business. But it's still concerning. Samsung represents about 20% of the SATA SSD market.

The disclosure of who funds research is an important way of building trust in published findings.

Commenting on recent interventions by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) and the International Science Council (ISC), @HLdeJonge @KatharinaRieck Zoé Ancion (co-chairs of the Barcelona Declaration working group on funding metadata) argue that to be truly effective funder metadata should be made openly accessible to all beyond the level of individual publications.

🇩🇪 Peace talks on Ukraine resume Monday in Berlin. While the exact proposals remain undisclosed, the U.S. signaled confidence by sending a delegation. The Kremlin remains skeptical, with Putin’s advisor dismissing European and Ukrainian input as unconstructive.

This digital illustration depicts two characters embracing on a rocky shore at night. The character on the left is kneeling and wearing a white, frilly dress with long sleeves and a ribbon at the chest, and has long, flowing white hair. The character on the right is standing and wears a dark robe and has large, dragon-like wings that are outstretched behind them. They both have light blue or white hair and pale skin. The background features a dark blue sea and sky filled with stars, and the rocks around them are also illuminated with a blue glow. There is no text present in the image.

I can't really blame Trump for posting that the suspect was caught prematurely when that had been reported. I just wish everybody was here and governments and media were running their own social media servers and big accounts could/would just boost the people best in the position to know, via posts they could forever edit as conditions change.

Una ilustración vibrante y colorida con una atmósfera orgánica y natural. En el centro de la imagen, un niño y una niña, de pie uno al lado del otro, se toman de las manos y miran hacia el espectador. El fondo está compuesto por una exuberante vegetación con hojas verdes de varias formas y tamaños, y flores en tonos amarillos y rosas. Hay varios animales pequeños, como insectos, escarabajos y renacuajos, dispersos por toda la composición. Un texto en un recuadro verde dice: "Apoyo mutuo, biología de sistemas y filosofía del cáncer junto a Matías Blaustein investigador CONICET y profesor de la UBA". El estilo es reminiscente de una ilustración botánica con detalles minuciosos y colores saturados.

I had another protest last night. Everything went great, even if it was kinda cold, and the most remarkable thing was the white men we talked to. There were several who by the demographics seemed like they were at least former MAGAs. Now--out of sad necessity-- our group of protesters was all white except for a few people of color who were passing by and joined in for a while. The guys only talked to the core group, and it's as well-- we know how to talk to soft MAGAs.
in reply to Scary Austin VOTED 4 HARRIS!

And it's not like anybody, especially POC, really want to deal with those folks. People of color and LGBT people of course have every reason to fear for their safety.

But they were nice to us and even seemed somewhat supportive. Describing their own politics they all said they "hate the left and right both." Which I guess is what former Trumpers are saying this day, because that's not the first time I've heard that from a curious, white male passer by.

in reply to Scary Austin VOTED 4 HARRIS!

Our group contains me-- a country girl from a red state who grew around both the rural and 1%er MAGAs-- and a veteran and his wife, both of whom also know how to talk to conservatives from long experience with the Navy. We deliberately choose 80/20 issues for our protests because we are not preaching to the converted-- we do "no kings," "healthcare not wealthcare," "stand with Ukraine," and other issues that a lot of MAGAs agree with.

Finally! After two days of work, I've managed to implement enough of MLS (Messaging Layer Security) to be able to create a new group with a single member, invite another member, then exchange an encrypted message.

I've worked on MLS two years ago, and at the time I got almost all of the test vectors working. This week-end I've fixed the remaining tests, implemented logic required to be an active client (generating groups and various messages), and wired everything up together.

Article link, but it's a gift link from someone and I don't know how long it will last.

in reply to Geoff Wozniak

aha! Thx for the link. It FINALLY validates my memory that the dates were changed at some point, but it seemed nobody talked about it. I felt like a hidden reinvention of history suddenly when it shifted from 1961. That was weird.

The explanation makes sense – that it was the desire to recast early millennials as GenX that encouraged someone to artificially shift the start date.

My piece, “Lion In the Winter (Ancient Vine Flame Tokay),” has remained an enduring favorite. Captured one chilly winter morning, it is one moment in the life of a grapevine planted in 1889, still going strong after over 130 years. A haiku:

The old man in fog—
silent witness, arms outstretched,
Wise beyond his years.

The comprehension that consciousness exists within the body mind and spirit of a person is a belief held across the eons of humanities time of existence, could that consciousness seek to escape it's earthly vessel and transcend existence to become one with the cosmos, the profound thought that you could harbor an intelligence that is merely symbiotic with your earthly existence, that at any point of it's choosing ones consciousness could decouple it's self from it's flesh and blood host, should both inspire hope and fear;

For as the days go forward I find myself with more anxiety and the overwhelming of a claustrophobic feeling, as my intelligence is cosmic bound at light speeds, while my executive and cognitive functions are retreating to an infantile state on a near equal plane, for is my consciousness so overwhelmed with a body of constant pain, a mind mired in turmoil and a life of debleating poverty, more than it both wants to bear and be witness unto;

Upon the introspective view the void is vast dark and cold, yet trapped and confined as if chained to a tree for all of time, is my mind dying, is my mind dreaming, is my mind truly leaving me;

"The research reveals that LLMs can be overconfident in their own answers yet quickly lose that confidence and change their minds when presented with a counterargument, even if the counterargument is incorrect. Understanding the nuances of this behavior can have direct consequences on how you build LLM applications, especially conversational interfaces that span several turns."

in reply to Gerry McGovern

This is all anthropomorphizing though. LLMs are text extrusion machines. They do not have "confidence". And they don't "change their minds". They output likely patterns of letters and words. If a particular set of words you input (like "that's wrong") are likely to be followed by different words than the previous input, they will give different words than before. There's no "changing their mind" involved, just pattern matching.

Fuck the Village People.

For all of its issues through the centuries, the YMCA has sought to be a place of compassionate, empathy, and well-being. Tying this anthem to Trump is despicable.

What a waste of a legacy.

This isn't a request; it's a humanitarian appeal. A simple tent can mean warmth, safety, and dignity. Did you know? $5 can cover basic shelter needs for one day in crisis zones. A small contribution, a big impact. Compassion continues to

This is a close-up, slightly angled, indoor shot with a dark, shadowed color palette. The image appears to be taken from within a structure constructed of dark plastic sheeting, which forms a tent-like space. Numerous crumpled and folded pieces of plastic bags and sheeting are visible, ranging in color from clear to brown and white. The plastic is bunched and overlapping, creating a chaotic texture in the foreground. A small amount of light is coming from an opening at the top of the frame, illuminating the plastic and creating strong shadows.

A wide shot depicts a muddy, debris-filled area with makeshift structures in the foreground and background. Several structures appear to be constructed from tarps and other materials, creating a temporary settlement. In the center of the frame, a young person stands facing the camera, dressed in a bright red outfit. A few other people are visible in the distance walking away. The ground is covered in trash and scattered debris, and the sky is overcast.
