Q1: @MakersHour
Tell us a bit about yourself, an unusual creative fact or event in life maybe?
A1: Hello, I am Alfred, maker, carer, caretaker, and miniaturist story teller.
When I was about 7 years old I ‘borrowed’ some aluminium sheet from Dad’s work stash. I did my first bit of metal cutting and panel beating to make a knight’s armour gauntlet because I had seen one in a book. It was fitted around a rubber washing up glove and included all the movable joints hinged on copper wire ‘rivets’. I wore it to school, and the teachers took it off me until home time as I wasn’t allowed to play with it during the breaks. While wearing it, I could play at having a robot hand.
Tonight’s soundtrack is: The Essential Status Quo – Volume 3.

I've been playing around with Kimi K2 on Groq (with a Q) via TypingMind, and it's been an eye-opening experience to see just how much *truly fast* inference changes my perspective of LLMs for work.

I’ll talk about this more in depth in Monday’s episode of AppStories (if you’re a Plus subscriber, it’ll be out on Sunday), but I wanted to post a quick note on the site to show off what I’ve been experimenting with this week.Federico Viticci (MacStories)

Der #Journalist Dawit Isaak wurde 2001 in #Eritrea festgenommen. Er hatte sich beim Informationsministerium über die Schließung unabhängiger Medienkanäle beschwert. Seither wird er ohne Kontakt zur Außenwelt festgehalten. Die Behörden verweigern die Auskunft über seinen Aufenthaltsort oder seinen Gesundheitszustand.
Die Inhaftierung von #DawitIsaak und anderer #Journalisten ist rechtswidrig. Wir fordern ihre Freilassung!

Ein grünes Spiel-Boy-Gerät wird von der Hand eines Benutzers gehalten. Der Bildschirm zeigt einen Text auf Schwarz an. Der Text lautet: "SUPER MARIO LAND". Darunter steht ein weiterer Text: "START". Ein weiteres Textfeld zeigt "1990" und darunter steht "Nintendo".

Here's a description of the image:
The image depicts a group of five figures standing beside a large, boxy, pink vehicle on a rocky, wet landscape. The sky is overcast and gray, creating a subdued and slightly desolate atmosphere. The vehicle appears to be some sort of transport or cargo carrier, with a utilitarian design and visible panels and access points. The figures are all wearing similar bulky, gray suits with backpacks, suggesting they might be explorers or workers. Visible on the side of the vehicle in white lettering are the words "LSE" and "Militaria".

#MakersHour
A1: US resident, embroidery and piecing are my crafts, or cutting up cardboard into stand-up figurines.
I started needlecraft as a non-media habit during graduate school. If I had finished my original graduate school programme, I might now be losing my civil service scientist job at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena as a result of government malfeasance. But I could have been a Mars Rover Driver. I could have been Somebody!
Missing out on JPL, is very like me missing out on doing my engineering degree at Brunel or Imperial. I got offers from both, but parents wanted me to go somewhere closer to home.

A potential US return to nuclear testing could upend decades of non-proliferation. But this is part of a much larger, systemic shift in global conflict.
• The ‘America First’ ripple effect on alliances.
• The failure of traditional peacekeeping models.
• The Pentagon’s formalization of Irregular Warfare.
• The structural competition between the US and China.
• Europe’s race for defense autonomy.
• How narratives are now a battlefield.
