Another video, this one of a Swedish Coast Guard patrol on Oct. 24. These are fun to make. www.youtube.com/watch?v=mU1z...

openai should invite nathan fielder and a camera crew to live in their office and document everything they do

I've updated my experimental AIS tracking site, fta-ais-live.obliscence.com, with UI improvements (it works on mobile now) and better GPS/GNSS anomaly detection and classification. (cc/ @tinkafur.bsky.social @miskaknapek.bsky.social @auonsson.bsky.social)

Apple Vision Pros are still really expensive, but they're also really good, and in the era of Opus 5.5 it's really fun to make apps for them. This feels incredible in immersive 3D.

A big fist bump between Signature Aviation's fueler and the Eastern Air Express captain flying yesterday's ICE Air flight at MSP. They took away 24 shackled migrants from their homes around the Twin Cities. If a loved one may have been aboard, full video is here: youtube.com/watch?v=1-xmZiNEhC4

I made base-1353 encoding, so I can fit 256-bit values, like “96cca2a0c8a3263c74ef36274abf55f410d992034d16e8285811a9ad3fc59c13”, into short 26 character strings, like “ᓒᔳᣏዧᐎᑙᖜዌᙔᐸƫȶƃᒨዊጶᙵኻѫyፐᎉᑫᖫᘪᒩ”. (Also, I think these sigils are beautiful.) johnservil.github.io/sigil/play.h...

I was told the scary computer security warnings from Anthropic et al were just marketing. Or was it that this wouldn’t be happening if they just sandboxed correctly, right?

I made two wrong guesses what the final product would be. And for a how-it's-made-type video there were twice the usual number of steps where I was like, "wow, they do _that_!?" Including the very last step.

I'm quantifying exactly how much camera I'd need in order to see an adequate number of cool aircraft at an acceptable quality at three different potential sites.

"So the guy called himself a king" *muffled gasps from the panel* "and he sent thousands of soldiers to quarter in my city" *Washington audibly whispers "what the f-"* "and so we, like, formed this system where we'd call up people within a minute or two if they showed up" Paul Revere: hell yes

This looks like a simulated creature that evolved to exploit a loophole in the physics engine. www.sciencenews.org/article/tiny...

"Sources disagree on the tower's location—one puts it at the field's northeast corner, another marks it at the administration building. I'll check the satellite imagery directly for a telltale shadow." Claude, I love your enthusiasm, but really just a rough estimate would have been fine.
