The European Parliament’s answer to its AI worries: More AI
The institution is opening its doors to models from OpenAI, Meta, Anthropic and Mistral as it tries to bring lawmakers’ growing use of the technology under control.

Mein Kommentar:
"Es kostet Überwindung, sich angesichts von Terrorismusvorwürfen an die Seite der Betroffenen zu stellen. Ich weiß das.
Die „Chilling Effects“, also das Schweigen und der Rückzug der vielen anderen, die sich gut überlegen, ob sie sich weiter sichtbar kritisch äußern, ist ein Ziel solcher Vorwürfe gegen politisch Andersdenkende.
Wen Trump meint, ist offensichtlich: Linke, Antifaschist*innen, LGBTIQ, Fe­mi­nis­t*in­nen und noch viele andere."

Little tip when linking to source code in your docs, etc.
You can link directly to lines using anchors if the web view of your source control system supports it. e.g., for Codeberg:
https://codeberg.org/small-tech/jsdb/src/branch/main/lib/QuerySanitiser.…

jsdb/lib/QuerySanitiser.js at main
jsdb - A zero-dependency, transparent, in-memory, streaming write-on-update JavaScript database for the Small Web that persists to a JavaScript transaction log.

BUT
Meshtastic was basically dead, no one talked, or answered anything. I only got one message with the following - "test&…

I did all of my original SI simulations for the SFP28 front side launches using only layer 1 signal and layer 2 ground plane, ignoring everything deeper in the board.
Some of you asked if the ground plane voids needed to extrude all the way into the board. Does it matter?
For the BGA launch, at least, the answer is in: there is a measurable effect in simulation, but it's minimal. Return loss of the launch is better than -20 dB in both configurations so I'm not going to bo…

On an island in the Bering Sea 1,200 miles from Anchorage, Alaska, sits an abandoned house on an abandoned Navy base.
There is no furniture, and the wind blows through broken windows.
The last people to live here moved away long ago.
Yet a bright orange pipe with a black fiber-optic cable inside runs from the outer wall down into the surrounding soil.  
The cable was installed to connect the home to the internet after the base closed.
It costs more than $340…
