What a morning and long day it was last week! Was already out & about for 3 hours when I got to this place, earlier mostly taking hundreds of images of the nearby (~500m away) Breslauer Hut and vicinity during sunrise... The first large (and loud) group of people already got up at 4AM, getting ready for climbing Wildspitze, another group left an hour later, as did I. Maintenance/repair works on the hut continued at 08:30, taking lots more pictures to document, interviewin…

Photo of a high alpine landscape with three different valleys in bright hazy morning light. In the bottom left corner, still in the shade, a meandering creek is flowing down the rocky hanging valley formed by its former glacier. A small talus field in the sun, next to the path. Further in the distance much larger, deeper valleys, their floor occluded and only the upper sections illuminated. Glaciated peaks along the whole horizon, partially blanked out by intense bright light. Clear blue sky.
A small footpath, surrounded by talus fields, leading into the distance. Behind, on the other side of the invisible valley, some of the immense, imposing, glaciated peaks of the Kreuzkamm, specifically Talleitspitze (3406m) and Kreuzspitze (3455m). Not much is remaining of the formerly grand Eisferner in between these peaks. Clear blue sky.

A hillside villa that served as a cultural hub for German writers and artists fleeing the Nazis
and narrowly escaped destruction in last year’s Los Angeles wildfires
reopened its doors to the public this weekend,
marking the latest milestone in the city’s slow recovery from one of the darkest chapters in its history.
Hundreds of friends of the Villa Aurora,
a 1920s Spanish Mediterranean house that has taken on a second life as a cultural center with a fierce com…

omg there is an actual emeritus office now!

A small, sparsely furnished emeritus office, room 3128, viewed through its glass-paneled door. The nameplate reads "Computer Science & Engineering – Emeritus Office – 3128." Inside, gray carpet tile with flecks of orange runs to a large window with vertical blinds partly drawn, giving a view of an adjacent brick/tile building under a clear blue sky. A young fiddle-leaf fig plant sits in a black pot near the window alongside an empty black planter, and a black filing cabinet with a wood-toned to…
It’s me! In the emeritus office! In a brand new Herman Miller chair! A close-up selfie of an older man [hmph] sitting in a black mesh-back office chair (Herman Miller style) in the same emeritus office as the previous photo. He's balding [ok ok enough] with white hair [oh ok so I am old already!] on the sides, wears rectangular black-framed glasses, and has a white mustache and soul patch. He's wearing a lavender-and-white striped button-down shirt, open at the collar, with a small beaded neck…
The view from my office window. A wide daytime view over U-M's North Campus, looking out from a few floors up. On the left stands Baits Tower (the brick clock/bell tower with its distinctive stepped, angular design), rising above the surrounding plaza and lawns. Below and around it, brick-paved walkways and green lawns with young trees lead across the diag toward a low brick building in the middle distance, part of the Duderstadt Center, with a glass-walled corridor section. In the foreground…

That ridiculous feeling when you put on a dumb Hindi comedy/action movie (Bank Chor, 2017) to chill, and half-way through are startled to find that one of your best friends from high school, Suresh Venkat, is in it. Totally destroyed my concentration, which fortunately it did not need.

Gemini 4 Argon has a 1M-token output limit, up from 64K for prior models; it initially costs $2/1M input and $10/1M output tokens, rising to $4 and $20 later (Matthias Bastian/The Decoder)

Google Gemini 4 Argon closes the gap with OpenAI and Anthropic but doesn't take a clear lead
Gemini 4 Argon is Google's first frontier model in over seven months. It matches GPT-6 Astra in independent testing but can't keep up with Anthropic's Claude Opus 5.5. The per-token price is low, but Argon burns through more than twice as many tokens per task as Astra. Select testers get access first, with the API and paid tiers following later.
