Today's #HamRadio project was making elevated radials for an HF vertical. I have a 25' whip, a JPC-12, and some random parts I made. My idea is to have more efficient elevated radials, but unlike ground-coupled radials, elevated radials need to be tuned.
I thought this would take me 1–2 hours.
It took about 5 hours.
When you have ground-coupled radials, you have only o…

Word and Excel vs LLMs.
Secretaries became executive assistants, their role evolved to higher-level coordination, communication, and decision support. Accountants gained the ability to do far more analysis, strategic planning, and advisory work. The tools eliminated tedious manual tasks, but the roles themselves weren't eliminated. They were elevated.
The same pattern applies to programmers. LLMs can handle boilerplate, generate first drafts, automate simple tasks.

Financial markets fall to new 2026 low as oil rises again
The longer oil prices remain elevated, it’s going to be harder to avoid a bad economic outcome,”
said Tom Porcelli, chief economist at Wells Fargo.
If the increase in oil prices holds for the next several months, that economic headwind could cancel out the tax cuts and other stimulus that the Trump administration was counting on, he added.
Financial leaders around the world have begun to warn that the global econo…

Experimental Validation of HomHBFEM Simulations of Fast Corrector Magnets for PETRA IV

arXiv:2602.14824v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: This paper presents experimental validation of the homogenized harmonic balance finite element method (HomHBFEM), which we have developed as a dedicated simulation technique for magnets with fast excitation cycles, in particular the fast corrector (FC) magnets for PETRA IV at DESY. The HomHBFEM allows efficient three-dimensional nonlinear eddy-current simulations of laminated magnets at elevated frequencies with a relatively coarse finite element (FE) mesh and without computationally expensive time-stepping. This is achieved by combining a frequency-domain-based homogenization technique with the harmonic balance FE method. The simulation results for the magnetic flux density along the axis of the FC magnets as a function of frequency and the resulting integrated transfer function (ITF) are compared to Hall probe and search coil measurements of the first prototype FC magnet for PETRA IV. A good agreement between simulated and measured ITFs is achieved for excitation frequencies from 10 Hz to 10 kHz.

If you think #vibecoding is fine, let me ask you a single question: would you use a medical device whose software was vibecoded? And by "medical device" I mean something where a bug could literally kill you.
If you answered "oh, gawd, no!" then consider that anytime you use an #LLM to contribute to or develop an #OpenSource project, there's a chance that this code will end up powering such a device. And even if it doesn't, you're setting a trend, and it will be even more likely that the software used by these devices will be vibecoded.
I have type 1 #diabetes. I also lead a physically active life. This is both a blessing and a curse. My doctors keep suggesting Constant Glucose Monitoring systems and insulin pumps to me. And I do realize that such hardware would likely improve my blood glucose, and definitely make my life much easier (especially with a closed loop system).
So why do my fingertips look like crap, and I keep using a glucometer and insulin pens? Because I don't want to risk my life to an unnecessarily complex technology.
Admittedly, I occasionally get things wrong and suffer consequences. Or I suspect I got them wrong and worry. Or meet an unexpected situation and need to figure out a way out. Or even accept having elevated glucose levels (as in nearing 200 mg/dl) because there's just no way to safely fit insulin doses on a particular day.
But still, I prefer having control and risking my own mistakes to a device that could suddenly start pumping insulin because of a bug. And that was even before the story of the application that stripped the decimal point and gave people ten times the dose. Or the one about CGMs giving wrong high glucose alerts. Or the whole vibecoding fancy.
Back then, I could have considered such a device. Now, I'm more worried than ever. And honestly, I'm hoping that relatively simple glucometers will remain available. To think that my worst fear used to be of a mechanical fault…
