Trump appears to be building an unprecedented spy machine that could track Americans
As Donald Trump and his administration pursue crippling austerity measures across the country, they’re plunging millions into a company that’s expanding the government’s ability to spy on its own citizens.

BREAKING: New Mike Lee Amendment to sell off public lands has been approved to be part of Trump's Big Beautiful Mess.
Senators like Steve Daines will be voting on this bill at any moment and we need to let them know loud and clear that we strongly oppose the sale of ANY of our public lands.
This land belongs to us, and greedy billionaire developers can't have it.

We need to stop reasoning about AI like this. Every time it can do something amazing it's "well that's just because its training data is so big, everything is bound to be in there."

A blog about making culture. Since 1999.

I started the morning with the objective of putting the plants we brought from our old house into our new yard. But I quickly realized all the tools I needed were sprinkled throughout my disorganized garage. So I spent 3 hours ripping out old cabinets left by the previous owners to make some space and then hunting through our piles of stuff to find the garden tools. Got most of it organized, so at least I can actually put my hands on stuff. A small step forward.

Hearing Hands: Generating Sounds from Physical Interactions in 3D Scenes
We study the problem of making 3D scene reconstructions interactive by asking the following question: can we predict the sounds of human hands physically interacting with a scene? First, we record a video of a human manipulating objects within a 3D scene using their hands. We then use these action-sound pairs to train a rectified flow model to map 3D hand trajectories to their corresponding audio. At test time, a user can query the model for other actions, parameterized as sequences of hand pos…

CoDA: Coordinated Diffusion Noise Optimization for Whole-Body Manipulation of Articulated Objects
Synthesizing whole-body manipulation of articulated objects, including body motion, hand motion, and object motion, is a critical yet challenging task with broad applications in virtual humans and robotics. The core challenges are twofold. First, achieving realistic whole-body motion requires tight coordination between the hands and the rest of the body, as their movements are interdependent during manipulation. Second, articulated object manipulation typically involves high degrees of freedom …
