Wow. I've dealt with various toxic personalities in software development, but a good portion of the time those toxic personalities were at least extremely knowledgeable in their (often, very limited) domain.
AI, however, seems to be enabling toxic personalities *who are completely clueless*. Impressive!

Hah it spiked due to Renovate kicking off some PRs and thus GitHub Action runners starting on it 🎉

I managed to merge five PRs from other picolibc contributors today. I really like getting contributions from other other people; it makes me think that maybe my little project is starting to be useful in the world.

Humans are better coders than AI, CodeRabbit concludes
Security researchers analyzed 470 open-source GitHub pull requests, including 320 AI-co-authored PRs and 150 human-only PRs. In short, they found that AI tools accelerate code output, but also amplify the number of (critical) mistakes.

This is why the OpenBastard team needs to do more community outreach and not just commit more PRs

After spotting some dumbass PR on `github.com/torvalds/linux` I checked the closed PRs filter... A decision that I regret.
Why must people be so degenerate...

RAG4Tickets: AI-Powered Ticket Resolution via Retrieval-Augmented Generation on JIRA and GitHub Data
Modern software teams frequently encounter delays in resolving recurring or related issues due to fragmented knowledge scattered across JIRA tickets, developer discussions, and GitHub pull requests (PRs). To address this challenge, we propose a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) framework that integrates Sentence-Transformers for semantic embeddings with FAISS-based vector search to deliver context-aware ticket resolution recommendations. The approach embeds historical JIRA tickets, user comm…

Thanks to Beruhigungsschranz, I managed to get major refactoring done. 🥳🥳
Next up is filing PRs. 5 done already.
And theeeeen we can rewrite ME partitions; that is, relocate and truncate them to free space.

Revisiting FRB 20121102A: milliarcsecond localisation and a decreasing dispersion measure
FRB 20121102A is the original repeating fast radio burst (FRB) source and also the first to be localised to milliarcsecond precision using very-long-baseline interferometry (VLBI). It has been active for over 13 years and resides in an extreme magneto-ionic environment in a dwarf host galaxy at a distance of ~1 Gpc. In this work, we use the European VLBI Network (EVN) to (re-)localise FRB 20121102A and its associated persistent radio source (PRS). We confirm that the two are co-located -- impro…

From Edge to HPC: Investigating Cross-Facility Data Streaming Architectures
In this paper, we investigate three cross-facility data streaming architectures, Direct Streaming (DTS), Proxied Streaming (PRS), and Managed Service Streaming (MSS). We examine their architectural variations in data flow paths and deployment feasibility, and detail their implementation using the Data Streaming to HPC (DS2HPC) architectural framework and the SciStream memory-to-memory streaming toolkit on the production-grade Advanced Computing Ecosystem (ACE) infrastructure at Oak Ridge Leader…

After a fun weekend and way too little sleep for whatever reason (lolsiez), I've already pushed out a bunch more PRs for https://github.com/platform-system-interface/intel_fw including docs.
I will probably get initial ME cleaning done and tag a new prerelease today. All…

Recurrence and Stickiness in the Noisy Harper Map

Recurrence and Stickiness in the Noisy Harper Map
When three types of noise are introduced to the area-preserving Harper map, the Poincaré recurrence statistic (PRS) exhibits an extended tail, corresponding to an increased probability of longer recurrence times. For a deterministic case with a mixture of regular and chaotic orbits, regular islands are responsible for a power-law decay in the recurrence distribution. Noise perturbations allow trajectories to access the interior of the islands, and this can enhance their trapping effect, causin…
