Fantastic welcome from SMK's Merete Sanderhoff and Jonas Heide Smith to start the Europeana Network Association Cross-Community Workshop on Culture for AI https://pro.europeana.eu/event/europeana-network-association-cross-commu…

@maxtappenden@techhub.social Yeah, e-paper. Not sure how different the tech is from, say, a Kindle but refresh rate is high enough that it doesn't feel janky. I had the OG Pebble Time/Time Steel so this is a return to a workflow I was happy with for a few years.

Looking forward to switching my email from Google Workspace to different provider.
Still not sure which one, but we’ll figure this out.

I donated to Develop Africa to support students in Sierra Leone.

Engaging and Educating Eclipse Observers Through Workshops, Media, Planetarium shows and Citizen Science
The Heliophysics Big Year was an extended year where major solar events engaged the public. It included two eclipses (annular on October 14, 2023 and total on April 8, 2024), plus solar max and the Parker Solar Probe perihelion December 24, 2024. After the eclipse of 2017, many millions more Americans planned to view the solar corona. We expanded our eclipse website with activities, citizen science projects, resources, training videos, equipment, and external links. We were the Southwest Region…

QuantMind: A Context-Engineering Based Knowledge Framework for Quantitative Finance
Quantitative research increasingly relies on unstructured financial content such as filings, earnings calls, and research notes, yet existing LLM and RAG pipelines struggle with point-in-time correctness, evidence attribution, and integration into research workflows. To tackle this, We present QuantMind, an intelligent knowledge extraction and retrieval framework tailored to quantitative finance. QuantMind adopts a two-stage architecture: (i) a knowledge extraction stage that transforms heterog…

Japan Daily on Instagram: "For the first time in Japan, foreign nationals have begun driving local bus routes under the Specified Skilled Worker program to address severe labor shortages. Tokyo Bus launched the initiative on December 23 in Tokyo and Okinawa, hiring five drivers from the Philippines after long-term training. The company says even higher wages have not attracted enough domestic drivers, making outside talent necessary. New drivers initially operate with support from Japanese staff and are expected to work independently after several months. Industry leaders hope the move will stabilize bus services and ensure passenger safety. Public understanding and continued training will be important as Japan adapts to workforce shortages in essential public services. @YAHOO"
