Bu gün Eskişehir'de kıştan kalma bir gün ve yağmur vardı. Her ne kadar emekli olsam da daha önce sağlık emekçisi olduğum için 1 Mayıs kutlamasına gittim. Kortejle miting alanına giderken baktım çok sayıda DİSK üyesi geri dönüyor. Biz daha alana gitmedik bunlar dönüyor miting bitti mi diye oradakilere sordum.
Yanıt: Miting sunucusu önce Türk-İş'in adını okudu diye DİSK meydanı terk etmiş. Resmen şarkıcı kaprisi bu.

I don't know how many other people here delighted in Jill Bearup's #JustStabMeNow YouTube series, or went on to buy the self-published book that spun out of it (yes, that's my hand in the photograph, holding my copy of the aforementioned novel), but she's now touting the idea of a spin-off big screen movie, and I comfess I'm bubbling with delight at the sheer metaness of …

My hand, holding my copy of the aforementioned tome. It is a paperback, with the title written in a cursive font over a background drawing of a heart-shaped flower arrangement.

'Needs more knives', and other similar small notes, complete the design.

Abstract: Motion retargeting from humans to human-like artificial agents is becoming increasingly important as humanoid robots grow more capable. However, most existing approaches focus only on reproducing kinematics and ignore the rich sensorimotor experience associated with human movement. In this work, we present a framework for simulating the multimodal sensorimotor experiences of infants using physical and virtual humanoids. From a single video, our method reconstructs the infant's body configuration by extracting its skeletal structure and estimating the full 3D pose from each frame. Then we map the reconstructed motion onto several developmental platforms: the physical iCub robot and the virtual simulators pyCub, EMFANT and MIMo. Replaying the retargeted motions on these embodiments produces simulated multisensory streams including proprioception (joints and muscles), touch, and vision. For the best-matching embodiment, the retargeting achieves sub-centimeter accuracy and enables a rich multimodal analysis of infant development as well as enhanced automated annotation of behaviors. This framework provides a unique window into the infant's sensorimotor experience, offering new tools for robotics, developmental science, and early detection of neurodevelopmental disorders.

finally! the pond is *just* overtop the intake bay inlet and flow has reversed to its proper skimming mode. have pump 1 on low and slow. There is just enough water coming in now for the level ti only drop very slowly.
am I sitting on the edge of the pond at dark at midnight watching the water rise ever so slowly so that I can go ?
yes 😂
edit: it's 1AM. Just turned off the water. Both pumps are at 90% power and the water level appears stable. I'm going to go out on a limb and call it a night and hope there is water in the right places in the morning.
who am I kidding. of course there will be. It's even awesome at night.
This was a good day!! 😁 👍
