We are officially moving from the designing part of the house, to seeking materials, crews, construction planning phase. Scared and excited.
From this week’s Qualia column: “I’ll just say it: What the hell is going on with AI ‘reasoning’?” www.quantamagazine.org/is-ai-reason...
Is AI Reasoning Right for the Wrong Reasons? | Quanta Magazine
The idea that artificial intelligence can “reason” is more intuitive than ever. But intuitions can be wrong, and the science is far from settled.

Λοιπόν εντυπώσεις από τη Μακάρσκα της Κροατίας μέχρι τώρα, πρώτα τα θετικά και μετά μερικά θεματάκια: - Το μέρος είναι ανυπόκριτα όμορφο. Οι παραλίες κουκλίστικες και έχεις το απότομο βουνό ακριβώς από πίσω -για να φτάσεις στα παραλιακά μέρη περνάς τούνελ- να σχηματίζει μια μεγάλη, ήπια καλντέρα. >

This year, we are going to hike Olympus from the southern side, a route starting from Vrysopoules. Naturally, an overnight stay at the refuge there next to the Plateau of the Muses, a morning coffee with the dawn and back.

I’d like to thank Nolan for his Odyssey, and for how it brought Greek culture in front of more people, but I can’t say it’s going to be a film I remember. He has done better work in the past.
Greece is positioned for success. Despite our late start. www.iefimerida.gr/oikonomia/ha...

Every summer I walk up to the Plateau of the Muses and sleep at 2,697 m, in the highest staffed refuge in the Balkans.

Nine approaches and the classic two-day loop to the Giosos Apostolidis refuge (2,697 m) on Mount Olympus, each with a topo map, elevation profile, honest difficulty and a way back to your car.

This is a really excellent benchmark, pointing to some serious missing capabilities in coding agents: arxiv.org/abs/2603.247.... They don't write code with an eye towards maintenance!

Η εγγραφή του Ολύμπου στον κατάλογο της Παγκόσμιας Πολιτιστικής Κληρονομιάς φέρνει μαζί της αρκετές υποχρεώσεις για την Ελλάδα. Η πρόοδος σε αυτές θα ελεγχθεί σε ενάμισι έτος απο σήμερα.

First shave this morning after a nice shower, and the results were very good. I think this is going to become an obsession, along with a mission to convince more people to move away from the overpriced cartridge razors marketers have conditioned us to buy.

This post workout shake has served me well for the past years. Sharing it here.
Yesterday, someone told me that Claude has a tool called EndConversationTool. Basically, it can decide to permanently end the session with you. No coming back. I found it interesting so I dug deeper. It can use it when you keep abusing it. 1/
What a great day. Created a Discord Bot for our Palworld dedicated server to be able to run commands to: !pal start !pal status !pal stop Automatically shut it down after a while, take backups and speak to it via a Discord channel. All under an hour. Welcome to the age of LLMs, I guess...
