Airbus is moving 900 critical apps off AWS to a French cloud provider. Not because American tech is bad. Because American law can demand access to it anywhere. Europe's sovereignty problem just became Europe's vendor opportunity. https://thenextweb.com/news/airbus-scaleway-aws-sovereign-cloud

Muistatteko DOGEn, siis Elon Muskin johtaman viraston jossa pikkuelonit saksivat kaikkea tutkimusta mikä kuulosti heidän korviin sellaiselta joka voi tuottaa ikäviä tuloksia. Pikkasen samanlaiset vibat tässä
Minä. Minä ihan itse. "Rydman kertoo käyneensä kaikki hankkeiden tutkimussuunnitelmat läpi, mitä hän kuvailee ministereille epätyypilliseksi tavaksi. – Jos en pystynyt vakuuttumaan tutkimushankkeen perusteltavuudesta vallitsevassa valtiontalouden tilanteessa, päätin hylätä rahoitushakemuksen."

I visited the Helsinki Library and it has a frigg'n makerspace in the middle of it! Laster cutters, 3D printers, Vinyl cutters, all for nearly free. It also has "video game rooms", general meeting rooms, 2 cafes and a restaurant! It's astounding what you can have if you fund public works.
This is such a cool explosion. Like if you ever find yourself in a situation where you need to explode, do it like this.

"Focus on high priority threats" sounds obvious. I'm not sure it is. New post on why unstructured prioritization is its own kind of risk, and what to do about it. shostack.org/blog/focus-o...

It’s easy to think prioritization is an easy problem, but it’s one deserving careful consideration.

Remember when everyone was saying AI would replace/displace script writers and prose authors, and it was all over the news...then suddenly nobody was talking about it and it never happened? Here's part one of why...and why that was deliberate. jmichaelstraczynski.substack.com/p/silence-wh...
Listening to infosec people freak out over Mythos is so tiring. Like, bro, your local water treatment plant runs Windows XP, your mobile provider's hardware is older than you are, and the protocol that routes internet traffic is secured by everyone just agreeing that hijacking it would be uncool.
"Tämä riski tunnistettiin jo eduskuntakäsittelyvaiheessa, mutta muutosta opiskelijan velvollisuuksiin ei tullut, vaikka olimme opiskelijoiden tilanteesta huolissamme" Aika moniin asioihin ei ole tullut valitettavasti muutosta, vaikka olen ollut niistä huolissani. www.hs.fi/politiikka/a...
Sosiaaliturva | Kyllä: opiskelupaikasta pitää erota, jotta voi saada työttömyystukea
Jos opiskelija joutuu hakemaan työttömyysetuutta, ei opintojen edistämisen keskeyttäminen riitä. Pääsääntö on, että opiskelupaikka pitää jättää kokonaan.

Good example of the particle-wave aspect of LLMs: These tools can allow you to do amazing things very quickly, but they are often the wrong things. Something is still missing. annaecook.com/writing/2026...
AI Prototyping: Harder. Worser. Faster. Wronger. — Anna E. Cook
As teams use AI tools to generate high-fidelity prototypes, the focus shifts to output instead of purpose. Prototyping should be about testing ideas and learning what actually works before building.

Ihmiset, jotka lumoutuvat vakuuttavan kuuloisesta, mutta merkityksettömästä kielestä: - kyseenalaistavat vähemmän omia käsityksiä - ongelmanratkaisukyky on heikompi - tunnistavat huonommin loogisia ristiriitoja Nimenomainen ongelma myös tekoälyn kanssa. www.hs.fi/visio/art-20...
Johtaminen | Tutkimus: Bisnesjargonia rakastavat tekevät huonoja päätöksiä
Bisnesjargonia on pidetty pitkään lähinnä ärsyttävänä ilmiönä. Nyt tuore tutkimus osoittaa, että sillä on yhteys myös ajattelun laatuun: ihmiset, jotka pitävät tällaista puhetta vakuuttavana, tekevät ...

Jos haluat tietää, miten korkea talo on rakenteilla, katso miten syvälle perusta kaivetaan. Jos haluat tietää, miten korkealle joku tähtää, katso miten syvälle hän perusasiat takoo. Mitä syvemmät juuret, sitä korkeammalle voi kurottaa. Kaivelua ja kurottelua tähänkin päivään😘
NEW: Federal Cyber Experts Thought Microsoft’s Cloud Was “a Pile of Shit.” They Approved It Anyway. A program created to protect the government against cyber threats authorized a sprawling Microsoft cloud product, despite the company’s inability to fully explain how it protects sensitive data.

AI is not inevitable. If we had sane people in government that were not in thrall to billionaire tech CEOs, LLMs could be regulated, forced to obey existing copyright laws, and banned from places where their use is inappropriate, such as college classes. This should be a moderate position.
