Here I'll talk about math, programming, AI (Reinforcement Learning), Robotics, and Free Software.
An excellent new feature for @bsky.app: block sharing links that are behind paywalls, like those from the NYT.
HAPPY SOFTWARE FREEDOM DAY!!!!!! Software freedom gives everyone the chance to use, learn, share, and build with technology. Open source software is under attack, and today is a chance to celebrate and fight for free software and open source tech. 💪🏻 digitalfreedoms.org/en/software-...
I’m tired of giving friendly advice. I’m going to start offering violent alternatives
did not expect this sentence to be ambiguous in 2026

FANTASTIC VIDEO by @leejamiller.bsky.social. Watch and share all over, she breaks it all down so well.

I'm in a hurry for #ICRA27. Let's do the best this time.
I love everything on @freya.bsky.social, her content and the way in that she creates useful content is just perfect.
Here's part 2 of our interview with the Austrian Military, about their migration of 16,000 PCs to #LibreOffice: blog.documentfoundation.org/blog/2026/08... #foss #openSource #freesoftware
The main problem of humanity is that the amount of empathy is directly inverse to the amount of power/money.
More than 1,000 years ago, Maya dental specialists drilled precise cavities into teeth and fitted them with jade, turquoise and other stones. Plant-based cements secured the inlays, some of which remain intact today—a remarkable blend of craftsmanship, botanical knowledge and ancient dentistry.
Look at this: the Austrian Military (Bundesheer) moved 16,000 PCs from Microsoft Office to #LibreOffice. But why and how did they do it? Find out in this interview: blog.documentfoundation.org/blog/2026/08...
I'm looking for an app to start writing down thoughts, but even with @joplinapp.bsky.social, I can't find what I'm looking for. So, I will set up @orgmode.bsky.social on my Emacs/Termux, plus scripting to Cypher and pull to a private repo to sync between devices. Ideas/Opinions?
With the new trend towards having AI as a complementary feature in any software, it is urgent to develop software that preserves everything locally and without any access to AI models, just because there are some users who like to use technology more than being used by it. #FreeSoftware
Humanity grew up believing the part of the myth that tells everyone that humanity is the center and goal of "creation." Now, when AI looks like it could be the next version, the new sapiens, humanity is afraid of losing that central position. It's just evolution.
A book that starts this way is an amazing book, full stop.
Donald Putin or Vladimir Trump whatever the same mojón 💩. The world needs to go out of those two.
I can't imagine chimps fighting against Neanderthals, arguing that they were unnatural and that they would never be like chimps. I have a feeling that the same applies to AI.
Making a pull request of vibe code is like replacing your handwritten signature with a watermark.
We're getting very close to #LibreOffice 26.8, our next major release! The first release candidate is now available, for testing: qa.blog.documentfoundation.org/2026/07/22/l... #foss #openSource #freesoftware
Last week I presented my research in #MED26. It was a wonderful experience and amazing opportunity to know Ancona (Italy). Looking forward for #ECC26. Reykjavik (Iceland) is the next destination. #2026AnusMirabilis
Post a random picture or... nothing will change anyway 🤣
Post a random pic or else everything will go bad in July
A paradox in accountable development is: more new features lead to a larger attack surface, but fewer features lead to less optimal use of device capabilities. More multipurpose devices lead to less electronic waste, but more dedicated devices lead to more electronic waste.
I'm an old who thinks that a computer is for doing science, a gaming console is for gaming, and a phone is for communication (no Facebook at all).
