Was für ein Auftakt gestern vor dem Protestwochenende anläßlich des AFD-Reichsparteitages in #Erfurt. Danke an #keinBockaufNazis! 🌈🌼😍 #erf0407 #AFDParteitag
Found a tentative answer to my own question: How does a agentic coding “spurt” differ from traditional overwork Things like overtime + lack of sleep are well-known; what's new is the loss of impulse control... which keeps drawing me back to my laptop. That's different to the traditional work model.
Torsten Goerke@tgoerke.bsky.social · 2mo agoI’ve now gained first-hand experience from a whole week of intensive agentic coding with a severe lack of sleep. I’m taking steps to address this and keeping in touch with my family.
195 metascience essays, read cover to cover by @asterainstitute.bsky.social . Top theme by far: coordination failure — not funding, not ideas. No shared mechanism for maintaining, prioritizing, or reusing work across labs. h/t @seemaychou.bsky.social for writing it up so clearly.
Astera Institute@asterainstitute.bsky.social · 5mo agoICYMI an essay competition specifically for active researchers: 1st prize $30K, 2nd $10K, 3rd $5K. Public submissions only: astera.org/essay-compet...
personal update: switched back from wireless to a wired (cable) keyboard. wireless latency/dropouts were driving me insane
"Museum exhibit" is an immersive, architectural medium. Most art in museums isn't native to this medium. It's transplanted via hermetic enclosures: frames on walls, plexiglass boxes on pedestals. "Installation art" really just means art meant for this medium, art that knows it's in a museum.
Great exhibition "over the fence" in Zeitgeschichliches Forum Leipzig about gardening culture. community gardening, guerilla gardening... We can learn a lot for digital gardening. @hdg.de
The live recording of all the performances from the Haiku Fest is now available on Bandcamp. Free download. Thanks to @zenbytes.bsky.social @naviarrecords.bsky.social for organizing.

Catalyze Open Science panel today. Drafting a bio made me realize: the most interesting recent work isn't renate.chat or AIDLE — it's two frameworks for staying human in the agentic loop: author-preservation (tilde.cards, tilde.style, trespass.ing) + champion briefing (journal → Semble → agents).
Ronen Tamari@ronentk.me · 2mo agoReminder - happening tomorrow! Based on the pre-call prep - this should be a fun discussion, with lots of #ATScience topics :)

Ronen Tamari@ronentk.me · 2mo agoExcited to invite you to a panel I'll be on next week w/ @richardsever.bsky.social @joelchan86.bsky.social! We’ll discuss the future of open-access, new modular research tools (eg @discoursegraphs.bsky.social) and the role of social media in scientific discourse (@cosmik.network @atproto.science ..)

Torsten Goerke@tgoerke.bsky.social · 2mo agoI’ve been toying with the idea of ‘protocols for music publishers’ for months; perhaps it’s too late for the Acoustic Player now. @protocolsforpublishers.com @atproto.music @acousticplayermag 😢
I’ve just opened Acoustic Player 3-2026 and read in the editorial that I’m holding the penultimate issue of the magazine. Editor-in-chief Andreas Schulz’s mindset hack: “All’s well that ends well.”
Tired: "Go to bed!" Wired: "I’m taking steps to address this."

Thank you so much @ronentk.me for the wonderful report on ATScience. The day was an absolute blast for me, and I’d like to thank every single member of the organizing team for this experience.
ATProto Science@atproto.science · 2mo agoVery excited to share our (long overdue) writeup from ATScience 2026 in Vancouver! Tagging our long list of credits/mentions in the thread - huge thanks to everyone who made this happen!
deadmau5 is vibecoding his own DJ workstation. I think we're about to see a renaissance in creative tools. Artists are no longer bottlenecked by programmers. They can create their own tools. www.youtube.com/watch?v=fRo8...

Google Open Source@opensource.google · 2mo agoThere's nothing quite like a community of local developers for coming up with ideas and keeping everyone inspired. So we've created a starter pack for local meetups of the AT proto community. We've probably missed some, so let us know. go.bsky.app/KcTq2US
