Provenance has always been the quiet backbone of research. AI agents add new challenges: can you still retrace, a year later, what a human did and what an agent did? www.researchspace.com/blog/researc...
Research documentation in the age of AI
A personal reflection on AI, RSpace, and how we can start addressing provenance for AI agents as collaborators in research.

Your large datasets don't need to live inside your notebook. RSpace integrates files on your institutional file storage solution into your research documentation and makes them available when needed. Read our new guide for efficiently using your organisation's file stores: buff.ly/P33XpfI
Connecting RSpace to Institutional File Stores
File store integration requires the netfilestores.enabled deployment property set to true. Contact your system administrator or RSpace support if this option is not available on your instance. Overvi…

Europa hat bereits alles, was es braucht für Autonomie und Klimaschutz. Solarkraft im Süden, Windkraft im Norden, Wasserspeicher in den Alpen und Skandinavien, Kavernenspeicher in Mitteleuropa. Nur müssen wir es als EIN System begreifen. Beispiel hier: www.pv-magazine.com/2026/05/16/...
Spain, Denmark could develop European green hydrogen corridor for €2/kg by combining solar and offshore wind
The complementarity between Spanish photovoltaics and Danish offshore wind power could underpin a European green hydrogen market by enabling renewable hydrogen production and exports at costs close to €2/kg.

Meta adding face recognition technology to its smart glasses would violate the privacy rights of millions of people and cost the company billions of dollars legal battles. It should abandon its plans. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...
Seven Billion Reasons for Facebook to Abandon its Face Recognition
Meta’s analysis that it can avoid scrutiny by releasing a privacy invasive product during a time of political crisis is craven and morally bankrupt. It is also dead wrong.
