Today is OpenStack's 15th birthday! What an honor to be part of this community from the beginning. I've met so many friends all over the world and have enjoyed seeing others fall in love with open source and make careers and companies out of it, in OpenStack & beyond! To 15 more!

Success, Open Source and You: Maximising the impact of your open-source contributions The CERN Open Source Program Office (OSPO) invites you to a lecture from Dr. Dawn Foster (Director of Data Science, CHAOSS project) on the topic of “Making the most of your open source contributions”....

Arne talked about that in one of the CERN presentations 😁 indico.cern.ch/event/150867...

One of the coolest experiences of my life! And they run a lot of OpenStack to process the insane amounts of data the experiments produce

Are we joy maxing?

OK! My Google colleague Thang Luong shared some exciting updates about AlphaGeometry2!

AG2 now has surpassed the average gold-medalist in solving Olympiad geometry problems, w/ a solve rate of 84% compared to 54% previously!

📢 Today we're releasing a new highly detailed dataset for video understanding: HD-EPIC

arxiv.org/abs/2502.04144

hd-epic.github.io

What makes the dataset unique is the vast detail contained in the annotations with 263 annotations per minute over 41 hours of video.

Another seed could be a wikipedia style data curation effort.

In parallel, research data-efficient models that can be trained on 100M tokens. This is comparable to both what humans need to develop speech and to wikipedia, proving that it's possible to curate this amount of data as a community.

First day at FOSDEM and I’m loving it. So much open source and interesting people. Just met a guy who wrote code for F1 to make the cars faster including physics simulation models for designing carbon fiber spoilers and better gear efficiency.

yes!

My first FOSDEM

I’d like to learn more about Merriam and Webster. What was that partnership like? I wonder if they ever fought, battled, combatted, wrestled, dueled, or skirmished?

I used the DeepSeek R1 reasoning model to prepare for a new course proposal. These screenshots show with and without the "DeepThink" option turned on--strikingly different. R1 does a lot more synthesis and offers clearer suggestions. It also accepts pdf files, o1 doesn't. Crazy this is open source.

it really tied the room together

I was interviewed at CES this morning. We mentioned that consumers will decide whether they want to be on a platform that is “unfiltered free speech “ or “ moderated”. I mentioned that I loved @bsky.app , and spontaneously people started clapping 🔥.

Does anyone have a contact for Ann ? Would love to discuss with her the possibility of partnering with her to publish her cartoons exclusively on @bluesky
