EXCELLENTE NOUVELLE. La Commission européenne a donné mercredi son feu vert à la France, l'Allemagne, l'Italie et les Pays-Bas pour créer une organisation commune visant à développer des alternatives open source dans l'IA, le cloud, la cybersécurité et... les réseaux sociaux !!!

Open Printer Finally, an open hardware printer you can actually understand, repair, and upgrade

Ouais c'est la remarque que j'allais faire. C'est fou...

👩‍🔬J'ai commencé un kit de démarrage "chercheuses en France" go.bsky.app/TBEzKC #FemmesEnScience

J'ai besoin de votre aide pour le remplir et donner de la visibilité aux chercheuses que vous connaissez et qui sont sur Bluesky !
▶️Taguez celles que vous connaissez, je les ajoute !

uv is the best thing to happen to the Python ecosystem in a decade - Blog - Dr. Emily L. Hunt Released in 2024, uv is hands-down the best tool for managing Python installations and dependencies. Here's why.

uv makes installing and using Python *so* easy! It works on pretty much any computer and it's lightning fast. 🔭☄️ #astrocode

If you're still using conda, pyenv, or... basically any other tool, then I can *highly* recommend switching:

My department (Computer science) is recruiting a postdoc (18 months) on any topics related to trust and AI (could be a philosophical project or a more empirically minded one). Belgian postdoc salaries are competitive. To apply: jobs.unamur.be/emploi.2025-...

Screenshot from the Wikipedia page "False or misleading statements by Donald Trump" with two cards on top stating: It has been suggested that this article be split out into articles titled False or misleading statements by Donald Trump (first term), False or misleading statements by Donald Trump (between terms) and False or misleading statements by Donald Trump (second term). (Discuss) (October 2025) This article may be too long to read and navigate comfortably. Consider splitting content into sub-articles, condensing it, or adding subheadings. Please discuss this issue on the article's talk page. (September 2024)

The Wikipedia page about "False or misleading statements by Donald Trump" is so long that Wikipedia contributors are discussing to split it for legibility.

This is hilarious and very sad at the same time.

Je lis de plus en plus de trucs sur la domination adulte (3 bouquins vont paraître cet automne (images). Et je pense aux espaces publics où rien n'est prévu pour accueillir et occuper les enfants (dans certains pays, les restos sans coin enfant avec des jouets c'est rare... nous c'est l'exception)

"Leveraging Geometric Insights in Hyperbolic Triplet Loss for Improved Recommendations" poster

Let's start sharing a few posters/papers I found interesting at #RecSys this year.

1. Leveraging Geometric Insights in Hyperbolic Triplet Loss for Improved Recommendations

Very interesting. Some further work needed to convince me 100%, like a Figure 2 but for the original Euclidian Triplet Loss.

Technically true, it needs to be non-zero.

Un graphique affichant avec une courbe bleue l'évolution, à chaque minute, du nombre de signatures affiché sur le site, sur une période de nuit. Une seconde courbe rouge est derrière, quasi identique, à un détail près : 4 pics de 50 signatures, qui correspondent aux moments où j'ai simulé des signatures. C'est ce qui aurait dû apparaître si le compteur n'était pas truqué.

Les 1,8 millions de signatures de la pétition de Philippe de Villiers contre l'immigration sont complètement bidons, et je peux le prouver.

Mais il y a plus intéressant, ce qu'il y a derrière, à savoir une opération de l'empire Bolloré. Un thread 🧵⤵️ https://t.co/hHF2dUqi8Z

Took less than 10 minutes (on the actual clock) including downloading the original image and font. No gen AI required. 100% human work.

Looks promising. I will try it when the beta releases.

Il manque peut être un aspect qualité/entretient de la chaussé. Un sol mou et boueux, des feuilles glissantes, des racines d'arbres qui dépassent de plusieurs centimètres, des trous, ...
Ça devrait faire baisser la note.

Today I learned that the continuous-time limit of Nesterov's accelerated gradient is Bessel's differential equation, which can be solved analytically. That's unexpectedly a beautiful result to me...

X’s Altmetric hegemony ‘ending’, with Bluesky ‘clear alternative’ Alternative social media platform matching engagement of Elon Musk’s X in ways that ‘would have seemed unthinkable until recently’, says study

“What is clear is that the Altmetric hegemony of X may have come to an end, as for the first time there is a clear alternative in @bsky.app, which even matches user engagement in ways that would have seemed unthinkable until recently."
