#hypergrid memories of #DiscoveryGrid, which is closing after almost 9 years. Why is it closing? And what were the highlights?


#MorningAll & #TZAG G’day Squirrel Fans, hope I find you bright eyed & bushy tailed!

Happy Tuesday to those who celebrate!
I’m a bit disorganised today so absolutely anything could happen!

Gotta go sort out chores so catch you lovely lot up later!

Have a cracking day #Today & remember #RuleNo1: Don’t let ‘em Cash-ew ! 😊🫶🐿️🖖

@justafrog That really wasn’t the orifice I was thinking of 😆

But 10/10 for trying 😆

#Neuromorphic #computing just got more accessible! Our work on a Neuromorphic Intermediate Representation (NIR) is out in @SpringerNature Communications. We demonstrate interoperability with 11 platforms. And more to come!

nature.com/articles/s41467-024…

NIR is a data format that is understood by 7 software libraries and 4 hardware platforms. Before NIR, models from one framework could not transfer to another. Now, we can develop software and hardware independently.

A 🧵 1/3

Trump has succeeded in deflecting the news narrative away from his poor debate performance by the Springfield idiocy. Also deflecting the news away from Kamalanomics!

Thank you. I keep being told that Vice President Harris has no economic policy. Now I have a response I can cite.

Oh, this is very nice ! May be a good inspiration for Esrolia (in the fantasy universe of #Glorantha).

We're happy to release Ethersync v0.4.0! 🍰

It comes with a big new feature: If you add or remove files to a shared project, those changes will be synced to other peers!

Also, if you make changes to files with external tools (like "echo foo >> file"), that change will be sent to other peers, which feels pretty cool!

This comes with a caveat – changes done with external tools *might* be overwritten by a concurrent edit before they're synced out.

Documentation here: ethersync.github.io/ethersync/…

We also made it easier for you to try Ethersync:

1. Our release pages now contain statically compiled binaries for Linux and macOS! github.com/ethersync/ethersync…

2. There's a new AUR package "ethersync-bin", which just installs that binary, without compiling it from scratch.

3. And if you're a Rust developer, you might enjoy just doing a "cargo install ethersync", to install our newly published binary crate!

See this page for more installation instructions: ethersync.github.io/ethersync/…

Watching the recorded presentation about Mastodon adoption by German public broadcaster ARD and NDR from #berlinfediday, by @millerntorpirat

Quite interesting. A very similar story as we have heard from many other publishers and media orgs: they have far fewer followers in the Fediverse than Twitter etc., but engagements per follower is 10x that, and the conversations are of far higher quality.
