Artemis II Lunar Flyby - NASA The first flyby images of the Moon captured by NASA’s Artemis II astronauts during their historic test flight reveal regions of the Moon's far side, as well as an in-space solar eclipse. Released... NASA · nasa.gov [1] One of the biggest scientific achievement of our lifetime happened this week. I will forever remember sitting in a Culvers in between theater builds looking through these photos as they came live, looking at them in awe. [2] One of the most famous images from the shoot “Setting Earth” References: [1]: https://www.nasa.gov/gallery/lunar-flyby/ [2]: https://dropper.waylonwalker.com/file/9987010a-a448-472d-9c60-2831b61a1d3a.webp

- What an amazing set of photos created by the Artemis II crew accompanying a fantastic breakdown by Hank Green. [1] I like this one, as its probably one of the ones not shred a ton Whole gallery is worth looking at https://www.nasa.gov/gallery/lunar-flyby/ References: [1]: https://dropper.waylonwalker.com/file/0b53a4ed-924e-42b5-84f4-51c189f60801.webp

- A really interesting long form interview with @simonwillison [1]. If you follow him closely most of it is probably not new, but I found some interesting nuggets. Simon is writing most of his code from his phone these days using anthropic hosted platform. He mentioned that a lot of security risks go away when you don’t put secrets on the platform and you let them take the risk of running ai written code with ai chosen supply chain. He talked about the Pelican Riding a Bike benchmark for quite awhile. He was surprised at how well of a proxy it is for how capable a model is at just about everything. He also said that when he runs the benchmark he also runs half a dozen others that he’s never talked about so that He could see if they were to train a model specific to his benchmark he could catch them, but it seems they had caught on and if they were they seem that they would already be doing it on all of his others anyways. TDD is incredibly boring for humans, it strips so much creativity and joy from the process. Who cares if agents are bored they do better when doing TDD. References: [1]: https://simonwillison.net

- THIS is the future of homelab [1], excited to see someone who knows so much more about hardware than I do get excited about this. [2] References: [1]: /homelab/ [2]: https://dropper.waylonwalker.com/file/f69c86b9-ab79-46ad-9ef0-4d794544e943.webp

Laurie Voss (@seldo.com) Project Glasswing is a glimpse at an oncoming future in which agents do things humans could never have accomplished and the results are handled by other agents faster than humans could react and we...

BumpMesh by CNC Kitchen Add displacement textures to STL, OBJ, and 3MF models directly in your browser. Preview, mask, bake, and export printable textured meshes locally. BumpMesh · bumpmesh.com [1] Absolutely sick texture app from cnc kitchen. Like him I’ve spent a bunch of time attempting and failing to learn blender, I’m so glad someone else vibe coded out such a good app that can just add texture to stls with basic masks and is the very basics of what you would want to add to 3d prints to make them interesting, I’m excited to use this for some real projects.
