Iowa farmers are having a tough time keeping ahead... of the weeds between the rain and the wind. This field (seed corn history) is waiting for dry enough conditions to spray. Some of these waterhemp are not terribly tall but have upward of 150 leaves and significant branching.show more

POV: Dudes finally deciding Low Vis Armor + Chest... Rigs wasn't just a GWOT vibe. - New video on YouTube going over the merits of this system and why it's becoming our favorite method of building "loadouts" for quickly gearing up with various weapons platforms. - #dirtycivilianshow more

High reps don't build muscle better than low reps.... They just make you tired faster, which feels like you worked harder, which your brain interprets as "this must be working." Meanwhile low rep training: - Generates more mechanical tension - Causes less systemic fatigue - Allows better recovery between sessions - Permits progressive overload more reliably But it doesn't make you feel destroyed. So we assume it's insufficient and add 12 more sets of cable work to "finish the muscle."show more

Self-Toss Short Hop Drill One of the best ways... to develop game-ready hands in a small space. Work ground balls at you, declared backhands, and glove-side picks with both 1-hop and 2-hop variations. Keys: 1. Start low, stay low, move low. 2. Be on time to the short hop. 3. Let your feet create the hop you want. If you’re late, you’ll get an in-between hop. Really late? A big hop. Neither is the goal. Elite defenders hunt the short hop. Simple setup. Tons of reps. Big-time transfer to the game.show more

Sukhbir Badal said yesterday that he was not afraid... to face the SIT. Yet today, when it was time to appear, he was absent. The reason is the behind-the-scenes alliance between the BJP and the Badals: the BJP will help Sukhbir Singh Badal get a clean chit in exchange for the Akalis backing the three black farm laws that cost 750 farmers their lives. This political bargain between the BJP and the Badals comes at the cost of Punjab’s and its farmers' interests.show more

Another 360 degrees Light novel book that can turn... Pages in #Live2D ! It's the usual cube deformer I make, but it's top-down and theres a hella lot of glue in between. I also spent quite some time designing a face Light novel cover for it :D #Live2DWIPshow more

To finish the series: - Deterministic chain-seeded genetic computation.... We ran a chain-seeded genetic optimiser for 32 generations and proved every single step in zero-knowledge, then folded all 32 proofs into one. The whole lineage verifies on Kaspa in a single transaction, post-quantum. You can open the tx and check it yourself. What it is: a tiny program, an evolutionary search over a 16-value genome , that mutates and selects for a lower-cost circuit design, seeded by the Kaspa chain. Over 32 generations it drove its target circuit's scored constraint count down (best target ~72 → ~50; trending down, though it's a sawtooth it rotates through three circuit types). The part that matters: every one of those 32 steps ran inside a zero-knowledge VM and was proven correct a step that didn't compute correctly simply won't verify. Then all 32 step-proofs were folded into ONE. That proof is 222 KB exactly the size of a single step, and it stays that size no matter how many generations you add. (The catch, stated plainly: folding more generations costs the prover more time; only the final proof size is constant.) Kaspa verified the entire 32-generation lineage in one transaction: 7504fa32f74aa028301290299276a707cf98ffc2766b1be0daed4c5c41883f15. Flip a single byte of the proof and the network rejects it, we tried; it's rejected. And the verification path is post-quantum: hash-based the whole way (FRI/Poseidon2 + SHA-256), no elliptic curves or pairings anywhere nothing Shor's algorithm targets.* What this is and isn't: It's a feasibility experiment on testnet. It's deterministic, chain-seeded genetic computation not AI, not intelligence. We drive each step and proved a fixed lineage we chose; it does not yet run itself on-chain (that's the next build). The core, though, is real and checkable: a program's entire computational lineage 32 generations proven correct, post-quantum, verified by Kaspa in a single shot. *STARK security rests on hash assumptions plus the Fiat-Shamir heuristic, not on any pre-quantum hardness.show more

Ever heard of a Variable Stator Vane systems in... Jet Engines ? It's one of the least visible mechanisms inside a modern jet engine, yet one of the reasons engines like the Pratt & Whitney engines achieve 15-20% lower fuel burn than previous generations. A hydraulically actuated ring rotates entire rows of compressor vanes by tiny fractions of a degree, continuously reshaping airflow to prevent compressor stall as the engine transitions from idle to full thrust. The complete modern variable stator vane control system is estimated to cost on the order of $200,000-$450,000 per engine. Without this hidden mechanism, modern high-pressure compressors operating above 40:1 pressure ratios simply wouldn't remain stable. Video :- Aircraft Technicalshow more

CATCH A DESIGN PROBLEM ON AN EMPTY LOT, IT'S... FREE. CATCH IT AFTER FRAMING, IT'S A CHANGE ORDER. This is a phone camera on an empty yard, AR-mapping the actual house frame onto real ground, full scale, before anything gets built. WITHOUT AR WALKTHROUGH: Design issue caught during or after framing. Cost impact: 5-40% of project budget, per construction cost-overrun research. On a $450,000 build, even the low end of that range is $22,500 in avoidable overruns. WITH AR WALKTHROUGH: Design issue caught on the empty lot. Cost impact: a five-minute walk and an edit to the plan, before anything's actually built. That gap is the entire pitch. Not a fancier rendering, a cheaper mistake. This clip shows a house before it exists. The article below covers the flip side, scanning a space that already exists and turning it into something anyone can walk through from a phone, no headset needed.show more

THE ETHEREUM SHAKEOUT ALREADY HAPPENED. MOST PEOPLE SOLD INTO... IT. Four months of accumulation between $1,745 and $2,500. Then June broke it down to $1,520, the manipulation leg that clears out everyone who bought the range. Price is back above it at $1,860. That's the expansion phase starting, not another breakdown. I still expect one more dip toward the range low first. That's the retest, not the reversal. After that, it's go time. A weekly close below $1,550 and I'm wrong.show more

So, today we have fast SDF sculpting + real-time... AI in Unbound Loop. Old news🥱 Coming up next: -quad-view generation from sculpted geometry -image tweaks via nano🍌 -tripo HD & Low-Poly 3D generation There's more in the upcoming release, but these three deserve a closer look: Quad-View Generation Most platforms offer some version of this, but Loop has a key advantage, your sculpted model is the reference. That means less guessing from the generator. Though it’s not 100% foolproof, like any AI I guess? (I should stop stating the obvious every time). Image Tweaks via Chat Select any generated image and ask for fixes or changes in real time. Works great on unintended quad-view hallucinations, but also handy for quick iterations. Swapping colors, tweaking details, removing elements. Tripo 3D generator Especially the low-poly model, it consistently delivered fantastic game-ready topology when we tried it with our real-time AI output. And it's super fast.show more
