Theo Jansen has been constructing large-scale, kinetic beings powered entirely by wind since 1990. Based on a planar leg mechanism known as Jansen's linkage, you can often see them waddle, wriggle, or slither across a Dutch beaches

Innovation Doesn’t Arrive. It Evolves. Some inventions feel like they escape the rules of reality. Theo Jansen’s Strandbeests are one of them. Since 1990, the Dutch artist has been building wind-powered creatures that walk across beaches. No motors. No electronics. Just tubes, physics, and a wild imagination. They look alive. And they remind us how close art and engineering really are. 👉 Here’s something most people don’t know: Jansen uses a form of “evolution” to design them. He creates many variations, tests them on the beach, keeps what works, and removes what doesn’t. Each generation gets stronger. More adapted to the wind. It’s natural selection… built by hand. For me, his work shows where the future is going: creative design, engineering, and sustainability merging into one. #kineticart #engineeringdesign #innovation #sustainablefuture #artandtechnology

Scripted dialogue also known as “barks” in game dev has been the way NPCs utter dialogues in virtual worlds. Now with AI-powered characters, these characters can have a generated conversation based on environment cues, character backgrounds, or even prompted topics.

The infrastructure for working with video data at scale barely exists. Grass Video Search is our first step in changing that. You can now find anything in a video based on the contents of its frames, not just transcripts or tags. Over the last several months, the Grass Foundation has quietly assembled one of the largest video datasets in history: over a billion videos from across the public web, and is segmenting them by scene with VLM annotations of keyframes. This dataset is now searchable, so you can find the exact moment a visual, pattern, or concept appears. Curation has always been the bottleneck in video analysis. We built a system that automates it. This is just the beginning. Over 4 billion additional videos are queued for processing, and the index is growing daily. We’re opening access to a limited set of collaborators. If you’re a researcher, journalist, or nonprofit working with video, archives, or large-scale analysis, we’d love to hear from you.

Theo Von reveals he was put on antidepressants after “a tough day at school” and has NEVER been able to get off them since. THEO: “That shit makes you feel dead, man.” ROGAN: “So why did you take them in the first place?” THEO: “Cause I was in a bad relationship 20 years ago, and I was having a tough day at school, and they f*cking gave them to me, and then I never got off.” Theo’s experience is not uncommon. A 2019 meta-analysis revealed that 56% of people experience withdrawal symptoms when trying to quit antidepressants. Of those who experienced withdrawal symptoms, nearly half (46%) described them as “severe.” Before you get placed on the antidepressant hamster wheel like Theo Von did, consider trying exercise instead. Large-scale meta-analyses show that physical exercise is about 1.5 times more effective than antidepressants for depression.

These women are getting called out as they walked away from their new BMW by a customer at Target. The woman warns other customers not to give them money as the women tell the children to call her names. The women often beg for money or other items so they can return it for cash. Would you be angry if you fell for this and you see them leave in a $70k car after you spend your last $30 on them?

Mendocino Engine. The Mendocino engine is an electric motor that can be powered by any type of light, be it sunlight, moonlight, or even artificial light. It features a magnetically levitated rotor, almost completely eliminating friction. Its primary application so far has been for technology demonstration purposes only; it is said to be incapable of generating power on a large scale and is kept in plain sight, hidden under the label of a toy. Movement generates energy, right? Free Energy.

This technology has me curious. It's called Wind Sail Propulsion. It's still in the 1.0 stages IMO. It's kind of interesting though and could potential save on fuel costs to get things across the ocean. It harnesses wind energy to assist or, in some cases, serve as the primary means of propelling ships. Another technology is the Flettner rotor, which uses the Magnus effect—created by spinning vertical cylinders in a wind stream—to generate forward thrust. Unlike sails, the rotor is powered by its own motor, allowing it to generate propulsion even when wind direction is unfavorable. Do you see potential for this kind of technology? What kinds of potential problems could arise? 🤨

Do you or your kids own an electric motorcycle, also known as an e-dirt bike? These vehicles are NOT street legal. We’ve received reports of youth riding them on public roads, often in a dangerous manner that puts themselves and others at risk. Enforcement has been stepped up, and parents may also face fines if their children are found operating these vehicles unlawfully.

“Our compute nodes don’t run a full copy of the models we train on IOTA. They actually run a small sliver of the model. This means you can train really large frontier sized models using very small building blocks”. CTO crux unpacks how IOTA ・ SN9’s model parallel architecture allows us to train at scale by splitting our models across multiple machines, and then sewing them together. This is core to SN9’s architecture. See the full Eye On A.I. podcast below.

🔥 NVIDIA GTC 2026: The Vera Rubin platform just dropped, introducing 10x inference throughput per watt, at 1/10th the cost per token vs. Blackwell. Jensen Huang called it: every company will now run a "token factory." Here's the thing: Aethir has been running distributed token factories since day one, with nearly 440,000+ GPU containers across 94 countries, delivering 1.5B+ compute hours to enterprises, powered by ATH. When the world's most powerful AI chips land, you need a cloud that can actually deploy them at scale, without the centralized cloud limitations and bottlenecks. That's Aethir’s advantage over centralized compute providers. ⚡

“Depression doesn’t mean you’re broken. It literally means you had to push your feelings down.” Gabor Maté explained it powerfully on Theo Von’s podcast. As a child, if your anger, grief, or fear wasn’t allowed or validated by your parents, you learned to suppress it to stay connected to them. Decades later, that suppressed emotion shows up as depression. He’s taken antidepressants himself and says they can help short-term, but they don’t fix the underlying wound. Large-scale studies on Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) show a clear dose-response relationship: the more childhood emotional suppression or invalidation, the higher the risk of adult depression. Preventing ACEs could reduce adult depression cases by up to 44–78%, according to CDC-linked research. Real healing often begins when we stop managing symptoms and start addressing the emotions we were never allowed to feel. What’s one emotion you learned to push down growing up that might still show up today?

A video has just been released by those aligned with Hamas, claiming that this footage was taken from a body cam on one of the Hamas attackers at the music festival in Israel. As you can see, the shooter shoots into just about each and every porta potty, trying to end the lives of anyone who may be hiding. This video has not been confirmed by the IDF or anyone within Israel. This is pure evil.

🇮🇳 A video has surfaced showing a large group of Indian nationals crossing into the USA 🇺🇸 From 2020 to 2026, there has been a sharp rise in Indians fleeing their country, and piling into White countries as "asylum" Many of them are guided by smuggling networks known as "donkey flights," which arrange long, multi-country journeys before reaching the southern border. This trend has drawn attention since the number of Indians apprehended at the southern border has grown from only about 1,000 in 2020, to over 40,000 in 2023 (and contining to rise). This makes Indians one of the fastest-growing migrant groups arriving through irregular crossings. Prepare for a lot more piles of poop in your local parks, beaches, and lakes. (And this is not a pointed insult - public defecation is a completely normal part of Indian culture).

The moment the results were declared, Bengal’s business community has been feeling absolutely delighted. Among them, the biggest industrialist Sanjiv Goenka must have been the happiest. Over the years, he has been seen as a vocal supporter of BJP and Narendra Modi, a stance that, in a politically charged environment, has inevitably drawn scrutiny. Especially from the TMC! In India’s federal structure, businesses often have to navigate complex relationships with state governments, regardless of political alignment. For large conglomerates operating across sectors, maintaining this balance is less a choice and more a necessity, unfortunately. What often gets overlooked in the narrative, however, is the sheer scale of the RP-Sanjiv Goenka Group’s investments outside West Bengal, in NDA rules states. The group currently has a project pipeline of nearly ₹72,000 crore under implementation across states like Odisha, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Gujarat, and Andhra Pradesh, aligned with India’s renewable energy ambitions. Which raises an important question: why is Goenka still largely perceived as a “Bengal-only” industrialist? West Bengal has, for decades, grappled with the challenge of attracting large-scale industrial investment. The widely discussed Singur Tata Nano controversy involving Tata Motors became emblematic of these concerns, shaping investor sentiment for years. Since then, perceptions around ease of doing business in the state have remained a topic of debate. I’m sure Goenka, along with many industrialists, must be breathing a sigh of relief now that the BJP is in power in the state. The years of extortion money taken from them as part of 'electoral bonds' will finally end and we will finally get to see the golden phase of West Bengal.

Major wind turbine manufacturers have been hit by an asbestos scandal. At Australia's $4 billion Golden Plains wind farm, testing on turbines has come back positive. Units are now quarantined and the manufacturer is launching global checks across its supply chain. This follows the asbestos found at a number of Chinese turbine manufacturers. Serious environmental concerns are now mounting. Wind blades can't be recycled, not economically or at scale. So tens of thousands of tons of blades are dumped every year, buried in pits with endless more coming as first-generation turbines hit their end of life, which is typically just 15 years. An industry sold as clean is leaving mountains of toxic waste that can't be recycled.
