Felicitas Pojtinger @felicitas.pojtinger.com · 20hUnlike DS 4.1 Flash Mistral seems deeply tied up with OFAC sanctions encumbered hardware (and financing) though which is unfortunate 000
Felicitas Pojtinger @felicitas.pojtinger.com · 20hNew Mistral open-weight model looks dope. Basically European DS 4.1 Flash? Output speed is a tad slower than DS 4.1 Flash (I wonder if one could imply some of the KV cache hacks from DS to speed things up?) but it looks really good 100

Felicitas Pojtinger @felicitas.pojtinger.com · 05/10/2026DS4.1 Flash w/ DSH absolutely rocks for fixing this kind of stuff btw. Can drive the phone via ADB too 100
Felicitas Pojtinger @felicitas.pojtinger.com · 05/10/2026> eUICC info: { Available memory in bytes:-1 } Great. Looks like my GrapheneOS phone needs an incredibly hacky fix ( spwoodcock.dev/blog/2026-08-05-grap… ) for eSIM to work. Not their fault, it's Google's fault, but damn it. 120

Felicitas Pojtinger @felicitas.pojtinger.com · 03/10/2026Honestly, the only additional paragraph I'd add to the EU AI act at this point is something along the lines of "if a model is trained on the commons, then it should itself be placed into the commons, and so should be all of the output created with it" 000
Felicitas Pojtinger @felicitas.pojtinger.com · 03/10/2026Incredibly impressed with the battery life on my new personal laptop. It's a last-gen Intel chip so I wasn't expecting much, but damn I can basically skip my charger on intercontinental flights now! That's so cool! 010

Yann LeCun dismisses fears of AI extinction and recent hacks at OpenAI and Anthropic, arguing that security breaches comes from poor system design, leaky sandboxes, and a lack of basic cybersecurity in AI labs, not out-of-control AI. These AI are doing as told by these AI labs https://fortune.com/2026/10/01/yann-lecun-anthropic-ceo-dario-amodei-deluded-crazy-cybersecurity/ Finally somebody said it what I was saying about this nonsense 000

Felicitas Pojtinger @felicitas.pojtinger.com · 25/09/2026gultsch.de/posts/breaking-up-with-g… State funding works.gultsch.deBreaking Up with Google Play: Why Conversations Is Now FreeConversations, my federated instant messaging client for Android, started out as many traditional open-source projects do: as an attempt to scratch my own itch. Development started in January 2014 in my student dormitory, and within weeks I started dogfooding and using the client as the primary means of communicating with my friends. However, when it came to releasing the app to the public on March 24, 2014—exactly twelve and a half years ago today—it was immediately clear to me that I would at least try to turn my open-source project into a business. While I didn’t invent the business model of making the source code publicly available but charging for the convenience of a compiled binary, it was certainly unusual in 2014. 000
