Since mid-January, this Orange Pi Zero 3 has been searching for binary radio pulsars in Arecibo data via Einstein@Home. ~42k BOINC credits so far. ARM devices get BRP workunits keeping Arecibo's legacy alive, one work unit at a time. Passively cooled, zero maintenance.

✅ Got PyTorch XPU running on my Intel Arc A770 on Fedora 43. The key missing piece: you need both oneapi-level-zero (loader) AND intel-compute-runtime (driver) from the Fedora repos, plus source oneAPI's setvars.sh before launching Python. #PyTorch #IntelArc #Linux #Fedora #MachineLearning

It's frustrating that we are getting technologies that really will transform our lives, and we should be thinking carefully about what that means, but the possibility of thoughtful discussion is being squelched by a stream of soul-crushing visions and wild hyperbole coming from Silicon Valley.

Co-hosting this session at #EGU2026 and we're looking for YOUR research! 🌱

Air pollutants, biodiversity loss, and climate stress - the pressures on forests have changed. Long-term measurements are crucial for identifying impacts at an early stage. They are a basis for forest management and environmental policy. @waldwissen.bsky.social: www.waldwissen.net/en/technique...

#FWF Präsident Christof Gattringer befürchtet starke Budgeteinsparungen für #Grundlagenforschung in Österreich: 800 Arbeitsplätze könnten durch Kürzungen wegfallen. Die Unis würden dadurch weiter an Boden bei der Spitzenforschung verlieren. via @derstandard.at 👉 www.derstandard.at/story/300000...

📢 The Federal Council plans to reduce the SNSF's budget by 270 million Swiss francs. The SNSF rejects these cuts. However, in order to be prepared, it has decided to cut costs in consultation with all partners. ➡️https://sohub.io/n2b1 #research #science #CHParl

Last Saturday, around 250 people gained an in-depth insight into afforestation and other #research work at #Stillberg in #Davos, where the #SLF and @wslresearch.bsky.social planted 92'000 trees 50 years ago.

In cellular automata, simple rules create elaborate structures. Now researchers are working backward — starting with the result to learn the rules behind it. @georgemusser.com, SFI’s 2025 Journalism Fellow, explores how this could reshape computation and self-organization in Quanta:

@clechartre.bsky.social reimplemented #BIOME4 into a modular, high-performance #Julia version, enabling 1 km vegetation modeling 🌱 and integration of #CHELSA climate datasets. 🌦️ We can now simulate biome patterns across complex terrains ⛰️ and define biome boundaries with greater accuracy. 🎯
