      • AI In KDE and Linux: Can We Stop It? Should We?

        The second half of our interview with Nate Graham that covers the policies and costs of AI in KDE. According to Nate, and we tend to agree, setting up policies that are unenforceable will simply encourage those that want to circumvent the policy to do so, and just not tell anybody. How hard is it to remove a CLAUDE md file anyway?

        But of course, there's only so much you can lament AI and LLM's incursion into everything Linux, so we end up getting back on how KDE Linux works with the update deltas, the fact that we've been daily driving it for months (at least Dan has!), easy rollbacks, full disk encryption's future, and the road to getting it on real hardware off the shelf.

        We've asked Nate to come back again sometime to give us more updates on KDE and KDE Linux, so keep an eye out for that!

        • Compromised antenna at MK81fm

          This is a short video showing the QMX connected to an EFHW antenna was deployed between two structures at MK81fm. It was later connected an iPhone for FT8 operations. This was part of an attempt to test a back-pack QRP field kit. There is a write-up describing the effort for a v1 for a back-pack and more details about this field trip on my blog.

        • The god damn particle III
          The God Damn Particle — Part III

          In 2013, François Englert and Peter Higgs received the Nobel Prize in

          Physics for the Anderson–Brout–Englert–Higgs–Guralnik–Hagen–Kibble
          mechanism. As Steven Weinberg put it, "More people deserve the Nobel
          Prize than get it."

          Finding the Higgs particle became one of the largest and most expensive

          experiments humankind has ever undertaken.

          In this third and final part of the presentation, I focus on how Higgs

          particles are created at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), and how they
          are detected.

          mechanism. As Steven Weinberg put it, "More people deserve the Nobel
          Prize than get it."

          The discovery of the Higgs mechanism was driven by the desire to unify

          two fundamentally different forces of nature — the electromagnetic force
          and the weak nuclear force — which act over very different ranges.
          Finding the Higgs particle became one of the largest and most expensive
          experiments humankind has ever undertaken.

          This is the second of a three-part presentation, continuing from Part I.

          Finding the Higgs particle became one of the largest and most expensive
          experiments humankind has ever undertaken.

          In this first of a three-part presentation, I describe how the presence

          of the Higgs field hides the fundamental similarity between the
          electromagnetic and weak forces, and explain why such a particle must
          exist in our description of the fundamental laws of nature.
