Ingenieurwesen ist die Kunst, Komplexität zu verfeinern, indem das Unnötige weggelassen wird.

This is what real VC financing does for hardware startups. In Europe this one would still be stuck in bank loan paperwork.
Gecko Robotics' inspection systems are gaining traction with the U.S. Navy. Their 5 year contract ceiling has been expanded from $71M to $300M. Earlier this month, Gecko also partnered with Anduril on robotic inspection and quality assurance for submarine manufacturing.

What if robots don't need to see everything they manipulate? Learning to feel the world through their own joints might be one of the more interesting paths toward general-purpose manipulation.
Every robot already carries contact sensors: its own joints. When a robot touches something, its joints drift slightly off their commands, and the encoders pick it up. Legged robots and humanoids already leverage this signal to walk blind - but is it enough for blind precise assembly? We find that it is! Our policies can insert pegs, mesh gears, and thread nuts using only the robot's joint positions - no camera, no tactile, and no object poses. And the peg policy works zero-shot in the real world! 🧵 w/ my amazing co-first author @younghyo_park, and advised by @kushalk_ and @pulkitology.

I think continuous, non-invasive measurement of physiological parameters is exactly the kind of problem flexible electronics should tackle. Real step forward for patient care.
Meet Teresa Gatti ( @trsgtt ), project coordinator for MORPHEUS, a Graphene Flagship project transforming patient monitoring with precise, non-invasive physiological measurements. Find out more: buff.ly/EvDK69C #biomed #2Dmaterials #EUinnovation

Deutschlands Industrie braucht bezahlbaren Strom. Statt die Kosten des Stromsystems ausreichend zu senken, griff die Ampel unter dem Druck der Energiekrise zur Umbuchung: Die EEG-Umlage verschwand ab Juli 2022 von der Stromrechnung. Die Förderung blieb und wurde zur Haushaltssache. 2023 wurden die Übertragungsnetzentgelte mit Bundesmitteln gedämpft, ab 2024 die Stromsteuer für das produzierende Gewerbe gesenkt. Für die Betriebe war die Entlastung dringend nötig. Doch bezahlt wird sie von uns Steuerzahlern. Der Staat hat kein eigenes Geld. Politisch bequem: Auf der Stromrechnung sieht die Belastung kleiner aus. Im Bundeshaushalt verliert sich ihre Sichtbarkeit zwischen Milliardenposten. Wer nur den ausgewiesenen Industriestrompreis betrachtet, sieht deshalb nicht die ganze Rechnung. Für mich ist das Kostenkosmetik. Subventionierte Preise beweisen keine Wettbewerbsfähigkeit. Wir brauchen niedrigere Systemkosten, verlässliche Erzeugung und gesicherte Leistung. Dauerhaftes Umbuchen macht ein teures Stromsystem nicht billiger. Deutschland kann sich seine Stromversorgung nicht schönreden. Die Energiepolitik muss grundlegend neu definiert werden. Die Korrekturen werden drastisch und schmerzhaft sein. #gesicherte #leistung #stromkosten #kosmetik

New photorealistic simulations will help a lot with robotics development; its still hard to develop simulations of your tasks which represent the real world well
🚀 We’re thrilled to announce the release of Lucky Engine 2026.3! "The Matrix for Robots" is now 100% Agentic 🤖✨ To train autonomy, you need a "Matrix" a virtual playground where they can learn before touching the physical world. Today, we are dropping Lucky Engine 2026.3, and we think that it redefines how synthetic environments are built. • Real-time ray tracing & path tracing • 100% agentic (AI agents fully control the engine) • Upload a photo → instant data generation for your policies • Graph-based procedural generation, AI generated determinism • No Blender required. Here’s what’s inside 🧵 👇

SKY-001 is way cheaper than any frontier models by a huge margin as well. Here is the cost for CAD:

George Allen called out an oversimplification in my previous post - and of course he's right! If you don't know him, he's one of the Greats of Geometry, currently working with @nTopology , and previously he worked on Parasolid too! So what does that mean in practice 👇
Given an absolute/linear resolution tolerance > 0, with NURBS curves and surfaces you can APPROXIMATE every other curve and surface to that tolerance. István can only get away with such over-simplifications because George Allen is not on X/Twitter to call him out:

Making parts that have the machined finish exposed to the end user can be finicky. Customer really liked the way this one catches the light. The last shop was not providing an acceptable aesthetic.

Da stimme ich voll zu. Wenn man krank ist, ist man krank. Wer in so einer Situation Druck macht, hat die Loyalität selbst gekündigt. Die Screenshots sprechen Bände.
Vergesst nie: Arbeitgeber sind nicht eure Freunde. Jede Entscheidung, die er trifft, dient am Ende dem Unternehmen, nicht euch. Ihr schuldet eurem Arbeitgeber überhaupt nichts, und wenn ihr krank seid, seid ihr krank. Für ihn seid ihr ganz einfach zu ersetzen, aber eure Gesundheit ist einmalig.

Ich stimme zu. Die Wirtschaft braucht Planungssicherheit, und die reicht weit über kurze Zyklen hinaus.
Wir Recht er hat. Ich wünsche mir langfristige Lösungen und Perspektiven, die über Parteigrenzen hinweg gesucht und gefunden werden.

Someone is funding this so that Macron has to declare a state of emergency and can cancel the upcoming election which the right is projected to win.

Replying to @ycombinator
If you can find something that lets you go all-in until you’re on the verge of passing out, you can push through almost anything. Those kinds of people don’t get swayed by external pressure and they don’t make excuses. Whether AI is here or not doesn’t change a thing for them. Track down just two or three things you can obsess over at that level, and there’s simply no room left for dissatisfaction.
