Saving the rainforest, AI multiplication, and more: THE WEEKLY RECAP (2022#40)
Extremely packed week. Lots of stuff happening at the same time in the world (Nobel prizes, Tesla robots, AI learning to do matrix multiplications really well), but also at home (new lab, here I come!). Let’s get to it: Do the robot🤖 In the same week, we had robot presentations (nothing too interesting there, to…

The death of social media, harvesting cloned organs, and more: THE WEEKLY RECAP (2022#31)
Holidays are here, but before I leave for a few weeks (do not expect a lot of content during the rest of August), there are a few cool links that I want to share. Let’s start: IKEA-mobile Useless hacks are always the coolest. Controlling your sofa with a Wii nunchuck? Why would you want to…

China being hacked, green energy?, and more: THE WEEKLY RECAP (2022#27)
Hardly finding some time to read these days, and almost even harder to write a post… I am in need of holidays. Let’s start: The biggest hack ever? The numbers here are astonishing. Almost one thousand million people’s data being hacked is no joke, and to make things worse, it seems that it was not…

Lost ships, the eye of Sauron, and more: THE WEEKLY RECAP (2022#14)
Full week at a conference, so basically no news/links on my side. However, going back to meet people face to face was amazing. Super cool talks, nice food, and my body clearly saying to me that I am not used to being far from home for a full week anymore. Nature’s images of the month.…

Unlimited Love, mass bleaching events, and more: THE WEEKLY RECAP (2022#13)
Quite a busy week at work, and tomorrow I am traveling to Strasbourg for some days to assist my first conference since the pandemic started. Very few links to share, and probably next week will be even more brief. Say goodbye to corals Last week I talked about the extreme temperature changes that were recorded…
