Lukáš Eršil stated that Claude AI created a 3D model of the National Theatre for him after four days of interaction and adjustments, mostly during the evenings. According to him, the model captures the building in seven stages from the foundations to the dome from 1868 to 1883, the fire in 1881, and the subsequent restoration. It also includes a section of the building, a ten-layer X-ray of the technical equipment, and a night scene with the illuminated facade and trams. Eršil added that the model offers 49 interactive locations with descriptions in Czech and English, and he redrew the partitions on all floors according to the original plans from 1883. He estimated that the cost of creating the design using traditional methods was about 3 million crowns based on Czech price lists and would take four to five months of work for six to eight people. He published the code for free on GitHub and mentioned that he added a link to it as well as the executable Artifact in the comment. #3Dmodel #Národnídivadlo #ClaudeAI (translated)

Michal Hardyn stated that after two years and more than 60,000 kilometers driven, he completed the first regular service with his Tesla, focused on filter replacement and basic inspection. He paid 8,000 and according to him, it was done before he finished his coffee and dealt with several emails. He said he was enjoying the experience with the car more and more, and in the showroom, he promised Adrian from Tesla in Prague that he would try to purchase a Model Y Performance in the spring. At the open house event at Tesla in Průhonice on Saturday, according to Hardyn, there were hundreds of people and the showroom was crowded. They presented FSD, which is the system where the car drives itself and the driver supervises. Hardyn wrote that some participants already had this function, while his vehicle was still waiting for the update. He described the most interesting experience as the voice assistant Grok in Tesla. He explained that while driving, he asked it to find a newsletter from the office, read it, and open an attachment that contained, according to him, the answer to the question of when the reconstructed playground would reopen. He added that he could also access files on Google Drive or GitHub this way and can voice-search for the highest-rated McDonald’s restaurant along the route. Hardyn compared the current situation of car manufacturers to the former competition between Nokia phones and the iPhone. According to him, traditional manufacturers focus on choosing interior colors and more complex configurators, while customers are starting to care about what the car can achieve during the journey. He wrote that cars should serve people, not the other way around. #Tesla #autonomnířízení #zážitky (translated)

Russia’s fake African newsrooms – propaganda designed to look local A Facebook user in Nairobi, Accra, Johannesburg or Luanda encounters what appears to be a local news page. It publishes stories about African politics, Western influence and relations with Russia. The language is tailored to an African audience and the page presents itself not as a foreign broadcaster, but as part of the local information landscape. Behind some of these outlets, however, Meta found operators based in Russia. In its 2026 threat research, the company disclosed a Coordinated Inauthentic Behaviour network targeting audiences in Angola, Ghana, Kenya and South Africa. Meta removed 37 Facebook accounts and 29 Pages connected to the operation. Around 30,000 users followed at least one of the Pages, while the operators spent approximately $7,000 on Facebook and Instagram advertising, mostly in euros and US dollars. The numbers are relatively modest. The method is considerably more important. Rather than openly distributing Russian state messaging, the network posed as local African news sources and grassroots organisations, promoting narratives about Western colonialism and political interference while presenting Russia as a credible economic and political alternative. It was an old geopolitical message delivered through a much more effective identity: not Moscow speaking to Africa, but Africans apparently speaking to one another. A news outlet that was actually an influence operation Meta's investigation found that the network attempted to conceal its Russian origin while creating media brands that appeared indigenous to the countries they targeted. Its content amplified historical grievances against former colonial powers, criticised Western involvement in Africa and promoted closer relations with Russia. One example helps illustrate how the infrastructure was assembled. A Facebook Page targeting Kenya was called Kenya Watchtower. According to OpenAI's subsequent investigation, Facebook transparency records showed that the Page had previously been named “Farmtown5”. It appears to have been acquired or repurposed rather than built from scratch as a Kenyan news organisation. Some Pages also exposed administrator locations in Russia and Ukraine. Other elements of the network had previously targeted audiences in Zambia and Namibia. This use of apparently local identities is particularly important in the African information environment. A story published by RT or another identifiable Russian outlet arrives with an obvious geopolitical provenance. The same narrative presented by something resembling an independent Kenyan, Ghanaian or South African newsroom carries a different kind of credibility. The source appears closer to the reader, and the geopolitical interest behind the message becomes less visible. Then investigators found Dr Manuel Godsin The Facebook operation was only one part of a broader information ecosystem. OpenAI investigated related activity after receiving information from Meta and subsequently banned a ChatGPT account it assessed as likely originating in Russia. OpenAI called the campaign Operation No Bell. The account was being used to generate long-form articles and social-media posts about African geopolitics. Prompts were primarily written in English, but OpenAI also observed Russian-language instructions that the user described as coming from a manager. The operator sometimes explicitly asked the model to make the material appear less AI-generated – including requests to avoid stylistic features associated with machine-generated text and to write more like a human journalist. Many articles appeared under the name “Dr Manuel Godsin”, presented as an academic with a PhD from the University of Bergen and an affiliation with an organisation called the International Centre for Political and Strategic Studies. OpenAI could find no credible evidence that Godsin existed. Searches of Norway's National Research Information Repository and the University of Bergen library produced no record of him. Investigators subsequently discovered that a photograph used to represent Godsin had appeared years earlier on a Russian professional networking site and apparently belonged to a law student in St Petersburg. The fabricated academic identity was nevertheless remarkably productive. OpenAI identified 53 online articles carrying the Godsin byline. The fiction had moved beyond fake social-media pages and into the real media ecosystem. When propaganda enters genuine newsrooms This is the most consequential aspect of the operation. The articles were not confined to websites controlled by the influence network. Some were published by genuine African news organisations, including established South African outlets. The content mixed local political issues with broader geopolitical narratives. Some pieces criticised the United States and Britain or defended Russia's role in Africa. One accused the British NGO Crisis Action of fomenting protests in South Africa. Another praised Russia's presence in the Central African Republic. Other material addressed Kenya, Angola and relations between African governments and Washington. The mechanism represents a significant evolution from the classic troll-farm model. Instead of building an audience entirely on its own platforms, an influence operator can manufacture an apparently credible expert, generate articles in his name and persuade genuine news organisations to publish them. Once this happens, the propaganda acquires something a fake Facebook Page cannot provide: the institutional credibility of a real newsroom. OpenAI assessed No Bell's social-media impact as limited. One Facebook Page had around 3,000 followers before Meta removed it, while several others had very small audiences. But the operation was more successful in placing material in established media. In OpenAI's impact framework, it approached the level at which an influence operation breaks into mainstream media. For information operators, a single article published by a recognised outlet can potentially be more valuable than thousands of impressions generated by an obviously artificial account. A much larger network of ghost journalists Subsequent research suggests that Manuel Godsin was not an isolated experiment. In August 2026, Graphika, working with Code for Africa and with support from Meta, published a much broader investigation into Russian ghostwriting operations across African media. Researchers identified 44 ghost writers and fake experts, 38 of them assessed as high-confidence fabricated personas, operating between 2021 and 2026. Their material appeared or was quoted across 138 websites and was subsequently republished through at least 113 Facebook accounts and Pages, including authentic users, coordinated inauthentic networks and official Russian communication channels. The narratives were strikingly consistent. They included criticism of France, Ukraine and the United States; attacks on organisations such as ECOWAS and the International Criminal Court; positive portrayals of Russian involvement in Africa; praise for Russian paramilitary forces; and support for sovereignty-oriented political projects such as the Alliance of Sahel States. The operation therefore extends beyond creating fake news websites. It attempts to insert Russian-aligned narratives into the legitimate African media ecosystem using identities that appear African, independent or academically authoritative. This also explains why measuring reach through the original Facebook network alone is misleading. A fabricated article may begin with an influence operator, appear in a genuine African publication, be republished elsewhere and eventually circulate without any visible connection to Russia. At that point, the provenance of the narrative has effectively been laundered. An old Russian strategy with increasingly local faces Russia's use of local intermediaries in Africa is not new. Meta documented Russian networks using African nationals as early as 2019. In 2020 it dismantled another operation involving people in Ghana and Nigeria working on behalf of individuals in Russia, with links to previous activity associated with the Internet Research Agency. More recent Meta investigations suggest that this model has continued to evolve. Networks have increasingly relied on local freelancers, social-media managers and authentic media outlets rather than exclusively operating armies of obviously fake Russian-controlled accounts. This decentralisation offers several advantages. Local operators understand language, political sensitivities and cultural references. Authentic accounts are harder to identify than newly created synthetic personas. Local media brands can also deliver narratives without immediately triggering the scepticism associated with Russian state outlets. There is no evidence that every African journalist, freelancer or publication carrying such material knowingly participates in Russian influence activity. Meta explicitly notes in its investigations that some local contractors may not know who ultimately commissioned their work. That distinction is essential. The operation's effectiveness partly depends on precisely this ambiguity between deliberate participation, commercial content placement and unwitting amplification. The objective is to make Russian narratives look African The significance of this network is therefore not its 30,000 Facebook followers or its $7,000 advertising budget. Those figures are small compared with the audiences of major African media organisations. What matters is the distribution model. Traditional foreign propaganda asks an audience to trust a foreign source. These operations attempt to remove the foreign source from the equation altogether. A Russian geopolitical narrative can be generated with AI, attributed to an expert who does not exist, published by a media organisation that does, amplified through a Facebook Page presenting itself as local, and then rediscovered elsewhere as apparently independent African analysis. By the time the reader encounters it, Moscow may have disappeared completely from the chain of attribution. The resulting information operation is therefore less about making Russian propaganda more persuasive than about making it look as though it is no longer Russian propaganda at all. In an increasingly fragmented African media environment, that may be the more important evolution to watch.

Hello everyone, the code for Aracne2 has been on GitHub for a few months now — a modular CMS for editing and publishing TEI corpora. A companion volume, published by FedOA Press, covers its origins, architecture and features in detail. Code (MIT): https://github.com/orazionelson/aracne2 Site and documentation: https://orazionelson.github.io/aracne2/ Volume: https://doi.org/10.6093/978-88-6887-439-1 The underlying idea is to take a corpus from raw transcription to a citable digital edition without forcing the person editing the text to become a sysadmin as well. In brief: – schema-aware XML editor, with validation per document and across a whole collection; – staged editorial workflow with versioning and a clean split between working copy and published copy; – named entities linked to authority files (Wikidata, VIAF, GeoNames, ORCID, GND and others); – bibliography with BibTeX/CSL-JSON/Zotero import and DOI resolution; – facsimiles and zones for text-image alignment; – XSLT-driven public site generator, with configurable indices and search portals; – LOD and OAI-PMH for harvesting, deposit to Zenodo, Dataverse, Internet Archive and git forges; – audit log and fixity, plus policy pages aimed at projects preparing for a CoreTrustSeal review. Architecturally, there are two distinct data layers: PostgreSQL for platform state (users, roles, plugins, audit), eXist-db for TEI documents, stored natively and queried in XQuery. Python/FastAPI backend, Vue 3 frontend, fully containerised. Every integration is a plugin that mounts without a restart, so a deployment can stay minimal or grow along with the project. The AI side is there but optional and can be switched off: in-editor assistance (explaining validation errors, normalising bibliography, tagging named entities), local RAG over the TEI P5 Guidelines, and a read-only MCP server that lets an external assistant query the corpus. Anyone who cannot or would rather not send their texts to a cloud service can run the whole thing locally with Ollama. Aracne2 is the third iteration of a line of tools that began in 2008 with MaRa, the scripts written to mark up the Angevin Registers, continued with Aracne (2016-2026, built entirely on eXist-db), and arrives at this rewrite. The FedOA Press volume reconstructs that trajectory at length. It is all free: you can download it and try it locally with a handful of commands. Aracne2 is open to experiment and ready to be put to the test on new projects — reports, criticism and proposals are all welcome.

È il caso di raccontare la breve storia del signore in questione in ORA! - il signor Scacciavillani si candida e viene poi eletto come delegato per il congresso nazionale diventando 1 dei 373 delegati - per presentarsi l'associazione da a disposizione spazi pubblici su YT e interni su Discord: mentre tutti i candidati usano lo strumento di YouTube (prenotazione dei tempi e autogestione della live su StreamYard) in modo efficace, trovandosi quindi in gruppo per discutere della propria candidatura, il signor Scacciavillani non ce la fa (l'unico) e si cimenta in una live di più di un'ora da solo - si aprono le candidature di assemblea, direttivo e segretario. Dei 3, e come scelta libera (non c'era conflitto tra candidature), il signor Scacciavillani si candida al direttivo - il contributo al dibattito interno del signor Scacciavillani raggiunge il suo apice con forti prese di posizione sulla presunta impossibilità di modificare e votare (= approvare) dei testi su GitHub. È stata organizzata una sessione ad hoc di un’ora solo per dimostrarglielo ulteriormente. Alla fine, si è dichiarato d’accordo - al congresso i delegati eleggono assemblea e segretario, mentre poi l'assemblea elegge il direttivo - il signor Scacciavillani non viene eletto in direttivo e se ne va sbattendo la porta Prosegue con un anno di rigurgiti verso il partito di cui voleva tanto diventare dirigente #politica #candidatura #congresso

Trochu jsem si vytunil tu appku na čtení pána prstenů, aby se v tom děti líp orientovaly Udělal jsem si v midjourney tématické obrázky ke každé kapitole, postavy se postupně odemykají s tím jak postupujete v knížce, každá kapitola má summary a kvíz pro děti a pár otázek k zamyšlení. Každé z postav se pak odemyká její vlastní timeline s tím jak postupujete knihou, takže vidíte co všechno do té doby zažila. Je to cool, páč moji kluci (6 a 8) asi do 45 min. vytuhnou a já si to pak čtu pro sebe a jen si to s nima druhý den zrekapituluju, takže pořád ví kde jsme, co se děje, kdo je kdo atd. Tohle je naprosto geniální metoda jak si najít čas na čtení knížky kterou máte rádi a strávit quality time s dětma. V podstatě si to čtu pro sebe, oni u toho usnou, neztrácí se v tom a pak je to zajímá, takže win win. Až tohle dočtem, udělám stejnou appku pro další knížku... Kdyby to někdo chtěl s dětma zkusit, je to free u mě na githubu. https://t.co/7H8gZ9Z0yx #Čtení #Děti #Knihy

Viime viikonloppuna läksimme saarelle muutaman ystävän kanssa. Koneet auki, verkkoon, Antigravity päälle, Github käyttöön. Kokemus kielimallin käytöstä tuotemuotoilussa ja ohjelmoinnissa oli uusi. Sen sijaan että olisimme twiikkailleet tekstirivejä, me keskustelimme. Hyvältä näyttää, teetkö tuon, mitä ehdotat tehtäväksi. Nyt näyttää hyvältä, testaatko nuo. Ohjelman määrittely keskustellen, opastus samalta kielimallilta ja lopuksi testaten. Oma tausta on TAIK. Siellä keskityttiin käytettävyyteen, ulkoasuun. Koodauksen tekivät aivan muut henkilöt. Murros on hiukan sama kuin digitaalikameroiden tullessa käyttöön. Valokuvaaminen avautui massoille. Ei filmiä, ei pimeää huonetta, ei kiinnitteitä ja kehitteitä. Eikä pakastinta puolillaan filmiä ja valokuvapaperia. Tekoäly ja kielimallit tulevat muuttamaan työelämää. Työpaikkoja tullaan menettämään, samalla syntyy kuitenkin uusia mahdollisuuksia. Avoimin mielin, koulutukseen panostaen me tulemme pärjäämään.
