They showed this at the local cinema, the Atelier. I always enjoy a good studio documentation - especially one of such an interesting band and one that's as well done as this one. And I'm very glad no one fell off that roof, WTF!?

I wanted a Coen movie, I got a Coen movie. Absolutely hilarious. And another fantastic cast. They were all a delight to watch, but I probably liked John Malkovich's performance the most. Also loved the idea with the CIA guy reporting those summaries of what had happened. Clever and funny.

Finally got around to setting up Syncthing to sync files between my Linux machine and my Mac. Not sure why it took me this long. It works like a charm and transfers files almost instantly over my local network. This will make working on both machines so much easier.
I’ve been using Whereabouts for a couple of weeks now, to learn to identify all the countries on the world map. It is pretty fun and I am learning a lot. It also triggered a couple of deep dives into countries I knew nothing about. E.g. Eswatini (formerly known as Swaziland) and its absolute monarch ruler, who has 11+ wives. Sounds like a standup kinda guy…
The more I read about it, the more I feel Europe doesn’t just need new frontier models. It also needs the infrastructure layer around them: coding harnesses, local-first agents, evals, reproducible environments, trajectory/session collection, RL data pipelines, etc.
Projects like pi and the broader local-LLM ecosystem feel surprisingly aligned with that vision.
Have rewatched this after a looong while. And the first time not dubbed. Still so so good and so funny. Every scene is perfect. The cast and their performances, the dialogue… One of my favourite movies of all time.

the last months of being a twentysomething: after detours, rock bottoms, and side quests, i am looking back with nothing but gratitude, awe, and pride.
