Your data has a history.

For most of two decades, turning a pile of photos into a 3D scene meant running an optimizer.

A few weeks ago I opened up a dataset of Hezbollah FPV drone-strike videos — every clip I could pull out of OSINT, labelled and kept in one place so anyone building a defense could start from real footage instead of a press release.

I've been working with Apache Iceberg for several years.

The cheapest, fastest-evolving threat on Israel's northern border right now is a $500 quadcopter with a warhead zip-tied to it.

Every "AI for data" demo I've seen does the same magic trick: point a model at a database, ask a question in English, get an answer.

There's a Hebrew language model called Hebatron that, in a single week, racked up 30,000 downloads and four community quantizations.

I recently listened to a Geekonomy episode with Dr.

I keep running into Gaussian splatting — in mapping demos, in VR captures, in the "scan your living room with your phone" apps — and for a while I only had a fuzzy sense of what it actually was.

You've seen it a hundred times.
