Learning Controlled Separation of Small Objects Between Two Fingers with a Tactile Skin
arXiv:2605.31486v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We introduce and solve the novel task of controlled separation of small objects with two fingers of a multi-purpose robotic hand: after grasping into a box of small objects, the task is to drop as many of them until a desired number remains between the fingers. The objects are small compared to the width of the fingers but also in absolute terms. In our case little pellets with a diameter of only 6mm are handled.
Ask HN: What are tools you have made for yourself since the advent of AI?
I've made a number of ceramic molds for slumping fused glass into bowls. As well as wooden templates for ceramic mugs. I've devised a few carrying tools to move glass frit paintings from my studio down to my barn where the kilns sit without spilling the glass.
Why Janet?
I never thought it could happen to me. But for the past couple years, my go-to programming language for fun side projects has been a little Lisp dialect called Janet. I like Janet so much that I wrote an entire book about it, and put it on The Internet for free, in the hopes of attracting more Janetors to the language.
Microsoft’s AI chief says superintelligence is near, but won’t take your job
Today I’m talking with Mustafa Suleyman, the CEO of Microsoft AI. And I’m actually going to keep today’s intro short — I’m working from my wife’s family farm this week, as you’ll see in the video, but also this is a real burner of an episode. We covered everything from Mustafa’s approach to training new models to his criticisms of Anthropic talking about Claude as though it is conscious.

Whole-genome duplication shaped cell-type evolution in the vertebrate brain
Abstract The complex brains of vertebrates have more cell types than those of their closest relatives. Whole-genome duplications (WGDs) occurred during early vertebrate evolution1, but it is unclear whether the duplicated genes (ohnologues) facilitated cell-type evolution. Here using brain single-cell transcriptomes from five chordates—human2, mouse3, lizard4, lamprey5 and amphioxus—we report that many cell-type families with conserved core transcription factors in vertebrates do not show...

Alex Vindman Survived Trump’s Retaliation Machine. Now He’s Running for Senate
Alex Vindman knows a thing or two about pissing off President Donald Trump. In 2019, Vindman rose to national prominence when he served as a witness during Trump’s first impeachment trial. If you’ve lost track of that particular scandal, it’s the one involving Trump, Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky, the Biden family … and Vindman listening in on a troubling phone call in his capacity as the director for European affairs on the National Security Council.
