Closed-Form Calculus on Your Desk: Integrate Symbolically with SymPy
Wolfram's Integrate page shows off closed-form calculus. SymPy does the same in open Python you own — turn a load into a bending moment in four lines.
Kimi K3 Hits the Studio: a 2.8-Trillion Open Model That Reads Your Screenshots
Moonshot's Kimi K3 is the first open-weights 3-trillion-class model, with 1M-token context and native vision that names CAD. A PAZ hands-on for BIM desks.
Git for Architects: The Version Habit That Outlives Every Vendor
Why every Swiss Büro should run git init on its live project today: free, offline, vendor-proof version history for IFC, SVG and Grasshopper files.
Galapagos at Fifteen: The Honest Solver David Rutten Gave the Building Industry
David Rutten's Galapagos brought evolutionary optimisation to Grasshopper in 2010. A hands-on guide to the solver that shaped a generation of buildings.
Your Office Wiki Is a Folder of Markdown Files — OpenKnowledge Just Made It Editable
OpenKnowledge turns a folder of markdown into an AI-readable office wiki over MCP — and keeps your practice's knowledge in files that outlive the vendor.
Spain Won With a Pipeline, Not a Transfer Window — Your BIM Stack Is Too
Spain beat Argentina 1-0 with a nine-year pipeline, not transfers. The same logic decides whether your Archicad-Speckle-IFC stack survives its vendors.
Grasshopper before Python: the cognitive-load case, taught with PyMuPDF
Why PAZ teaches Grasshopper before Python — cognitive-load theory, then a runnable PyMuPDF script that reads your next tender's text layer in four lines.
Let the Data Count Its Own Clusters: One Bayesian Trick, Two Worlds
Two 2026 arXiv papers use the Dirichlet process to let data pick cluster count — in movie ratings and cancer subtypes. What it means for BIM and design data.
Build a Vintage LLM for the Price of Lunch: A 1900-Locked Model, From Scratch
How croqaz trained a 340M-param, 1900-cutoff LLM for ~$80 — a clone-and-run template for an atelier's own domain-locked house model. Data curation is the job.
The wave equation, sliced four ways: a faster solver for seismic and acoustic FE
A new space-time sparse-grid method makes the wave equation embarrassingly parallel — what it means for seismic, acoustic and vibration FE on an architect's desk.
