Zurich's City Twin: Reading Heat and Density in the GIS Before a Building Moves
Zurich's open GIS layers plus live simulation form a city digital twin that reads heat, traffic and density before a building moves — with a PostGIS join to try.
GAF: the 4D robotics plugin your atelier should commission, not license
Gaussian Action Field extends 3D splatting into a 4D robotic-manipulation engine. Why Swiss ateliers should commission it, not license its wrapper.
When the AI Platform Goes Dark: Run It Locally So Your Work Survives
A free AI platform vanished overnight and 80 games nearly went with it. Learn to run models locally with transformers.js so your work outlives the vendor.
Seaborn: the quiet library that makes a column of numbers tell the truth
A foundation guide to Seaborn, the high-level Python library over matplotlib — how declarative statistical graphics make the honest chart the easy one to draw.
The blurry-mean trap: why your AV (and BIM) model can score well and still be wrong
An arXiv diffusion world model shows SSIM and cosine metrics reward useless blur — the evaluation lesson every AEC ML pipeline needs. Plus a 3-line Python check.
Rusternetes: a Rust Kubernetes, 94% conformant — and the Swiss procurement clause that just got writable
A solo developer's Rust reimplementation of Kubernetes clears 94% of conformance tests — and the single-binary mode rewrites Swiss procurement.
The Building That Clusters Itself: A Cancer-Triage Algorithm Lands on the Smart Estate
A new arXiv variational Dirichlet process method speeds up clinical subtyping — and gives building-OS designers a way to let data choose its zones.
Talos on Hetzner: A Private Kubernetes Your Successor Can Still Boot
Build a private, EU-hosted Talos Kubernetes cluster on Hetzner with Terraform — no public IPs, reproducible from git. A hands-on PAZ Academy tutorial.
Basel's Tail Metric Taught a Neural Net — and Your Studio Has the Same Scarce-Data Problem
A new arXiv paper distils a CVaR risk optimizer into neural students from 104 samples — and the teacher-student trick maps straight onto AEC's data gap.
MAGS-SLAM: many cameras, no LiDAR — collaborative Gaussian mapping and its ETH Zurich roots
The first RGB-only multi-agent Gaussian Splatting SLAM lets cheap cameras co-map a site without LiDAR — with a build kit and its ETH Zurich roots.
