Previously, I logged the history of insect-machine hybrid robots in “A Brief History of Cyborg Insects (and Spiders)”. I gave a quick update a year ago in “Cyborg Insects Update: The Amazing Cockroach, Biomimetic Robots and Cyborg Bugs in Recent Years.” So far in 2025, I’ve noticed two new stories about cyborg insects. Both of […]
AI Genome modeling and design across all domains of life with Evo 2 Microsoft hypes another generative AI model but doesn’t really explain how it’ll help developers OthelloGPT learned a bag of heuristics Vibe Coding – A New System of the World Robotics How to get a robot collective to act like a smart material […]
A Sign of Decivilization? Like most people, the notion of eating insects grosses me out. Of course we probably eat small bugs or bug parts all the time without knowing it. I read a theory somewhere that vegetarian Indians used to get sufficient protein partially from the bugs they accidentally ate that were in the […]

Food recipes, that is. But cooking is kind of like programming and other computer efforts, isn’t it? Although it might not seem obvious, there is a very close connection between Coding and Cooking, as they are similar in many ways, to name a few they both need creativity, and have a solid foundation from where […]

Beware the Shiny Objects No shocker here: You have to make decisions in work and in life. It would seem the choices you make get harder and have bigger, longer-lasting consequences as one gets older—adulting, right? But many of us had to make at least a few huge decisions right out of the gate, for […]
