Love 🚴 and 🧗—leaning into the clichés.

It has become received wisdom in Brussels and Washington that there is a new “euro-sclerosis”: that the EU economy is lagging the US

This view is wrong

A little primer on the measurement of productivity – and why reports of the economic death of Europe are greatly exaggerated🧵

Dites-moi que je ne suis pas le seul à sourire bêtement sur mon vélo parce que ma transmission est enfin silencieuse ? Changement chaîne et cassette effectué, c'est le jour et la nuit. Je redécouvre la vie

#MediacitésLyon 🔎 Dans une tribune, celui qui n’est pas encore officiellement candidat aux #municipales2026 à Lyon avance une liste de 6 propositions pour « apaiser les rues ». Trois d’entre elles sont déjà en vigueur, au moins en partie.

Been using Roo Code to run my Curse of Strahd campaign — and yeah, it can do a lot more than code.

I've set up 4 custom modes to support my DMing workflow. It's been smooth, organized, and honestly pretty fun. 🧵👇

Just backed Blades in the Dark: Deep Cuts. I live in France, where they don’t ship because of ongoing tariff chaos. But I couldn’t not get a physical copy—this game was my lockdown obsession. www.backerkit.com/c/projects/e...

Anyone used Kwanko for affiliate marketing?
I’ve got a small side project (helping people pick the right product) and I’m thinking of monetizing it with affiliate links to specific items.
How strict are they when reviewing new sites?
Do they accept small indie projects?

I love using Clean Architecture at work.

I get that many devs find the boilerplate annoying—some even say it outweighs the benefits of modular code.

But with LLMs becoming more common for code generation, that argument starts to fade.

🧪 I generated a judgment list using a SDBN click model to evaluate search relevance. Now I'm wondering: how balanced is it in terms of query types? 🤔

The catch: I don’t have a predefined set of query classes. So… how do you automatically classify queries in this context?

Just realized how important it is to estimate a person's position in the org chart—this could be a key signal to improve our search algorithm. Kind of surprised I hadn’t thought of it sooner!

Franchement, la rue Marietton à vélo, c'est toujours un vrai coupe-gorge... 😵‍💫 J'espère que ça ressortira bien sur le baromètre vélo de la @fub-fr.bsky.social cette année. C'est clairement le point noir de mon trajet quotidien !

Je viens de m’abonner à @mediacites.fr Du journalisme d’investigation local qui m’intéresse. Et surtout, un geste citoyen : financer une presse indépendante, ça me semble important, surtout en ce moment.

Just came across an fascinating topic at work: Click Models in the context of search relevance. 🧐🔍

These models, based on Probabilistic Graphical Models, let you estimate variables you cannot observe using those you can. (1/6)

Been diving into Knowledge Graphs for RAG this past week. Revisited some past work on the topic—feels great to be back!

Search engineers & product folks: What are the best SaaS tools with admin interfaces for configuring Learning to Rank models (with judgment lists)? Looking for UI inspiration! #Elasticsearch #SearchUX #Saas #Indiehacker

Deploying Hugging Face models on Vertex AI is awesome! Just deployed a DeepSeek distillation model in 3 clicks—seamless and fast. ⚡ Don't forget to undeploy when you're done!

Been using dbt + BigQuery for analytics at work. BigQueryML fits right in—deploying AI use cases to production in just days, no scaling headaches. Highly recommend! 🚀 #BigQuery #dbt #AI #Analytics

I have a habit of checking trending github repos on weekly. It’s fascinating to see what’s FOTM. A quick way to stay inspired and in the loop. #OpenSource

Justin Reid bot on chess.com is destroying me—and my self-esteem. My pieces deserve better.

Coming from a backend background, my biggest frustration is my inability to make visually appealing websites. Tailwind helps me achieve decent results, but when I see what experienced designers create, it’s next level. 😅 Huge respect to all the designers out there! 🎨✨ #webdev #design

Back in 2018, MLOps was the FOTM —everyone was racing to build pipelines & train custom models. Then ChatGPT dropped, and now most companies just fine-tune or integrate. Curious: who's still investing heavily in training their own models these days? 🤔 #AI #MLOps #TechTrends

One year with paperless-ngx on my NAS, and I can confidently say it’s the best app I’ve installed. It’s been a game-changer for keeping my house paper-free and organized. The mobile app works flawlessly, and even with SQLite, there’s zero performance issues. 💯 Would recommend!

Quick tip: Before submitting large chunks of content into #Gemini, it’s worth checking how it’s tokenized. Since costs are tied to tokens, a quick review can help you avoid unexpected expenses.

I often find that it's hard to describe exactly what you are looking for in a job. Job boards are often super clunky. I'll try CrewAI to do something a bit smarter than a job board.
