Now open source: movebank-mirror-api 0.0.1 - a small local server that re-serves the Movebank REST API from a directory of mirrored studies. Point any Movebank-API client at localhost; works offline, fast.

Big milestone unlocked! 🚀
Antenna path measured, matching network tuned, firmware updated - ready to test GPS with the Ignion (@ignionrf) RUN mXTEND™ (NN02-224) Virtual Antenna® on "Not a Tag"!
Ditching bulky ceramic patches for this tiny 12×3×2.4mm beast. Ground-truth data for 19xevfkk7S) coming soon from eastern Crete rolling hills.

🐦 Also open-sourcing this one out of years of private internal tooling: movebank-mirror 0.0.1.
A CLI + library that pulls Movebank studies to a local file/folder structure and keeps them in sync.
Per-study JSON metadata, per-(tag, sensor type) CSVs. Resumable. Friendly to the live API.

After years of carrying it around as private code, I cleaned it up and shipped it: a Java client for the Movebank REST API is now on Github and Maven Central.
Bonus: a mirror tool + offline replay server land next.

Yeah, nice... but can you run Firetail on it? 🤗
Just tested the new NVIDIA DGX Spark for the first time today and it's a great device! 🔥 And it's small! I immediately ran a real head-to-head against our RTX 5090 on the exact same workload.
- The RTX 5090 is roughly 6× faster in raw tokens/sec
- The DGX Spark still delivered per second on Qwen Coder Next 80B
At first the speed gap felt noticeable... but then you realize what's actually happening. The 5090 is an absolute speed demon when the model fits comfortably in 32 GB VRAM. The DGX Spark, however, brings 128 GB of unified memory.
That single difference changes everything. I could load the full 80B model with room to breathe: longer context, lighter quantization without constant memory gymnastics, no compromises.
This isn't about winning the pure performance crown. It's about making frontier-scale local AI actually practical on your desk. And it's quiet, private, no cloud bills, no latency and no data leaving the building.
The DGX Spark isn't trying to replace high-end GPUs. It's redefining what "usable" means for serious developers and researchers. Already planning my next experiments. Can't wait to push it further.
Anyone else got their hands on the DGX Spark yet?

#FireSOM may be the first step towards your specific large-scale prediction model of animal behavior. It features ways to include external predictions, video annoation and evaluation tools. It's fully integrated in Firetail.

Cheetahs are declining across much of their range in Africa. Researchers are monitoring their numbers in a massive wilderness in Zambia to see how they are doing in one of their few bastions.

Three decades of satellite data reveal a surprising culprit behind tropical carbon loss.
Using data from @esaclimate’s RECCAP-2 and Biomass projects, scientists found that small deforestation clearings – often under two hectare – are behind more than half of total losses since w9FIKLg

Just a heads-up: #FireSOM processes your animal data securely, offline, and without sharing anything. It ships with firetail.de, simple and efficient.
We are amazed to see another paper 📜published featuring #FireSOM for the prediction of behavioral categories from 🦇multi-axis acceleration data. Congratulations to the authors!
