Remek Kinas announced the release of basal 2.2, which—he wrote—introduces the basal-calibrate tool for adjusting model calibration to the user's local data. According to him, the tool uses labeled examples from a given process, and the data is not shared externally or used for training the model. Kinas stated that he tested the solution in a new field where the model had not been trained. He wrote that using the "1%" setting from the provided file would result in automatically accepting every eighth decision, with 8% of those being incorrect. After calibration on the user's data, the calibration error for choice questions decreased from 0.268 to 0.083. In the case of the verify statements, the model automatically accepted 54.8% of the cases and made no errors in doing so. The release also included FP8 and GGUF ports for basal-omni-1.0-mini and max, as well as MLX ports for Apple Silicon Macs: mini, max, and 1.1-max. Kinas thanked Piotr Durlej for GGUF export, Kuba Sołtys for implementation on Google TPU, Michał Kardyś for work related to AMD Strix Halo, user lukaspoloki for basal-viz, and Paweł Kiszczak for exports to Apple Silicon MLX. The author also expressed gratitude for the posts and comments from the past weekend. He mentioned that he had responded to some of them and then worked on further improvements; he also announced that he would publish comments in the evening. #sztucznainteligencja #uczenieMaszynowe #technologia (translated)

The author assessed that the American leadership is making a serious mistake by treating W. Putin as an ordinary political partner and not recognizing the associated risks. He described him in a dehumanizing manner and warned that sitting down with him for conversations could make the participants themselves become victims. #Polityka #Putin #Ryzyko #US (translated)

The author wrote that "Rzeczpospolita" described the case of Pawel Rubcow, whom he characterized as a dangerous GRU agent. According to him, the court wanted to prosecute him, although his trial could not begin in Poland, and the Police Headquarters had already concluded that Interpol would not issue a red notice because the case was of a political nature. The author assessed that in this way Rubcow was let off the hook. #Polska #bezpieczeństwo #polityka #PL (translated)

Paweł Usiądek wrote that the Euro 7 standard could lead to immobilizing a car if the system detects too high emissions of exhaust gases. According to him, the regulations were set to come into effect on November 29, 2026, for new types of passenger and commercial vehicles, and a year later would apply to all factory-new cars of these categories. Usiądek assessed that such a solution would limit the ownership rights of drivers. The author described the onboard emissions monitoring system (OBM), which — as he wrote — was supposed to continuously check the composition of exhaust gases, including levels of nitrogen oxides and the efficiency of the particulate filter. According to his description, upon detecting a malfunction, the system would count down the distance traveled: after 1400 km, a message was to be displayed continuously, and after exceeding 2400 km, the procedure for immobilizing the vehicle would begin. Deleting the error would not stop it; after a reset, the counter would set itself to the lower of the two values: 2400 km or the current mileage. After repair, the vehicle would have to travel 400 km in a test mode, and the re-detection of the malfunction would set the counter to 2401 km. Usiądek noted that traveling abroad would not stop the countdown. Usiądek warned that a recurring malfunction could prompt mechanics to replace the engine, which in new, electronics-laden vehicles could mean a very costly repair. He also wrote that the implementing regulation 2025/1707 mandated the wireless transmission of some data to the manufacturer's servers, which would then be passed on to authorities in an anonymized form. Among the registered information, he listed speed, RPM, engine load, fuel flow, and parameters from the entire usage period of the vehicle. The author argued that the driver does not control the quality of fuel or oil, although — as he pointed out — they affect the composition of exhaust gases. In his opinion, the consequences of emission problems would fall on the driver, not the vehicle manufacturer. #emisiones #normaEuro7 #własność (translated)

Konto Poland news War in Ukraine wrote that Volodymyr Zelensky appealed to the United States to provide Ukraine with Starlink, stating that the country will continue its defense even without it. According to the post, he criticized the decision limiting access to the service and called it a mistake, asking why it is making it harder for Ukraine to defend itself. The author added that Ukraine is not asking the USA to participate in the war, but for it not to hinder its defense. #Ukraina #Starlink #obrona (translated)

Professor Jarosław Flis from Jagiellonian University points out that in the coming months, the key issue will be the struggle between the main parties over which of them makes a bigger mistake, which could determine the outcome of the elections in 2027. #wybory2024 #Polska #politologia (translated)

Qvosiu wrote that after yesterday's match, there was significant criticism of the refereeing from individuals he did not specify. In his opinion, De Burgos made only one key mistake: he allowed Abde's goal despite a clear foul on Fermin. The other situations, as he assessed, were resolved perfectly. #mecz #sędziowanie #piłka_nożna (translated)

The author of the entry assessed that the United Kingdom is unlikely to return to the EU, although — in his opinion — from an economic point of view, its exit was a mistake. He added that the country gained greater political independence, but previously the British had special rights in the Union and no one could impose anything on them. #Brexit #WielkaBrytania #UE #GB #EU (translated)

The author of the entry claimed that the PAP employee did not make a mistake but fell victim to manipulated dispatches that, in his opinion, suggested a knife attack on a policewoman. He added that the juxtaposition of information about the arrest with information about the knife was meant to create a false impression for readers. #Wiadomości #Polska #PAP #PL (translated)

Marcin Wyrwał discusses the key differences between a shelter, a hideout, and a temporary shelter in his program, pointing out how understanding these concepts can save lives, and critically evaluates the government app "Where to Hide," which may mislead users about the safety offered by different types of shelters. #Schronienie #OchronaLudności #Bezpieczeństwo (translated)

Ziemowit Miłosz Malecha wrote that presenting the capacity of 1.2 GW of offshore wind energy as sufficient to power 1.5 million households may mislead consumers. According to him, this number comes from the expected average annual energy production, not supply guarantees. Malecha pointed out that production depends on wind strength: it decreases with weak winds, and with strong winds, it can exceed current demand, which may require exporting surpluses or limiting production. He added that such slogans overlook the issue of energy availability at the time it is needed. #Energia #Statystyka #OdnawialneŹródłaEnergii (translated)

The author of the post criticized Brudziński for referring to the democratically elected government as the "Tusk gang," accusing him of inconsistency with his declared defense of the rule of law and the Constitution. He reminded that — as he wrote — judges of the Constitutional Tribunal are elected by the Sejm based on Article 194, paragraph 1 of the Constitution of the Republic of Poland, and a change in the parliamentary majority does not take away these powers. The author also questioned the characterization of the Sejm's actions as an unlawful takeover of the Tribunal and the presentation of it as the last independent institution of justice, pointing to long-standing controversies regarding its composition, functioning, and independence. He accused Brudziński's group of treating the state as their own property. The commenter assessed that the dissemination of false or manipulated information and the presentation of lawful actions of the state as an assault on constitutional order should meet with a response from public opinion, as well as an assessment from the relevant authorities regarding potential legal responsibility. He added that freedom of speech and the right to criticize the government do not mean unlimited freedom to make false accusations. #Polska #konstytucja #praworządność (translated)

Petenucci published an apology regarding the post from October 14, 2026, about Bartłomiej Babuśka. He admitted that he misled the public opinion by claiming that the honorary consul of Ukraine owned a property not reported in his asset declaration, which was registered under his son’s name, in Marbella. As he wrote, after checking the GPS coordinates, he determined that the property was located in the nearby Fuengirola. He apologized to Babuśka for violating his personal rights by incorrectly attributing the property to Marbella. The post was signed by Konstanty Migacz. #przeprosiny #oświadczenie #media (translated)
