"SPINACH": LLM-based tool to translate "challenging real-world questions" into Wikidata SPARQL queries
More generally, this kind of task is called "Knowledge Base Question Answering" (KBQA). The authors observe that many benchmarks have been published for it over the last decade, and that recently, the KBQA community has shifted toward using Wikidata as the underlying knowledge base for KBQA datasets. However, they criticize those existing benchmarks as either contain[ing] only simple questions [...] or synthetically generated complex logical forms that are not representative enough of real-world queries. To remedy this, they "introduce the SPINACH dataset, an expert-annotated KBQA dataset collected from forum discussions on Wikidata's 'Request a Query' forum with 320 decontextualized question-SPARQL pairs. Much more complex than existing datasets, SPINACH calls for strong KBQA systems that do not rely on training data to learn the KB schema, but can dynamically explore large and often incomplete schemas and reason about them."
The paper's second contribution is an LLM-

Take a skim through the link for full details (especially the breaking changes), but I have included some parts that I thought were important:
This release has been over two years in the making, so we're really glad to finally get it out to you. The long cycle does mean quite an extensive changelog however, with well over 1100 pull requests merged into our master branch since 10.8.0 first dropped back in 2022.

- We now support "trickplay" a.k.a. live video scrubbing. When scrubbing through a video with this enabled, you will be able to see a live preview of the video at that timestamp. Note that this requires explicit client support, which may require some time to become available depending on your client.

- We now support AVIF and WEBP images for Pictures libraries.
- Tags are now accounted for during searches, allowing one to search by tag.

XZ Hack - "If this timeline is correct, it’s not the modus operandi of a hobbyist. It wouldn’t be surprising if it was paid for by a state actor."
Well — we just witnessed one of the most daring infosec capers of my career. Here’s what we know so far: some time ago, an unknown party evidently noticed that liblzma (aka xz) — a relatively obscure open-source compression library — was a dependency of
Thought this was a good read exploring some how the "how and why" including several apparent sock puppet accounts that convinced the original dev (Lasse Collin) to hand over the baton.
The decentralized Instagram alternative is a great option if you want to back up your feed, focus on photo-sharing, or cut loose from Meta's empire entirely. And making the leap is surprisingly easy.

I wasn't anticipating this attention for a few more months, but I'm ready 😎
Possibility of clipboard sync functionality.
There used to be XClipper
But it's not developed anymore because, according to the developer Kaustubh Patange:
What happened with this "hack" and the findings of Mr. Patange?
Did Android simply kill the possibility of such a sync function?
Microsoft's own Android Keyboard Swiftkey (yea I know, but I really need some functions of it) allows the syncing of clipboard content between Android and Windows. However, I heard that it's bad security and privacy practice to even enable clipboard history on Windows. I d
