tuhat: Finnish for one thousand is a platform for long-form writing. No threads, no microblogging, no hot takes. Originally posts had to be at least 1,000 words to be posted, although as new languages were added and use cases considered that was eventually dropped. Even still, tuhat remains a home for considered writing, regardless of ultimate length.

Take a simple request: “Return to the launch point.”On a normal chat screen, it is a short line of text. In the Mini Talon project, the request can be associated with a function, checked by the application and, if permitted, passed to ArduPilot. From there, it may produce a real change in the aircraft’s...

In the past week the Wall Street Journal ran a couple of articles which highlight the concern and fear being expressed about AI evolving and destroying humanity.

Travel days can easily fill from morning until night with movement, sights, and constant newness. The excitement is real, and the desire to make the most of limited time is understandable. Yet without deliberate pauses, the experience begins to blur. One street melts into the next. One impression crowds out the one...
IChange one word. Where you wrote missed, write concentrated. Then read it again.A peck is a kiss at low density. A kiss is a peck at high density. Nobody says they miss the peck. They say they miss the kiss, and by that they mean the density.We do this on purpose. A holiday gathers everything into one room for a...
Gustave Dore. The Fall of the Rebel Angels, from Book I of “Paradise Lost” by John Milton (1608-74), c. 1868Two hundred angels come down on Mount Hermon and swear an oath.

Ik heb iets gevonden.Na het bezoek van Celeste heb ik de rest van de middag met mijn neus in de stoffige oude boeken van mijn oma gezeten. De boeken die niet voor de verkoop zijn. De obscure exemplaren die ik bewaar in de antieke kast in de achterkamer die ik "de kluis" noem, omdat oma dat ook al deed. Sommige zo...
I found something.After Celeste's visit, I spent the rest of the afternoon with my nose buried in Gran's dusty old books. Not the ones for sale, but the obscure volumes I keep in the antique armoire in the back room: the one I call "the vault", because Gran called it that too. Some are so old that the pages crumble...
I can’t say I was cock-a-hoop when the jury summons dropped through the letterbox. But when you’re called you have to go, so I’m just back from a couple of weeks at the Crown Courts.Six years of retirement leads you into some bad habits, like winding down and lying abed until mid morning. But suddenly you’re up with...
I’ve gone on record as not wanting to be the type of political blogger who produces reactive pieces in response to fast moving situations and agendas. There are a number of reasons for this. The first being that I simply don’t have the time. Also, as we have what we consider to be a long term project, it can be...
