Veo2 Updates
February 25, 2025
I discovered that my app was failing to display the generated video because I was incorrectly extracting the video URL from the Fal.ai API response. Initially, my code assumed the video data was inside a property called data (i.e., final_obj.data), but in reality, the final result was returned directly as a plain dictionary in final_obj with the structure {"video": {"url": "..."}}. Once I logged the final API response, I realised I needed to use final_obj directly to extract the video URL. This change fixed the issue, and now the correct URL is passed to the template, allowing the video to display as intended.
wan-i2v
February 25, 2025
Another image-to-video model, this time wan-i2v which claims to be the next evolution in video generation.
Built upon the mainstream diffusion transformer paradigm, Wan2.1 achieves significant advancements in generative capabilities through a series of innovations, including our novel spatio-temporal variational autoencoder (VAE), scalable pre-training strategies, large-scale data construction, and automated evaluation metrics. These contributions collectively enhance the model’s performance and versatility
Patient Floral Arrangement
February 22, 2025
Latest album from New Mexican Stargazers.
It slowly overtook the front of my house, almost like a reminder of things I needed to accomplish but never had enough energy to do. in fact, if I was living alone, there is no telling how long it would have continued to grow for. I had taken some pictures of the beautiful, yet intrusive display of residential flora, and it was the only the very next day that it had been removed. out of my life, finally allowing for light to enter my room once more.
Almost 90 minutes of drifting ambience that recalls the mind-expanding New Age albums of the late 1980s.
The Monkey

I was incredibly excited about this film adaptation of Stephen King’s short story. I must have read this creepy, classic tale at least a dozen times over the past thirty-plus years. It started off well but lost momentum after thirty or forty minutes. It strayed too far from the original and lacked the same haunting quality as the short story. For me, it was incredibly disappointing.

I updated the spreadsheets for my 2025 savings plan, discovered an insightful book on syntax, completed a new image generation app while resolving a metadata issue, and began organizing my finances.
Amazon

Amazon’s decision to remove the option to download copies of purchased books is concerning. For many consumers, owning a product that has been fully paid for signifies an unbreakable right. The removal undermines the sense of ownership and reliability that buyers expect, limiting access to their personal digital libraries completely.
IPTCInfo
February 16, 2025
I initially encountered an issue where every time I saved an image's
metadata using IPTCInfo3, a duplicate backup file (with a tilde at the
end) was created, cluttering my directory. To resolve this, I installed the
latest version of IPTCInfo3 directly from GitHub, which includes an
overwrite option. I then updated my code in my application to call: ipt
c_ info. save (options=[ "overwrite" ]). That change successfully
prevented the creation of the unwanted backup file.
