Notice how VIM no longer asks for you to donate to children in Uganda?
"Dear VIM community
Many of you have known Bram Moolenaar, who sadly passed away in 2023. Some of you also know that he was passionate about his charity ICCF Holland, finding many ways to collect funds to sponsor the education of marginalised children in Uganda at the Kibaale Childrens’ Centre. Many of you contributed regularly or incidentally; big or small, all your donations have been transferred to Uganda to support the education of children. The extra donations we received in 2023 after Bram’s passing have been used to set up two school libraries and launch a study fund for children who want to pursue higher education.
With the loss of Bram, we realize we can no longer sustain the charity for the long term. After discussions with Bram’s family and our sister charity Kuwasha in Canada, we agreed to transfer all activities of ICCF Holland to Kuwasha, and dissolve ICCF Holland in 2025.
We are still receiving donations from VIM users which are highly appreciated! All donations are transferred to Uganda. However, we will close our accounts later this year. The work in Uganda will certainly continue. If you want to continue sponsoring the charity in Uganda, whether it is because you appreciate VIM, or you want to donate in memory of Bram, please send your donations to Kuwasha. All donations will be transferred to Kibaale Children’s Centre, in the same way as ICCF Holland has been doing in the past 30 years.
You can send your donations to Kuwasha through the following means:
Thank you so much for your support over the years! You certainly have made a huge difference in the lives of many children in Uganda.
Yours sincerely,
Peter Ploeger and Helena Posthumus
Board members of ICCF Holland

Why it’s so hard to use AI to diagnose cancer
The latest effort, from the Mayo Clinic, holds some clues.

Wow.
︀︀
︀︀Just made my first AI video game with Google’s Genie 3!
︀︀
︀︀The prompt: "Make me a AAAA Bethesda-style space RPG about exploring moons. Focus entirely on rock textures, ignore actual gameplay content."
︀︀
︀︀The gaming industry has never been so cooked.

Strong agree. Already told my fianceé that I would never smoke a cigarette, therefore I will never eat fast food and ultra processed slop again.

Anthropic spent $20000 in API to make a C compiler for a "Vibe coding" demonstration on how good their new model (Claude 4.6) is. One problem though, it doesn't work and cannot even compile a "Hello, World" All of its specifications are hallucinated up. Congratulations!
