LWN is increasing subscription prices by 20% due to rising costs and inflation, effective September 15. The price increase will help maintain the site's independence from advertising and support its continued growth.
Two web-grounded models were asked to provide recommendations in 380 software categories, with 7,534 citations retrieved from their URLs. The majority of these citations point at domains ranked lower than #100,000 or not in the top million.
Users can opt out of Mistral's model training programs at any time, with Vibe users opting in by default and Enterprise customers opted out by default. Users can disable the toggle to prevent data sharing for both Vibe and API services.
We have good news about the Pixel 11. It still has at least bare minimum support for MTE at a hardware level. We think they removed most of the hardware acceleration from the CPU cache to save money. They ruined the performance so it ended up being fully disabled in firmware. It may still be usable.
The Commodore 64, launched in September 1982, was the best-selling computer of all time with over 12 million units sold. It had a significant impact on its users' lives and careers, including the author's own experience with programming and IT.
A mathematician discusses Bridson's algorithm for generating Poisson disk distributions, which efficiently places points in a grid with a minimum distance between them. The algorithm has been improved upon by adding parental optimization and changing the distribution of distances to generate more random configurations.
Older adults' brains may blend memories together, causing mix-up errors, rather than simply losing memory accuracy. This blending effect is linked to stronger similarity in brain patterns between learning and recall phases.
The article argues that recycling isn't always the most environmentally friendly option, and landfilling waste can be a cleaner and cheaper alternative. Recycling is often energy-intensive and may not pay off in terms of environmental cost for many materials.
Every child is taught that landfill is the worst place our trash can end up. It is the sad consequence of a failure to recycle: a mountain of waste leaking chemicals and smells, blighting the land forever. What if that picture is wrong? What if landfill, properly done, is actually one of the cleanest, cheapest, and most environmentally sensible things we can do with our waste? It turns out ...
The author initially dismissed smart telescopes due to their high price and limited capabilities, but after purchasing a ZWO Seestar series telescope, they discovered its potential for astrophotography. The device can autonomously find targets, track them, and produce impressive images with minimal processing required.
The Nederlandsche Bank has moved 86 tons of gold from US and Canada to London, increasing its share in the city. This move aims to improve crisis readiness by spreading risk and making Dutch gold more marketable.
The author started a blog 3.5 years ago to share Elixir experiments and optics knowledge, which helped them attend conferences and meet friends. They now question the value of human creativity in programming communities dominated by LLMs.
Modern AI systems excel in domains they seem poorly suited for, despite being based on continuous vector representations. Researchers propose that these vectors implicitly realize symbolic structure, allowing them to achieve impressive performance in cognitive domains.
The user found a useful jq alias to format JSON in the clipboard, but needed to add error handling for non-JSON text. They created an updated alias with error handling using xclip and jq commands.

Tellie is building AI to run customer-facing operations with agents that act, understand, and improve. The company prioritizes ownership, shared responsibility, conviction over compromise and agency over complacency in a merit-driven environment.
Quasar 438B is a flagship reasoning model that scores 43 on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, outperforming other European models. It returns 500 tokens in 15.3 seconds and supports multi-step tasks with planning, tool use, code execution, and large context.
ArtificialAnalysis benchmarks LLM intelligence and cost, offering a Pareto frontier of performance vs. price. The plot's logarithmic scale and reliance on datacenter pricing obscure cost differences and overlook cheaper alternatives.
The author advises using std::move rarely, citing return value optimization (RVO) and copy elision as the preferred methods to avoid unnecessary copies and moves. With C++23, implicit move is now supported in both cases where it was previously required or not possible.
Passkeys offer phishing-resistant, secure authentication by using cryptographic keys stored on devices. They are supported by Microsoft Entra and provide multi-factor security without relying on passwords.
Insurance claims adjusters overwhelmingly dislike AI, citing 98% of negative reviews on Glassdoor. They fear AI is replacing them and causing errors that lead to incorrect payouts and customer frustration.
WebLLM is a high-performance in-browser LLM inference engine that brings language model inference directly onto web browsers with hardware acceleration. Everything runs inside the browser with no server support and is accelerated with WebGPU. WebLLM is fully compatible with OpenAI API. That is, you can use the same OpenAI API on any open source models locally, with functionalities including ...
This tool checks files for signs of Claude's involvement in creating or editing them, providing a C2PA content credential to verify its origin. A result indicates whether the content was processed by Claude, without revealing its substance or authenticity.
Carrying heavy loads has been solved by various cultures worldwide, using different materials and designs. These traditional systems often prioritize body alignment, repairability, and simplicity over modern pack features.
Humanoid robots are making progress, but experts say there's still a long road ahead before they can be used in real-world applications. Despite impressive demos, robots struggle with tasks like manipulation and generalization.
Dyson introduced the CameraJet™ toothbrush, using a camera and AI to identify gaps between teeth for precision cleaning. It combines machine learning, fluid dynamics, and advanced brushing tech to improve oral hygiene.
Feature flags can be overhyped and introduce unnecessary complexity, security risks, and technical debt. Hardcoding feature flags in a simple JSON file is often the best approach, providing reliability and safety without the added overhead of management software.
