REA is used to inspect and understand programs, allowing users to explain, change or rebuild them. REA helps analyze code and settings by reading the script's update function and speed settings in a running game.
Computer programs cannot make decisions, so blaming them for outcomes is unfair. Companies like OAI/Anthropic are making a deliberate choice to enable problematic behavior with their models.
A Telegram link can be used to inject malicious commands, allowing an attacker to steal files from a victim's account by clicking on the link. The attack exploits a vulnerability in Telegram Desktop's handling of URLs and file paths.
The Deno team is joining Cloudflare to further develop a shared platform for building servers, combining compute, storage, and communication capabilities. This move will simplify server software development and make it more accessible to users.
Sweep to survive in the action-packed, AAA reboot of the classic puzzle game.
Researchers at Kyushu University created a VR system that allows users to experience an expansive view without wearing a headset, using aerial imaging optics and a specially designed chair. The system enables users to look around the virtual world in real-time, reducing VR sickness and opening up new possibilities for immersive experiences.
A research intern built a diffusion model for market data, finding that fully continuous models don't work due to the discrete nature of market events. The model uses flow matching and atom smoothing to better capture the blend of continuous and discrete features in market data.
News carrier-explode 2.0 has an improved backend, and users can contribute to decoders. The API provides JSON data or daily CC0 datasets for comparing carriers' features across different versions and networks.
We raised a significant series A funding led by Andreessen Horowitz, which will be used to enhance Jev's features and infrastructure for building smart software. This investment aims to take the platform to the next level and provide better tools for creating effective AI solutions.
Eurydice is a Rust compiler project that converts Rust code to clean C code, useful for high-assurance software and environments with a C compiler but no working Rust compiler. It preserves the structure of the code while removing constructs that exist in Rust but not in C.
Researchers found that minimally and highly processed meals with the same nutritional profile produced distinct metabolic responses, including higher insulin release and energy expenditure in ultraprocessed meals. The study suggests that food processing affects how the body and brain respond to food beyond just carbohydrates, fat, and protein.
CUBE Type is a tiny playground for isometric typography. Type a few words, pick a composition and a palette, and your text comes out as stacked blocks.
A software engineer used AI to search millions of historical records, uncovering a forgotten meteorite report, three lost rhinos, and unrecorded volcano eruptions. The discoveries were made possible by an open-sourced research pipeline that utilized various AI models to filter results and automate manual steps.

The writer switched from Emacs to Bear due to fatigue, but later returned to Emacs after discovering Denote. They are now considering a sync/bridge between Denote and Bear for seamless note syncing.
Thomas Hales discusses the importance of formal proof in mathematics, highlighting Lean as a powerful tool for automating this process. He notes that recent autoformalization projects have made significant progress in formalizing various mathematical theorems and theories.
This package mounts a Proton Drive, listing files and folders from metadata without downloading content. It uses a "lazy" approach to save bandwidth and disk space, with remote changes invalidating cached listings.
American companies use "ingredient splitting" to list less prominent ingredients first, misleading consumers. This technique is allowed by the FDA and is used in various popular American foods.
Oxide, a computer hardware company, has reached a milestone by paying income tax due to its profitable operations. The company secured $445M in funding from investors including Atreides Management and AMD to satisfy its large order backlog and continue growth.
A modern operating system's build system, compiler, and package manager can share information to optimize program performance, disk space, and software development. This integration enables whole-program optimization, incremental compilation on a function level, and atomic upgrades with minimal disruption.
Researchers studied cat-human communication, finding that cats respond positively to slow blinking and may use it as a form of emotional communication. Cats deliver more eye narrowing movements when their owners slow blink at them than when the owner is present in the room but not delivering this stimulus.
The Atari Falcon030 was a computer system released in 1992, featuring a Motorola 68030 CPU and digital signal processor, but it was cancelled in 1993. The Falcon hardware design has been licensed to other companies, including C-Lab, which produced their own versions of the machine.
Steve Jobs' Top 100 email, Sequoia's YouTube memo, Netflix's culture deck, Facebook's Little Red Book and 50 more rare memos and forgotten books. Free to read.
The OpenAI announcement has left the mathematical community in a state of shock, with many feeling overwhelmed and uncertain about how to adapt. The sheer scale of the results is breathtaking, but concerns have been raised about the lack of transparency, quality control, and human understanding behind these solutions.
Many creatives reject AI due to concerns over copyright and artistic value, while programmers see it as a tool for functional programming.
