Early Christian Writings is a comprehensive site with translations and commentary on Christian texts before 325 AD. It offers browsing by range or category, search, and can be bookmarked for future reference.
Language models are not yet reliable context learners, failing on most tasks despite having access to all required information. Current models rely on parametric knowledge and struggle with inductive reasoning, context length, and complexity.
The user suggests using FORTH and associative languages for transformer architectures, allowing local edits and efficient generation. They benchmarked prefix and postfix notations on parity trees, finding postfix outperforms prefix and Opus outperforms Haiku.
Heroku transitions to sustaining engineering model focusing on stability and security. Customers can continue using Heroku with no changes to pricing, billing, or functionality.
Researchers at Claude have released Opus 4.6, an AI model that can find high-severity vulnerabilities in code at scale. The model can read and reason about code like a human researcher.

User is learning about neural networks from basics, focusing on visualization to understand how they work. They explain a simple use case of recognizing handwritten numbers using neural networks with input, processing, and output.
Ecologist Alison Anastasio and her team, the Slag Queens, study unique ecosystems on former industrial sites in the Calumet Region, discovering rare plants and potential ecological value. They argue that these sites should be preserved and managed as novel ecosystems, rather than restored to their original state.
Apple partnered with Taboola to serve ads in Apple News, but users are seeing scam ads that look like they were generated by AI. The ads are often from recently registered domains, raising concerns about Apple's and Taboola's ad vetting process.
To work effectively with an AI system, document project requirements, specifications, and architecture in detail, including coding standards, best practices, and design patterns. Use standardized formats and visual aids to communicate complex structures and workflows, and develop efficient debug systems to simplify the process for the AI to identify and resolve code issues.
This Slack API provides token-efficient output and zero-config auth for LLMs. It offers various commands for fetching messages, threads, users, and files from Slack.
Virtual texturing is a technique that allows massive textures to be rendered in real-time by only loading the parts of the texture that are currently visible on screen, reducing memory and bandwidth usage. This technique is effective in scenarios where texture size vastly exceeds GPU memory, but is not a general upgrade path and is typically used in narrow, data-dominated scenarios.
Smooth CLI is a browser for AI agents that uses a natural language interface to simplify tasks. It allows agents to focus on goals rather than low-level actions like clicking buttons.
A vulnerability in Temporal's ExecuteMultiOperation endpoint allowed attackers to bypass tenant isolation and inject shadow policies. The bug was fixed in v1.27 by enforcing a namespace match between outer and inner operations.
Horizons is a Rust-first runtime for shipping agent systems with event-driven orchestration and auditable actions. It's free to use, modify, and redistribute under a license that converts to Apache 2.0 after two years.
User created a tool to securely share files with friends using Shamir's Secret Sharing, allowing any 3 friends to recover the file together. The tool provides a simple, self-contained way for friends to collaborate in file recovery.
