You could have invented transformers from memory

https://alexwang.ai/images/kea/painting.webp
The author discusses how large language models can recall obscure facts from every corner of the world, and how this ability is similar to a memory store that holds key-value pairs. The author then develops an intuitive way to look at linear maps, MLPs, and self-attention as different kinds of memory stores.

JPEG XL vs. AVIF for web use-cases

https://jakearchibald.com/c/me-cat-Bnavw-ti.avif
AVIF generally produces smaller files than JPEG XL, but the gap narrows at maximum effort settings. AVIF is faster to encode and decode, uses less memory, and has better support for progressive rendering. However, JPEG XL can make existing JPEGs 9-20% smaller without further loss and is faster to decode at very high qualities in some browsers.

C++26: The New Debugging Header
