The Lamentable Later Life of Lemmings

https://www.filfre.net/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/lemmings-explode.gif
The Lemmings franchise, created by DMA Design in the early 1990s, experienced a brief period of success before declining due to poor sequels and changes in market expectations. The series' momentum was squandered with games like Lemmings 2: The Tribes and Lemmings 3D, which failed to live up to the original's charm.

Deodands put a price on objects that caused death

https://daily.jstor.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/where_did_all_the_public_bathrooms_go_1050x700.jpg
In 1829, hundreds of people died when a floor collapsed at the Norfolk Arms Hotel, and their families received only 5 shillings from the jury as compensation due to an outdated law called deodand. The concept of deodand was eventually abolished in 1846 but its legacy lives on as a way to think about accountability for nonhuman entities like AI systems that may cause harm.

If math is more than proof, we need to better celebrate the rest of it

https://terrytao.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/image-1.png
Grant Sanderson proposes elevating the status of "motivated explanations" in mathematics, which involve explaining mathematical concepts and ideas in a clear and relatable way. He suggests giving academic credit to these types of explanations similar to what is given for generating new proofs.

Compiler-style optimization for drawing via Skia

https://arxiv.org/static/browse/0.3.4/images/arxiv-logo-fb.png
A rasterization library like Skia is inefficient due to complex semantics and execution models. A formal semantics, $\mu$Skia, in Lean helps optimize the library by identifying and replacing sub-optimal code patterns.

Researchers have found new evidence suggesting hidden chambers beyond Tutankhamun's tomb in Egypt, potentially holding the remains of Nefertiti. A team of archaeologists used geophysical surveys to detect a 2-metre-wide corridor and artificial structures that pre-date Tutankhamun's burial.

How to Write with an LLM

https://sockpuppet.org/blog/2026/09/17/how-to-write-with-an-llm/workshop.jpg
A writer shares two rules to use Large Language Models (LLMs) effectively, avoiding "LLM-creep" that can make writing sound unnatural. By using LLMs as a copyeditor rather than a ghostwriter and following these rules, writers can improve their work without losing their unique voice.
