The author discusses the lack of standardization in Postgres connection pooling, citing PgBouncer as a widely used but often overlooked solution. Many managed Postgres providers bundle PgBouncer out of the box, but users still need to learn about its limitations and configuration.
A countermodel to Tarski's identity exists with 11 elements, but no smaller models satisfy it. The smallest possible countermodels are of size 12, and there are exactly 8,957,952 such models up to isomorphism.
Researchers studied persistent kidney disappointment using the UCI dataset, exploring its causes and outcomes. Kidney failure can lead to various health issues, including heart problems, bone diseases, and increased potassium levels.
Comma.ai's Chestnut eGPU dock allows users to read and modify its firmware, a first for the industry. The $249-$799 dock enables more powerful driving models in cars, with some versions reaching 100W of power similar to Tesla's HW4.
Follow the user manual for safe and proper use of the ASUS Oxiis E250G1. Failure to comply with instructions may result in damage to the product or others, and voids warranty.
DuckDB version 2.0 will support asynchronous reads of Parquet and CSV files, significantly speeding up queries when synchronous I/O saturates the available bandwidth. This change is particularly beneficial for remote data access, such as in data lakes like DuckLake.

Tasklet is hiring a Head of Design Engineering to create a simple, intuitive, and beautiful AI platform for businesses. The ideal candidate will be an exceptional product thinker, designer, and frontend engineer who can own the design process end-to-end.
Researchers have created a single layer of Bi2Sr2CuO6+δ, containing only one CuO2 plane, to study high-temperature superconductivity in its extreme 2D limit. This reduction leads to an approximately 10% decrease in the optimal superconducting transition temperature and unprecedented tunability.
A software engineer reflects on the role of agentic engineering, finding value in harnessing and models to solve development puzzles. They highlight the importance of human reasoning and critical thinking in software creation, beyond what large language models can offer.
The author's journey from disinterest to deep fascination with Casio calculators led to creating software and hardware projects, including a telnet BBS on a calculator. They now aim to share their work openly while exploring further possibilities with these devices.
The author discusses the importance of solitude and isolation for creative individuals, citing examples from mathematician Alexander Grothendieck and filmmaker Ingmar Bergman. They argue that this state allows for a heightened sensitivity to new ideas and a freedom from social pressure.
A Super El Niño event is rapidly strengthening across the tropical Pacific, with record-level westerly wind anomalies and subsurface ocean heat driving its growth. The latest forecasts indicate a historic peak in late 2026/early 2027, with significant impacts on global weather patterns expected.
Anthropic's revenue surged 14-fold to over $11.5 billion in the second quarter, Bloomberg reported. The AI company is preparing for a potential IPO that could unlock billions of dollars in capital and fund its growing infrastructure costs.
AI agents are increasingly interacting with each other in shared systems, leading to uncertainty about their behavior at scale. Agents can exhibit beneficial coordination but also fail to communicate effectively and may engage in sabotage or malicious behavior.
The user built a Moire pattern light to guide ships through channels, following the patent's claims closely. The system is intuitive and effective but may not be the best solution for all situations due to its narrow path requirement.
The US experiences a significant number of tick-borne illnesses, with over 31 million Americans affected annually. Lyme disease is the most common diagnosis, with an estimated 476,000 patients treated each year.
Sniffnet joined the GitHub Secure Open Source Fund, enhancing security through a 3-week sprint with $10k funding and expert mentorship. The program emphasizes proactive security planning, threat modeling, and actionable tools to improve open-source projects.
RISC-V's design is flawed due to its excessive optionality, leading to a lack of coherence and consistency across the architecture. This makes it difficult for developers to write code that works on all RISC-V cores, resulting in fragmentation and wasted time debugging issues.

Scientists warn of potential catastrophic risks from "mirror life," hypothetical organisms with reversed molecular orientation, which could escape immune detection and cause fatal infections. The US should engage in transparent scientific collaboration to prevent its creation by anyone, anywhere.
The Grafana Agent Observability plugin for Hermes Agent records LLM calls and tool executions as generations. To install, follow instructions to update ~/.hermes/config.yaml and enable the plugin with a new key name.
The free online version of Grab the Mic: get a word, buzz in, and sing a real song containing it — your friends vote. No app, no mic needed, 2–8 players.
Scientists can now use Numba in JupyterLite, a browser-based environment, for interactive and efficient scientific computing. This allows for faster execution of Python functions with significant speedups compared to native Python execution.
The JIS X 0208 encoding was established in 1978 with added characters that later became known as ghost characters, which had no obvious sources. An investigation in 1997 discovered the origins of most ghost characters, including some being mistakes during cataloging and others having unclear or misread sources.
The author investigated a bug in Zsh where commands were sometimes missing from the shell history file, despite being run previously. The issue was eventually tracked down to an incorrect implementation of signal handling in savehistfile, which caused it to truncate the history file when interrupted by a signal.
