kitty has been updated with numerous features, including support for Custom Shaders, docked windows, and improved performance. The update also includes new options for customizing kitty's behavior, such as remapping modifiers and controlling how padding strips are colored in splits layouts.
The C++ Standardization Committee's DIS ballot for C++26 was disapproved due to concerns over the "contracts" feature, which requires a two-thirds majority. The outcome has left the future of C++29 uncertain and sparked questions about rebuilding trust within the committee.
The user's 2014 Renault Latitude car has a TomTom Carminat LIVE navigation system that requires a legitimate SD card with specific data to function, including the time settings. The user successfully exploited a kernel vulnerability using the LOG command and core_pattern string manipulation to execute arbitrary code on the rootfs.
Stringman is a robotic arm designed to navigate and manipulate objects in a room, using cable-driven architecture and overhead lines for movement. It offers an open-source platform with customizable control software and AI models, allowing users to create their own workflows and behaviors.
The author studied the original Unix sources from 1973, specifically how they handled memory allocation and management in C. They found that early versions of Unix used a linear allocator with explicit memory regions, but later editions introduced more complex allocation algorithms and garbage collection.
This documentation explains PostgreSQL's subsystems and their features, aiming to provide a comprehensive understanding of the database system. The author is seeking remote positions focused on applying ML and AI technologies to DBMS due to personal reasons of moving to Japan.
A detective game set in real cities, where players search for clues and solve cases. The game features six languages, five training levels, and a passport that stamps the solved city upon completion.
Researchers have identified age-associated differences in tumor composition and gene activity, which may explain why colorectal cancer is more aggressive in younger adults. The study provides a foundation for understanding these differences and exploring future treatments for young-onset colorectal cancer.
Durations are estimated until the YouTube metadata is fetched, so some programs will run short ("please stand by") or get cut off. Keys: ↑↓ channel · 0-9 tune · G guide · F picture · M mute · C captions · I info · T theater · double-click screen for fullscreen · P power
The author created a programming language called catlang, which compiles to SQL. The language uses category theory concepts and has features like loops that are implemented using recursion.
Fujifilm invests $63 million to increase magnetic tape production fivefold due to growing demand from cloud giants and data centers. The company attributes this surge to the spread of generative AI, which produces exponential growth in data needs worldwide.
Jimi Halloween is a Japanese festival where people dress up in mundane costumes, started by adults at Daily Portal Z in 2014. The event has been covered since 2018 and features humorous everyday outfits on social media using #地味ハロウィン.
Researchers Rikiya Takehi and colleagues demonstrated that large language models can interpret and modify neural network weights, a capability dubbed Weight-Space Programming. The model successfully identified game behaviors from raw weights without executing code or using tools.
Safari 27.3 beta introduces Adaptive Dark Mode, which automatically converts light websites to dark mode for a consistent user experience. The feature is designed to work with most web pages and can be enabled by setting system appearance to dark in Safari settings.
The author, a research engineer at Salesforce AI Research, reflects on their experience with large language models (LLMs) and artificial intelligence (AI) tools over the past year. They have seen significant changes in how they use AI, from managing multiple agents to drafting a personal AI policy.
User found Postman plugin and startup hook causing issues, including authentication warnings and routing API work through Codex skills. They request a rollback of the auto-installed integrations to prevent similar problems in the future.

Figma's agent helps designers make edits to existing work, combining speed and quality. The model uses a combination of supervised fine-tuning and reinforcement learning to improve its performance on Figma editing tasks.
Researchers are struggling to create a digital "task commons" for posttraining AI models, as the raw data needed is often ephemeral and difficult to capture. A pretraining commons was largely created by accident through human activity on the internet.
This book provides a compact introduction to the mathematical foundations of generative AI, connecting major families of models. It aims to make generative modelling more accessible while retaining its mathematical substance for researchers and practitioners.
AI stocks fell overnight after Democrats won the Texas gubernatorial race, seen as a key tech hub. The losses were exacerbated by existing pressure on the AI trade due to concerns over data center spending and potential moratoriums.
Kairos is an open-source alternative to Sardine, Sift, Riskified and SEON for real-time fraud decisions with decision models catching fraud before labels are available. It combines Grayson's unstructured data analysis with traditional machine learning models like logistic regression and gradient-boosted trees.
Microsoft is releasing a Windows 11 preview update that addresses user complaints about the right-click menu, allowing users to customize it. The update also includes Cloud Rebuild, a recovery option that can reinstall Windows from the cloud without needing external media.
The author discusses how to create a network of interesting people through public collections of work, and the importance of subtle Easter eggs and curiosity traps to engage readers. This can be achieved by including tangents, puzzles, and links that cater to different audiences in the same piece.
The author explains that the "Astra can read and write weights" post is misleading, as it doesn't actually demonstrate a single technique to analyze or modify network weights. The experiments involve different tasks and techniques, including writing code snippets to analyze or modify weights.
The author experimented with option types in a low-level language, Copper, and found it introduced new concepts that made the language more complex. They considered simplifying to just handling T|Nothing for errors.
ATS is a syntax-rich and feature-rich programming language that covers core features like functional programming, types, and theorem-proving. The book assumes no prior programming experience but may be dense for those without considerable coding background.
