Recursive Filters: SMA, EMA, Low‑Pass, and a Tiny Kalman

https://www.staszewski.xyz/images/recursive_average.png
The article discusses three types of recursive filters: Simple Moving Average (SMA), Exponential Moving Average (EMA), and a simplified 1D Kalman filter, which can be used to smooth noisy measurements with limited compute and memory. These filters trade off between noise suppression and responsiveness, with SMA being simple and robust, EMA being the default for streaming, and Kalman adding ...

https://hatchet.run/assets/alexander-DJQH1e6h.jpg
The author searched for the first instance of an idempotency key and found it in a 1984 paper by Birrell and Nelson, which documented an implementation of a Remote Procedure Call package with a call identifier for each RPC. This is the earliest known example of an idempotency key that meets the author's criteria.

Recursion is lying to you

https://opengraph.b-cdn.net/production/images/74740c4e-d40d-49be-83fb-7170084dbda1.png?token=3Pxj4Ccc7Z93zXgN6-HhJM8U3lpcnqtTs8xNIPoUzF4&height=614&width=620&expires=33290472379
Recursion can be elegant and clean but often runs into physical limits due to stack overflow, even with correct base cases and tail recursion. To ensure stack safety, it's best to use iteration for user-driven or data-driven depths and reserve recursion for small, bounded depths where clarity improves.

I sent Claude Opus 5 '–-' and it wrote me 5k tokens about a cartographer

https://austinsnerdythings.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/Screenshot-2026-07-28-142318.png
Austin's Nerdy Things tested a frontier AI model, Opus 5, and found that sending it three unspaced dashes triggers it to write entire documents, sometimes with coherent content. The model's behavior is due to its tendency to treat the conversation as a text file it's mid-way through, and can be mitigated by adding a system prompt that establishes conversational context.

Obfuscation (Part II): Diamond IO

Diamond io uses two modifications to be just as efficient as functional encryption. (g-1bg) is doing all the work here, but we can avoid this rule for additions and for multiplications by known values. this makes our work challenging, and makes the output very "spiky' around the last column. to improve concrete efficiency, we need to remove the need for generating the bgg+ encodings
