There were two things I yearned for in 1990. As a ten year old kid in the backseat, road trips from Colorado to Illinois meant hour after hour of staring at row after row of corn stalks. The boredom was palpable and the corn possibly responsible for a slight obsession with orderliness. If only there was a little TV that could help pass the time. Oh, and how Encyclopedia Britannica must ...

Hardware hotplug events on Linux, the gory details

To detect USB device plug/unplug events on Linux, libusb recommends using udev support, which is a mechanism that avoids race conditions by handling device events and rebroadcasting them to other programs. To listen to these rebroadcasted events without linking to libudev, one can use netlink sockets to receive messages from udev, which are sent with credentials and use a versioned packet ...

We extend Code World Models (CWMs), LLM-synthesized Python programs that predict environment dynamics, from deterministic games to stochastic combinatorial optimization. Given suboptimal trajectories of $(1{+}1)$-$\text{RLS}_k$, the LLM synthesizes a simulator of the ...
