Erin McCann, a lawyer, discovers two boxes of government documents connected to her family's past crimes. Her mother, Leah, had hidden the documents, revealing a life of deceit and crime by Erin's father, John.
49 mathematicians compiled 100 research-level math questions with known answers between April 1 and May 15, 2026. LLMs solved 98 questions in three stages, demonstrating their impressive mathematical reasoning capabilities.
The demo allows users to view multiple notes at once with tools and mode switching available. It was created using LLM tools due to the author's lack of mathematical background.
Meta notified 20,225 people whose Instagram accounts were hijacked through a flaw in its AI chatbot, allowing hackers to access account information and posts. The breach occurred from April 17 to this week, with Meta disabling the chatbot and instructing users to reset their passwords.
PawPrint is a deterministic .NET runtime that interprets IL and shims out BCL JIT intrinsics and native code. It uses probabilistic concurrency testing and maintains a rich internal model of the IL machine for time-travel debugging and control over history.
Modern LLMs use transformer blocks, tokenization, and embeddings to process text. They apply attention and feed-forward networks to generate text, using residual connections and layer normalization to stabilize the model.
Google will pay SpaceX $920 million per month for access to 110,000 NVIDIA GPUs and related components from October 2026 to June 2029. The deal is a short-term agreement to meet surging demand for Google's AI products, with a cancellation clause and reduced fees if access is delayed.
The US Pentagon has raised its counterintelligence threat level for Israel to the highest level due to concerns about Israel's increased spying on the US. The US is taking extra precautions when interacting with Israeli officials, but the two countries' intelligence-sharing remains intact.
The user created a Python library called micropython-wasm that executes Python code in a WebAssembly sandbox with controlled file access, network access, and memory limits. The library uses MicroPython and wasmtime, and the user has tested it with a plugin for Datasette Agent and is now seeking feedback and collaboration to improve and maintain the library.
A recent Linux kernel proposal to add "spawn templates" to optimize the fork() and exec() pattern has been rejected, but it may point to a new process-creation primitive in the future. The discussion highlights the need for a better process-creation mechanism, with some suggesting a native implementation of posix_spawn() and others proposing alternative approaches using existing system calls.
The user upgraded their Atari 400 to an 800XL in 1985, which improved their programming experience with a better keyboard and 64K of RAM. They created a utility program called DOSBOS, but it was rejected by ANALOG magazine due to its limitations as a BASIC program.
We are going to learn about Rust's procedural macros and implement one ourselves to represent a number as flags, with the ability to control which functions will be generated and to have the ability to write numbers between 0 and 7 to a flag. We will use the syn crate to parse Rust's syntax tree into a structured AST and the quote crate to convert the AST back into a TokenStream.
SpaceX was denied accelerated entry into the S&P 500 stock market index due to its unprofitability and high debt load. The decision may be a relief to investors concerned about exposure to SpaceX's AI and speculative plans.
Mbodi is building an embodied AI platform that enables robots to learn and operate like humans using natural language. The company is seeking an engineer to develop and deploy cutting-edge ML models and agentic AI systems for robot learning and behavior.
A customer’s Lambda was climbing to 9 GB and getting OOM-killed. We reduced the cache size to fix it. That made it worse. Here’s what we learned about Linux memory along the way. Among other things, we allow our customers to host ONNX models, running machine learning (ML) inference on AWS Lambda. One of our largest customers has 40 ONNX models, each around 250 MB. We cache the ONNX instances ...
Researchers unified decision trees and diffusion models through Global Trajectory Score Matching, revealing a shared optimization principle. This unification led to competitive results in tabular data generation and neural network distillation.
The CPython Steering Council is requesting a Standards Track PEP to formalize the JIT compiler's status. They ask that no new JIT development land on main until a PEP is accepted, with a six-month window for submission and resolution.
Each digit represents a different colour channel: red, green, and then blue. the restriction has made me more open to errors and it's totally fine. 900 has full red channel (9) and nothing in green (0) or blue (0). so in my theme, 00 is... off-black. so you can just use lookup table if you want. click here to download the theme - it's free to use and works
Researchers at the University of Rochester developed a new solar-thermal desalination process that produces fresh water efficiently without leaving behind brine. The technology uses superwicking solar panels to extract nearly 100 percent of salts in solid form, potentially providing an abundant supply of table salt and precious minerals like lithium.
The user purchased a broken Sigma 45mm f/2.8 lens on eBay for a low price, but it had electrical issues and no electronic controls worked. The user successfully repaired the lens by replacing a blown fuse on the control PCB, which was likely caused by excessive current draw from the lens's motor controller.
Software engineers are overemphasizing code quality, while users care about product functionality. AI-assisted development can deploy products faster, allowing for quicker iteration and improvement.
The user initially dismissed AI models like DALL-E and ChatGPT as parlor tricks but had a series of "Oh shit" moments as they realized the potential of these models to solve real problems and change their approach to development. These moments included using Claude code to generate a Zillow description, building a web tool to sort media files, and using AI to translate code and track down ...
xlovecam's jiggle physics standard simulates soft-body deformation with damped spring bones and weight-painted physics. It's a renderer-agnostic engine that can be used with any renderer that can multiply and add vectors.
When interacting with public figures or others who often give canned responses, notice if you're getting a pre-prepared answer and try to ask a new or thought-provoking question to break the cache. This can lead to more interesting and original conversations.
