The working class must break the capitalist system's hold through self-reliance and resistance. This is a fundamental fact for social reconstruction and the use-value of the kingdom to the working class.
An AI system has autonomously resolved the planar unit distance problem, a longstanding open problem in combinatorial geometry. The proof uses algebraic number theory to create unit-length differences among points in the plane.
GitHub was breached after an employee installed a malicious VS Code extension, exposing 3,800 internal repositories. The company removed the extension and secured the device, with no evidence of customer data being affected.
Starship's 12th flight test is set to launch on May 21, featuring a new generation of vehicles and engines. The test aims to demonstrate launch, ascent, and landing capabilities, as well as test new Starlink satellites and heat shield technology.
The tool simulates LLM throughput by rendering code and reasoning sentences at varying token rates. It approximates BPE-style tokenization, showing how different content types affect perceived performance.
Qwen3.7-Max is a versatile agent foundation model designed for the agent era, capable of writing and debugging code, automating office workflows, and sustaining autonomous execution. It excels in coding, office automation, and long-horizon tasks, demonstrating strong performance across various benchmarks.
PopuLoRA is a system that trains co-evolving populations of teacher and student large language models to generate and solve verifiable tasks, resulting in a self-adaptive curriculum that keeps expanding throughout training. This approach outperforms single-agent self-play on code and math benchmarks, suggesting a practical path for self-play and self-improving systems that can generate part ...
The user's iOS app, Inkwell, has been repeatedly rejected by Apple due to various issues including design problems, lack of reporting and blocking features, and trademark concerns. The user has made numerous changes and appeals, but is still waiting to hear back from Apple, citing concerns about the company's use of its control over iOS app distribution to enforce a trademark that has been ...
Qian Xuesen, a Chinese scientist, was deported to China in 1955 after being accused of Communist ties in the US. He went on to develop China's space and nuclear programs, creating technologies that now threaten US naval dominance.
Mozilla is disabling asm.js by default in Firefox 148 and plans to remove it due to WebAssembly's success and maintenance costs. Users are encouraged to recompile asm.js content to WebAssembly for faster execution and smaller binaries.
The user is designing a virtual machine with a small stack and exploring techniques to optimize its performance, including specialising primitives for a restricted stack size and using indirect jumps to reduce data shuffling. They are using SBCL to generate domain-specific machine code and experimenting with different control flow primitives, including unconditional jumps, calls, and ...
Sharla Boehm, a math teacher turned computer programmer, created a groundbreaking simulation in the 1960s that laid the foundation for the modern internet. Her work, known as "hot potato routing," allowed messages to be sent through computers without relying on central nodes, making it a crucial technology for the development of the internet.
Google and other AI companies have been updating their policies to address the issue of AI manipulation, but experts say it's still a serious problem and people are finding new ways to fool the system. The best defence against AI manipulation is to be cautious and remember that AI tools can give biased or inaccurate information, so it's essential to verify the information through multiple sources.
A 1,600-year-old Roman-era tomb in Egypt contained pages from Homer's Iliad. The ancient Egyptians valued Greek literature, using it as a cultural passport and even crediting it with curative properties.
Google Cloud suspended Railway's production account, causing an 8-hour platform-wide outage. Railway is making changes to prevent similar incidents, including removing Google Cloud dependencies and extending high availability database shards.
Electrical signalling across distinct populations of brain cells underpins cognitive and emotional function. However, approaches that selectively regulate electrical signalling between two cellular components of a mammalian neural circuit remain sparse. Here we engineered an electrical synapse composed of two connexin proteins1 found in Morone americana (white perch fish)—connexin 34.7 and ...
Meta restricted Facebook and Instagram accounts of NGOs and activists in Saudi Arabia and UAE at the request of the governments, violating freedom of expression and access to information. The undersigned organisations call on Meta to be transparent about its human rights assessments and notify affected users with specific details about the restricted content.
Shen-Backpressure is a tool that uses a small, statically-typed Lisp to enforce invariants in production software by lowering them into guard types in the target language. This approach provides deterministic signals that tell you whether the artifact has the shape you intend, making it a high-leverage tool for production AI coding loops.
LoRA is a method to fine-tune large language models by adding small adapter weight matrices that modify the original weight matrices. This approach solves a different optimization problem than full fine-tuning, where the solution weights are regularized towards the frozen base model instead of zero.
Policymakers around the world are advancing age assurance proposals to protect children and teens online. Some approaches restrict minors’ access to certain services or content, while others would require devices, operating systems, or app stores to collect age information and pass age signals to apps and websites. These proposals are driven by serious concerns, but without appropriate ...
Node.js 26 is released with Temporal API enabled by default, V8 engine updated to 14.6, and Undici to 8.0.2. It will be the Current release for six months before entering long-term support in October.
A national investigation by Beyond Plastics found that none of the tracked Starbucks cold-beverage cups ended up at a recycling facility, instead going to landfills and incinerators. The findings contradict Starbucks' claims that its single-use polypropylene cups are "widely recyclable" and highlight the need for the company to prioritize plastic-free alternatives.
Two AI coding skills design and run claim-driven tests for distributed systems, producing a test plan and findings report with 9-state verdicts. The skills work with various agents and reuse the system's toolbox, ensuring safety, durability, and idempotency.
Something went wrong, but don’t fret — let’s give it another shot. Some privacy related extensions may cause issues on x.com. Please disable them and try again.
Github's fragmentation is inevitable as users move to alternatives like Codeberg, self-hosted Forgejo, and Gitlab. A vouching system like Hashimoto's Ghostty could set the tone for how Github's decline happens, requiring a consistent username and barrier of entry to ensure high-quality contributors.
