The linear theory of innovation is flawed as it assumes understanding precedes progress, whereas in reality, progress often comes from trial and error. This is evident in research and development where incomplete understanding is common and breakthroughs often result from observing and trying new things.

A mathematician used ChatGPT 5.5 Pro to improve the upper bound on a problem in additive number theory from exponential to polynomial in time, with the AI producing a result that was almost certainly correct according to a human expert. The mathematician suggests that the era of human mathematicians solving problems independently may be coming to an end, and that the future of mathematics ...
let-go is a Clojure-family language compiler and VM for Go that produces a single ~10MB binary with ~7ms cold start. It supports standalone executables, WASM web apps, and embeds cleanly as a scripting layer for Go programs.
Large Language Models (LLMs) degrade documents during long workflows, corrupting 25% of content on average. Current LLMs are unreliable delegates, introducing severe errors that silently corrupt documents over time.
The author is writing a history of Visual Basic on EvilGeniusLabs.ca, focusing on the people and lineage behind the language, rather than just its technical aspects or Microsoft management. The series will cover the development of Visual Basic from its roots in Dartmouth BASIC to its release in 1991, with a focus on lesser-known individuals who contributed to the project.
The user is creating a custom programming language called pslang for modding their game, aiming for a low-level, imperative language with a static type system and seamless C interop.

rlisp is a LISP frontend for Rust that compiles directly to Rust code. It uses s-expressions for syntax and compiles to native Rust with no runtime or GC.
Drop a needle of length $L$ onto a hardwood floor with floorboards of width $W$. On average, the needle crosses $2L / \pi W$ lines between floorboards, a classic result of Buffon. But that $\pi$ in the formula means there’s a circle hiding somewhere. The trick to finding it? Bend the needle into a noodle. The usual approach to Buffon’s problem involves a double integral. Respectable, but this ...
The user reflects on the early days of the internet and how the ideology of cyberlibertarianism, which emphasized individual freedom and deregulation, led to the creation of a platform that prioritizes profit over people and has devastating consequences. The user argues that it's time to face the facts that this ideology has failed and that we need to evolve and find a new ethical code to ...
The author argues that LLMorphism, the belief humans think like LLMs, may spread due to biased inferences and cultural influence. This bias could lead to undervaluing human cognition and overvaluing machine capabilities.
