Canadian PM Mark Carney welcomes EU's proposal for Canada to become its first associate member, calling for closer cooperation on defence and energy security. The move is seen as a positive step towards strengthening ties between the two regions amid global challenges.
The Servo project's Josh Bowman-Matthews has been working part-time to improve the contributor experience, funded by monthly donations. He made significant contributions, including fixing test failures and rewriting the JS engine integration.
The author fine-tuned an open NER model called GLiNER on a large dataset of Reddit comments labeled by Gemini, achieving 0.83 F1 score and material recall of 0.911.
NVIDIA is developing native GPU programming in Rust, with two tracks: SIMT and Tile, to improve performance and safety. The projects aim to make GPU programming easier for the Rust community.
The Chaos Computer Club is hosting 40C3, Europe's biggest hacker party and conference, from December 27-30, 2026. The event aims to promote a more combative spirit and community through talks, art, music and performances.
The author wrote a 174-line PHP polyfill for the http_build_url() function in 2014, which has been installed nearly 20 million times and is still used by many websites. The author has now deprecated it due to its age and potential security risks.
My personal website, portfolio, and blog.
A 4B model was trained using supervised fine-tuning and agentic reinforcement learning to produce Postgres query plans that beat Postgres's default plans, achieving a 44.7% latency reduction across 113 join-heavy queries. The model learned the harness language of the qo-agent harness through off-policy distillation and reinforcement learning, resulting in a geometric mean speedup of 1.81x and ...
A physicist discusses how mathematics is a useful tool in describing the universe, but recent advances have led to a shift from simplicity to mathematical beauty. He speculates that future developments will unify mathematics and physics, allowing for a complete description of the universe using mathematical equations.
Manticore allows users to build search over internal documentation by adding a chunk_strategy option to a vector column, which splits documents into chunks and embeds each one for more accurate search results. The strategy can be set to truncate, mean, fixed, recursive, or sentence-based chunking with various overlap settings and max_tokens limits to optimize performance for different ...
Training metrics of the mimo-v2.6-pro and mimo-v2.6-flash reinforcement-learning runs, live from the trainer's logs.
The author reminisces about playing "Afterlife" 27 years ago, a game that combined SimCity with Heaven and Hell. They share their thoughts on tactics and mechanics, including strategies for managing souls, roads, buildings, and vibes in both Heaven and Hell.
The Neovim project received a 10 Bitcoin donation in 2023, worth approximately $800,000. The last transaction was made in 2019, suggesting the funds have been unused for nearly seven years.
The author shares valuable small nuggets of knowledge that can boost engineering productivity, such as shortcuts for tasks like starting a simple server or searching terminal history. These tiny tricks often require minimal mental infrastructure and can significantly ease work.
An interactive online guide for the Z3 theorem prover with the ability to execute Z3 in the browser.
A coding-agent skill audits codebases by orchestrating isolated agents through reconnaissance, coverage-led hunting, and independent record verification to identify vulnerabilities. The skill uses prior ledgers and findings to target gaps in the audit process.
A Raspberry Pi-based e-ink bird frame uses AI for real-time bird detection, displaying hand-cut 1800s illustrations of birds heard in the garden. The project is still in development and welcomes contributions to improve its features and artwork.
Memory allocation algorithms can be categorized into different types, including buddy systems and arena-based memory pools, with varying performance characteristics. These algorithms aim to minimize fragmentation and optimize memory usage for multiple threads and processes.
The author shares their experience with data loss and the importance of having a backup system in place, including snapshots and deduplication. They discuss various methods for rotating backups to ensure efficient storage usage.
Researchers developed BITCOS, a distribution-adaptive layout for ternary Large Language Models. It stores weights more compactly than five-trit packing in 26 of the tested models and achieves up to $1.485$ bits per weight on sparse models.
The position is for an Applied Scientist to improve Amazon's complex logistics systems, focusing on data-driven decision making and solving large-scale challenges. The ideal candidate will have a deep knowledge of Operations Research and/or Machine/Deep Learning methods, experience in applying these methods to large-scale business problems, and excellent communication skills.
What does a coding-agent harness actually add, and at what cost? It turns out your Claude models may not need Claude Code… We evaluate 21 model–harness pairs spanning seven models and three harnesses—Claude Code, Codex CLI, and Pi—on SWE-bench Lite and Terminal-Bench 2.0.

A long-standing Telnet vulnerability, CVE-2026-32746, was discovered in 1994 and affects GNU inetutils implementations. The vulnerability allows an attacker to corrupt memory locations by sending specially crafted SLC (Set Linemode Characters) data to the server.
Detail of aeromagnetic image of the Yilgarn region in Western Australia using the CET-L20 scheme For cartography, technical illustration and design. The archive supports several formats and is organised by author.
The US Strategic Petroleum Reserve stores hundreds of millions of barrels of crude oil in underground salt domes, rather than large tanks, to meet its requirements. This solution is relatively inexpensive and protects the oil from aerial attack, but requires ongoing maintenance and monitoring due to potential tradeoffs.
