This Arduino code controls a robotic arm with LED display, using sensors and servos to perform movements and detect objects. It displays a heartbeat animation on the LED matrix.
Livenerf is a benchmark designed to detect whether a frontier model gets worse after launch, using Claude Opus 5.5 as the test subject. It measures drift statistically over thousands of samples and provides detailed statistics on accuracy changes and output token counts.
Factorio is a game that involves building and managing a factory, with the goal of producing increasingly complex items. The game's focus on automation sets it apart from other survival games. Players can use modules to improve production, and new mechanics were introduced in the Space Age extension, including quality tiers for items and recipes.
Most European data centers keep their environmental impact secret, despite EU regulations requiring them to report energy and water usage. Only a small fraction of larger Dutch data centers publish this information, with many lacking crucial details on consumption.
Platonic and Archimedean Solids are regular polyhedra with unique properties. They consist of different regular polygons, with Platonic having identical faces and Archimedean having multiple distinct faces.
Dots are AI-powered agents that assist users with tasks, learn from feedback and adapt to their needs. They can connect to various apps, work independently or in teams, and provide 24/7 support for ambitious projects.
A Polish writer reflects on the country's vulnerabilities due to its dependence on imported energy and military supplies, as well as a declining population. The writer prepares for potential crises by stockpiling water, cash, and food that doesn't require cooking, while also having a plan for alternative heating sources.
Vermont's Green Mountain Power has implemented a home battery system, providing over 5,500 homes with energy security during power outages. The virtual power plant is the largest source of power in the state and aims to eliminate all outages by 2030.
NASA is secretly working on returning a 59-year-old Lockheed SR-71A Blackbird to flight, with retired engineer Mike Relja being asked for his expertise. The project faces significant challenges, including lack of spare parts and trained crews, but some possible solutions have been proposed.
US Postal Inspection Service seized an internet domain for operating a counterfeit website selling over 5 million fake USPS postage labels, resulting in $126 million losses. A Pakistani national, Faheem Akram, is charged with conspiracy and wire fraud related to the scheme.

The author created a custom checker function to ensure correct data loading between Rust and WebGPU, as the layout rules differ. The function uses facet's runtime reflection to inspect struct sizes and offsets at runtime.
The author analyzed 68 Floppy Emus that failed QA testing, identifying the causes of failure as clock crystal damage, soldering issues, and unprogrammed microcontrollers.
Backblaze's Q2 2026 Drive Stats report tracks annualized failure rates, model performance, and emerging technologies. The quarterly AFR is 1.73%, with no new drive models released this quarter but deployment concentrated in the 20TB+ range.
The author created a cellular LED matrix inspired by phyllotaxis, a pattern found in nature, and programmed it to react dynamically to sound using an STM32 board. The project evolved into an interactive installation at Recurse Center, featuring a website for attendees to upload sketches and games.
GPT-6.1 Sol is a new upgrade to GPT-6 Sol, offering improved performance and cost savings for everyday work tasks. It matches GPT-6 Astra's intelligence at one-fifth of its standard input and output token prices, delivering substantial improvements across complex professional tasks.
The author implemented a binary tree evaluator in C, using closures to represent user-defined functions and an arena allocator to manage memory. The evaluator uses a mark-and-sweep garbage collector to reduce memory usage.
The Jev AI model has gained popularity for its ability to classify tasks efficiently and accurately, making it a viable alternative to more expensive models like GPT-6. It achieves this through a unique training method called Reinforcement Learning for Calibrated Decisions (RLCD), which enables fast and cost-effective decision-making across various domains.
Global oil prices surged after the US and Israel attacked Iran, affecting products made from oil worldwide. The increased price benefits companies, governments, and shareholders in various regions, including Saudi Arabia's government finances and US-based oil companies' profits.
