Last year, we introduced Brain2Qwerty v1, research that uses AI to decode brain activity into text without any surgical implant. Now we're sharing the next step: Brain2Qwerty v2, the highest-performing end-to-end pipeline capable of real-time sentence decoding from non-invasive brain recordings, approaching levels of…
I'm Jesse. I make stuff. Software, hardware. Very occasionally, trouble.
Almost 100,000 lines of LLM-generated code in 2 months, and none of it is slop.
Equations governing dynamics and control of a multirotor UAV
Our most agentic Sonnet yet, with top-tier intelligence for coding and everyday professional work.
Software is now a commodity thanks to Claude Code. So the next step is obviously hardware. I spent the last 6 months on building a hardware startup, which was fucking hard.
What we lose when we no longer have to learn how our computers work.
I inspected Claude Code for privacy reasons and found hidden system prompt markers based on API base URL and timezone.
A look at the decline of the labor share of income that occurred post-COVID, comparing its dynamics to declines in earlier periods.
Our presence in the ATmosphere – Bluesky’s protocol – is no longer dependent on the platform’s standard infrastructure. Instead, our data now runs on Eurosky’s Personal Data Server (PDS).
There’s something about restarting my Mac on a …
Discover the top PostgreSQL 19 features, including built-in REPACK CONCURRENTLY, SQL property graph queries (SQL/PGQ), and logical replication updates.
This article was written by Marco Manino and Alberto Carretero, dqlite team at Canonical. 1. Anatomy of a SQLite bug Recently SQLite published a new version with a fix to a long-standing bug in the way that the Write Ahead Log (WAL) is checkpointed that leads to the corruption of the database. The important aspect […]
Applying Alexis King's parse-don't-validate principle in TypeScript, where the type system fights back just enough to be annoying.
European governments are rolling out digital identity wallets, which are to be used by citizens to access services, and to verify their age online. There is a serious problem with this: these wallets rely on safety services of Google and Apple.
Hi, and welcome to the latest ZLUDA update! Since I skipped the last update, this special issue covers all the developments made in ZLUDA since the start of the year. We now have two new major workloads: PhysX ( PhysX pre-alpha ) and Blender ( Textures support ). Much of this overlaps with Much improved Windows…
The US Supreme Court decided that the US Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) may not be independent anymore – with major implications for EU-US Data Transfers.
Photon, Moondream's inference engine, achieves near-realtime VLM inference (~33ms on NVIDIA B200). This is a peek into how it delivers up to 35% higher decode throughput by optimizing how the GPU works.
According to a new analysis by Stanford Medicine scientists, changing clocks twice a year disrupts circadian rhythms, leading to higher rates of stroke and obesity.
Introduction to Lisp programming on a PDP-1, with a hands-on practical focus
This document describes how Fil-C supports longjmp , setjmp , setcontext , getcontext , makecontext , and swapcontext in a totally memory-safe way. In particular, no misuse of those APIs in Fil-C can lead to stack corruption or any other violation of Fil-C's capability model.
1.6万亿总参大模型，训练全程由国产芯片完成
Late interaction makes retrieval more precise but turns every document into many vectors. Asymmetric quantization keeps query vectors precise and stores…
Today, the Large Hadron Collider ( LHC ), the world’s most powerful particle accelerator, comes to the end of an extraordinary chapter in its scientific journey. Following its final physics run , the accelerator has been switched off to begin CERN’s Long Shutdown 3 (LS3), a major programme of maintenance…
Qwen3.6 27B is finally a smart model we can use for coding on MacBook or NVIDIA RTX - with llama.cpp and OpenCode.

Microsoft is losing Builders fast. They're switching to MacOS and Linux. The biggest pull keeping people on Windows, outside of shear inertia, is content creation and gaming. However, even these are falling to Linux.
A Game Boy emulator runs faster than a native interpreter by dynamically recompiling SM83 to WebAssembly, effectively making JIT possible on iOS.
In this essay, Carson Gross walks through a concrete bug fix in hyperscript to show where AI helped, where it fell short, and why keeping a knowledgeable human in the loop is what kept complexity in check.
Unites Rocket Lab's leading launch and satellite manufacturing capabilities with Iridium's global network, spectrum, and experience to unlock critical space applications. Adds material revenue scale and is significantly accretive to Rocket Lab's cash flow generation and profitability.
