Redis Geo
Note (version) : I wrote this originally as a Redis module in early 2014, then Redis included a modified version directly into official Redis releases in 2016. Note (implementation) : The implementation included with Redis 3.2+ changed some parameter orderings from my original (intentional, well-thought-out) design…

Team from ETH Zurich make high quality quantum swap gate using a geometric phase
Researchers at ETH Zurich have realised particularly stable quantum logical operations with qubits made of neutral atoms. Since these operations, called quantum gates, are based on geometric phases they are extremely robust against experimental noise and can be used in quantum computers in the future.

Time-Based CSS Animations
In my earlier post Time Uniform For CSS Animation, I took a note about a way to do CSS animations with time ticks instead of keyframes. It was limited applicable because CSS lacked the ability of doing complex Math calculations. After years of wait, CSS now has enough Math functions supported, particularly mod()…

Retrospectively Reverse-Engineering Apple's Neural Engine
I stopped working on the reverse-engineered Apple Neural Engine (ANE) driver three years ago, upon a sad mini realization that the ANE block is just not that useful, and I could be doing more useful things, and moved onto upstreaming other, more useful, blocks. The ANE's architecture was too opinionated to build a…
