Some observations from my War of the Lancehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WaroftheLance%28videogame%29 1989 Code Harness assisted modernisation WIP I gave Qwen-3....
Recently, while working on an optimized Quicksort implementation, I came across a rather interesting quirk. Modern compilers (especially Clang) optimize loops using fast, branch-free instructions - provided you use the right programming style.
Exploiting the Tesla Wall Connector from its charge port connector -
Transport Layer Security (TLS) is the protocol involved in getting the lock icon to appear in your browser next to the URL. Under the hood it uses a bunch of really cool numbers for encryption. Some numbers are considered private and need securing; some are considered public and are fine for sharing. You can mix your…
Anthropic is opening a research preview of the Model Hardware Standard (MHS), a shared specification for AI agents to safely operate physical devices, to a first group of scientific research labs and advanced manufacturers.
New from Google. They say it's "built to push the frontier of intelligence and solve modern challenges across science, research, and engineering". It drew me a really good SVG of …
Advances made through No Language Left Behind (NLLB) have demonstrated that high-quality machine translation (MT) scale to 200 languages. Later Large...
Why launch costs aren't the reason it costs a fortune to do things in space
I have a solid workflow for making my game with AI. However, every iteration, I have to go through extensive manual play-testing to verify functionality…

Calculus is the mathematics of approximations of continuous quantities ; number theory asks exact problems about discrete quantities. These seem, therefore, to be unrelated studies.
A from-scratch JEPA world model trained on Super Mario Bros. to study action-conditioned prediction and reward-free planning.
A language model on a 1975 MOS 6502 processor, using a tiny Mamba-based language model and custom 8-bit ternary inference engine, used to generate text on a BBC Micro from the 1980s.
The trick that makes GHC’s ApplicativeDo optimization faster is structurally identical to how biologists predict RNA folding.
It is with great sadness and shock that we must announce that Erich von Däniken passed away on January 10, 2026.
Why I’m leaving OpenAI to build telepathy.
Over the course of four weeks in January and February, I built a new programming language using Claude Code. I named it Cutlet after my cat. It’s completely legal to do that. You can find the source code on GitHub , along with build instructions and example programs .
My friend and I have a game where we talk about what we'd do if we were rich. Not rich like 'paid off the mortgage' rich. Rich like a man who owns a submarine he's never been inside. Rich like a man whose third wife has a skincare
How a Hertfordshire research lab quietly transformed an iconic British staple food, and the complexion of the countryside - without anyone actually noticing
"Cognitive debt," Claude Code, and the negative space around AI
In this blog I will look at some of the drivers for the growth of RISC-V, its value proposition and explain why supporting RISC-V is important to Canonical. […]
this is an incomplete list of some incompatibilities between c as it's written in the standard and c as it exists in the real world for people who use gcc/clang + glibc/musl.
Weight limits, speed limits, fuel consumption at scale, and why trucks do the things that annoy you on the motorway.

A statistical test of whether the Sumerian King List's antediluvian reigns line up with paleoclimate events better than chance.
Today, we are thrilled to announce the release of Angular v22. We continue to be proud of the work we do with each release. Our goal is to…
Dana-Farber Cancer Institute researchers, along with Mass General Brigham researchers from the Gene Lay Institute of Immunology and Inflammation, and the Broad Institute, have uncovered biological clues to why colorectal cancer can behave more aggressively in younger people. Published today in Nature Medicine, the…
What if you could let Claude and Codex work together as pair programmers, talking to each other directly? One of them as the main worker and the other as a reviewer.
