Interesting a new name system being standardized. It's supposed to protect privacy and be censorship resistant. We'll see how it gets adopted.

Ironically, I think this is one of the best analysis I've seen regarding OpenAI and the recent turmoil around of one of its founders.

Good reminder that false sharing is a real thing. It's easier to encounter than you think when you start to dabble into multi-threading.

Definitely this, the context matters a lot. Sometimes I've seen people too quick to blame the skillset of underperforming colleagues. But the same person in a different context could probably do much better.

This is really bad... Now, this is investigation is UK centric though. I wonder how other countries would fare.

This is a cool project, not too expensive as well.

I guess this will end up being a popular plugin for Krita.

I guess it's a strategy to move more people over to Chrome. Shameful.

Floating-point numbers are really a complicated species. This is an interesting deep dive in some of their representation.

The newer text to speech models are really good now.

Ever wondered how to programmatically introspect query plans? This is a long article but good starting point on how it's represented under the hood.

Cool results, let's see what the future brings. This could be exciting.

Since quite a lot of Python code will be impacted by this, better get ready.

Won't be easy to get rid of the GIL in the Python ecosystem. There are notable differences of behavior between implementations and even versions of the same implementation... Lots of user code will unwillingly depend on a specific set of guarantees.

Good food for thought to design CLI interfaces.

Nice approach to also hunt for memory safety issues while software is in production.

A bit of history behind what's probably the most widespread local network technology.

Excellent piece about everything which is wrong in the current industrialization moment of generative AI.

Don't you love DRMs in cars? Especially when the business people at the helm are pathological liars?

Good piece, this is indeed essential in managing others. If they can't trust you then fear will ensue.
