The CRT terminal market essentially started with the IBM 2260 Display Station in 1965, built from curious technologies such as sonic delay lines.

A pair of wires created a buffer that held the pixels for 480 characters.16Sonic delay line module from the IBM 2260 display.

The IBM 2260 didn't have an 80×24 display (although it generated 80×24 internally), but its 40×12 and 80×12 displays made 80×24 the next step for IBM.

They explained that the IBM PC was a follow-on to the rather obscure IBM DataMaster office computer,30 and many of the IBM PC design choices followed the DataMaster microcomputer.

Instead, display sizes converged on what IBM produced, first with the punch card, then the IBM 2…

A Visual Introduction to Machine Learning : English Bahasa Indonesia Deutsch Español Français Italiano Português Türk ελληνικά русский لعربية 中文 简体 In machine learning, computers apply statistical learning techniques to automatically identify patterns in data.

Using a data set about homes, we will create a machine learning model to distinguish homes in New York from homes in San Francisco.

In machine learning terms, categorizing data points is a classification task.

So visualizing elevation and price per square foot in a scatterplot helps us distinguish lower-elevation homes.

Of course, you'll need additional information to distinguish homes with lower elevations and lower per-square-foot p…

On the latter, like many others, I purchase most of my books through Amazon.

It’s not uncommon for Amazon books to come damaged.

The first time I remember noticing a print-on-demand book was with Bertrand Russell’s The Problems of Philosophy.

The glossy cover with subpar printing gave it away, and surely, after checking the last page, I could read “Printed in France by Amazon”.

To add insult to injury, print-on-demand books seem to be significantly more expensive than stock equivalents.

A most elegant TCP hole punching algorithmTCP hole punching is a way to connect two computers behind NAT routers.

Part 3: sockets and networking It is helpful to review the requirements for TCP hole punching before we proceed.

But with TCP hole punching if you do any kind of cleanup you break the protocol.

I also want to add that the only really correct model for TCP hole punching is to use non-blocking sockets.

Async networking prevents your software from being able to precisely control timing and TCP hole punching is highly sensitive to timing.

With an insatiable need for tech I thought “why not start a website focusing on technology, and use my dislikes and likes to post on gadgets.

Your next car purchase comes with an unwelcome passenger: a federal mandate requiring surveillance technology that monitors your every blink, glance, and head nod.

The tech involves infrared cameras mounted on steering columns or A-pillars, tracking eye movement, pupil dilation, and drowsiness patterns.

The federal government promises this surveillance saves 9,000-10,000 lives annually.

The purpose of this post is to explore two questions:Is it possible that search distillation actually improves language model reasoning?

The hypothesis is that combinatorial problems benefit more from the sort of parallel adaptive reasoning tree search enables, as opposed to, say, GSM8K where sequential reasoning also leads to effective outcomes.

Briefly speaking, MCTS iteratively builds a search tree to intelligently explore the action space, guided by a value function.

This approach shares similarities with TS-LLM (Feng et al., 2023), which also combines AlphaZero-style tree search with a learned value function over sentence-level actions.

To isolate the value-add of the tree structure, I…

Federal Communications Commission Chairman Brendan Carr threatened broadcasters with cancellation of their licenses if they did not “correct course” on news coverage.

Trump has suggested that networks should lose their broadcast license due to unfair coverage.

Individual local stations — including those owned by the networks and independently owned affiliates — do hold FCC licenses and are legally responsible for complying with the agency’s rules.

Revoking licenses for content the administration doesn’t like would be an unprecedented expansion of the FCC’s powers and some att…

FAQFrequently Asked QuestionsQ: Is Ageless Linux a real operating system?

It defines an "operating system provider" as anyone who "develops, licenses, or controls the operating system software."

I know you, and that knowledge informs how I read your text.

And if I don’t know you, the words you choose combined with the interactions we have help me build that understanding.

In short: running your texts through the genericizer causes a disruption of the synchronization process between conversational partners.

It robs me of getting to know you.

Make mistakes, use idioms that don’t work in English, be too frank or too flowery in your wording, but give me the courtesy of the ability to interpret the message in the context of all aspects that actually went into its creation.

It won’t make coding easy, but it will make you stay curious, not furious, on your path to programming confidence.

The Rust project does not, at present, have a coherent view or position around the usage of AI tools; this document is one step towards hopefully forming one.

It is not a matter of “AI working well” or “AI not working well”, but a matter of making AI work well:It takes care and careful engineering to produce good results.

Others point out that such a ban would be difficult to enforce and that it is not going to make people stop using AI, or even stop them from using AI with Rust.

This includes people who otherwise expressed strong opposition to AI:In general, the Rust project cannot really do anything about the global state of AI.

On one end of the spectrum, some would like to see the Rust …

It's hard to apply a definition of groupware to Lotus Notes because Lotus Notes was one of the major products that originally defined the category, so its capabilities and limitations have become part of the background.

With Lotus Notes 4, spanning 1996 to 1999, IBM Lotus Development started on a wholesale port to Java.

The Java-ization of Lotus Notes could be said to have completed in 2008, when the Lotus Notes client was completely replaced with a full-Java implementation based on Eclipse .

In the mid '90s, Lotus Notes was the dominant groupware platform by a wide margin—Forbes put Lotus Notes market share at 64% in 1995.

Every day, Michael Geoffrey Asia spent eight consecutive hours at his laptop in Kenya staring at porn, annotating what was happening in every frame for an AI data labeling company.

After doing this for months, he, like other data labelers, developed insomnia, PTSD, and had trouble having sex.

My body is like, not functioning at all.”Asia eventually hit a breaking point and stopped working for AI companies.

Data labelers train, refine, and moderate the outputs of AI tools made by the largest companies in the world, yet they are wildly underpaid and haven’t benefitted from the runaway valuations of AI companies.

“It’s a very unfortunate supply chain, and my call today as data labelers is to b…

As college students, we constantly struggled with converting and editing PDF files for projects, reports, and assignments — often containing sensitive personal or academic data.

Existing tools were bloated, slow, filled with ads, and demanded sign-ups or paid plans for even the simplest tasks.

That frustration inspired us to build ZyncPDF — an open-source, privacy-focused file converter and PDF toolkit designed for everyone.

To sustain our hosting and development, we rely on community support, sponsorships, and donations — never ads, trackers, or data harvesting.

If you believe in privacy-first tools, you can support us by sharing ZyncPDF, reporting bugs, suggesting features, or donating th…

What do coders do after AI?

But it's not so simple as "bosses are firing coders now that AI can write code".

Coders, in their heads and heartsTo be somewhat reductive about it, there are two main cohorts of coders.

Both cohorts of coders are in for a hard time thanks to the new AI tools, but for completely different reasons.

I've spent my whole career working with communities of coders, building tools for the people who build with code.

Living (and pooping) in close proximity exposed the young mice to the gut microbiomes of the old mice and vice versa.

When the researchers compared young mice and old mice raised in a germ-free environment since birth (meaning neither group had gut bacteria), the young mice maintained their ability to form memories.

But when they transplanted young, germ-free mice with microbiomes from old mice, the young mice again performed like older animals in the memory and cognition tests.

Interestingly, the germ-free old mice did not experience a loss of memory and cognition as they aged, performing as well as 2-month-old animals.

Variable web fonts.

GeorgiaGiven all the advances in web typography, you might be wondering how my font strategy for The Session changed over the years.

If I was going to replace a system font with a web font that the user had to download, it really needed to be worth it.

As the font size gets bigger for headings, the font weight can reduce ever so slightly.

And I can adjust the overall font weight down in dark mode (there’s no grading feature in this font, alas).

With no code-signing configured, each platform behaves differently:macOSGatekeeper blocks the app immediately.

You'll see either "TUIStudio cannot be opened because it is from an unidentified developer" or "TUIStudio is damaged and can't be opened" on newer macOS after quarantine flags the binary.

To get past it: right-click the .app → Open → Open anyway — or go to System Settings → Privacy & Security → "Open Anyway".

WindowsSmartScreen shows "Windows protected your PC".

Less fatal than macOS, but still alarming to non-technical users.

I’ve never heard a politician cite the bank teller story before: but I have seen the bank teller story cited in a lot of blogs.

The story of how ATMs didn’t automate bank tellers is, indeed, something of a minor parable of the economics profession.

Here is a graph of bank teller employment since 2000:So what happened to bank tellers?

ATMs didn’t kill bank teller jobs…In the 1940s or ‘50s, if you owned a bank, you needed physical locations—these were your “branches”—and you needed people to staff those branches.

The natural expectation is that ATMs would make human bank tellers obsolete, or at least strongly reduce demand for bank teller jobs.

Long-time tech journalist Clive Thompson interviewed over 70 software developers at Google, Amazon, Microsoft and start-ups for a new article on AI-assisted programming. It's title?

Published in the prestigious New York Times Magazine, the article even cites long-time programming guru Kent Beck saying LLMs got him going again and he's now finishing more projects than ever, calling AI's unpredictability "addictive, in a slot-machine way." In fact, the article concludes "many Silicon Valley programmers are now barely programming. Instead, what they're doing is deeply, deeply weird..." Brennan-Burke chimed in: "You remember …

It's America's first large-scale offshore wind project, reports WBUR — enough clean energy to power 400,000 homes in Massachusetts from 62 offshore wind turbines generating 800 megawatts. But it took a while... The plant's first construction delay happened back in 2019, they point out — and then "Just three months ago, when the project was 95% complete, the U.S. Interior Department issued a stop-work order." But after successfully challenging that order in court, and "with a stretch of good weather offshore, the developers behind the $4.5 billion project managed to get over the finish line." The Associated Press notes it was "one of five major East Coast offshore wind projects the Trump adm…

Plug-in (or "balcony") solar panels can also be hung out a window or be set up in a backyard, reports NPR. They channel energy from the sun straight into a home's electrical outlet, generating enough electricity to power a refrigerator or microwave while "displacing electricity that otherwise would come in from the grid..." But what's holding up their adoption in America? For the panels to become more widely available in the U.S., state lawmakers are proposing bills that eliminate complicated utility connection agreements, which are required for larger rooftop solar installations and, most utilities say, should apply to plug-in solar too. Those agreements, along with permitting and other in…

The deal to take control of TikTok's U.S. business came with an unusual condition, according to people familiar with the matter.

Investment bankers advising on a typical deal receive fees of less than 1% of the transaction value, and the percentage generally gets smalle…

California saw its worst drought in 10,000 years between 2012 and 2015, remembers the Washington Post.

"The fact that certain organisms are able to adapt just because of genetics that are already present is a great source of hope," said Daniel Anstett, a plant biologist at Cornell University and lead author on a new study on the issue.

"A new study suggests the productivity boost from AI may be far smaller than executives claim," writes Slashdot reader BrianFagioli: According to research cited in Foxit's State of Document Intelligence report, while 89% of executives and 79% of end users say AI tools make them feel more productive, the actual time savings shrink dramatically once people account for reviewing and validating AI-generated output. The survey of 1,000 desk-based workers and 400 executives in the United States and United Kingdom found executives believe AI saves them about 4.6 hours per week, but they spend roughly 4 hours and 20 minutes verifying those results. End users reported a similar pattern, estimating 3…

But California company Wildtype sells lab-grown salmon — and is suing Texas over its ban on cell-cultivated meat, the Austin Chronicle reported this week.

And one chef in Austin, Texas says lab-grown salmon is "awesome" and "something new"--…

Top executives have recently signaled the plans to other senior leaders at Meta and told them to begin planning how to pare back, two of the people said. If Meta settles on the 20% figure, the layoffs will be the company's most significant since a restructuring in late 2022 …

StackOverflow answer with similar approaches.The common way to test exceptions is to use

pytest.raises as a context manager, and have

separate tests for the cases that succeed and those that fail. Instead, this

approach lets you unify them.I tweaked it to this, which I think reads nicely:from contextlib import nullcontext as produces import pytest

from pytest import raises @pytest.mark.parametrize( "example_input, result", [ (3, produces(2)), (2, produces(3)), (1, produces(6)), (0, raises(ZeroDivisionError)), ("Hello", raises(Typ…

Клод код (Claude Code) заботится обо мне и показывает команды на согласования, к сожалению, он делает это без уважения плохо.

Посмотрите на этот апрув: Выполняет трехстрочную шелл-команду с вложенными конструкциями: циклы, условия. Если там где-то будет какая-то ошибка, я её просто не замечу.

Я не специально выбирал, что скриншотить, они все такие: У меня остается два варианта: Как мартышка жать и жать на кнопку «Approve». В итоге вырабатывается привычка, которая не даст мне себя защититить в опасной ситуации. См. принцип «подтверждения не работают».

На новогодние праздники вышли два больших апдейта recipe-scaler

Первый апдейт — публичный профиль и коллекции

Сейчас можно шарить не только рецепты как одну штуку, но и всю коллекцию.

Или выборочно, или прибранные рецепты (с рецептом и фоткой), или вообще все-все-все

The first live sporting event was broadcast in the Vision Pro, and it's a big disappointment. The experience could be amazing, but Apple actively ruins it.

Делал большую фичу, попросил ревью у ИИ. Попросил найти важные моменты во всех областях: безопасность, логика, деплой, производительность и прочее, и прочее.

Опус 4.5 (лучшая на сейчас ЛЛМ в мире) написал: Критикал sql-инъекция. Как оказалось: пользователь сам себе после всех входов и разрешений на свой же запрос получит чуть больше своих же результатов. Опус не написал: Конфиг nginx забыли поправить и ничего не будет работать в целом.

AI might replace all of the jobs; that's only a problem if you think that humans will care, but if they care, they will create new jobs.

This morning I shared a link to this site, and the recipient said, “it looks

like a file.” I thought they meant the page was all black and white with no

color. No, they were talking about the URL, which ended with “.html”.This site started almost 24 years ago as

a static site: a pile of .html files created on my machine and uploaded to the

server. The URLs naturally had .html extensions. It was common in web sites of

the time.Over the years, the technology has changed. In 2008, it was still a static

site on the host, but produced with

Django running locally. In 2021, it became a

real Django site on the host.Through all these changes, the URLs remained the same—they still had

the old-fashion…

In my last blog post (A testing conundrum), I described

trying to test my Hasher class which hashes nested data. I couldn’t get

Hypothesis to generate usable data for my test. I wanted to assert that two

equal data items would hash equally, but Hypothesis was finding pairs like

[0] and [False]. These are equal but hash differently because the

hash takes the types into account.In the blog post I said,If I had a schema for the data I would be comparing, I could use it to

steer Hypothesis to generate realistic data. But I don’t have that

schema...I don’t want a fixed schema for the data Hasher would accept, but tests to

The most popular and most important posts on Stratechery in 2025.

In coverage.py, I have a class for computing the fingerprint of a data

structure. It’s used to avoid doing duplicate work when re-processing the same

data won’t add to the outcome. It’s designed to work for nested data, and to

canonicalize things like set ordering. The slightly simplified code looks like

this:class Hasher: """Hashes Python data for fingerprinting.""" def __init__(self) -> None: self.hash = hashlib.new("sha3_256") def update(self, v: Any) -> None: """Add `v` to the hash, recursively if needed.""" self.hash.update(str(type(v)).encode("utf-8")) match v: case None: pass case str(): self.hash.update(v.encode("utf-8")) case bytes(): self.hash.update(v) case int() | float(): self.…

Давайте сначала начнем с определений. Не каждая разработка с ллмкой — вайб-кодинг, но каждый вайб-кодинг — разработка с помощью ллмки.

Вайб-кодингом я буду называть программирование с помощью ллмки, в котором есть вот такие характеристики: Мало изначального планирования. Буквально короткое описание, вкинутое в ллмку и потом разберемся походу.

Попытка сразу попасть в нужную конечную точку. Желательно за одну итерацию.

Hey everyone, Like many of you, I used to reach the end of the month and wonder how I spent so much despite "having a budget". I’ve been building TrackMyRupee to solve this, and I just pushed a major dashboard update that focuses on context rather than just numbers. Why this matters: Tracking numbers is easy. Understanding the trend is where the magic happens. New Features: MoM Context: The hero cards now show exactly how much more (or less) you earned, spent, and invested compared to last month. Seeing a green ↑ 15% on Wealth Growth is a huge motivator. The "Financial Story": Instead of just charts, the dashboard now writes a short "Story" of your month. It tells you your daily burn rate a…

I spent ski seasons in the Alps and worked festival food trucks after uni. The one thing that was always painful was actually finding the work. Trawling Facebook groups, random websites, word of mouth. So I built PeakWave (peakwave.co), a free two-sided marketplace connecting seasonal workers with employers across ski, yacht, watersports, and festival industries. No coding background. Built the whole thing with Claude Code in the terminal. Next.js, TypeScript, Supabase, Tailwind, deployed on Vercel. Full auth, profiles, photo/video uploads, messaging, employer shortlisting, the lot. It's completely free for both sides. No catch. Would love any feedback on the site or the idea submitted by /…

The problem: content creators waste 80% of their time reformatting content, not creating it. One YouTube video should become 3 Reddit posts, an X thread, a LinkedIn authority post, a NotebookLM script, and a podcast outline — automatically. So I built exactly that. ContextFlow has three studios: → Content Studio — YouTube URL in, ready-to-post content out with live platform previews → Video Studio — any URL becomes a full video script (NotebookLM, podcast, explainer styles) → Script Studio — any blog becomes a video script with style selection All with redirect links that pre-fill the content so posting takes one click. Free tier at contextflowai.online. Would love brutal feedback from this…

This small West Yorkshire farmhouse was built some time before 1567, and initially consisted of a single farm (known as Withens Farm) before being expanded into three farms known as Top, Middle, and Bottom Withens in 1591. Centuries later, the farm was still in use in the 1840s when Yorkshire native Emily Brontë wrote her novel "Wuthering Heights", initially published under the pseudonym Ellis Bell.

In 1872, publisher George Smith wrote a letter to Brontë's friend Ellen Nussey asking for information about the inspiration for various locations in Brontë's novels, which led to Top Withens being used as the inspiration for the titular farmhouse's design in an 1873 illustrated edition, despite …

In 1870, Alexander Graham Bell, his parents, and sister-in-law moved from Scotland to a small farm in Brantford, Ontario, in hopes that the Canadian climate would help his poor health. Once recovered, Bell began teaching at the Boston School for the Deaf in the United States, returning to his parents' home for holidays and summers.

On July 26, 1874, while at his "dreaming place" on the farm looking out on the Grand River, Alexander Graham Bell came up with the idea for how to make a telephone.

A few years later in 1876, Bell made the world's first long-distance telephone call between Brantford and Paris, Ontario, marking the beginning of a new era of communication.

The Bell Homestead is now…

The Outagamie County Asylum Cemetery holds the bodies of at least 133 former patients who died at the asylum between 1891 and 1949. There were originally numbered stones (without names) to identify burials. Today, there are only stone markers, each indicting a row of burials. A stone plaque at the eastern edge of the cemetery gives the names of the patients buried in there. Today the cemetery is know as the Outagamie County Cemetery. The Outagamie County Asylum for the Chronic Insane opened in 1890 and closed in 2000. The maximum number of patients was about 250. The asylum was torn town in 2000. The cemetery and a stone bridge are all that remain.

Trumpeter swans are the largest swans in the world and the biggest and heaviest native waterfowl species in North America. But in the late 1800s, they were critically endangered due to hunting for meat and feathers. Trumpeters went locally extinct in in the province of Ontario in 1886. At one time, there were fewer than 100 Trumpeters in the entire continent.

In the 1980s, conservation efforts and a breeding program brought Trumpeter Swans back from the brink of extinction in North America. One of those captive-bred swans, Pig Pen, was the first Trumpeter Swan in Ontario in more than 100 years to migrate south, choosing to overwinter at LaSalle Park in Burlington in 1993.

Trumpeter swans ar…

For AnneMette Bontaites, running the New York City Marathon was supposed to be a one-time experience. A personal challenge, a bucket-list item, and then back to normal life

But somewhere between the starting line and the finish, plans changed.

The decision to run that first marathon was almost a whim. Bontaites, a Denmark native who now lives in Boston, had run two half marathons and joked to her best friend, “Well, two halves make a whole. I've done a marathon.’”

The friend, also a runner, begged to differ on that distance math and made her an offer: She’d fly to New York from the pair’s home city of Copenhagen and they’d run Bontaites’s first marathon together. By mile 18, the friends had…

The EU–US transatlantic relationship has entered a new phase of volatility after the US Supreme Court struck down President Trump’s global tariff deals.
