A study conducted by the Federación de Gremios de Editores de España earlier this year, however, paints a starkly different picture of readership in Spain. According to the study, the percentage of the overall Spanish...
If you’ve ever tried using type erasure for something more complicated than std::any or std::function, you’ve either written 100+ lines of easy-to-mess-up code or reached for a boilerplate-heavy library like Boost...
Scientists at the Indian Institute of Technology, Madras (IIT-M) have created what they describe as the world's most detailed 3D cellular atlas of the human brainstem, linking whole-brain MRI views to individual neurons...
Who can punch themselves in the face with reality the most? This is who will win in the age of AI. I think there are two ways to use AI. You can just go off the deep end and start building a crazy amount of things...
Done is a claim about reality, not about effort. One of the most common traps that I see software developers falling into is considering something as done when it is clearly not done. If it only works on your machine,...

Previously: Kan Extensions in Double Categories. In programming, actegories play a central role in optics: lenses, prisms, traversals, etc. To understand actegories, let’s start with the definition of a monoidal...
People are quietly withdrawing from active participation in social media. While they may not be deleting accounts en masse, many are: posting less; limiting who sees their content; deleting stress-inducing apps; feeling...
Why is this an “app”? This summer, the kids’ performing arts school are singing and dancing in a show at Disneyland. We’re all very excited, but my excitement, at least, was muted a little when I was told to install the...
The mission of Thinking Machines is to build AI that extends human will and judgment. Artificial intelligence can do more every day, but deciding what it should do is up to us: individuals, organizations, humanity as a...
Digital identities and what they mean for the web have become a hot topic of discussion in the last few years. They have also brought many controversies: age verification laws and what they mean for online anonymity,...
In the previous article we took apart the reflect package and found that its magic is mostly the compiler leaving very good notes â type descriptors frozen into read-only data at build time, and a package that knows...
