Lemire's work always pops up in regards to high performance or data compression. The paper is interesting and I learned about a new field of math. I especially admire the FOSS implementation of the theory, which is often missing from many academic papers. Makes me think there's a lot more improvements to be had with the much larger and specialized instruction sets we're seeing nowadays.
