Uuugh, graphics. So many smart people expending great energy to look busy while doing nothing particularly profound. Graphics people, here is what you need to do. 1) Figure out a machine abstraction. 2) Figure out an abstraction for how the

Security is the big thing for me. Anything non-trivial requires me to trust you are not snooping on any compute I’m performing on your platform. Solving this for your users in a proper way is difficult. Recently 3mbed has developed open sou

You and your coauthor need to write up a detailed account of your “Metatron model”. This paper, if it were to count as research, should be how other phenomena can be simulated by choices of parameters for your model. Otherwise, you’ve just

The naïveté of workers in tech is astounding. Workers at Google have been complicit in the unravelling of the social fabric of the US since before Eric Schmidt. I only point to the destitution of the fourth estate by search advertising as t

Sadly is Linux is no longer what is used to be for my generation that cut their teeth having to patch kernels for basic hardware support. Linux is now effectively systemd/linux, and is attempting to become flatpak/systemd/lin

I’d recommend leaving a way to contact you as you’re both behind a NAT.

I actually believe he may be goading on US self-destruction in some attempt at retribution, perhaps, for being bullied as a child of foreign parents. He’s clearly educated and articulate, so not much else makes sense.

The amount of hate (used in the sense that it seems people online use) here is amusing. All he is saying is build things you want to see in this world. Implicit in his argument is the view that the majority in US tech are building what the

My primary concern with this offering is vendor of the enabling silicon. I think it’s important to consider who you do business with. The industrial uptake of RPi boards has poisoned their mandate and made them forget making a world where

Phil, They don’t want you to sell Teensy certainly because they believe they can make more money that way. Who cares? You have a far richer ecosystem yourself. Why spend energy over this? If your customers care, help them transition to your

This is the reverse situation. Here the provider is being abused by the customer. Because of the nature of global travel, there is a race to the bottom phenomenon of what kind of tourist behaviour is tolerated. An old housemate of mine from

Thank you Bryan for writing this. I’m not American, but the behaviour Bryan is calling out is in my opinion why American capitalism is in decline. When an entity parts with their money for your product or services it is a recognition of the

As a kid I loved waiting for whenever this show would air. It was like looking into the future. Now I can look into the future any time I want and all I see is garbage. Take care Stewart, thanks for sharing the magic that computing is.

Dear Mr. Reiner, Thank you for giving me Flipped. May you rest deeply now.

In case you assume novelty, a comment [1] from ArsTechnica reader Jensen404 explains otherwise by linking to [2] a post on Bluesky. [1] https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2025/12/jonathan-blow-has-spe... [2] htt

My initial reply to you was to only articulate some nebulous idea that there is desire for mathematical understanding that is being underserved by mathematics education. If standardized tests statistically “reliably” predict mathematical “a

The issue, as I see it, the erosion of the level of mathematical competence seen at university entrance. This inhibits the rate of progress one can make with a student over the period of an undergraduate education, and this reduces the expo

To be clear, they blamed Israel. Not that it helps make what they said any less idiotic.

As you’re on this platform, you’re a beneficiary of Section 230 protections. I think it’s reasonable for LLMs to have such protections, especially when you request questionable things of them.

Have you considered the possible perspective that you yourself deserve censure? You’re the one who asked something (which I infer you deem) questionable to Grok. Why have such thoughts to begin with?

Sorry, I’m not in academia, but since no one responded I thought I may suggest some things. I think it’s important to be deeply interested in work whatever lab you find is doing, otherwise they’ll feel like they’re babysitting you. My physi
