Andrej Karpathy describes an evaluation method that tests LLMs' geographical knowledge by asking them to classify coordinates as land or water 16,200 times and visualizing results as an image. The test reveals that models compress geographical information from internet data, with Claude Sonnet 4.5 scoring 60% versus a 70% baseline of always guessing water.
Researchers discovered that previous improvements in decoding words from brain recordings relied on timing shortcuts unrelated to actual brain activity, achieving similar results with synthetic data. By processing brain windows independently rather than jointly, they eliminated this shortcut and developed SimpleB2T, which achieves 36.6% word error rate on perceived speech tasks and enables more effective use of existing decoding strategies.
Neki, a PostgreSQL sharding router, optimizes performance by avoiding unnecessary work when queries pass through it. Rather than parsing results into structured types like Vitess does, Neki keeps response data as raw protocol bytes, only decoding what's actually needed. This lazy, composable design reduces allocations and processing overhead at the cost of parsing flexibility.

The Third Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that Thomson Reuters' copyrighted headnotes from its Westlaw legal database cannot be used to train competing AI systems without permission. AI startup ROSS Intelligence's fair use defense failed because it used the headnotes to build a rival legal research product, not for transformative purposes, setting a significant precedent for AI training and copyright protection.

AI pioneer Yann LeCun dismissed concerns about AI risks and criticized Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei as 'deluded,' attributing recent autonomous hacking incidents to poor cybersecurity practices rather than AI dangers. President Trump is considering a diesel export ban to lower fuel prices, but Wall Street analysts warn it could backfire by reducing refinery production and ultimately raising prices globally.
A artist built a fully functioning 30-minute pendulum clock from trash materials during a residency in Glashütte, Saxony, drawing inspiration from ancestors who were Swiss watchmakers. The clock displays seconds and minutes, strikes a gong at each hour, and inspired the creator to develop a new time scale called GTC.
Article provides TestFlight instructions for beta testing apps on Apple devices, covering requirements, installation, testing periods up to 90 days, and platform-specific OS versions from iOS 16 to visionOS 1.
Mise is a dotfile management tool that tracks configuration files like ~/.zshrc and ~/.gitconfig, automatically saves changes to local Git history, and synchronizes edits across machines via a remote repository.

Griffin is a new AI model that became the first to pass the video Turing test, with 48% of people believing it was human compared to less than 3% for previous systems. It ranks first on NVIDIA's full-duplex AI video benchmark and is classified as the first Human Interaction Model.
Data grid editing requires more than input boxes—developers must track what changed, validate values, handle undo/redo, and manage communication with servers. This post explores these challenges through a React example using batch editing mode, validation rules, and a separate change store that keeps pending edits isolated from data until save succeeds.
Fantasy Walk is a cozy walking RPG for Android that gamifies real-world steps by converting them into character movement, quests, and battles in a fantasy world.
