Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang criticized Anthropic head Dario Amodei over his recent claims that 50% of all entry-level white-collar jobs could be wiped out by artificial intelligence, causing unemployment to jump to 20% within the next five years. Huang disagreed with Amodei’s predictions when he was asked about it during VivaTech in Paris, where he said that he “pretty much disagree[s] with almost everything” the Anthropic CEO said, according to Fortune. “One, he believes that AI is so scary that o

Temuera Morrison Thinks ‘Star Wars’ Isn’t Done With Boba Fett Yet

Just when The Mandalorian brought him back and teased big things for him, Boba Fett got kind of a raw deal once his own show dropped. Disney’s not given it a second season or even so much as mentioned it, to the point just last year, star Temuera Morrison was unsure about his character’s future.

SIMD-friendly algorithms for substring searching (2016)

news.ycombinator.com Wojciech Muła 2026-03-18 14:31:18

Introduction Popular programming languages provide methods or functions which locate a substring in a given string. In C it is the function strstr , the C++ class std::string has the method find , Python's string has methods pos and index , and so on, so forth. All these APIs were designed for one-shot searches. During past decades several algorithms to solve this problem were designed, an excellent page by Christian Charras and Thierry Lecroq lists most of them (if not all). Basically these al

The Algebra of an Infinite Grid of Resistors

The Algebra of an Infinite Grid of Resistors In a previous note we discussed the well-known problem of determining the resistance between two nodes of an “infinite” square lattice of resistors. The most common approach is to superimpose two “monopole” solutions, one representing the field for one amp of current entering a given node and flowing “to infinity”, and the other representing the field for one amp of current being withdrawn from a given node flowing in from infinity. If the two nodes

Does RL scale? Over the past few years, we've seen that next-token prediction scales, denoising diffusion scales, contrastive learning scales, and so on, all the way to the point where we can train models with billions of parameters with a scalable objective that can eat up as much data as we can throw at it. Then, what about reinforcement learning (RL)? Does RL also scale like all the other objectives? Apparently, it does. In 2016, RL achieved superhuman-level performance in games like Go and C

Infineon security microcontroller flaw enabled extraction of TPM secret keys

A few months ago, security researcher Thomas Roche presented his fundamental research on secure elements used in the YubiKey 5. The security element is the Infineon SLE78, which contains a proprietary implementation of the Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA). Using side-channel attacks and a great deal of smart research, the author discovered a vulnerability in Infineon Technologies' cryptographic library and, as a result, was able to extract the ECDSA secret key from the secure

You’ll Guffaw When You Hear How Much Self-Driving Waymos Cost Compared to Human-Driven Ubers

The whole point of self-driving taxis is, in theory, to save costs on human labor — but Waymo, Google's glitchy robotaxi service, doesn't appear to be any cheaper at all, at least for now. In a report shared with TechCrunch, the ride-hailing data aggregator Obi found that riding with Waymo is pretty much always more expensive than taking a ride with a human-driven Uber or Lyft. For its analysis, Obi analyzed roughly 90,000 records from Uber, Lyft, and Waymo rides between March 25 and April 25

Waymo rides cost more than Uber or Lyft and people are paying anyway

A central premise of robotaxis is that high usage and lower labor costs will ultimately make it a cheap transportation option. That is still far from true, but now there’s some data that gives us an idea of by how much. Obi, an app that aggregates real-time pricing and pick-up times across multiple ride-hailing services, has just published what it’s calling the “first in-depth examination of Waymo’s pricing strategy.” The company found Waymo’s self-driving car rides to be consistently more expe
