Designated as CVE‑2025‑53771 and CVE‑2025‑53770, the two vulnerabilities apply only to on‑premis

Major Quantum Computing Advance Made Obsolete by Teenager

news.ycombinator.com Kevin Hartnett 2025-07-30 22:42:25

A teenager from Texas has taken quantum computing down a notch. In a paper posted online earlier this month, 18-year-old Ewin Tang proved that ordinary computers can solve an important computing problem with performance potentially comparable to that of a quantum computer. In its most practical form, the “recommendation problem” relates to how services like Amazon and Netflix determine which products you might like to try.

I want to present you with two narratives about AI. Both of them are about using this technology to automate computer programming, but they point toward two very different conclusions. The first narrative notes that Large Language Models (LLMs) are exceptionally well-suited for coding because source code, at its core, is just very well-structured text, which is exactly what these models excel at generating.

The first season of Ahsoka was about the search for Ezra Bridger. So it’s fitting that the very first thing we see from the second season of the show is that character. At the Lucasfilm Pavilion at San Diego Comic-Con, amid a slew of fanfare for the history of Star Wars animation, an image sits alone, with a big smile on its face. It’s Eman Esfandi as Ezra Bridger, with a new costume that confirms his look in season two. When last we saw Ezra on Ahsoka, he had miraculously returned from Peridea
