How Do Pimple Patches Work? Here’s Everything You Need to Know

wired.com Boutayna Chokrane 2025-09-09 21:24:36

How do pimple patches work? Back in the day, getting a zit meant caking on disguising layers of foundation, concealer, powder …or maybe just a strategically angled hairstyle. But now, the game has changed: Why hide a pimple when you can dress it up? No frantic blending or pore-clogging products are required. Today, we’re embracing a radically different (and refreshingly low-key) approach to clogged pores: slapping a bright yellow star-shaped sticker on it and calling it a day. Welcome to the er

So you want to serialize some DER? (Editor’s Note: My day job is at Anthropic.) This story starts where all good stories start, with ASN.1. ASN.1 is… I guess you’d call it a meta-serialization format? It’s a syntax for describing data abstractly (a notation, you might say), and then there’s a bunch of different actual encodings that you can use to turn data into bytes. There’s only one encoding I choose to acknowledge, which is DER (the Distinguished Encoding Representation, it’s got a monocle

The most famous quote from Knuth’s paper “Structured Programming with go to Statements” is this: There is no doubt that the grail of efficiency leads to abuse. Programmers waste enormous amounts of time thinking about, or worrying about, the speed of noncritical parts of their programs, and these attempts at efficiency actually have a strong negative impact when debugging and maintenance are considered.

New proof dramatically compresses space needed for computation

Once upon a time computers filled entire rooms, reading numbers from spinning tapes and churning them through wires to do chains of basic arithmetic.
