Modern CI is too complex and misdirected (2021)

The state of CI platforms is much stronger than it was just a few years ago. Overall, this is a good thing: access to powerful CI platforms enables software developers and companies to ship more reliable software more frequently, which benefits its users/customers. Centralized CI platforms like GitHub Actions, GitLab Pipelines, and Bitbucket provide benefits of scale, as the Internet serves as a collective information repository for how to use them.

Who Invented Backpropagation?

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-11-13 06:50:21

Efficient backpropagation (BP) is central to the ongoing Neural Network (NN) ReNNaissance and "Deep Learning." Who invented it? BP's modern version (also called the reverse mode of automatic differentiation) was first published in 1970 by Finnish master student Seppo Linnainmaa [BP1] [R7]. In 2020, we celebrated BP's half-century anniversary! A precursor of BP was published by Henry J. Kelley in 1960 [BPA]—in 2020, we celebrated its 60-year anniversary. In the 2020s, it was still easy to find

ENOSUCHBLOG Programming, philosophy, pedaling. Aug 14, 2025 Tags: devblog, programming, rust, zizmor I recently solved an interesting problem inside zizmor with a type of state machine/automaton I hadn’t used before: a finite state transducer (FST). This is just a quick write-up of the problem and how I solved it. It doesn’t go particularly deep into the data structures themselves. For more information on FSTs themselves, I strongly recommend burntsushi’s article on transducers (which is wha

Lessons learned from buying an open source repo

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-11-13 04:35:07

Our tiny startup recently acquired the most popular open-source Unity MCP repo on GitHub, and things didn’t quite go as planned. Here are the lessons we learned for anyone considering buying an open source repo. Why we bought the repo First, we like open source and want Unity MCP to stay relevant and open source indefinitely. Second, there’s distribution: being the name behind the project. If you don’t want to set up MCP yourself, you can one-click install Coplay for a premium experience. Wh

We’ve now spotted clues suggesting that once users hit these triggers, they would have two days to opt out of participating in the Find Hub network. Additional triggers expected in the future include enabling Location access on the device, syncing with Fast Pair accessories, and more.

TL;DR Google’s Find Hub combines resources for tracking devices and sharing location with friends and family. Users need to positively consent first before their location is shared with anyone. The app is working to build an easy way for you to request your friends grant that access. Smartphones are picking up new features and abilities all the time, and while some of those are pushed out to us enabled by default, others are going to require us to make the intentional choice to opt in.

StubHub IPO is back on for September after ticketing company delayed plans on tariff concerns

But it looks like GitHub will be more fully folded into Microsoft's org chart starting next year—GitHub CEO Thomas Dohmke announced today that he would be leaving GitHub and Microsoft "to become a founder again."

Hubble Captures Glorious New Image of That Mysterious Object Cruising Into Our Solar System

As the mysterious interstellar object known as 3I/ATLAS plummets through our Solar System, NASA's good old Hubble Space Telescope has captured the best look yet at the interstellar visitor. On July 21, the interstellar interloper passed close enough to Earth — and to Hubble, which orbits us at about 320 miles above the planet — that the veteran space telescope was able to capture a surprisingly detailed image of it, NASA explains in a statement about the image.

Hadlee Simons / Android Authority One of the more notable emulation stories in the last couple of years has been the rise of apps that let you play PC games on your Android phone or tablet. No, we aren’t talking about streaming, either, but actually running these games via emulation/translation. Winlator and GameHub are the two leading apps in this regard.
