For example there was the C10k problem paper. At the time, the kinds of things done to reduce work done per request was pre-forking the web server. This means a request could be handled without an expensive process creation. Because yes, creating a new process for every request used to be somethi

Deeply divided Supreme Court lets NIH grant terminations continue

The New Marvel Legends Maximum Series Deadpool Lives Up to Those Descriptors

Deadpool is, and will continue to be, everywhere. And yet, his new Marvel Legends figure is so good, it still somehow stands head, shoulders, and samurai swords above the rest.

In the long run, LLMs make us dumber

The comfort we get when offloading our cognitive load to LLMs is bad for us. Cognitive load should exist, and if we reduce it too much – if we stop thinking – we can actually unlearn how to think. Kids who always choose the easy route and copy their homework from other students eventually find themselves completely clueless about what’s going on in school. Someone who always lets their spouse handle all the bills and banking may one day be unable to manage even a simple payment on their own. A

Trump Is Betting Big on Intel. Will the Chips Fall His Way?

The US government is aiming to take an equity stake in Intel in exchange for grants the company was already committed to receive under the Biden era CHIPS Act, according to comments US commerce secretary Howard Lutnick made in an interview with CNBC. The move is part of the government’s efforts to boost US chip manufacturing. “We should get an equity stake for our money, so we’ll deliver the money which was already committed under the Biden administration,” Lutnick said. “We’ll get equity in re
