I first saw Jurassic Park one fateful day during middle school when my teacher rolled in a cart topped with a CRT television, popped in a VHS tape and pressed play. I was instantly hooked and I've since watched the film countless times, including on a 2013 trip to see it in 3D on the big screen at my AMC theater. Jurassic World: Rebirth hit cinemas on July 2, and I've been rewatching the entire series to get in the mood. With run times ranging from 1 hour and 32 minutes for Jurassic Park III to

Why tail-recursive functions are loops

One story every computing enthusiast should hear is the lesson of how loops and tail-recursion are equivalent. We like recursive functions because they’re amenable to induction, and we can derive them in a way that is in direct correspondence with the definition of the datatype over which they recur. We like loops because they’re fast and make intuitive sense as long as variables don’t change in too tricky a way. In general, recursive functions are slower than loops because they push stack fram

Engineering Breakthrough Opens Door to Cheap Hydrogen Power

As an alternative to fossil fuel combustion, hydrogen fuel cells hold tremendous promise. But they’re also notoriously difficult and expensive to manage, which largely explains why we don’t see them everywhere (or anywhere, for that matter, except for a few initiatives that are “exploring” their efficiency). But that may soon change. In a Nature Materials paper published August 8, researchers announced the development of a new type of solid-oxide fuel cell (SOFC) that addresses an underlying pr
