Relaxed Radix Balanced Trees (2024)

Relaxed Radix Balanced Trees I’m adding immutable vectors to my language, Ivan, and needed to pick a suitable data structure to implement them. Clojure uses Persistent Vectors (PVs) which support lookups, updates, and appends all in ‘effectively’ constant time. However, it doesn’t have efficient insert or merge operations. Relaxed Radix Balanced (RRB) Trees, introduced by Bagwell and Rompf in 2011, address this shortcoming. I had to read a few different papers to properly understand how they w

Broken legs and ankles heal better if you walk on them within weeks

news.ycombinator.com Lydia Denworth 2025-06-11 10:36:06

Twenty years ago my husband, Mark, broke his left ankle and was in a cast and on crutches for nearly two months. Last year he broke the other ankle. But this time, after surgery, his doctor surprised us by instructing Mark to walk on it two weeks later. It turns out the standard advice to stay off a broken leg bone for at least six weeks is based less on scientific evidence and more on cultural caution—physicians like to play it safe. But now studies show that complications are no more likely w

In the previous posts, we've explored the SQLite file format and built a simple SQL parser. It's time to put these pieces together and implement a query evaluator! In this post, we'll lay the groundwork for evaluating SQL queries and build a query evaluator that can handle basic SELECT statements.

Malaysia is betting on data centers to boost its economy

JOHOR BAHRU, Malaysia (AP) — Winson Lau has always had contingency plans. But he wasn’t prepared for data centers. Lau relies on water and electricity to operate his thriving export business in Malaysia’s Johor province, where he raises a kaleidoscope of tropical fish in rows of aquariums, including albino fish with red spots that can fetch up to $10,000 from collectors.

Marvel at the Ships, Suits, and Tech of Bong Joon Ho’s Mickey 17

So how, exactly, do you make a new human? No, sicko. We don’t mean that. We mean in the context of Bong Joon Ho’s latest, Mickey 17. In the film, Robert Pattinson plays Mickey, a human “expendable” who is brought back to life, over and over, after he dies. How does that work? A new book shows you, in more ways than one. Mickey is brought back to life via a human printer, which is exactly what it sounds like. A giant printer that, instead of pieces of paper, prints out humans. It’s one of severa

Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency claims to be fighting the scourge of government “waste” and fraud and, this week, DOGE claimed that it had already saved taxpayers tens of billions of dollars. However, in an ironic twist, it would appear that the claims being made by Musk and DOGE about their own activities appear to be, themselves, fraudulent.
