A simple strategy of having LLMs write fuzz tests and build up a port in topological order seems effective at automating porting from C to Rust. Agents are starting to produce more and more code A week or 2 back, I was reflecting on some code Claude had generated for me and I had a sort of moment of clarity. "Clarity" might be overstating it; more like the type of thought you have in the shower or after a few beers. Anyway. The thought was: LLMs produce more and more code, and they'll eventua

US Supreme Court Upholds Tennessee’s Ban on Gender-Affirming Care for Minors

The US Supreme Court’s conservative majority on Wednesday upheld the state of Tennessee’s ban on gender-affirming care for minors. In a 6–3 decision in United States v. Skrmetti, the justices found that Tennessee’s law is not unconstitutional. The central issue of the case was whether Tennessee’s ban violates the equal protection clause of the 14th Amendment, which states that the government cannot discriminate against individuals based on their race, gender, or other characteristics.
