Making a StringBuffer in C, and questioning my sanity

news.ycombinator.com Brian Douglas 2025-07-17 17:48:34

I've been writing a lot of C. Whilst doing so I have been questioning my sanity. Am I an awful programmer? You know what, I think I might be. Kudos to all those devs that created monumental feats with C. Because it is not an easy tool to use. That said, I do enjoy writing C, just as long as I don't have a deadline or any business critical software to deliver. But when I say enjoy, I mean enjoyment in the sense of using a sycthe to cut a lawn, whilst my lawnmower watches on. It's lovely using th

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-07-21 02:59:49

Few algorithmic problems are as central to modern computing as matrix multiplication. It is fundamental to AI, forming the basis of fully connected layers used throughout neural networks. In transformer architectures, most of the computation is spent performing matrix multiplication. And since compute largely determines capability, faster matrix multiplication algorithms directly translate into more powerful models [1 ]. NVIDIA probably deserves much of the credit for making matrix multiplicatio

There are a few things I won't put in an air fryer. Soup? Definitely not. Casserole? Maybe. Cauliflower? Well, yes. In fact, it's become my preferred cooking method, and I'm always happy with the results of cooking up this healthy and delicious snack. I like cauliflower each and every way, but as with anything, I especially love this veggie doused in buffalo sauce. Now, I'm not here to convince you that buffalo cauliflower tastes identical to the buffalo chicken wings that I also whip up in my

Spegel - A Terminal Browser That Uses LLMs to Rewrite Webpages June 23, 2025 TL;DR Spegel is a proof-of-concept terminal web browser that feeds HTML through an LLM and renders the result as markdown directly in your terminal. Your browser does not support the video tag. Two weekends ago, after my family had gone to sleep, I found myself unsupervised with a laptop and an itch to build something interesting. A couple of hours later, I had a minimal web browser running in my terminal (no JavaSc

Transmitting data via ultrasound without any special equipment

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-08-24 15:02:17

There are secret messages flying all around you all the time, being transmitted via, most of the time, electromagnetic waves going from antenna to antenna. ELOs “Secret Messages” is a song about posting conspiracy theories via WiFi. But what if you need to get a few bytes from device A to device B (one of the hard problems in computer science!) and you don’t feel like making sure they’re both connected to the same network? Well, fortunately, another channel is available to us - sound, or for a

Before the Cult TV Show, the Buffy Movie Proved How Fun Slaying Monsters Can Be

gizmodo.com Cheryl Eddy 2025-06-04 15:30:49

Buffy the Vampire Slayer may soon make a TV comeback with Sarah Michelle Gellar—and the cult-classic series will always be the most beloved version of Buffy’s story. But in 1992, five years prior to fans becoming obsessed with Sunnydale and the Scoobies, a different version of Buffy’s story hit the big screen. The same broad strokes are there; the script is by (now-disgraced) Buffy series creator Joss Whedon, and it follows a chipper blonde named Buffy saving the world from monsters. But it’s go
