What’s Driving the Turnover at Musk’s AI Startup?

Elon Musk’s xAI has lost a large number of top executives in recent months—so many that onlookers have begun to wonder what’s causing the high turnover rate. Now, new reporting from the Wall Street Journal suggests some of those executives may have left due to internal conflict over the management style at the company and disagreements over its financial projections. The list of executives who have recently departed Musk’s firm includes Mike Liberatore, the company’s former chief financial offi

Will I run Boston 2026?

Last year, we did a deep dive predicting the cutoff for the 2025 Boston Marathon. After the BAA announced the number of accepted time-qualified runners, our method was with 6 seconds of the actual cutoff. This year, we're revisiting our model with an additional data point. With the recent announcement of 33,267 applicants for the 2026 race, our updated model predicts a buffer of 5 minutes and 16 seconds. This time is based on an assumption: the BAA will allow 24,000 time-qualified runners. But

Amazon Finally Confirms Sophie Turner as Lara Croft in ‘Tomb Raider’ Series

In a not-so-surprising announcement, Amazon MGM Studios has named the star of its long-gestating Tomb Raider series: Sophie Turner. The lack of shock is because Turner was known to be “nearly set” to sign on as Lara Croft, according to reports from November of last year. Those same reports noted that Turner had been chosen over the other contender, Bohemian Rhapsody‘s Lucy Boynton, but that the deal wasn’t yet official. Now, Variety confirms that not only is Turner set for the part, but also th

The first iPhone with all-screen display could arrive next year: report

Trump Ends Union Protections for NASA Employees, Citing ‘National Security’

Just before Labor Day weekend, the White House issued an executive order that excludes NASA and other agencies from collective bargaining rights. NASA employees have previously expressed public dismay against the administration’s budget cuts to the agency and its policy against diversity programs, and the latest order is another major blow to the staff. President Donald Trump signed the new order on August 28, ending collective bargaining at a number of federal agencies with national security m

Compositional Datalog on SQL: Relational Algebra of the Environment

I spent some time before making Datalogs that translated into SQL. https://www.philipzucker.com/tiny-sqlite-datalog/ There are advantages. SQL engines are very well engineered and commonly available. SQLite and DuckDB are a pretty great one-two punch. A new twist on how to do this occurred to me that seems very clean compared to my previous methods. Basically, the relational algebra style of SQL actually meshes with manipulating the Datalog body environments (sets of named variables bindings)

Condor's Cuzco RISC-V Core at Hot Chips 2025

Condor Computing, a subsidiary of Andes Technology that creates licensable RISC-V cores, has a business model with parallels to Arm (the company) and SiFive. Andes formed Condor in 2023, so Condor is a relatively young player on the RISC-V scene. However, Andes does have RISC-V design experience prior to Condor’s formation with a few RISC-V cores under their belt from years past. Condor is presenting their Cuzco core at Hot Chips 2025. This core is a heavyweight within the RISC-V scene, with wi

No Daily Hub on your Pixel 10? Here’s how to sideload it

However, Daily Hub doesn’t seem to be available or enabled on many phones, starting with mine.

450× Faster Joins with Index Condition Pushdown

Introduction Readyset is designed to serve queries from cached views with sub-millisecond latency. This post focuses on the cold path—cases where a cache miss forces execution against the base tables. In these scenarios, Readyset must evaluate the query from scratch, including materializing intermediate results. The focus here is on straddled joins, where filtering predicates apply to both sides of the join in addition to the ON clause. Example: SELECT u.id, u.name, o.order_id, o.total FROM u

Dicing an Onion, the Mathematically Optimal Way

This is a project about onions and math. Why? Because tens of millions of people are curious about how to properly dice an onion, according to YouTube. In 2021, chef and food writer J. Kenji López-Alt broke out some math to get optimal uniform piece sizes. But there is more than one way to dice an onion… This is an onion. (Well, a simplified cross-section of one.) We’ve cut it in half lengthwise, using a sharp knife to reduce the chance of injury and onion-induced crying. From here, what’s the

Forget the Crypto Bros. Wall Street Is Driving the New Crypto Boom

The crypto market is on fire again, but this time, the fuel isn’t coming from “crypto bros” on social media. It’s coming from Wall Street, and it’s all based on a massive bet that the Federal Reserve is about to cut interest rates. Ether, the second-largest cryptocurrency, is leading the charge, surging nearly 10% in the past 24 hours to $4,723.26, bringing its all-time high of $4,878.26 within sight.
