DIY HDD: As any computer enthusiast will attest, being in the computer business for a few years usually means accumulating a pile of spare parts and hardware components. Old hard drives can be repurposed as additional storage in newer systems, or even transformed into creative modding projects with a few extra pieces and a bit of soldering, and then there's this. One such modder, who enjoys tinkering with electronics and PC hardware, turned a retired hard disk drive into a custom disc sander. R

April 16, 2025 The Halting Problem is a terrible example of NP-Harder It's a justifiable copout, but it's still a copout. Short one this time because I have a lot going on this week. In computation complexity, NP is the class of all decision problems (yes/no) where a potential proof (or "witness") for "yes" can be verified in polynomial time. For example, "does this set of numbers have a subset that sums to zero" is in NP. If the answer is "yes", you can prove it by presenting a set of numbe

Concerns about AI's energy use have a lot of people looking into ways to cut down on its power requirements. Many of these focus on hardware and software approaches that are pretty straightforward extensions of existing technologies. But a few technologies are much further out there.
