Poor man's bitemporal data system in SQLite and Clojure

news.ycombinator.com Aditya Athalye 2025-10-13 17:47:50

On trying to mash up SQLite with ideas stolen from Accountants, Clojure, Datomic, XTDB, Rama, and Local-first-ers, to satisfy Henderson's Tenth Law. Viz., to make a sufficiently complicated data system containing an ad-hoc, informally-specified, bug-ridden, slow implementation of half of a bitemporal database. Because? Because laying about on a hammock, contemplating hopelessly complected objects like Current Databases isn't just for the Rich man. Don't try this at work! The "Poor Man's Bitemp

We already live in social credit, we just don't call it that

Photo by Avery Evans on Unsplash Your credit score is social credit. Your LinkedIn endorsements are social credit. Your Uber passenger rating, Instagram engagement metrics, Amazon reviews, and Airbnb host status are all social credit systems that track you, score you, and reward you based on your behavior. Social credit, in its original economic definition, means distributing industry profits to consumers to increase purchasing power. But the term has evolved far beyond economics. Today, it de

Contrastive Representations for Temporal Reasoning

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-20 20:42:40

In classical AI, perception relies on learning spatial representations, while planning—temporal reasoning over action sequences—is typically achieved through search. We study whether such reasoning can instead emerge from representations that capture both spatial and temporal structure. We show that standard temporal contrastive learning, despite its popularity, often fails to capture temporal structure, due to reliance on spurious features. To address this, we introduce Contrastive Representati

How to Brush Your Pet's Teeth—Veterinarians Weigh In (2025)

wired.com Molly Higgins 2025-10-25 21:07:00

As the pet tech writer here at WIRED, I know just how far we've come as a pet-obsessed society. From automatic litter boxes with built-in cameras to interactive pet cameras on wheels that shoot out treats, if a human has dreamed it, our pets have probably been subjected to it. For a while, pet influencers were all about hydration. My FYP was filled with tricks and tips to increase chronically dehydrated cats' water consumption, including via pet water fountains, which have since flooded the mar

Ultra-Rapid Vision in Birds

news.ycombinator.com Jannika E. Boström 2025-12-12 16:32:46

Flying animals need to accurately detect, identify and track fast-moving objects and these behavioral requirements are likely to strongly select for abilities to resolve visual detail in time. However, evidence of highly elevated temporal acuity relative to non-flying animals has so far been confined to insects while it has been missing in birds. With behavioral experiments on three wild passerine species, blue tits, collared and pied flycatchers, we demonstrate temporal acuities of vision far e

CNET's key takeaways The $50 Oral-B Pro 1000 Electric Toothbrush works just as well as my previous $200 toothbrush. The Pro 1000 has three modes, a 2-minute brushing timer and a pressure sensor. Though it doesn't come with an app or more smart features, I enjoy its simplicity. The last time I visited a friend in San Francisco, a thief broke into their car and stole my luggage. Inside it, I had my precious $200 electric toothbrush, which I'd reviewed at a previous job and didn't have to pay f

Study: Apple’s newest AI model flags health conditions with up to 92% accuracy

9to5mac.com Marcus Mendes 2026-01-22 08:10:07

A new Apple-supported study argues that your behavior data (movement, sleep, exercise, etc.) can often be a stronger health signal than traditional biometric measurements like heart rate or blood oxygen. To prove it, the researchers developed a foundation model trained on behavioral data collected from wearables, and it performed surprisingly well. Here are the details. This preprint paper, Beyond Sensor Data: Foundation Models of Behavioral Data from Wearables Improve Health Predictions, comes

Managing time when time doesn't exist

news.ycombinator.com Robb Corrigan 2026-02-23 11:28:12

The Ultimate Productivity Paradox Imagine explaining to your boss why you’re late for a meeting because time doesn’t actually exist. Not in the philosophical “time is a social construct” sense that gets you invited to fewer dinner parties, but in the rigorous scientific sense where quantum gravity’s most fundamental equations contain absolutely no time variable whatsoever. You’d be attempting to justify tardiness using cutting-edge physics to someone whose greatest temporal insight is schedulin
