Titania Programming Language

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-09-30 08:29:49

Titania Programming Language Based on the Oberon-07 programming language designed by the late Niklaus Wirth. This is designed to be a language to teach compiler development with. Meaning behind the name: Titania is the wife of Oberon (Fairy King) in Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titania_(A_Midsummer_Night%27s_Dream) This is just a codename, and probably not final for this teaching language Grammar module = "module" ident ";" [import_list] decl_sequ

Stepanov's biggest blunder? The curious case of adjacent difference

news.ycombinator.com Roman Kashitsyn 2025-10-31 12:30:59

The curious case of adjacent difference If you have ever tried using the std::adjacent_difference algorithm in c++, I’m sure it left you puzzled. As the name suggests, this algorithm computes differences between adjacent elements of the input sequence, but it does one more thing: it copies the first element of the input sequence into the output sequence unmodified. The following example demonstrates how to apply the algorithm to delta-compress a postings list of document identifiers that contain

Launch HN: BlankBio (YC S25) - Making RNA Programmable

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-11-04 09:53:30

Hey HN, we're Phil, Ian and Jonny, and we're building BlankBio ( https://blank.bio ). We're training RNA foundation models to power a computational toolkit for therapeutics. The first application is in mRNA design where our vision is for any biologist to design an effective therapeutic sequence ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgI7WJ1SygI ). BlankBio started from our PhD work in this area, which is open-sourced. There’s a model [2] and a benchmark with APIs access [0]. mRNA has the potential

The Anti-Pattern Game

news.ycombinator.com Håkon Robbestad Gylterud 2025-11-21 17:14:40

The anti-pattern game Håkon Robbestad Gylterud Here is a small game I though of when taking a course on modal logic. It is a bit too tedious to be played by humans, but I had great fun finding a winning stategy for it – and there are still simple questions about this game I cannot answer. The rules The anti-pattern game is a two-player game. It is played using black and white pebbles (like Go). These pebbles are placed in sequence on a line. On their turn the player has a simple choice: to co

Scientists Find Secret Code in Human DNA

futurism.com Unknown 2025-12-27 04:15:10

Image by Getty / Futurism Genetics One person's junk is another's treasure. An international team of scientists have found that strings of "junk" DNA in the human genome that were previously written off as having no useful function are actually pretty important after all. The work, published as a study in the journal Science Advances, focuses on transposable elements, a class of DNA sequences that can "jump," via a biological copy-and-paste mechanism, to different locations in a genome. These

Corrected UTF-8 (2022)

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2026-02-02 08:29:26

UTF-8 is decent and all but it contains some design errors, partly because its original designers just messed up, and partly because of ISO and Unicode Consortium internal politics. We’re probably going to be using it forever so it would be good to correct these design errors before they get any more entrenched than they already have. Corrected UTF-8 is almost the same as UTF-8. We make only three changes: overlength encodings become impossible instead of just forbidden; the C1 controls and the

Sequence and first differences together list all positive numbers exactly once

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2026-02-14 21:59:12

EXAMPLE Sequence reads 1 3 7 12 18 26 35 45..., differences are 2 4 5, 6, 8, 9, 10 ... and the point is that every number not in the sequence itself appears among the differences. This property (together with the fact that both the sequence and the sequence of first differences are increasing) defines the sequence!
