Scaling HNSWs
I’m taking a few weeks of pause on my HNSWs developments (now working on some other data structure, news soon). At this point, the new type I added to Redis is stable and complete enough, it’s the perfect moment to reason about what I learned about HNSWs, and turn it into a blog post. That […]
Has Google solved two of AI’s oldest problems?
A mysterious new model currently in testing on Google’s AI Studio is nearly perfect on automated handwriting recognition but it is also showing signs of spontaneous, abstract, symbolic reasoning. Google has a webapp called AI Studio where people can experiment with prompts and models. In the last week, users have found that every once in […]
The Perplexing Appeal of the Telepathy Tapes
Ky Dickens, the director of The Telepathy Tapes, repeatedly describes her findings — namely, that non-verbal autistic people can read minds — as “paradigm-shifting.” This is not a cherry-picked hyperbole: at the official Telepathy Tapes website, t-shirts bearing the phrase “paradigm shifted” are on sale for $40 USD (plus shipping & handling).

Advent of Code on the Z-Machine
So far, we have only seen procedural code, but Inform 6 is also somewhat object-oriented7 Sometimes the Z-machine is described as one of the first widely-installed object-oriented systems, but there is very little support for object-orientation in the Z-machine itself. Also zil does not support what we would today recognise as object-oriented code. It has […]
Welcome, the entire land – ”Hello, world!” in hieroglyphics
Earlier this year I was attending the dConstruct web conference in Brighton, UK. These sorts of conferences bring together plenty of like-minded people and friends I only get to see a few times a year. After the conference a few of us stuck around a few days to relax, recuperate and chat. Brighton is also […]
