The conflict in the Gulf has now claimed several new victims: data centers. This marks a sea change in warfare and will force tech companies to reevaluate their posture around national defense. Defending them effectively means a new policy by the U.S. government—one that creates deterrence not just to protect life and health, but also data.
The 3rd section of the 14th amendment[1] states that no person having engaged in insurrection[2] shall hold any office, civil or military, in the United States. So technically Trump isn’t a legitimate head of state either.
10x when working on a code base I'm very familiar with.
Basically, it amounts to being able to give detailed instructions to a junior dev (who can type incredibly fast) and having them carry out your instructions.
If you don't know the code base, and thus can't provide detailed instructions, this junior dev can (using their incredible typing speed) quickly run off the rails. In this case, as you don't know the code base, you wouldn't know it's off the rails. So you're S.O.L.
A simple question about a spinning needle has haunted mathematicians for more than a century. It led to the Kakeya conjecture, a cornerstone of modern analysis connecting geometry, fractals, and the behavior of waves. Now, mathematicians Hong Wang and Joshua Zahl have cracked the 3D case — a once-in-a-generation breakthrough that could reshape how we understand the Fourier transform.
