быстро скажу, и обратно к работе

стерео-чтение “Радуги тяготения” с Арташесом Эмином, переводчиком романа на армянский, прошло успешно, кмк, 28 марта, в особенный день. во всяком случае, зрители смеялись и не жаловались. еще раз подтвердился тот вроде бы очевидный факт, что тексты Пинчона лучше воспринимать на слух, читательский глаз с ними справляется не всегда. ритмически и музыкально армянский и русский варианты звучали конгруэнтно друг другу и, конечно, оригиналу

“Радуга”, между тем, вышла наконец и на датском (а наш немецкий брат по разуму Отто Зелл, к сожалению, уже умер)

гениальные русские читатели же по-прежнему продолжают свою утомительную клоунаду тупости. научитесь...

Фред Дибна был один из самых любимых британских «народных героев» телевидения. По профессии он был стипплджеком (steeplejack) — специалистом по ремонту и сносу высоких промышленных труб, церковных шпилей и башен. Не кочегары мы, не плотники. Но сожалений горьких нет как нет, а мы монтажники-высотники, да и с высоты вам шлем привет.
Эта профессия традиционно пользуется в Британии огромным уважением — даже на легендарном гобелене из Байё (XI век) вместе с рыцарями, королями и святыми есть изображение стипплджека
Фред Дибна говорил с сильным ланкаширским акцентом, всегда носил старую кепку, вечно был измазан машинным маслом — и при этом стал звездой BBC. В...

Quantum computing bombshells that are not April Fools

For those of you who haven’t seen, there were actually two “bombshell” QC announcements this week. One, from Caltech, including friend-of-the-blog John Preskill, showed how to do quantum fault-tolerance with lower overhead than was previously known, by using high-rate codes, which could work for example in neutral-atom architectures (or possibly other architectures that allow nonlocal operations, like trapped ions). The second bombshell, from Google, gave a lower-overhead implementation of Shor’s algorithm to break 256-bit elliptic curve cryptography.

Notably, out of an abudance of caution, the Google team chose to “publish” its result via a cryptographic zero-knowledge proof that their...

I have a bunch that I want to write about this month, but that'll all be in different posts. Just got back from Atmosphere Conf in Vancouver and settling into a false Brooklyn summer.

I read so much this month but have little to share here. Despite trying to keep a rich, diverse information diet, a lot of the articles blur into the same thing, and I've been reading too much on Instapaper. Saving articles for later is a powerful way to manage my time, but it produces a huge pile of content that I then feel obligated to work my...

Summary of changes for March 2026

Hey everyone!

This is the list of all the changes we've done to our projects during the month of March.

We spent a big chunk of the month finishing up the new Donsol. Devine documented the development as part of a...

Movie Review: “The AI Doc”

Yesterday Dana, the kids, and I went to the theater to watch The AI Doc: Or How I Became An Apocaloptimist, the well-reviewed new documentary about whether AGI will destroy the world. This was surely the weirdest family movie night we’ve ever done. Firstly, because I personally know probably half of the many people interviewed in the film, from Eliezer Yudkowsky to Ajeya Cotra to Liv Boeree to Daniel Kokotajlo to Ilya Sutskever to Jan Leike to Yoshua Bengio to Shane Legg to Sam Altman and Dario Amodei. But more importantly, because this is a documentary that repeatedly, explicitly, earnestly...

My theoretical computer science notes from Epsilon Camp

Last summer, I was privileged to teach a two-week course on theoretical computer science to exceptional 11- and 12-year-olds at Epsilon Camp, held at Washington University in St. Louis. The course was basically a shorter version of the 6.045 course that I used to teach to undergrads at MIT.

I was at Epsilon Camp to accompany my son Daniel, who attended a different course there, for the 7- and 8-year-olds. So they got me to teach while I was there.

Teaching at Epsilon was some of the hardest work I’ve done in years: I taught two classes, held office hours, and...
