This new DeepMind research shows just how broken vector search is. Turns out some docs in your index are theoretically incapable of being retrieved by vector search, given a certain dimension count of the embedding. Plain old BM25 from 1994 outperforms it on recall. 1/4

Since my undergraduate days at CMU, I've been participating in puzzlehunts: involving complex, multi-step puzzles, lacking well-defined problem definitions, with creative and subtle hints and esoteric world knowledge, requiring language, spatial, and sometimes even physical

A new episode of Signals and Threads just dropped! This one is an interview with Chris Lattner, talking about Mojo, a new-ish language for GPU programming that's aiming to be an alternative to the CUDA stack. signalsandthreads.com/why-ml-needs-a…

I'm excited to be talking again at CppCon, presenting immer::persist, a library to serialize and transform immutable data structures, preserving the structural sharing. Cool work by Alex Shabaling and BRONZE enabling all new kinds of applications! sched.co/28JnX

Nice write-up of the GPU MODE event we helped run here at Jane Street. It was a lot of fun! gpumode.com/v2/news

Excited to say that we're looking to hire someone to focus on OxCaml education! We're doing enough to change the language that we have a pretty big internal education task ahead of us, and we want to hire someone to focus on it! Please share this with others!

Excited to announce that my paper, Typing Strictness, with Joe, Benjamin Pierce and Stephanie Weirich has been conditionally accepted to POPL 2026. Check out the preprint: sainati.pl/typing-strictn…

Really good, maths-free, introduction to the Fourier transform from this year's Siggraph, recommended watch: dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/37…

We are thrilled to release Velvet: a foundational multi-modal verifier for imperative programs in Lean. It unifies execution, testing, automated and interactive proofs; and is itself proven sound. 💻 github.com/verse-lab/loom 📄 verse-lab.github.io/papers/loom-pr… 🧵 Learn more below ↓

Ever since I made a video about Fourier Transforms, one of the most requested topics on the channel has been its close cousin, the Laplace Transform. I've been having a lot of fun animating a mini-series about this topic, and the main part is now out. youtu.be/j0wJBEZdwLs

CICM2025 is done! We had a lovely time in Brasilia, many thanks to the local team, the heroes of the day, or actually, the heroes of the whole week! The book is now out. Grab it while it's freely accessible link.springer.com/book/10.1007/9…
