Laser-based artificial neuron mimics nerve cell functions at lightning speed

Researchers have developed a laser-based artificial neuron that fully emulates the functions, dynamics and information processing of a biological graded neuron. With a signal processing speed of 10 GBaud — a billion times faster than its biological counterparts — the new laser graded neuron could lead to breakthroughs in fields like artificial intelligence and other […]

SwiftUI Charts Plotting Functions

In iOS 18 Apple added function plotting to the SwiftUI Charts framework. Function Plotting Both the LinePlot and AreaPlot charts now accept a function to graph. The function accepts a Double and returns a Double. For example: Chart { LinePlot(x: “x”, y: “y”) { x in x * x } } .chartYAxisLabel(“y = x * […]

Come To The Light-dark() Side | CSS-Tricks

You’d be forgiven for thinking coding up both a dark and a light mode at once is a lot of work. You have to remember @media queries based on prefers-color-scheme as well as extra complications that arise when letting visitors choose whether they want light or dark mode separately from the OS setting. And let’s […]

How to implement FILTER semantics with Oracle JSON aggregate functions

A cool standard SQL:2003 feature is the aggregate FILTER clause, which is supported natively by at least these RDBMS: ClickHouse CockroachDB DuckDB Firebird H2 HSQLDB PostgreSQL SQLite Trino YugabyteDB The following aggregate function computes the number of rows per group which satifsy the FILTER clause: SELECT COUNT(*) FILTER (WHERE BOOK.TITLE LIKE ‘A%’), COUNT(*) FILTER (WHERE […]

Encapsulate your @Composable functions

TL;DR Encapsulate your composable functions and associated types with a surrounding object and use the operator fun invoke of that object as your composable function. This is a convenient convention for complex components. Details Complex Composable functions often require numerous associated types for their implementation: state holders, UI models, default values, etc. While it does […]

Synchronous functions can support cancellation too

Cancellation is a Swift concurrency feature, but this doesn’t mean it’s only available in async functions. Synchronous functions can also support cancellation, and by doing so they’ll become better concurrency citizens when called from async code. Supporting cancellation makes sense for functions that can block for significant amounts of time (say, more than a few […]
