From LaurieWired. Gen Z doesn’t Understand Filesystems. It’s not their fault. Apple’s early abstraction of mobile data storage has caused…confusion to say the least. But what does the *real* iOS filesystem look like? As a researcher myself; it’s kind of insanely complicated. Join me as I dive into the hidden structures, sandbox illusions, and…the numerous…
From LaurieWired. Fading out audio is one of the most CPU-intensive tasks you can possibly do! When numbers get *really* small, the number of CPU operations can explode 100-fold. Both x86 and ARM have special CPU instructions just to handle it. But why? In this video, we’ll explore the IEEE 754 (floating point) standard, the…
From LaurieWired. Lo-fi girl’s got nothing on this. I built a tool that dynamically creates Infinite focus music that adapts to what’s on your screen. By combining a few locally-run Open-Source AI models (MagentaRT + InternVL3), it’s trivial to have your own contextual, endless radio station. Plus, I also go over some music model glitch…
From LaurieWired. Ever wonder why your favorite UNIX command is called "grep"? And what the heck does it have to do with the Founding Fathers? Join me as we discuss linguistics research, Bell Labs, the American Revolution, and how it all resulted in the linux tool we all depend upon! — Timestamps 00:00 The Phone…
From LaurieWired. Matrix Multiplication is critical to everything from AI training to computer graphics. With clever mathematical hacks, it’s possible to outperform traditional methods by a significant margin! In this video we go over some of the latest research in matrix algorithm development, specifically the improvements to Strassen found by Johannes Kepler University in May…
