MIT engineers develop a magnetic transistor for more energy-efficient electronics
Transistors, the building blocks of modern electronics, are typically made of silicon. Because it’s a semiconductor, this material can control the flow of electricity in a circuit. But silicon has fundamental physical limits that restrict how compact and energy-efficient a transistor can be.MIT researchers have now replaced silicon with a magnetic semiconductor, creating a magnetic transistor that could enable smaller, faster, and more energy-efficient circuits. The material’s magnetism strongly

Will Infleqtion (INFQ) Elevate Its Quantum Edge With Dr. Buck Leading Sqale’s Development?
Infleqtion, Inc. recently appointed Dr. Joseph Buck as senior vice president of quantum computing systems to lead development of Sqale, its scalable neutral-atom quantum computer, drawing on his 23-year track record across government, defense and commercial quantum technologies. His experience moving neutral-atom and photonics research into fielded products may be especially important as Infleqtion pushes toward deployable quantum computing platforms. Next, we'll examine how Dr. Buck's...

How to get more coding productivity with LLMs
As someone who is a lifelong programmer and entrepreneur, I'm here to say that 2-4-8x AI productivity boost is just the start. I'm currently benchmarking myself at 40-50x coding producivity with AI over 16 weeks, compared to pre-AI, and it's increasing over time, and I am trying to find ways to share these techniques with more programmers. Here we go HN...I measure in lines of code, which I know is an imperfect metric, but it's the quantative metric I have, and I'm quali
Show HN: RunNburn – Run a 295B Moe from a 98GB GGUF on a 64GB RAM Desktop
runNburn is an Apache-2.0 Rust inference engine for quantized GGUF models that are too big for your fast memory.The core idea: weights stay file-backed (mmap), host residency stays under an explicit byte budget (--ram-budget), and GPU caches are sized from detected free/total VRAM — never from device-name presets. There is no conversion step, no sidecar cache files, no silent requantization. The GGUF on disk is the single source of truth.The result that made me want to post this: Tencent&#x

Alien signals may be hiding where we rarely listen
Astronomers may have been listening for alien civilizations in only a small slice of the radio spectrum while overlooking a largely unexplored range of higher frequencies. Using archived data from the ALMA telescope in Chile, researchers conducted the observatory’s first SETI survey, searching for narrow signals that could indicate advanced technology. No possible alien transmissions were found, but the study revealed that even a handful of telescope observations may quietly include millions of
