MIT researchers have developed a method using large language models to detect anomalies in complex systems without the need for training. The approach, called SigLLM, converts time-series data into text-based inputs for the language model to process. Two anomaly detection approaches, Prompter and Detector, were developed and showed promising results in initial tests.
A look at the social aspects of the Incompatible Timesharing (ITS) operating system, focusing on its lack of security and how that facilitated collaboration and a sense of community among users. The author argues that ITS was a forerunner to modern social media.

The PiDP-10 is a modern reproduction of the PDP-10, powered by a Raspberry Pi and featuring a front panel with tons of LEDs and switches. It's designed for those who want to experience the computing power of the 1960s, but with a modern twist.
Article by Danny Hillis for Physics Today reprinted with permission, describing Richard Feynman's involvement with the Connection Machine project at Thinking Machines Corporation in the late 1980s. Feynman contributed significantly to the project, including designing an algorithm for computing logarithms and working on the router design.
MIT CSAIL Professor Hal Abelson emphasizes the importance of free software for securing our agency in our digital worlds. His project, App Inventor, enables anyone to create apps without coding. He also discusses free software freedoms, the book 'Blown to Bits', and the importance of privacy and data provenance in today's digital age.
CEDS is a retrocomputing micro-factory, producing and shipping PiDP-10 replica kits. They also offer assembled PiDP-11 units, with the option of selecting assembled or unassembled kits in the order form. For placing an order, fill in the required information and submit the order form.
AI agent helping write and fix code, running tests and iterating till code passes tests or matches designs. Uses OpenAI API and aims to make coding easier.
Micro Agent is an AI agent that assists with coding, helping with code generation and iteration processes. It's a focused agent that aims to write code based on provided test cases or design screenshots. It can work in tandem with OpenAI and Anthropic APIs for better visual matching. The agent is designed with a specific focus - creating a clear test case and providing feedback on code that helps improve the generated code. Installation requires Node.js v14 or later, and it can be installed globally using npm. To get started, running the agent in interactive mode is recommended. Micro Agent can work in both unit test matching mode and visual matching mode for coding assistance. It uses a multi-agent approach and connects with Figma for high fidelity design-to-code conversions. Configuration options are available via CLI or UI.
