YouTube Low Complexity, High Fidelity: The Rendering of INSIDE In this 2016 GDC Europe session, PlayDead's Mikkel Gjoel and Mikkel Svendsen detail the techniques used to achieve high visual fidelity in the context of the uncompromisingly simplistic aesthetic of INSIDE, Playdead's follow-up to the critically acclaimed… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RdN06E6Xn9E

Blue Noise - unexpected intersection of signal processing and computer graphics. Also, ingenious dithering algorithm, if you need one.

Emergent Complexity via Multi-agent competition
TLDR: humanoids and ant-like robots learning complex behaviors from scratch, like kicking and catching soccer balls, playing sumo, tricking each other, etc. With video.

Medium How that Intel CPU security hole works There’s quite a lot of the buzz in the media already, I’ll try to explain the technical details in simple terms instead. https://medium.com/@oleksandr_now/how-that-intel-cpu-security-hole-works-2fb752471fbe

Looks like Intel just provided unikernels (and AMD) with 15% performance advantage, for free
(TLDR: likely, speculative execution skips permission checks, and allows to read arbitrary memory from usermode)

non-sticky coating is great

YouTube LiquiGlide: Nonstick coatings leave zero waste behind The days of wasting condiments — and other products — that stick stubbornly to the sides of their bottles may be gone, thanks to MIT spinout LiquiGlide, which has licensed its nonstick coating to a major consumer-goods company.
