Ah, yes, the classic tale of "let's overcomplicate something simple" strikes again! 🎢 Who knew that mimicking supervised learning would be so revolutionary it needed an 8-minute dissertation? 🤔 It's almost like using the same techniques might yield similar results! 🌟

#JavaScript finally discovers time! 🌟 In a shocking twist, we've over-complicated something as simple as a date by introducing "Temporal" because the Gregorian calendar was just too easy, right? 🙄 Spoiler: It won't make you love JavaScript more, but hey, at least you can now pretend to understand time travel in code! 🚀

Date is out, Temporal is in
Temporal is the Date system we always wanted in JavaScript. It's extremely close to being available so Mat Marquis thought it would be a good idea to explain exactly what is better about this new JavaScript date system.

#matrices as if they're the holy trinity of
#AI. Spoiler alert: it's mostly a glorified game of 'which word matters?' because we all need another reason to overcomplicate common sense. 🙄🔍

The Q, K, V Matrices
At the core of the attention mechanism in LLMs are three matrices: Query, Key, and Value. These matrices are how transformers actually pay attention to different parts of the input. In this write-up, we will go through the construction of these matrices from the ground up.

Improving PixelMelt's Kindle Web Deobfuscator
A few days ago, someone called PixelMelt published a way for Amazon's customers to download their purchased books without DRM. Well… sort of. In their post "How I Reversed Amazon's Kindle Web Obfuscation Because Their App Sucked" they describe the process of spoofing a web browser, downloading a bunch of JSON files, reconstructing the obfuscated SVGs used to draw individual letters, and running O…
