The Computer History Museum’s collection tells the biographies of its items, including an early Memorex videotape from 1968 recently acquired. The tape’s story begins with Debra Dunlop’s email about a collection belonging to her father, Robert Dunlop, an industrial psychologist at IBM, RCA, and Xerox. After receiving the collection, a rare video recording was discovered […]
This article delves into programming language memory models, exploring how parallel programs can share memory between threads and guarantee intended outcomes. It highlights issues with ordinary variables potentially leading to endless loops or incorrect outputs due to compiler optimizations. To resolve these issues, modern languages introduce atomic variables or operations for synchronization, ensuring that programs […]
Chemist Joe Schwarcz discovered an arithmetic error in a recent study that caused unnecessary panic about toxic chemicals in black plastic kitchenware. The study erroneously claimed that kitchen items could be poisoning people with flame retardant toxins, with headlines urging people to throw out their spatulas. However, the error in calculation showed that the actual […]

The author discusses their ongoing project of teaching a computer a proof of Fermat’s Last Theorem, focusing on formalizing modern mathematics using the Lean system. The project involves teaching the computer concepts like crystalline cohomology, with the challenge of fixing errors in established theories due to inadequate documentation. The story highlights the importance of formalizing […]
A developer encountered a series of errors while trying to add XAML support to their application by including the header file winrt/Windows.UI.Xaml.h. The errors were caused by a conflicting macro named ErrorMessage present in their project, which interfered with the method declaration in the C++/WinRT header file. The macro attempted to substitute parameters causing nonsensical […]
