For those that are unfamiliar, Tim Roughgarden is a phenomenal instructor, and has made significant contributions to the field of algorithmic game theory, which has strong connecti…

Something that seems to have flown under the radar is that bun was originally a rewrite of Evan Wallace’s work (for those that don’t know, he’s a co founder of figma). What I’d lov…

I’m holding out hope that this could be utilized in a similar fashion to the Apple Vision Pro’s Remote Desktop. I’d love the chance to work in a coffee shop or plane and not need t…
