A PHD in math disproved an 87 year old math problem with about two hours of working with Anthropic Fable. The Jacobian conjecture (JC) has been disproved in dimension 3 (and thus all higher dimensions), via the explicit counterexample announced in that X post. The Jacobian conjecture (originally stated by Keller in 1939, with roots going back to Kraus in 1884) asserts the following over a field of characteristic zero be a polynomial map. If the Jacobian determinant det⁡(JF)\det(JF)\det(JF) is a nonzero constant, then (F) is invertible and its inverse is also a polynomial map (i.e., (F) is a polynomial…

Lenovo has revealed more details about an upcoming Legion gaming handheld that could be among the thinnest and lightest devices in its category. The Legion C700 will measure just 14.99mm at its thinnest point and weigh approximately 556 grams, or around 1.25 pounds. By comparison, Lenovo’s Legion Go S is 22.6mm thick and weighs about 730 grams, while the ASUS ROG Ally X measures 24.7mm and weighs 678 grams. Trimming these figures down should make the C700 much easier to hold for long periods and carry in a bag. But all of this portability comes at a cost–and that’s cloud…

The exploit did not involve a WhatsApp vulnerability, malware deployment, compromised credentials, or access to the targeted device.  The attack, dubbed HermeticReader, affected the Adobe Acrobat Chrome extension, which is installed in approximately 329 million browsers. Adobe patched…

According to new information from a tipster on X, Oppo is currently testing the upcoming Find X10, Find X10 Pro, and Find X10 Pro Max alongside the iPhone 17 Pro, presumably to compare their camera prowess against Apple’s latest flagship. The images below seem to show all three devices in a rig with the iPhone 17 Pro, and even though the Oppos are inside a case that’s meant to obscure their designs, we can make out the fact that they all appear to have an iPhone-like two-part rear panel design. Or, to put it another way, an iPhone-like gigantic rectangular…

It’s amazing how our perception of quality changes as we enjoy higher-resolution formats. Back in the day, I thought movies on DVD played great on my old-school TV. That was until I saw what Blu-ray looked like on modern flatscreens, and I had a similar epiphany when trying 4K UHD Blu-ray discs for the first time. Quality is relative, and in the era of high-resolution physical media and 4K streaming, we’re spoiled. That doesn’t mean we have to let the availability of higher-quality formats ruin our enjoyment of lower-quality formats. I spent a small fortune building a home theater centered…
