Global maternal mortality rates have fallen by almost 60% since 1985
The image presents a line graph depicting global maternal mortality rates from 1985 to 2023. The y-axis represents the number of maternal deaths per 100,000 live births, ranging from 0 to 500, while the x-axis spans the years from 1985 to 2023. The graph shows a downward trend in maternal mortality rates, starting at approximately 460 in 1985 and declining steadily over the years. A notable increase is observed during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic, but by 2023, the rate has decreased to about 197. This marks a 57% reduction compared to the rates in 1985. Annotations highlight key points, such as the spike during the pandemic and the significant decrease achieved by 2023. The data sources for this graph include the WHO, UNICEF, UNFPA, World Bank, and UN DESA (2025). There is a note stating that the estimates aim to adjust for underreporting and misclassification.

Global inequality is the result of two centuries of uneven economic growth
A line graph depicting GDP per capita from 1820 to 2022, with the vertical axis representing GDP in international dollars (2011 prices) and the horizontal axis showing the years. Multiple colored lines represent different regions. The chart highlights a stark divergence: while average incomes in every region have increased, the pace of this growth has varied enormously. Western Europe and the “Western Offshoots” (like the US and Australia) experienced early and sustained economic growth. Meanwhile, Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia grew much more slowly.

We live in a state of Machine Angst. The age old story of fearing the unknown vs. inviting the adventure.

Data centers contributed 4.7 million jobs to the US economy between 2017 and 2023, a PwC study found. Most of them aren't direct tech jobs.
The AI data center boom will create new jobs. Most won't be at Amazon, Microsoft, Google, or Meta.

LLMs have shown impressive performance in some reasoning tasks, but what internal mechanisms do they use to solve these tasks? In a new preprint, we find evidence that abstract reasoning in LLMs depends on an emergent form of symbol processing arxiv.org/abs/2502.20332 (1/N)
Emergent Symbolic Mechanisms Support Abstract Reasoning in Large Language Models
Many recent studies have found evidence for emergent reasoning capabilities in large language models, but debate persists concerning the robustness of these capabilities, and the extent to which they ...

The 0.11 version will have more built-in `vim.fs` file system functions (handy for plugin authors): `abspath`, `relpath`, `rm`.

feat(lua): add `vim.fs.abspath` by famiu · Pull Request #28187 · neovim/neovim
Problem: There is currently no way to check if a given path is absolute or convert a relative path to an absolute path through the Lua stdlib. vim.fs.joinpath does not work when the path is absolut...

Reading "Emergent Abilities of Large Language Models".

Emergent Abilities of Large Language Models
Scaling up language models has been shown to predictably improve performance and sample efficiency on a wide range of downstream tasks. This paper instead discusses an unpredictable phenomenon that we...
