RNG: Flat Datacenter Networks at Scale
We design and deploy in production the first flat datacenter networks. Our design, called RNG, is based on quasi-random graphs. While the cost and fault-tolerance benefits of such topologies have been long known, their practical realization has been hampered by a lack of scalable routing and cabling approaches. RNG has a new distributed routing protocol that exploits the properties of random graphs to find a large number of edge disjoint paths between pairs of endpoints. It uses a novel passive…

The goal is to create a set of norms informed by various faiths. Baroness Joanna Shields, a key partner, emphasized the importance of this dialogue. However, some critics argue this approach may distract from broader AI issues. While companies like Anth…

Under the administration’s own legal theory,
a president could destroy some of America’s most iconic landmarks

Many people suspected this was the strategy, and now it is being argued in court. The Trump admin’s position is that if it moves quickly enough to dismantle or alter public assets, courts may be unable to stop it after the fact. In effect, “move fast and break things” is becoming a legal defense. D...

A federal judge has ruled that the Defense Department is violating his earlier order to restore access to the Pentagon for reporters.

He sided again with the Times in saying that the Pentagon had tried to evade his ruling by putting in new rules that expel all reporters from the bu…

A new discovery about carbon dioxide is challenging decades-old ventilation doctrine
CO2 is a good proxy for how much exhaled — and potentially infectious — air is in a room. New research suggests the more CO2 there is, the more virus-friendly the air becomes.
