Hyperdimensional computing (HDC) is attractive for efficient and robust learning, but conventional inference still encodes every query independently, repeatedly paying the cost of high-dimensional projection. We introduce SupHDC, a new inference paradigm that processes multiple queries through a shared encoding computation. SupHDC assigns lightweight random slot keys, superposes the keyed queries before encoding, and uses slot-specific classifiers to recover their individual predictions. A random-feature kernel view explains why exact recovery of each hypervector is unnecessary: inference only needs to preserve the class evidence that determines the prediction. Across ten datasets, SupHDC achieves 1.39x analytical speedup with no average accuracy loss, and up to 2.08x speedup with only a 2.67 percentage-point mean accuracy loss. On a Raspberry Pi~5, it delivers 2.01x measured wall-clock speedup with a 2.26 percentage-point loss in mean prediction accuracy. SupHDC shows that high-dimensional redundancy can be used not only for robustness, but also as capacity for shared inference.
The results indicate that software engineering work practices are chosen opportunistically, adapted and configured to provide value under the constrains imposed by the startup context.

It is proved that any global minimizer of the trajectory balance objective can define a policy that samples exactly from the target distribution, and empirically demonstrate the benefits of the trajectories balance objective for GFlowNet convergence, diversity of generated samples, and robustness to long action sequenc...

This work investigates the possibilities of using LLMs in a resume screening setting via a document retrieval framework that simulates job candidate selection and finds that the MTEs are biased, significantly favoring White-associated names in 85% of cases and female-associated names in only 11.1% of cases.
