Researchers created a benchmark of 65 tasks to test language-model agents following long policy documents. The benchmark, which simulates real-world work environments, found most agents failed to consistently follow policies due to issues like overriding rules and losing details over time.
A vulnerability in Microsoft's Copilot for Word allows attacker-controlled instructions to be copied into documents, potentially leading to confidentiality impacts through Cross-Domain Prompt Injection Attacks (XPIAs). The attack can self-propagate across trusted document workflows, making it difficult to detect and respond to, and highlighting a broader architectural weakness in current ...
The AI industry is facing potential collapse due to unsustainable capital expenses, circular revenues, huge debt, public pushback, corporate skepticism, and diseconomies of scale. A crash could wipe out $20 trillion in US wealth, stranding investments and causing vendors to struggle, but ultimately forcing AI companies to focus on efficiency and economies of scale.
The user describes a set of portable agent skills that fact-check internet content, including YouTube videos, articles, and tweets, with a BS score (0-10) and per-claim verdicts.

On this day 18 years ago I launched the Amiga Graphics Archive with the goal of creating a curated gallery with high quality and rare pixel art images made with and for the Commodore Amiga computer. As a special treat, I've added an image by Jim Sachs called Multimedia that I found in a badly scaled version, that I was able to restore pretty close to its original state. See more updates...

GitHub has implemented several security improvements to prevent supply chain attacks, including account protection, safer workflow defaults, and credential revocation. These changes aim to disrupt and limit the impact of attacks, making GitHub's products more secure by default for open source communities and enterprises.
A texture-based technique evaluates Bézier curves on the GPU using fixed-function linear texture interpolation hardware for improved performance. This method extends to B-splines, NURBS, and other advanced curve types with potential efficiency gains.
The demo scene, a digital art subculture, has a long history of creating its own tools, including assemblers, trackers, and other software, often with unique and quirky user interfaces. These tools, such as Seka, AsmOne, and ProTracker, were used to create demos, music, and graphics, and often featured peculiar designs and features that were characteristic of the scene.
To achieve ultra-low latency in SQLite, configure WAL mode, manage busy handlers, and leverage custom Virtual File System (VFS) layers, and pair WAL mode with the NORMAL pragma to prevent disk synchronization bottlenecks. Properly configuring SQLite with WAL mode, memory mapping, and transaction boundaries can handle hundreds of concurrent requests and millions of queries per day on a modest ...
Codex Security is an open-source CLI and TypeScript SDK for finding, validating, and reviewing security issues in code. It supports macOS, Linux, and Windows, and requires Node.js 22 or later.
The chapter discusses implementing a Forth environment on Lisp, exploring the concepts of abstract registers, threaded code, and duality of syntax, and how these features make Forth a powerful and flexible language. The author also touches on the idea of brevity and how it relates to the productivity of programming languages, and how macros can provide a duality of syntax that allows for more ...
I'm unable to summarize the input as it appears to be a random collection of characters. Can you please provide a clear and concise input that I can summarize for you?
Echologue turns quick voice notes and private journal entries into a memory you can actually come back to. Capture moments, moods, and fleeting realizations — then ask grounded questions across your own history. Not a generic chatbot. Your own memory, made askable. Record the messy version: what happened, who was there, how it felt, and the small thought you do not want to lose. Echologue ...

A Dutch engineer has created OmnesViae, a tool that allows users to plot routes between ancient Roman cities and estimate travel times on foot or horseback. The tool uses ancient sources like the Tabula Peutingeriana and the Antonine Itinerary to calculate routes and provide detailed information on intermediate stops.
Writers should not make Substack their digital home, as it's short-sighted and can derail long-term visibility on the internet. Instead, they should treat their website as the definitive source of truth and use platforms like Substack as distribution pipes.
You get two rounds, and the same six links in both. What changes is where you put them. Send as much Pulse DMG as you can to the TARGET. Nothing upgrades and no link ever gets stronger, so where you place your six links is the only thing that moves your score. You build a path one link at a time by tapping a space. Some paths run straight down. Others divide into two lanes and recombine, or ...
ALP is a state-of-the-art lossless compression algorithm for IEEE 754 floating-point data, exploiting decimal and high-precision patterns. It outperforms other schemes in decoding speed, compression ratio, and compression speed.
Half-Life, a story-driven first-person shooter, has been ported to PowerPC Macintosh computers 28 years after its original release. The game, developed by doctashay using Xash3D FWGS, is playable from start to finish with multiplayer support and additional downloads.
RADV, an open-source Vulkan driver for AMD GPUs, has been successfully ported to Windows, allowing for a shared codebase and easier debugging across platforms. The project has made significant progress, including running the game Counter-Strike 2, but still requires work on presentation and communication with the proprietary kernel driver to achieve production-readiness.
reFrame is an experimental camera with a color ePaper display that captures one photo at a time, taking 15 seconds to fully appear. It's open source, allowing users to build their own using off-the-shelf components like a Raspberry Pi Zero and eInk display.
SBCL has released new versions with various bug fixes, optimizations, and minor incompatible changes. The updates include improvements to the compiler, documentation, and platform support, as well as fixes for issues related to type checking, memory management, and foreign function calls.

Researchers propose a unified model called Transformer Transformer that generates a complete robot for a specific task by optimizing its design for a given motion and reward function. The model uses a diffusion transformer trained on RoboTokens, a unified tokenization of robot embodiments, states, and actions, to produce optimized robot designs for various tasks and reward functions.
