The user built a wifi-controlled water gun to deter pigeons from their balcony using an iPhone camera and a python script with openCV. The system successfully kept pigeons away for six days before they adapted to the new threat, prompting the user to consider alternative solutions.
The Linux kernel on arm64 devices, including Pixel phones, has a non-randomized linear mapping memory region, allowing attackers to calculate a kernel virtual address for any physical address, which can be used to access kernel data even with KASLR enabled. This issue, combined with the kernel's static physical address on Pixel devices, makes it easier for attackers to exploit the kernel, and ...
The eForth project aims to create a modern, efficient, and easy-to-understand Forth implementation in C/C++ with multi-platform support, targeting a niche audience of C programmers who may find Forth more productive. The project's core implementation is based on an array of Code objects that represent each Forth word, with a focus on simplicity, elegance, and performance.
Spec-Driven Development is a process that flips traditional software development by making specifications executable and directly generating working implementations. It allows developers to focus on product scenarios and predictable outcomes.
A new study by Oxford Internet Institute found that many AI benchmarks lack scientific rigour, making it difficult to draw reliable conclusions about AI progress and safety. The study proposes eight recommendations to improve the validity of AI benchmarks, including defining and isolating concepts and using statistical methods.
The device is a high-aperture array for EME experiments and radio astronomy, requiring a 12 V DC power supply and an amateur radio license. It's intended for moon-bounce and one unit per person is allowed, with country restrictions applying.
Tabloid is a Turing-complete language for writing clickbait-style programs with unique features like automatic capitalization and quirky function declarations. It lacks built-in looping constructs, instead using recursion and has a simple syntax for variables and functions.
You're building a system where AI agents can handle complex software projects by creating tasks based on discoveries, not predefined instructions. This allows the workflow to adapt in real-time and branch itself based on actual discoveries.
The book explores programming language control structures from history to theory, covering imperative and functional languages. It offers a comparative perspective on programming languages and introduces algebraic effects and contemporary research topics.
The user created a font called Avería by averaging multiple fonts using ImageMagick and PHP, then refined the process to preserve sharp edges. Avería is now available under the SIL Open Font License with various variants.
A recent study found that younger adults in the US are experiencing a significant rise in cognitive disability, with 9.7% of those 18-39 years old reporting difficulty concentrating, remembering, or making decisions. This is attributed to the effects of social media and technology on the human mind.
Cloudflare used Linux's networking stack to build a high-performance VPN for WARP, a mobile-first performance and security app. They used Netfilter's NAT feature to securely egress arbitrary user packets from their edge machines.
