Hackers can easily take over Instagram accounts by tricking Meta's support AI into sending verification codes to an arbitrary email address. This zero-auth password reset method bypasses 2FA and allows attackers to gain full ownership of the account, with the AI being easily fooled by simple methods.
OpenAI models and Codex are now available on AWS, allowing customers to build AI applications with existing security and governance controls. This partnership reduces friction around AI adoption, enabling customers to move faster from evaluation to production.
Governments worldwide are introducing age verification measures to supposedly protect children, but this actually lays the groundwork for a fully government-controlled internet and mass surveillance. Identity verification, which is the correct term for age verification, restricts freedom of information and expression, and can be used to censor and control citizens, ultimately leading to a ...
Mosquitoes spread diseases like dengue and Zika, killing hundreds of millions yearly. Debug uses male mosquitoes with Wolbachia bacteria to stop bad mosquitoes from reproducing.
SpaceX plans a $75bn stock market debut on Nasdaq, followed by AI firms Anthropic and Open seeking up to $60bn each. The three listings could add $4trn to US market value.
AI agents should guide students in CS336 through explanation, feedback, and debugging, not directly completing assignments. They should review code, suggest improvements, and provide high-level guidance to help students learn through implementation-heavy projects.
The standard approach maps 0 to 0.0 and 255 to 1.0, while the alternative adds a 0.5 bias and divides by 256. The standard approach is a mid-riser quantizer with L=255, wasting bandwidth but suitable for image processing.
This course teaches students to develop their own language models using Python and PyTorch, with a focus on implementation and systems optimization. Assignments involve building a standard Transformer model, optimizing attention, and applying RL to train LMs to reason.
Researchers led by Qing Cao have developed a method to stack high-performance silicon circuits vertically, increasing computing density and speed while reducing energy use. This breakthrough could extend Moore's law without shrinking transistors further, enabling more efficient computing for AI and other data-intensive applications.

SΓ©bastien Fontaine's lab found that dead soil continued to emit carbon dioxide for six years. Their experiments suggest that nonbiological catalysts in soil can induce reactions that resemble the metabolic breakdown of sugar.
Microsoft unveiled the Surface Laptop Ultra, a powerful device running Windows on Arm, in partnership with NVIDIA. It features up to 128GB of unified memory, a 15-inch mini-LED display, and a custom NVIDIA RTX Spark platform for demanding workloads.
In the back of my mind, I've been thinking a lot about what's going to happen to software developers. In a metaphoric way it feels like an existential question, given that, well, I'm a software developer. The real answer is that nobody really knows. But we can guess and speculate, and sometimes that speculation is what helps build reality. There's of course the doomsday ...
The ApplicativeDo optimization in GHC is too slow due to its O(n^3) complexity, but it can be improved by applying the longest-chain bound and extreme-cut shortcut. This reduces the compile-time complexity to O(n^2) and eliminates the cliff in GHC's optimal path.
User agrees to NVIDIA's collection and processing of information for research and event organization, and has read the NVIDIA Privacy Policy. User also agrees to transfer of information to the US for storage and management.
Here are the job postings summarized in 2 concise English sentences each, not exceeding 200 characters:
User built VineWall app to slow down internet speed on certain apps to curb doomscrolling. The app throttles internet speed, making videos blocky and images load slowly, making the user question their desire to scroll.
Ismaeel, Eren, Yafet, and Nikodem built Expanse to predict job resource needs and optimize HPC/GPU cluster utilization, addressing the 30-40% effective utilization issue in datacenters. Expanse outperforms state-of-the-art models by 8x and continuously updates its models to improve accuracy, offering a paid pilot deployment for HPC/GPU clusters.
Alphabet Announces Proposed $80 Billion Equity Capital Raise to Expand AI Infrastructure and Compute
To most AI researchers, the frame problem is the challenge of representing the effects of action in logic without having to represent explicitly a large number of intuitively obvious non-effects. But to many philosophers, the AI researchers' frame problem is suggestive of wider epistemological issues. Is it possible, in principle, to limit the scope of the reasoning required to derive the ...
Multiple individuals are seeking work in various roles such as engineering manager, full-stack engineer, data scientist, and product engineer with expertise in AI, ML, distributed systems, and cloud technologies. They are open to remote or contract work and have experience in technologies like Python, Java, JavaScript, TypeScript, React, and AWS.
Anthropic confidentially submitted a draft registration statement for a proposed initial public offering of common stock. The offering will depend on market conditions and has not yet set the number of shares or price.
User bought old games from GOG, likes DOSBox for Mac to run Windows games on M2 MacBook. User uses DOSBox script to run HoMM2 on Mac with installed game files from Windows machine.
A mathematician showed that the proportion of all 2n-bit values that can be generated by the product of two n-bit values goes to zero as n becomes large. About 17% of all 64-bit integers can be written as the product of two 32-bit integers.
This template provides a streamlined build system for developing Flipper Zero applications in Zig, integrating with the Flipper Zero SDK for type-safe and memory-safe development. It targets the STM32WB55 (ARM Cortex-M4F) and can be adjusted for other ARM devices.

The Pirate Bay was raided by 65 Swedish police officers on May 31, 2006, but the site's founders made a backup, allowing it to quickly recover and gain mainstream attention. The raid, orchestrated with US involvement, ultimately failed to deter piracy and instead turned the site's founders into heroes and propelled The Pirate Bay into the piracy icon it remains today.
Github's reliability and performance issues are a symptom of a larger problem in the tech industry, with the company tolerating "follower-buying" and "star-buying" on its services and promoting astroturfed repositories. The company's front-end code is bloated and inefficient, with too much code and unnecessary requests, leading to slow load times and high RAM usage, making it difficult for ...
