The user discusses issues with CPAN and PBP, and their decision to use STM32F103 instead of ATmega328 for faster performance. They also mention their use of CAN protocol, Perl, and Rust for various projects and tasks.
Delve, a compliance company, uses fake evidence and fabricated audit reports to make companies appear compliant with frameworks like SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, and GDPR. Delve's platform relies on pre-populated templates, manual forms, and dodgy auditors to produce reports that falsely claim independent verification, putting clients at risk of criminal liability and hefty fines.
The author has released a new open-source project called NumKong, which is a collection of over 2,000 SIMD kernels for mixed precision numerics, and has discussed the state of RISC-V, Intel's Advanced Matrix Extensions (AMX), and Apple's Scalable Matrix Extensions (SME). The author has also compared NumKong to other libraries such as OpenBLAS and Eigen, highlighting its advantages in terms of ...
On 28 April 2025, a total blackout occurred in continental Spain and Portugal, with disruptions in a small area of Southwest France. An Expert Panel investigated the incident and released a final report on 20 March 2026 with recommendations to prevent similar events.
People are excited about bespoke software, but most users don't want to build custom tools, they want solutions to their problems. AI will be used for various tasks, but building custom systems will remain the domain of experts and enthusiasts.
Safehemo is a pre-alpha demonstration for home dialysis, connecting patients, clinics, and communities in a secure ecosystem. It provides real-time monitoring and alerts for critical events, but is not a medical device and should not be used in emergencies.

My friend Henrietta Dombrovskaya pinged me on Telegram. Her production cluster had just been killed by the OOM killer after eating 2 TB of RAM. work_mem was set to 2 MB. Hetty, like me, likes playing with monster hardware. 2 TB of RAM is not unusual in her world. But losing the whole cluster to a single query during peak operations is a very different kind of problem from a 3am outage. When ...

ArXiv, a preprint server, will become an independent nonprofit corporation on July 1 after over 2 decades of being hosted by Cornell University. This move aims to raise more money from a broader range of donors to fund staffing and technology for the site's growing number of preprints.
The author of csskit developed a minifier test suite and discovered that precise enough is almost never more than 3 decimal places for colours like oklch and oklab, and even less for lab and lch. The author found that 3dp is enough for most colour operations, with 1dp sufficient for lab/lch and 0dp for sRGB, and that this rule holds uniformly across different colour spaces and operations.
The FSF received a notice about a settlement in the Bartz v. Anthropic lawsuit over copyright infringement of works used to train LLMs. The FSF urges Anthropic to provide LLMs to users in freedom, including complete training inputs and source code.
