Motorola partners with GrapheneOS for future devices with official support, meeting privacy and security standards. Devices will have unlockable bootloaders and support for custom GrapheneOS builds.
Qwen3.5 model family supports fine-tuning with Unsloth, offering both vision and text fine-tuning options with various VRAM requirements. The model can be fine-tuned using transformers v5, with bf16 LoRA setups recommended for MoE models and 256GB VRAM required for Qwen3.5-122B-A10B.
The new Open Educational Resource (OER) explains how to develop, produce and use components in DC energy systems Within our community forum we aim to join forces and build renewable energy components together
The current system of scientific publishing is a scam where taxpayers pay for research, then pay private companies to publish it, and then pay again for scientists to read it, with the majority of the money going to CEOs. To fix this, the government should stipulate that research funded by grants cannot be published in for-profit journals, cutting out the middlemen and allowing for more open ...
The Wasteland is a platform that connects people to work on projects, earning stamps and reputation, and is designed to scale up to all the world's work. It uses a Git-based workflow, with a shared wanted board, and allows users to build their own work history and reputation.
Gustaf Blomqvist's thesis exposed a smartwatch for children's security disaster, allowing full control and potential denial-of-service attacks. The watch's vulnerability highlights the risks of software-based systems and the need for improved security.

This document describes a new Transport Layer Security (TLS) extension called Encrypted Client Hello (ECH) that encrypts the ClientHello message to protect sensitive information. ECH uses Hybrid Public Key Encryption (HPKE) and is supported in TLS 1.3, DTLS 1.3, and newer versions of the TLS and DTLS protocols.
Microsoft's Outlook rejected emails to certain IP addresses due to reputation rules or block lists, causing delivery issues for businesses. The problem worsened in February, affecting multiple users and prompting complaints on Microsoft's support forums.
A new regex engine called RE# was developed in F# that outperforms other industrial regex engines and supports intersection, complement, and context-aware lookarounds with linear-time guarantees. The engine uses a derivative-based approach and minterm compression to achieve high performance and supports leftmost-longest matching with bidirectional scanning.
TikTok won't introduce end-to-end encryption for DMs citing safety concerns. It prioritizes proactive safety over user privacy, arguing it helps prevent harm to young users.
A Canadian journal has corrected 138 case reports to add a disclaimer stating the cases are fictional. The corrections follow a New Yorker article that exposed a fabricated case report on opioid exposure through breast milk.

Jiga streamlines product sourcing by connecting engineers with vetted manufacturers and automating administrative tasks. This saves time and reduces costs, allowing engineers to focus on actual work.
The author enjoys coding for the process, not just the end result, but feels pressure from AI and quick apps making their work seem less valuable. They're focusing on what makes their app unique, personality, feel, and polish, to stand out in a crowded market.
The Human Genome Project released a nearly complete human genome sequence in 2001 after 10 years of work and $3 billion in research costs. DNA sequencing methods have evolved significantly since the 1940s, with various techniques such as Sanger sequencing, pyrosequencing, and nanopore sequencing being developed over the years.
Patterns for getting the best results out of coding agents like Claude Code and OpenAI Codex. See my introduction for more on this project.
The NeuralCPU is a GPU-based CPU that uses trained neural networks for all arithmetic operations, achieving speeds of 4,975 IPS and inverting the conventional CPU's MUL vs ADD performance. It supports two modes: Neural Mode, where every operation is a forward pass through a trained model, and Fast Mode, where the ALU uses native torch arithmetic for maximum throughput.
In an earlier post, I’ve shown how to calculate an RGB↔XYZ conversion matrix. It’s only natural to follow up with a code for converting between sRGB and XYZ colour spaces. While the matrix is a significant portion of the algorithm, there is one more step necessary: gamma correction. Human perception of light’s brightness approximates a power function of its intensity. This can be expressed as ...
Cloudflare's network observes requests to identify "toxic combinations" of minor security issues that can lead to major breaches, including exposed admin panels, debug flags, and misconfigured access controls. To mitigate these risks, Cloudflare recommends implementing WAF rules, authentication, and authorization, as well as disabling unnecessary endpoints and sanitizing inputs to prevent SQL ...

Coastal hazard assessments often inadequately handle sea-level and land elevation data, leading to underestimation of exposed areas and populations. Proper integration of sea-level height and coastal elevation is crucial for accurate assessments, especially in data-sparse regions.
