GLM 5.2, an open-weight model, beat Claude Code at IDOR detection with 39% F1, costing $0.17 per vulnerability found. The harness still matters more than the model, but open-weight models have crossed a threshold worth watching for security tasks.
US states and countries are introducing age verification regulations under the guise of protecting children, but it's actually a precursor to attributing digital identities to physical ones, making it easier for law enforcement to identify and harass individuals. This could lead to automated identity attribution and increased surveillance, allowing governments to target inconvenient people.
An AI resume screening tool is flawed due to non-deterministic outputs from its LLM, leading to inconsistent scores. This tool fails to differentiate between qualified and unqualified candidates, essentially filtering based on luck rather than quality.
Herdr is a terminal multiplexer with workspaces, panes, and tiling, supporting SSH and persistence. It uses explicit keybindings and shows agent states in the sidebar.
Give your coding agent the decisions your team already made — so it stops re-doing things you ruled out. Lore keeps your team's recorded knowledge — requirements, decisions, designs, roadmaps, and prompts — as typed Markdown in your repo and serves it read-only to Claude Code, Cursor, and Claude Desktop over MCP, so the agent cites your decisions instead of violating them. No RAG, no ...
At WWDC 2025, Apple announced macOS 26 Tahoe. One of the new features in macOS Tahoe is a new disk image format: ASIF. Designed for use with virtual machines (its documentation lives under the Virtualization framework), ASIF takes a lot of inspiration from existing virtual disk formats. Practically, that means it’s another sparse virtual disk format, and functions very similar to sparse VMDK, ...
The interactive dataset tracks historic and current memory and storage prices, including DRAM, NAND flash, and HBM, with modeled estimates from Epoch AI for AI-accelerator costs. The data is downloadable and includes quarterly updates for HBM and monthly updates for DRAM and NAND prices from 1957 to the present.
What do America’s earliest restaurant menus teach us about America?
The author used Opus 4.8 to analyze an MRI and got a second opinion on their diagnosis, which disagreed with the original doctor's report. The AI analysis found no partial-thickness tear, contradicting the doctor's diagnosis and making the author question the treatment plan.
Researchers introduced Proxy-KD, a method to transfer knowledge from black-box LLMs to smaller models efficiently. Proxy-KD surpasses traditional white-box KD techniques and enhances performance.
An article discusses Arabic typesetting complications, including the importance of ligatures in Arabic script. The inclusion of a special Unicode codepoint solved the problem of rendering the basmala phrase correctly.
Zanagrams is a free daily word puzzle. Drag across the letters to find the hidden words and watch the grid shrink as you solve it. A new Zanagrams puzzle every day.
The LineShine Supercomputer in China has taken the top spot on the 67th TOP500 list with 2.198 Exaflops of sustained FP64 performance. This is the first Chinese submission to the TOP500 in 9 years and marks a significant milestone for China's HPC capabilities.
The concept of tokenmaxxing, where companies spend large amounts of money on AI tokens without expecting a return, is not dead but rather evolving as companies realize the benefits of compounding correctness, where more tokens spent lead to better results. The shift towards open model platforms and generalist agents will lead to another rise in tokenmaxxing behavior, ultimately resulting in ...
The author visits Pinal Airpark in Arizona to see retired Boeing 747s, once the principal host of important journeys, now a symbol of American decline. The 747 was a technological innovation that embodied American might, invention, and progress, but its accidental longevity defined an era of decline.

Professor Roberto Serrano at Brown University detected massive cheating on a midterm exam using AI, with at least 50 students involved. He believes the university's response was inadequate and that AI is altering century-old traditions at elite universities, requiring a broader debate on academic integrity.
Aleph Alpha built Savanna, a model factory that automates the entire model training pipeline in code, making it easier to collaborate and scale. By implementing Model Training as Code (MTaC), Savanna reduces errors, costs, and organisational challenges, enabling teams to work more efficiently and paving the way for auto-research.
The KIDS Act package includes bills that require age verification, government-directed moderation, and new rules for private communications. This could lead to restrictive age-checking practices, reduced online privacy, and limited free expression.
The Loongson processor is a Chinese-developed CPU that emerged in 2001, initially based on MIPS architecture, and was later developed into a 64-bit processor. The Loongson processor was used in the Lemote Yeeloong laptop, a low-cost netbook that was released in 2008.
LibrePods is a project that allows non-Apple devices to use AirPods features. It implements the proprietary protocol used by Apple devices to exchange data with AirPods.
Daisugi, a Japanese technique, involves growing multiple trees from a single tree, creating a giant bonsai-like structure, but it's actually a form of coppicing, a common woodland management technique practiced for centuries. This method produces straight, usable timber without harming the original tree, and it's being re-emphasized as a sustainable way to manage woodlands.
A team encountered a bug in parsing timestamps in the year 0 due to a PHP DateTimeImmutable issue. The problem was caused by a timelib library bug, which has been reported and a pull request has been opened to fix it.
The Idler Academy offers online classes, retreats, and a magazine focusing on philosophy, history, and personal growth through education. Their mission is to promote freedom and fulfillment through learning and laughter.
What feature would you like to see? A mechanism to explicitly mark files/paths that the agent must not read or send to the model, at both repository and global levels (e.g., a repo-local .codexignore plus a global ignore file). Example: ...
The Space Shuttle's I/O Processor had 24 network connections and 25 virtual processors, implementing two different instruction sets. It used microcode to run the virtual processors on one physical processor.
Scientists have found potential evidence of life on Mars, but no conclusive proof, with the latest discovery being two chemicals formed by microbial activity or chemical reactions. The possibility of life on Mars has been tantalizing humans for over a century, with many previous claims debunked, but new research suggests life could exist underground.
A Polish user reported a bug on Medium where Ś wouldn't appear when typed. The issue was caused by Medium blocking CtrlS to prevent browser save dialogs, but Polish users use AltS to type Ś.
