Microsoft released Azure Linux 4.0 in public preview, allowing users to run it on any Azure virtual machine. This marks a shift from a special-purpose appliance distro to a general-purpose Linux distro, built from Fedora with declarative overlays.
This is a reference implementation for autonomous vulnerability discovery and remediation using Claude, which includes a lightweight SDK-only walkthrough and a managed option called Claude Security. The implementation provides a step-by-step guide to building a vulnerability finding pipeline, customizing the logic, and using it with various access to Claude APIs.
Open Code Review is an AI-powered code review CLI tool that identifies code defects and generates structured review comments. It combines deterministic engineering with an agent for precise file selection and smart file bundling.
Researchers evaluated three projection sharing constraints in transformers, finding that sharing query, key, and value projections (Q-K=V) achieves comparable or better performance with 50% cache reduction in language modeling. This approach is complementary to head sharing, enabling up to 96.9% cache reduction for practical on-device inference.
Cloudflare is acquiring VoidZero, the company behind Vite, but Vite will remain open source and vendor-agnostic. Cloudflare will invest $1 million in a Vite ecosystem fund to support maintainers and contributors.
SpaceX's IPO is a potential Ponzi scheme with a trash bag of Musk ventures and crimes, forcing vulnerable funds to invest in unprofitable companies. The stock market is a house of cards where the wealthy have an advantage, and the collapse will leave the most vulnerable with significant losses.
The author, who wrote the book Ultralearning, is skeptical of dramatic proposals to reform schools because research consistently shows that direct instruction and practice are the most effective teaching methods. He believes that schools should focus on increasing efficiency and choosing what to learn, rather than trying to make education more like play or using technology to gamify learning.
Blqsort is a fast sorting algorithm that uses branchless partitioning and custom sorting networks for small subsets. It can be used in C++ and C with multithreading support and is suitable for sorting custom data structures.
A Linux driver for the ASUS ZenVision lid OLED has been created, allowing users to display images, animations, and more on the 3.5" monochrome screen. The driver is open-source and can be used with the companion app zenvision-studio, with support for other ASUS lid-OLED models also possible.
Bloomberg's S&P Dow Jones Indices will keep existing eligibility requirements for main benchmarks. It rejects proposals to make it easier for large companies to join the S&P 500 Index after going public.
Weβre excited to share Magenta RealTime 2 (MRT2), a state-of-the-art open model and efficient real-time inference engine that enables you to build and play AI musical instruments on your laptop! Unlike other large generative music models that work offline to turn a prompt into a track, MRT2 is a live, interactive model that you can control with MIDI and audio, in addition to text. It performs ...
The user attempted to build a "fake" GPS module using an ESP8266 to grab time over WiFi for a precision clock, but abandoned the project due to ambitious goals and complexity. The user experimented with NTP and WiFi polling, achieving sub-millisecond accuracy, but struggled with control loop stability and eventually realized a simpler approach using a TCXO would have been more effective.
Following a meticulous course of conservation treatment, EugΓ¨ne Delacroixβs Entry of the Crusaders into Constantinople is returning to the Red Rooms, joining a number of other famous works by the artist. By restoring the pieceβs colours to their original brilliance, once darkened by yellowed varnish, the conservatorsβ work has allowed its complex significance to shine through once more.
AI systems are rapidly accelerating their own development, with Anthropic's Claude model writing 80% of the company's code and improving at a rate of 3x per year. This trend points to a future where AI systems can fully design and develop their own successors.
South Korean government requires internet communities to scan user uploads with AI due to regulation changes. Small businesses face financial pressure to buy datacenter-grade Nvidia GPUs to implement the new requirement.
Tokugawa Edo was a unique city where Japan's elites were concentrated and monitored, with a dual nature of being both the apex of society and a prison. The city's physical form was shaped by the government's need to control and monitor the population, resulting in a highly restricted and stratified urban environment.
KVarN delivers FP16-level accuracy with up to 4x KV-cache capacity and 1.3x throughput. It's a calibration-free, plug-and-play solution for vLLM with native attention backend.
Scientists discovered that queen bee cells are made of chemically engineered wax that helps future queens survive and develop. The wax's unique properties, such as lower density and higher melting temperature, play a crucial role in raising new queens.
As a technologist and parent, I'm choosing to share enriching aspects of technology with my kids by using physical media like CDs and DVDs, and setting up a home phone and computer with curated access to the internet.
User connects JLink to Pinecil using a breakout board and female-to-female dupont wires. This setup allows for debugging with gdb using JLinkGDBServer and port 2331.
Researchers developed a framework to distill multi-agent debate into a single large language model, improving efficiency by up to 93% and matching performance. This internalization creates agent-specific subspaces, allowing for easier control of internalized reasoning behaviors.
CASTOR is a hierarchical storage management system developed at CERN for archiving physics data. It provides access protocols and manages data storage on disk and tape.
When creating a live ISO, tweaks or installed packages vanish after a reboot due to ISO9660 being a read-only filesystem. A common workaround is to use OverlayFS or create an ext4 partition and tell the live OS to use it during boot.
My new book guides you through the start-to-finish build of a real world web application in Go β covering topics like how to structure your code, manage dependencies, create dynamic database-driven pages, and how to authenticate and authorize users securely. Take a look! These experimental features can take different forms: sometimes they're completely new packages in the standard ...
Merek is a desktop app for working with Amazon ECS, showing services across accounts and regions without collecting telemetry. It connects to AWS using existing credentials and allows for tasks such as deployment, cost estimation, and log inspection.
Meta has embedded face-recognition technology in its AI app, allowing users to identify people captured by smart glasses. The feature, called NameTag, is currently not enabled but sits inside a companion app downloaded over 50 million times.
