The author learned from business school that good ideas don't need lies to gain acceptance and that dishonest forecasters are worthless. This principle helped the author predict the Iraq War's failure due to false claims about WMDs and the importance of audit to prevent such errors.
The user wants a simple system to track installed tools on their development machine. A Makefile-based system with .mk files for each package manager and a script (hm.sh) for interactive installation and management meets this need.
Vector meson dominance is a concept where photons are slightly contaminated by neutral rho mesons, which are quark-antiquark pairs with spin 1. The neutral rho meson was first predicted in 1959 and later found to be part of an SU(2) gauge field, which is a precursor to gauge theory.
Two new attacks, GDDRHammer and GeForge, demonstrate how malicious users can gain full root control of a host machine by performing novel Rowhammer attacks on high-performance Nvidia GPU cards. The attacks exploit memory hardware's susceptibility to bit flips, allowing attackers to manipulate GPU page tables and gain access to host CPU memory.
LinkedIn scans users' computers for installed software without consent, collecting data on job search activity, religious beliefs, and competitor products. BrowserGate is a campaign to expose this corporate espionage and data breach scandal, seeking funds and public support to hold LinkedIn accountable.
A growing number of NHS staff are reportedly refusing to work on the Federated Data Platform (FDP) due to ethical concerns with its US-based provider, Palantir.
