HardenedBSD's Radicle integration is now usable, but still has performance issues and needs further work. Users should configure Radicle to support larger repos by editing ~/.radicle/config.json.
Law is a graph of provisions with hierarchical structure, requiring stable fine-grained addresses for external reference. A replay compiler like LawVM captures the text layer correctly as a reproducible process, separating it from the semantic layer for accurate normative analysis.
Rocky is a Rust-based control plane for warehouse pipelines with features like branches, replay, and compile-time safety. It helps prevent data corruption and provides column-level lineage and cost attribution.
Gongyu Su from EETree LLC, the new Tindie ownership team, apologizes for recent downtime and disruption. They plan to stabilize the platform, resolve issues, and invest in Tindie's future as a marketplace for makers and creators.
An autonomous research loop was tested outside its comfort zone, achieving a 92% improvement over a baseline VexRiscv CPU on CoreMark iter/sec. The loop's success was due to a verifier that caught and rejected incorrect hypotheses.
The internet has lost many services and platforms over the years, including ICQ, MSN Messenger, AOL Instant Messenger, and others. These services were once popular but eventually shut down or merged with other platforms.
The Withnail coat from the 1987 film Withnail & I is a distinctive and iconic piece of men's clothing. It was designed by Andrea Galer and made from a unique Heather Brown tweed fabric.
Researchers propose a low-compilation-cost strategy called LCCRA to improve register allocation in LLVM-based binary translators, reducing end-to-end latency and compilation overhead. LCCRA achieves a 5.76%-7.79% reduction in end-to-end latency and a 69.55%-74.98% reduction in register allocation time in various translation scenarios.
Matt Garman and Sam Altman discussed how AWS and OpenAI are partnering to make AI more accessible to businesses, with Bedrock Managed Agents being a key product that integrates OpenAI models with AWS infrastructure. The integration of models and harnesses is crucial for making AI work effectively, and the partnership aims to make it easier for businesses to build and deploy AI-powered agents.
Wiz Research discovered a critical vulnerability (CVE-2026-3854) in GitHub's internal git infrastructure that allowed remote code execution on shared storage nodes and full server compromise on GitHub Enterprise Server. GitHub mitigated the issue within 6 hours and released patches for all supported versions.
It takes more than 150 people to make a cup of coffee, from farmer to barista. But if that final person makes a mistake, your precious coffee is wasted. Michael Allen investigates whether physics can help us brew smarter so we don’t waste a product that’s threatened by climate change Espresso, flat white, cappuccino, cortado – there are dozens of ways you can get your coffee fix. Every day ...
The user manufactured a fake 6 Nimmt! World Championship title by creating a seeded website and a Wikipedia edit, demonstrating a cheaper and easier attack on LLM trust models. This attack, known as the circular citation pattern, can compromise LLMs by creating a fake source that appears trustworthy, highlighting the need for better source verification and provenance surfacing in AI systems.
Using AI coding tools like Claude Code raises complex questions about code ownership, copyright, and regulatory compliance, and developers must document their creative contributions to establish meaningful human authorship. Employment contracts and IP clauses can also impact code ownership, and developers should read their contracts and consider using personal tools and accounts to avoid ...
KAUST researchers found gallium oxide devices can operate at extremely low temperatures, enabling applications like quantum computing and space exploration. The devices use silicon atoms to help electrons flow, allowing them to work at temperatures as low as 2 K.
Researchers have created a 13B vintage language model called talkie-1930-13b-base trained on 260B tokens of historical pre-1931 English text to simulate conversations with people from the past. The model's performance is compared to its modern counterpart, with talkie underperforming in some standard LM evaluations but showing similar performance on core language understanding and numeracy tasks.
Warp's client is now open-source, allowing the community to participate in building it using an agent-first workflow managed by Oz. This change aims to accelerate product development and give developers a chance to shape the future of agentic development.
Google is imposing a developer verification requirement on Android, which critics say is a move to consolidate power and control over the open ecosystem. This change could effectively make Google the gatekeeper for all apps on certified Android devices.
Neuroscientists have discovered a new form of neuroplasticity called behavioral timescale synaptic plasticity (BTSP) that helps the brain learn from a single experience. BTSP strengthens synapses across several seconds, allowing the brain to capture behavioral processes of learning.
Intel Arc Pro B70 is a professional GPU with 32 GB VRAM, offering improved performance over the B50, but still trailing behind NVIDIA and AMD GPUs in most workloads. It excels in AI-inference workloads, outperforming the R9700 in MLPerf and offering a promising configuration for multi-GPU inference workstations.
The internet has evolved from a physical place we visited to a pervasive, always-on environment that erodes our capacity for rootedness and freedom. To recover a healthier digital culture, we must reimagine the internet as a place we choose to enter and leave on human terms.
