The author has updated their project on reverse engineering the 2021 Honda Civic headunit, revealing a vulnerability called "EvilValet" that allows arbitrary code execution via the update path. A new tool, ota-builder, has been published to easily prepare update files.
Software architecture is about making important design decisions that support a system's evolution, not just a one-time setup. Good architecture leads to faster delivery of new features, while poor architecture causes cruft, slowing down development.
Tribblix is an open source OS blending retro style with modern components, based on illumos. It's available for download in SPARC and x86 versions, with the x86 version being more stable.
The US Department of Commerce banned noise infusion from statistical products, targeting differential privacy, which adds noise to protect data privacy. This move may lead to less accurate or more vulnerable data, impacting researchers and demographic studies.
GLM-5.2, an open-source AI model, is now available to all users. It supports long-horizon tasks and is a step towards making frontier intelligence accessible to everyone.
You created a game where players control ghosts chasing Pac-Man with AI, but he turns the tables if he eats a power pellet. The goal is to catch Pac-Man before he clears the maze or escapes after turning the tables.
UI should be polished and consistent, with every frame mattering to build trust with users. A well-designed UI should look good in all states, not just start and end.
A user built a portable console using a used IBM 1U console, a terminal emulator, and a keyboard. The device has two modes: one for connecting to a terminal box and another for free connectors.
Free Oberon is a cross-platform IDE for the Oberon programming language, available for Windows, macOS, and Linux. It allows users to write, compile, and run programs in Oberon, with features like automatic linking and error detection.
Thousands of oncologists gave a standing ovation at a Chicago conference for daraxonrasib, a drug that almost doubles pancreatic cancer survival times. This breakthrough could impact Amazon and NASA's plans.
Python 3.14.0 introduced an incremental garbage collector but reverted the change in 3.14.5 due to higher memory usage. The incremental GC reduced pause times but increased memory usage, leading to its removal in favor of the traditional GC.
Pyodide now supports PEP 783, allowing Python packages to be published directly to PyPI and installed at runtime, reducing the burden on maintainers and enabling faster startup times. This release also includes several breaking changes, such as a new versioning scheme, removal of certain libraries, and updates to the ssl and hashlib modules.

ReactOS has achieved a milestone by running the classic game Half-Life on its open-source platform. This marks a significant step towards Windows binary compatibility for ReactOS.
The ddx3216 uses a 64k x 8bit rom-chip. the reset-vector has to be placed at 0xffff0 to make it compatible with the new cpu-cpecifications. so i searched for better solutions and found the picorom and onerom projects - and how to use them!... and if you have any questions, feel free to contact me :
This paper studies the effects of rent control on housing wealth in St. Paul, Minnesota, finding that property values fell by 4.4-5.8% after the law was enacted, with upper-income renters gaining more than lower-income renters. The results suggest that the distribution of benefits from rent control is regressive, with high-income renters receiving larger benefits than low-income renters, and ...
A few weeks ago an ordinary security assessment turned into an incident response whirlwind. the author discovered that libfsalvfs.so lets the malicous code inspect the decoded http packet - allowing it to bypass edr. q: who are these bad guys you keep referring to? a: i think it's the same guys that are behind the dreaded ssh keyloggers
Our free daily newsletter sends the stories that really matter directly to you, every weekday. We’ve all seen hearses. But if you’re buried after death, the hearse might not actually be the last vehicle you ever ride in (or … on). No, the final few feet you move under the power of combustion would be on a funny little purpose-built groundskeeping machine that you won’t see anywhere outside of ...
Researchers at UC San Diego are building a 2,000-phone computing cluster to reduce carbon emissions from computing. The cluster will provide low-cost, low-carbon cloud computing for researchers and students, reducing the need for newly-manufactured hardware.
Exif is a metadata format that stores image information like orientation, timestamp, and camera settings, and it's usually found in JPEG files near the beginning in an APP1 marker segment. Exif is optional and can be stripped, but it's often used by photo apps, websites, and asset-management systems to sort, search, and display images.

A new study by Oxford University found that genetic doubling events over 450 million years ago helped kick-start the evolution of complex brains in vertebrates. The events led to the emergence of different brain cell types, which are shared across vertebrates and form the basis of sophisticated brains.
User upgraded from RTX 5080 to a refurbished RTX 3090 for AI experiments. They successfully set up both cards on an Asus Prime X570-Pro motherboard, achieving 80+ tokens/sec with Qwen 3.6 model quantized at q8.
The Intel 8087 floating-point coprocessor uses a 69-bit adder to perform arithmetic operations, including addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and square root. The adder is divided into blocks of four bits, each using a Manchester carry chain and a carry-skip circuit to optimize performance.
