Attackers drained $285 million from Drift Protocol on April 1, 2026, in a 12-minute exploit targeting governance, not smart contract code. The hack was likely perpetrated by North Korean hackers using social engineering and durable nonces.
You're frustrated with Markdown's complexity and inconsistencies, particularly with inline HTML and multiple ways to write the same thing. You think a minimal, well-defined markup language with a build system and compile-time hooks could solve many problems.
The team created a virtual filesystem called ChromaFs to power their documentation assistant, allowing it to explore documentation like a codebase without the need for real sandboxes. ChromaFs uses a Chroma database to provide instant session creation, zero marginal compute cost, and built-in role-based access control, replacing the need for expensive sandboxes.
TinyGo brings Go to embedded systems and the web with a new LLVM-based compiler. It supports over 100 microcontrollers and produces WebAssembly code for web and edge computing.
Young people aged 18-24 are now social-first rather than online-first when it comes to news, with 39% saying social media is their main source of news. They consume news less frequently and are less interested in news overall.
The user had trouble removing Samsung Magician, a disk utility software, from their Mac due to its poor uninstallation process. They had to use multiple commands and even disable and re-enable System Integrity Protection to delete the remaining files.
The terms big endian and little endian refer to the order of a value's bytes in memory, with big-endian storing the most significant part first. QEMU provides a solution to test big-endian systems by emulating a big-endian architecture and cross-compiling code.
The technocracy movement, founded in 2021, aimed to replace democracy with a system led by engineers and technicians, but it failed and is now largely forgotten. However, its ideas have unconsciously influenced the 21st century tech elite, who pursue a similar philosophy through more covert means.
TurboQuant compresses high-dimensional vectors to 2-4 bits per coordinate with near-optimal distortion. It's online, zero-training, and faster than FAISS IndexPQFastScan on ARM and within 18-25% on x86.
A Python CLI uses neural linguistic steganography to hide data in recipe blog introductions. It encodes data as natural language using arithmetic coding steganography, requiring the same model and prompt for decoding.
The user set up a local dial-up ISP using a Raspberry Pi and an old modem to emulate a dial-up connection on an iBook G3 from 1999. They used a phone line simulator and a USB modem to establish a connection and browsed the internet using Macproxy Classic.
SSH certificates provide a better and more seamless SSH experience by eliminating the need for Trust on First Use (TOFU) and allowing for short-lived keys, forced-commands, and automated key management. An SSH CA can be used to sign host keys and user keys, making it easier to manage SSH connections and eliminating the need for manual key deployment and TOFU.
apfel is a CLI tool that exposes Apple's built-in LLM on Macs with Apple Silicon. It provides a way to access the LLM through a terminal, code, or chat, without network calls or API keys.
The author analyzes the structure of dataframes and identifies three fundamental operations: Delta (restructuring), Sigma (merging), and Pi (pairing), which can be used to build a dataframe algebra. Category theory provides a framework for understanding these operations and their relationships, allowing for a more principled design of dataframe libraries.
User needs to register or sign in with developer credentials and ensure a unique User-Agent string to access the application. Alternatively, try resetting to default User-Agent or file a ticket for assistance.
Espressif Systems announces ESP32-S31, a high-performance SoC with Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.4, and Ethernet for IoT applications. It features a dual-core RISC-V microcontroller, robust security, and comprehensive connectivity for smart appliances and industrial automation.
The author of this blog post is a Collabora employee who works on LibreOffice support and services. They express concern over the TDF board's actions, particularly the ejection of long-time contributors without explanation or apology.
A self-replicating industrial seed on Mercury grows exponentially through 58 doublings, but local power and surface area limitations force a transition to a heliocentric power-and-logistics system. The project's growth regime changes from Mercury-disk-limited to collector-limited, with the sunward collector and microwave return link becoming the primary power source.
NHS staff are refusing to work on the Federated Data Platform due to ethical concerns with US-based provider Palantir. The government is under pressure to eject Palantir from NHS systems amid growing dissent over the company's suitability to manage national health data.
Developers built an autonomous agent that generates API integrations across five platforms in 15 minutes and under $20, using skills and a simple orchestrator. The agent learned from its mistakes and was improved with better instructions, tighter edit permissions, and explicit checks to produce trustworthy integrations.
Solar and batteries can supply 90% of electricity for 80% of the world's population at less than 80 €/MWh by 2030. Adding wind and other energy sources can help alleviate costs in high-latitude regions.
Type theory is a mathematical theory that is an alternative to set theory and category theory, and it is used to define collections of objects that are interesting without accidentally defining collections that lead to paradoxes. Type theory is based on the idea that the interesting collections are the source and target of functions, and it is used to define types and functions in a way that ...

Tailscale's macOS app had an issue where its icon would be hidden in the notch of some MacBooks. A small fix was implemented to notify users when the icon is hidden.
Build autonomous agents that plan, navigate apps, and complete tasks on your behalf, with native support for function calling. These models were evaluated against a large collection of datasets and metrics to cover different aspects of text generation. See additional benchmarks in model card.
Cursor 3 is a unified workspace for building software with agents, bringing clarity to agent work and a higher level of abstraction. It's faster, cleaner, and more powerful, with a multi-repo layout and seamless handoff between local and cloud agents.
No masterpiece was damaged after hackers targeted Florence’s Uffizi Galleries’ surveillance infrastructure. U.S. President Donald Trump gives a final heave to try and keep under-pressure Prime Minister Viktor Orbán in power. Vice-chancellor Andi Babler said his country wants “nothing to do with Trump’s policy of chaos and his war.”
