First steps in bare-metal programming using UEFI – series indexThese articles are about using a Linux workstation to develop bare-metal applications for a PC-type computer with UEFI firmware.

They are written for experienced Linux developers, but assume no prior knowledge of UEFI.

The articles cover the software tools needed, how to compile and link, how to create a bootable disk, and basic file management.

Please note that I wrote these articles to be read in order.

Each one relies on information from the previous articles, and it might be difficult to follow them out of sequence.

CPU disk delta weight sync#To explain our design progression, we need to understand the foundations of delta weight sync and why a naive implementation is not enough.

# trainer mask = weights_old ⊕ weights_new # rollout weights_updated = weights_old ⊕ mask = weights_newThe core of delta weight sync is the bitwise XOR ( ⊕ ) operation.

The MustCreate Pattern for Go TestsI recently discovered a handy way to make Go tests more readable and less repetitive.

if err != nil { t.Fatalf( "failed to create username: %v" , err) } // Perform the test assertion I actually care about.

New solution: A single, generic MustCreate helper 🔗︎In 2022, Go 1.18 added support for generics.

I invoke MustCreate like this in my tests:testutil.MustCreate(t, NewUsername, "joe123" )The above call is equivalent to this more explicit version:testutil.MustCreate[ string , Username](t, NewUsername, "joe123" )When I call MustCreate here, RawInput is string (the type of the raw username value), and CreatedValue is Username (the return type).

It’s equivalen…

Upgrading NetBSD from 11.0 to 11.1I successfully upgraded my NetBSD amd64 system (with one hiccup, detailed below) from 11.0 to 11.1:$ uname -v NetBSD 11.1 (GENERIC) #0: Mon Nov 2 16:34:32 UTC 2026 [email protected]:/usr/src/sys/arch/amd64/compile/GENERICThis was my first time upgrading NetBSD and I’m happy with how it all turned out!

NetBSD’s Guide describes two different methods for performing an upgrade: boot from NetBSD install media and use sysinst(8) , or use sysupgrade(8) to do an in-place upgrade of the system.

With a bit of research, I get the sense that for major version changes (i.e 10.1 -> 11.1) sysinst is the preferred method, while sysupgrade is a convenient alternati…

AI_IDN is a glibc extension that tells getaddrinfo() the name might be an internationalized domain name, so it should be converted to ASCII before lookup.

Perception DeceptionThe address is still just a number, so the trick is not in getaddrinfo() — it is in the address bar.

The same trick works with the plain hex form, which is the cleanest because nothing has to be mapped:curl images.google.com:static-uploads@0xcdb97a5a/?picture_of_you.png └── user ──┘ └── pass ──┘ └── host = 205.185.122.90 ──┘ └── path ─┘Two things make it stick.

The browser or the reader sees a path to an image; getaddrinfo() sees a number and connects to it.

Audio exists in memory only for as long as the speech model needs to hear it.

Transcripts and notes are stored on your device, one encrypted file per meeting.

The file key never leaves the keychain.

The vault key exists as twenty-four words on paper and in the keychains of your devices.

It leaves a device only once: encrypted for a phone you pair, over your own network.

A free software driver does exist, called Nouveau (kernel and OpenGL Mesa driver) and NVK (Vulkan driver).

Chimera at this point does not, and Void Linux on musl does not as it shares packaging with the glibc branch.

GLVND is not only useful for NVIDIA drivers, but in general it is the primary thing users will find useful.

GitHub thinks I have two unread notifications.

The Inbox badge says 2 .

Yes, I have too many unread notifications.

As you can see above, the Mobile Inbox html shows 2,240 and the repository counts also added up to 2,240 .

The badge with the number should give me a sense of how many unread notifications I have, at a glance.

« Back to articles I Dumped Apple's Fucking Word List November 3, 2026 TL;DR ~/Library/Keyboard/VulgarWordUsage.db is real.

When you type a vulgar word and keep it, its count goes up for that app and those recipients.

When the engine ranks suggestions, it asks whether every vulgar word in a candidate is allowlisted for this context.

The gist also explains why mine is empty: a row is only written when autocorrect offers to replace a vulgar word and you keep the original.

As far as I can tell, a sensitive word is one the keyboard shouldn't suggest on its own.

Gavriel Cohen, creator of NanoClaw and co-founder of NanoCo, joins Adam to explain how a 40-hour weekend project became a viral open source hit and the foundation of an enterprise AI company.

Gavriel describes the security concerns that led him to build a small, container-isolated alternative to OpenClaw, why he released it under the MIT license, and why the project’s community and credibility are more valuable than keeping its code private.

They explore the shift from writing code to architecting the environments in which agents work, NanoClaw’s “skills over features” approach, the approval and governance layers required inside large companies, and a future where every worker manages agent…

ZDNET’s key takeawaysHR sees AI reskilling potential, but outside hiring outpaces internal moves.

Organizations are hiring externally instead.

However, the findings suggest that these organizations may believe they are prioritizing internal talent development, even though their hiring practices reveal otherwise.

How AI hiring and reskilling differ by industryResponse to AI-related workforce needs isn’t equal across the board.

External hiring cost more than filling roles internallySeparate research from The Josh Bersin Company, cited in the Careerminds white paper, reveals that external hiring can cost three to five times more than filling comparable roles internally — and on average takes u…

ZDNET’s key takeawaysThe Pixel 11 series has several useful features off by default.

I’ve been a dedicated Pixel user since the beginning, so I was naturally excited to get my hands on Google’s latest iteration, the Pixel 11 Pro XL.

Customize your lock screen widgetsPixel’s “At a Glance” lock screen widgets are one of the most sneakily useful features, and you’re missing out if you’re not using them.

To customize your widgets, go to Settings > Wallpaper & style > More lock screen settings > Widgets on lock screen.

Google says the mode should charge the Pixel 11 and 11 Pro to over 50% in 30 minutes, and the Pixel 11 Pro XL to 75% in 30 minutes.

You can then ask Claude where you spent your money this month or whether you can afford to take a vacation in six months, for example.

When you chat with Claude in the Personal Finance hub, those conversations aren’t used to train our models.”That last part is important: Personal Finance in Claude is its own mode with its own protections.

If you share or discuss your financial data with Claude outside that “hub,” it’s subject only to your Claude privacy settings.

Anthropic noted that users shouldn’t look to Personal Finance for Claude as a total authority.

“Personal Finance is a first step.

Wireless lossless audio and seconds-long firmware downloads are top features.

The major feature incorporated into the new core standard is High Data Throughput (HDT), which can enable lossless wireless audio and improved multi-channel spatial audio on more Bluetooth devices.

ZDNET’s key takeawaysApple just removed the waitlist for Siri AI on iOS 27.

Siri AI is Apple’s upgraded virtual assistant, now powered by generative AI.

iOS 27 delivered Siri AI in beta this fall, along with iPadOS 27, MacOS 27 Golden Gate, VisionOS 27, and WatchOS 27.

You need a compatible iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, or Apple Vision Pro to use Apple Intelligence features like Siri AI.

Not all Apple devices that support the latest iOS 27 (or other OS 27) will support Siri AI.

Linux Mint, my favorite Linux desktop distribution, is ready for a fresh start.

So it is that the next release, Linux Mint 27, will appear in your Christmas stocking.

We’re taking on projects and implementing changes which would previously have been considered too large or ambitious.”Why Mint 27 rather than Mint 24?

Mint is also moving from Ubiquity to the Linux Mint Debian Edition live installer for installing the operating system.

Also: Linux Mint vs. Zorin OS: I’ve tried both Windows alternatives, and here’s my winnerFor the Linux kernel, Mint 27 will use version 7.0.

ZDNET’s key takeawaysAn X post shows a new search menu in Chrome.

The new menu enables navigation of nesting options within the browser’s settings.

I’m a longtime Chrome user, but I’ve never been a fan of the browser’s user settings menu, which has grown into a dense collection of nesting submenus that can be difficult to navigate.

The posts show the search bar pinned to the top of the settings menu for instant access.

There’s no official word yet on when these features will leave Canary’s testing environment and become available in the regular Chrome menu.

Voters ask chatbots for basic election information and candidate recommendations.

I found 9 Google Search alternativesWhat voters asked chatbotsThe researchers asked nearly 2,500 people in 35 states with Senate races to query ChatGPT, Claude, Grok, or Gemini about the election.

Most users asked chatbots for basic facts about the election, including who was on the ballot.

That’s a broad umbrella that can include election information — but Pew also found that only 8% of US adults reported using chatbots to find election-related information in this year’s election.

Why this study mattersWhile some studies test how AI chatbots respond to election questions by using standardized questions, this …

Only about 2,000 experienced senior AI deployment leaders exist in the US market.

Enterprises need “elite” forward deployment engineers to better gauge AI ROI growth.

Enterprises now pay “elite” AI deployment engineers between $586,000 and $1.45 million annually in total compensation, with senior leaders in the field earning up to $2.25 million, according to the report.

Not enough senior AI engineers to meet demandThe report noted that the staggering salary range includes base salary, bonus, and annualized equity.

Experienced deployment engineers may be recruited directly or promoted into the work under titles such as staff software engineer or principal AI engineer,” the study said.

Vertical tabs, adaptive dark mode, and deeper Siri AI integration are on the way to the public, but are first in beta for testing.

Adaptive dark mode will allow for any website to be viewed in dark mode, even if the site doesn’t support it.

Finally, vertical tabs are pretty straightforward, enabling vertical navigation and drag-and-drop tab reorganization.

According to the post, 40% of web page loads are from dark mode users, but only 10% of web pages natively support it.

Vertical tabs for the winVertical browser tabs aren’t a new concept, but they’ll soon be new to Safari.

AI Discover will be a new tab in the Netflix app, located at the top of your TV screen.

The streaming giant just announced a new AI feature for the TV app called AI Discover, which will help users find titles that match their moods and interests.

Also: Roku is taking away a fan-favorite screensaverThe AI Discover tab will be centered around themes.

More from ZDNETOther AI in streamingMost streaming apps already rely quite heavily on machine learning and AI algorithms to offer user recommendations, even if they’re not marketed as AI features.

Other platforms offer generative AI and features more similar to Netflix’s AI Discover.

ZDNET’S key takeaways:The iPhone Duo is unlikely to make it under many Christmas trees in 2026.

Apple told investors that the company cannot predict when iPhone Duo supply and demand “will be in balance.”Demand for one rival foldable has increased since Duo’s launch.

Also: iPhone Duo shortage watch: Changing wait times, buying limits, launch-day oddsLast month, the iPhone Duo (Apple’s priciest smartphone to date) sold out shortly after its official launch on Oct. 23.

Also: Want an iPhone Duo before 2027?

Try thisSo, Santa may not be able to deliver the iPhone Duo this year, but Samsung’s foldables may make it onto Christmas lists across the globe instead.

The Pentagon has conditionally approved a $250 million loan to help 6K scale up its microwave-plasma battery material manufacturing process.

A few months after DOJ investigators were probing the deal, Fox just completed its $22B acquisition of the streaming giant Roku.

AI usage keeps climbing, but spending has stalled. Price cuts and smarter cost controls among the biggest spenders could challenge investor assumptions about AI hypergrowth.

An anonymous reader quotes a report from Scientific American: The Great Pacific Garbage Patch, an area in the Pacific Ocean where debris naturally accumulates, is full of tiny bits of plastic -- so full, in fact, that it seems to be changing the color of the ocean. [...] To better understand how microplastics may have influenced the ocean's color, [Daniel Koestner, a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Bergen in Norway] and his colleagues looked at 20 years of satellite data from the spot in the ocean with perhaps the most of plastic -- the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, a zone between Hawaii and California where trash trapped by ocean currents accumulates. Between 2002 and 2022, the res…

"OpenAI has published a new National Community Compact and Compute Campus Policy Blueprint, apparently in response to the Blue Wave Midterm Elections," writes ancient Slashdot reader Gilmoure. "Instead of moving into communities like a juggernaut, they say they will be dangling friendly carrots going forward." Here's an excerpt from OpenAI's article: Every future compute campus OpenAI owns and operates will have its own local compact. We'll engage residents early enough to ensure their input shapes project plans, give them a local point of contact throughout the life of the campus, and report publicly each year on how we're doing. Each compact will reflect local priorities and include a com…

A newly disclosed OpenSSH flaw dubbed "*sshole" can allow attackers to log in to password-disabled accounts on certain musl-based Linux systems simply by submitting a password longer than 256 bytes. "Apparently certain varieties of musl Linux (Alpine, OpenWrt, Buildroot, Yocto, etc.) have had this OpenSSH vulnerability for about a decade," writes longtime Slashdot reader AlteredEgg. "Upgrade now!" BleepingComputer reports: Security researcher Ozgun Kultekin, who discovered and released details on the vulnerability today, says the flaw has existed since 2016 and stems from how OpenSSH handles password verification errors on systems using the musl C library. Linux accounts can be configured t…

According to Bloomberg, Apple is cutting employee AI spending limits to reduce costs, lowering some engineers from $300 to $200 per day and considering limits as low as $100, with some teams capped at $25. Employees are also being encouraged to use cheaper models or on-device AI. MacRumors reports: Engineers at Apple have the largest budgets because using AI for coding can consume a large number of tokens. Apple lets employees use Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, and other models. Some Apple employees told Bloomberg that few were using their full $300 daily limit, so the savings may be small. Apple has also hired outside productivity consultants for some divisions. Combined with the AI cost cuts, t…

Longtime Slashdot reader bbsguru shares a report from KrebsOnSecurity: Several staffers at the White House are using computers or mobile devices equipped with residential proxy services that render their internet address available for others to rent, security experts warned today. One of the proxy services is a Russian company whose founder's web hosting business was ground zero for cyberattacks against election systems in Arizona and Illinois in 2016. The security firm Layer3 Intel said it detected multiple residential proxy nodes beaconing out from the internet address network reserved for the Executive Office of the President (AS2650). Layer3 said the proxy activity was relatively persis…

Discord is replacing Electron with a desktop client built fully in Rust, which the company says should significantly reduce the app's notoriously high resource usage while improving performance and memory safety. "We've been early adopters of Rust since 2018 and a lot of our infra, voice tech, and even some of the current client is already Rust, the holy grail was getting the whole client there," explains Discord chief technology officer Stanislav Vishnevskiy in a post on X. "That means Electron goes away, and so does React Native, mobile keeps native UI but shares app code with desktop via Rust." The Verge reports: Vishnevskiy also shared an image of the Discord Windows client using just 2…

Motorola's $1,600 Signature 27 will become the company's first smartphone to support the security- and privacy-focused GrapheneOS that completely strips out native Google services and telemetry at the OS level. To help justify the price, Motorola equipped the Signature 27 with top-of-the-line specs, including a tandem OLED display, Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6, up to 16GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 512GB of UFS 4.1 storage (up from a base configuration of 12GB and 256GB), and a 200-megapixel periscope telephoto camera. According to Motorola, the EVS action sensor (telephoto camera) is the first in a smartphone, offering "new possibilities for photographing moving subjects and capture…

Заметил тут одну штуку, хочу показать.

В тексте написана корректная оценка Опуса — 66.4%, но на графике другая.<…> K3.1 Pro scores 65.7% <…> narrowly behind Claude Opus 5.5 (66.4%)

У кими вышла новая модель, как обычно с графиками. В целом графики достаточно честные, кроме одного момента. Но одну вещь я заметил, никогда на такое не обращал внимание.

Числа на графике такие: Кими — 65,7%, Опус — 64,85%, чуть хуже: Но если посмотреть, то Опус кажется более плохим, и дело не в масштабе не от нуля, который растягивает масштаб. Мне кажется, дело в подписи. Кими подписан сверху, а Опус сбоку, из-за этого Кими дополнительно вытягивается вверху и это проецируется и само значение.

Максим, привет!

В вакансиях часто указывают, что ожидают от кандидата кейсы работы, схожей с той, которой предстоит заниматься. И бывает, что кандидат отлично подходит по навыкам и хорошо разбирается в перечисленных задачах, но только в теории. В таких случаях логично отправить демо-кейсы вида «Вот как бы я переделал это и это», которые покажут, как кандидат умеет применять свои знания.

Как считаешь, какой контент лучше подойдёт для такой задачи — тот, что уже есть у работодателя, или его конкурента? И каков риск, что работодатель воспримет демо-кейсы со своим контентом как заявление «Ваши текст — говно, я могу лучше»?

Я разрабатываю транспортную схему Астаны и не знаю как изобразить университет спорта. Подскажите, пожалуйста, как изобразить спорт в виде иконки? Не какой-то конкретный спорт, а спорт в целом как явление. Пока лучшая метафора, которую я смог найти, — это олимпийские кольца. Но МОК строго ограничивает использование этого образа.
