The Soul of a Pedicab DriverPedicabbing doesn't make me a better person.

By trying to become a better person, however, I am becoming a better pedicab chauffeur.

There's got to be a better way to handle things like this, I thought.

By the time Knut Einar and I talked, I had already begun modifying my modus operandi as a pedicab chauffeur.

Because Charles can pedicab longer with less psychological pressure, I may even be making more money since adjusting my behavior.

Essex police have paused the use of live facial recognition (LFR) technology after a study found cameras were significantly more likely to target black people than people of other ethnicities.

The ICO said Essex police had paused LFR deployments “after identifying potential accuracy and bias risks” and warned other forces to have mitigations in place.

In January, the home secretary, Shabana Mahmood, announced the number of LFR vans would increase five-fold, with 50 available to every police force in England and Wales.

[2]Given the sensitive nature of the defendant’s AI searches regarding available legal strategies, the defendant’s counsel attempted to assert privilege over the defendant’s AI communications.

The government, in turn, moved for a ruling that the defendant’s AI communications were not protected by either the attorney-client privilege or the work product doctrine.

Work Product DoctrineThe court also held that the work product doctrine did not apply to the defendant’s communications with AI.

Credit: NASAIn an analysis of nearly three decades of solar acoustic data, NJIT physicists report evidence that the solar dynamo — the magnetic engine powering the Sun’s 11-year cycles and eruptive events — operates nearly 200,000 kilometers beneath the Sun’s surface.

Every eleven years, the Sun’s magnetic field flips.

Across the tachocline, the Sun’s rotation changes abruptly, generating powerful shearing flows capable of powering the Sun’s magnetic fields.

“Rotation bands originating from magnetic structural changes near the Sun's tachocline can take several years to propagate to the surface,” Mandal said.

These internal flows are linked to the migration of sunspots seen during the solar …

It's 2026 and I've got two more Azure Entra ID sign-in log bypasses to share with you.

Today I will walk you through the third and fourth Azure sign-in log bypasses that I have found in the last three years.

Detecting Sign-In Log Bypasses - A Futureproof SolutionFour sign-in log bypasses in the last three years, for what is arguably the most important log of all of Azure.

Any Session IDs that only show up in the Graph Activity logs, and don't exist in any sign-in logs, must have bypassed the sign-in logs.

This is the Azure Entra ID sign-in log, arguably the most important log in all of Azure.

# Background and the problems with X11If you're already familiar with X11 and Wayland feel free to skip to the next part.

Wayland (in theory) replaces the display server, as well as some parts of the compositor and desktop environment with a simpler display protocol and reference implementation.

The original conceit behind Wayland is to only implement what is needed for a simple Linux desktop.

# Wayland isn't just "one thing" (because Wayland doesn't do anything)One rebuttal I've heard is that it's not an issue with Wayland, it's an issue with the compositor/extension/application.

Fifty years ago this month, March 1976, at 20 years old, is when my interest in type design began.

Me, in spring of 1976, about the time I discovered type design, standing outside the art department at NHCC.

At first I was thinking of pursuing a career as an illustrator, but I was also interested in graphic design.

(Photo by Dan Bagaus)What sparked my interest in type design was a project in the advanced lettering class.

And learning that it was possible to design type professionally was a revelation.

The findings, published in the journal Addiction, also showed that participants who didn’t receive the direct marketing reported 67% fewer short-term gambling harms, such as feeling less distressed by their gambling, than those who were exposed to the messaging.

Co-author Dr Philip Newall, Senior Lecturer in Psychology at the University of Bristol, said: “The research is important as it’s the first to show a causal link between exposure to gambling marketing and increased gambling harms in a real-world setting.

“Although the findings relate to direct marketing, I see no reason why the same or similar adverse effects wouldn’t occur for gambling advertising on TV or social media.”The study, f…

We are happy to announce the general availability of Fedora Asahi Remix 43.

Fedora Asahi Remix is developed in close collaboration with the Fedora Asahi SIG and the Asahi Linux project.

Fedora Asahi Remix also provides a Fedora Server variant for server workloads and other types of headless deployments.

You can install Fedora Asahi Remix today by following our installation guide.

Existing systems running Fedora Asahi Remix 41 or 42 should be updated following the usual Fedora upgrade process.

One of them was from a client - a sharp person, but not a tech expert - forwarding a message from one of their "digital marketplaces".

Completely unprompted, I received something unexpected in reply: a guide on how to configure Apache to do what they wanted.

For my client, though, it's a real problem - an intelligent person who understood the situation, but still a problem to solve.

It doesn't grow, doesn't listen, doesn't update its mental model based on what you write back - and above all, it doesn't know what it doesn't know.

I'm fairly confident the decisions would be considerably better - and humans would end up exactly where they should be.

And I wanted to take a stab at it by using the infrastructure designed for ordered, real-time, durable data streams, so I built a full video conferencing app on S2 streams.

Consumers can read streams live as new records arrive or replay history from any earlier position.

For live viewing, each participant reads each remote media stream from the current tail, following new records as they arrive.

If you don't care about saving the video, you can just set the retention policy on the streams to be short, e.g.

Every feature that I thought of could be simply mapped as a read or write on S2's durable streams.

Rob Pike's 5 Rules of ProgrammingRule 1.

Fancy algorithms are slow when n is small, and n is usually small.

Use simple algorithms as well as simple data structures.

Data structures, not algorithms, are central to programming.

ZDNET's key takeawaysThere's a trade-off between convenience and privacy, but you can reduce online tracking.

These extensions, often available for free or for a small donation, will identify and block tracking cookies, scripts, and headers from collecting your data.

To avoid either scenario, I've been testing TwelveSouth's latest Bluetooth adapter, the AirFly Pro 2.

The most reasonable explanation for the evolution of color in our consumer tech is the prevalence of technology.

Later in the article, it states that "China's decades-long push into clean energy technology is now helping to protect it from the soaring oil and gas crisis spurred by Trump's war against Iran," and that "Chinese exports of solar equipment to Cuba skyrocketed from about $5 million in 2023 to $117 million in 2025 and show no sign of stopping." According to researchers from Ember, solar could be responsible for as much as 10% of Cuba's electricity generation. "…

An anonymous reader quotes a report from The Register: A lobbying trade body for smaller cloud providers is asking the European Commission to impose interim measures blocking Broadcom from terminating the VMware Cloud Service Provider program, calling the decision a death sentence for some tech suppliers and an illegal squeeze on customer choice.

The Cloud Infrastructure Service Provider in Europe (CISPE) trade group, representing nearly 50 tech suppliers, filed the complaint today with the EC D…

Cloudflare's CEO predicts AI-driven bot traffic will surpass human internet traffic by 2027, as AI agents generate vastly more web requests than people. "If a human were doing a task -- let's say you were shopping for a digital camera -- and you might go to five websites. Your agent or the bot that's doing that will often go to 1,000 times the number of sites that an actual human would visit," Cloudflare CEO Matthew Prince said in an interview at SXSW this week. "So it might go to 5,000 sites. And that's real traffic, and that's real load, which everyone is having to deal with and take into account." TechCrunch reports: Before the generative AI era, the internet was only about 20% bot traff…

The UK regulator Ofcom fined 4chan nearly $700,000 (520,000 pounds) for failing to implement age checks and address illegal content risks under the Online Safety Act, but the platform mocked the penalty and signaled it won't pay. A lawyer representing the company responded with an AI-generated cartoon image of a hamster, writing in a follow-up post on X: "In the only country in which 4chan operates, the United States, it is breaking no law and indeed its conduct is expressly protected by the First Amendment." The BBC reports: The fines also include 50,000 pounds for failing to assess the risk of illegal material being published and a further 20,000 pounds for failing to set out how it prote…

For the second time in the past month, an AI agent went rogue at Meta -- this time giving an engineer incorrect advice that briefly exposed sensitive data. The Verge reports: A Meta engineer was using an internal AI agent, which Clayton described as "similar in nature to OpenClaw within a secure development environment," to analyze a technical question another employee posted on an internal company forum. But the agent also independently publicly replied to the question after analyzing it, without getting approval first. The reply was only meant to be shown to the employee who requested it, not posted publicly. An employee then acted on the AI's advice, which "provided inaccurate informatio…

An anonymous reader quotes a report from Ars Technica: Google is planning big changes for Android in 2026 aimed at combating malware across the entire device ecosystem. Starting in September, Google will begin restricting application sideloading with its developer verification program, but not everyone is on board. Android Ecosystem President Sameer Samat tells Ars that the company has been listening to feedback, and the result is the newly unveiled advanced flow, which will allow power users to skip app verification. With its new limits on sideloading, Android phones will only install apps that come from verified developers. To verify, devs releasing apps outside of Google Play will have t…

Meta is partially reversing its decision to drop VR support for Horizon Worlds, keeping VR access for existing Unity-based games while shifting future development to a new flatscreen-focused Horizon Engine. UploadVR reports: If you somehow missed it, on Tuesday Meta officially announced that its Horizon Worlds "metaverse" platform would drop VR support in June, meaning it would only be available as a flatscreen experience for the web and smartphones. But now, in an "ask me anything" session on his Instagram page, Meta CTO Andrew Bosworth says the company has decided to "keep Horizon Worlds working in VR for existing games to support the fans who've reached out." Bosworth says this specifica…

OpenAI announced it's acquiring developer tooling startup Astral to strengthen its Codex AI coding assistant, which has over 2 million weekly users and has seen a three-fold increase in user growth since the start of the year. CNBC reports: "Through it all, though, our goal remains the same: to make programming more productive. To build tools that radically change what it feels like to build software," Astral's founder and CEO Charlie Marsh wrote in a blog post. The company's acquisition of Astral is still subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approval. Read more of this story at Slashdot.

Walmart has secured patents for systems that use machine learning to forecast demand and automate pricing decisions, "pushing the U.S. retail behemoth into a debate over the use of algorithms to adjust product costs," reports the Financial Times. From the report: In January Walmart obtained a U.S. patent for a "system and method for dynamically and automatically updating item prices" to carry out markdowns in its ecommerce unit, a rapidly growing division that generated more than $150 billion in sales last year. Last week it received another patent for using machine learning to predict demand and recommend prices for goods. [...] Walmart said that both patents were "unrelated to dynamic pri…

An anonymous reader quotes a report from Reuters: Microsoft is considering legal action against its partner OpenAI and Amazon over a $50 billion deal that could violate its exclusive cloud agreement with the ChatGPT maker, the Financial Times reported on Wednesday. Last month, Amazon and OpenAI signed several agreements, including one that makes Amazon Web Services the exclusive third-party cloud provider for Frontier, OpenAI's enterprise platform for building and running AI agents. The dispute centers on whether OpenAI can offer Frontier via AWS without violating the Microsoft partnership, which requires the startup's models to be accessed through the Windows maker's Azure cloud platform, …

BrianFagioli writes: A new iOS exploit chain called DarkSword shows how attackers can break into certain iPhones, grab sensitive data like messages, credentials, and even crypto wallets, and then disappear without leaving obvious traces. It targets older iOS 18 builds using Safari and WebGPU flaws to escape Apple's sandbox, which is pretty wild on its own, but what really stands out is how fast it works and how financially motivated these attacks have become. The takeaway is simple but important, update your iPhone ASAP and don't assume mobile devices are somehow safer than desktops anymore. Read more of this story at Slashdot.

Trevor Milton, the pardoned founder of Nikola, is seeking $1 billion for AI-powered autonomous planes through a new venture called SyberJet. The Tech Buzz reports: "Autonomous planes will be 10 times harder than Nikola ever was," Milton told the Wall Street Journal in a rare interview. It's a remarkable admission from someone whose last venture collapsed under the weight of securities fraud charges after he overstated the capabilities of Nikola's electric and hydrogen-powered trucks. Milton was convicted in 2022 on three counts of fraud for misleading investors about Nikola's technology, including staging a video that made it appear a truck prototype was driving under its own power when it …

lines with a regex to get the results I want.Long ago I wrote my own ad-hoc function to include a

had become baroque and confusing. Worse, it still didn’t do all the things I

Two testing-related things I found recently.Unified exception testingKacper Borucki blogged about parameterizing exception

testing, and linked to pytest docs and a

StackOverflow answer with similar approaches.The common way to test exceptions is to use

pytest.raises as a context manager, and have

separate tests for the cases that succeed and those that fail. Instead, this

approach lets you unify them.I tweaked it to this, which I think reads nicely:from contextlib import nullcontext as produces import pytest

from pytest import raises @pytest.mark.parametrize( "example_input, result", [ (3, produces(2)), (2, produces(3)), (1, produces(6)), (0, raises(ZeroDivisionError)), ("Hello", raises(Typ…

AI might replace all of the jobs; that's only a problem if you think that humans will care, but if they care, they will create new jobs.

This morning I shared a link to this site, and the recipient said, “it looks

like a file.” I thought they meant the page was all black and white with no

color. No, they were talking about the URL, which ended with “.html”.This site started almost 24 years ago as

a static site: a pile of .html files created on my machine and uploaded to the

server. The URLs naturally had .html extensions. It was common in web sites of

the time.Over the years, the technology has changed. In 2008, it was still a static

site on the host, but produced with

Django running locally. In 2021, it became a

real Django site on the host.Through all these changes, the URLs remained the same—they still had

[0] and [False]. These are equal but hash differently because the

Netflix is driving the Hollywood end game, likely confident it can increase the value of IP, and fend off YouTube.

Осознал недавно, чем вайб-кодинг в его классическом виде похож на лудоманию и при чем тут дофамин

Что за вайб-кодинг такой

Давайте сначала начнем с определений. Не каждая разработка с ллмкой — вайб-кодинг, но каждый вайб-кодинг — разработка с помощью ллмки.

Вайб-кодингом я буду называть программирование с помощью ллмки, в котором есть вот такие характеристики: Мало изначального планирования. Буквально короткое описание, вкинутое в ллмку и потом разберемся походу.

Попытка сразу попасть в нужную конечную точку. Желательно за одну итерацию.

Значительная часть кода написана ллмкой. Человек в целом не читает весь код, не проверяет его, только смотрит на результат. Архитектура придумана тоже ллмк…

OpenAI and Nvidia are both under threat from Google; I like OpenAI's chances best, but they need an advertising model to beat Google as an Aggregator.
