Young adults in Japan are having less and less sex, according to a recent review – and we don’t know why.

Online surveys from the 2020s indicate that around half of Japanese adults aged 20–49 are sexually inactive, meaning they haven’t had sex in the past year.

In comparison, just over one in three Japanese adults aged 20–24 reported being sexually inexperienced in 2002.

At least, these are the conclusions of a review of Japanese sexual attitudes and behaviours, published in The Journal of Sex Research.

In high-income countries all over the world, young adults seem to be having less and less sex.

Insider trading is illegal in the stock market for a simple reason: it works too well.

To analysts and headlines, Nokia was still the giant of the industry and the iPhone was just a new entrant.

In other words, they were holding exactly what an insider trader holds: information the market doesn't have yet (that “Nokia is screwed!”).

Say there’s an initiative at your company that’s doing very well.

Check whether leadership personally uses AI — not sponsors it, actually uses it, on their own work.

All of that, plus user complaints, has led the maintainers of the Gentoo Chromium package to give up on trying to maintain the package.

Chromium package maintainer Sam James declared last rites for the Chromium package on September 24, after a lengthy conversation in a bug report filed by Roman Žilka.

James replied that none of the maintainers have had a chance to look into the problems with the Chromium package yet.

James added that someone could still pick up the Chromium package before the end of the last-rites period on October 24, or that the package could be restored in the future.

Other distributions continue to supply Chromium packages, of course, though their approach does not prov…

Sharon Yang is a Chromium developer who worked at Google on the browser and now works on it at Igalia.

While she was a student, she did an internship at Google, working on the Chrome browser, which is the Google product based on Chromium.

ContrastsShe contrasted the two companies, starting with the number of employees: Google has around 180,000, while Igalia has around 180.

There are various teams, such as the Chromium team that she is on, a Linux kernel team, and more.

Other clients want customized browsers for internal use, so parts of the Igalia Chromium team are also working on downstream projects.

The Deno runtime winds down over the next year, JSR keeps running on Cloudflare's infrastructure, & the team's new job, per Cloudflare's post, is merging Deno's celld into workerd.

In reality, the ecosystem has gotten the benefits Deno was pushing, just not from Deno itself.

About six weeks later, Deno published "Big Changes Ahead for Deno", announcing npm: specifiers, a commitment to make 80–90% of npm packages work within three months & a new goal of being "the fastest JavaScript runtime."

Deno 2, in October 2024, finished the job with full Node & npm compatibility.

Four years after launching as the alternative to Node's ecosystem, Deno had become another way to run it.

The sanctions freeze any Cryptomus assets at U.K. banks, and bar British companies from offering it any business, virtual or otherwise.

The blockchain data-crunching firm Chainalysis said the U.K. sanctions target the broader infrastructure supporting Russia’s wartime economy.

“Cryptomus and Heleket have emerged as major payment hubs for illicit activity,” Chainalysis wrote in an October 8 blog post.

Sanders said the U.K. sanctions on Cryptomus are important because Canada’s sanctions against the platform were ultimately unenforceable and uncollectible.

“A fine doesn’t stop a cryptocurrency payment processor from processing payments,” Sanders wrote on LinkedIn.

The world is broken, so find a way out, a dangerous stupid social response to the systemic social and ecological crisis.

There is no technological #dotcons platform that allows us to escape social relationships.

We need to balance this commons sense urge, with working collectives to create social relationships and grow ways of looking after each other.

We need to build projects like the #OMN based on local relationships + open networks = distributed resilience.

We don’t have to wait for another world, we can start building the means for it here.

Newsrooms across the country are rushing to embrace AI and replace actual writers, public opinion be damned.

Guest op-eds in all of the major newspapers have been found to be either partly or wholly written by AI.

AI is great for them, because it can produce “content” at a fraction of the expense that a writer costs.

Game studios are now designing their worlds and levels using “art assets generated with full AI workflows.” As Brian Merchant reported earlier this year:Opportunities and pay rates declining as clients and employers embrace generative AI.

This is especially galling given that all of the AI models that are being used to replace artists were trained through the mass theft of thos…

We also signed the White House Accord on Super Intelligence, in which companies pledged to partner with independent external auditors or evaluators.

Why we work with independent evaluatorsAs models have become more powerful, they’ve required stronger safeguards and more challenging risk assessments.

To evaluate frontier models, evaluators need the following:Expertise in assessing the capabilities of frontier models, including understanding the way evaluations can go wrong, such as alignment faking.

Beyond access to the latest models, evaluators also need visibility into how those models were trained, about how our safeguards function, and more.

In response to yesterday’s post about Anthropic’s Scion ripping off Mononoke, I received a number of questions and concerns.

It goes much deeper than that, and extends to the entire data model, as well as a number of the structures built around it.

It is quite rare for skip levels to get pulled in to discuss a system’s data model in depth.

Given the overlap in personnel, there is no reasonable way the Scion team could not have known about this.

It is shocking to me that Anthropic didn’t just say they copied Mononoke and rebuilt it in 5 months.

2 to 7x lighter, where it counts Images, scans, PDFs, web & YouTubeA scan, a screenshot, a scanned PDF or a web page carries a lot your AI pays to read but never uses: pixels, layout, markup.

Converted to text, the same content can run roughly 2 to 7x lighter on tokens, and the model reads what matters.

YouTube links come in as clean transcripts, ready to summarize or search.

The gain is largest on visual and web content; exact figures vary with each file.

So naturally, I decided to ask Jev and its ilk to decide the Trolley Problem.

The Trolley Problem, brieflyThe Trolley Problem is a famous thought experiment in ethics.

I asked each of them the Trolley Problem many times, and in many ways.

Handlers can be nested to handle multiple effects but care needs to be taken to manage the same state between multiple handlers.

For example we might want to test a library with the Get and Increase effects.

let run = handle State ((update, resume, state) -> { let state = update (state) resume (state)(state) }, (_) -> { // These handlers translate operations; they do not hold separate state.

let value = handle Increase ((amount, resume) -> { let _ = perform State ((state) -> { !int_add (state, amount) }) resume ({}) }, (_) -> { handle Get ((_, resume) -> { let state = perform State ((state) -> { state }) resume (state) }, f) }) let finish = (state) -> { {state, value} } finish }) run (initi…

The operating system is Incus OS, a small immutable system that only run Incus, a manager for system containers and virtual machines (it is like Proxmox but more container oriented).

Incus OS official websiteOn top of it, there are about twenty Ubuntu system containers, one per service, and two virtual machines for the more sensitive parts.

So there are two levels of containers: Incus instances, and podman containers inside them.

Incus OS §Incus OS is the foundation, I chose it because it is locked as much as possible.

And a rebuild of the public caddy or haproxy cuts the public traffic for a minute or two.

You are seeing this because the administrator of this website has set up Anubis to protect the server against the scourge of AI companies aggressively scraping websites.

This can and does cause downtime for the websites, which makes their resources inaccessible for everyone.

Anubis uses a Proof-of-Work scheme in the vein of Hashcash, a proposed proof-of-work scheme for reducing email spam.

The idea is that at individual scales the additional load is ignorable, but at mass scraper levels it adds up and makes scraping much more expensive.

Please note that Anubis requires the use of modern JavaScript features that plugins like JShelter will disable.

The WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN symbol was introduced in the Windows 95 time frame as a way to exclude a bunch of Windows header files when you include windows.h .

You can take a look at your windows.h file to see which ones they are.

The symbol was added as part of the transition from 16-bit Windows to 32-bit Windows.

The 16-bit windows.h header file didn’t include all of those header files, and defining WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN brought you back to the 16-bit Windows philosophy of a minimal set of header files for writing a bare-bones Windows program.

Moore’s Law and precompiled headers have conspired to render the WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN symbol relative useless.

The field began with the first approach and fell back to the second because neural networks seemed to be tangled knots.

Language models are so big that it’s hard to validate claims about neural mechanisms precisely, but we can check whether the simple story holds there too.

Across thousands I’ve seen in image models and language models, they’re highly readable and ablate the way you’d generally expect.

When I say neural networks are already clean, I mean something deeper than neuron monosemanticity, although even by that standard, I think things look much better than the field expects.

How Amazon pushes up prices all across the InternetNot-Ship turns one next week!!

Where an Amazon sale goesBased on an apparel seller that opts for Amazon fulfillment, storage, returns and advertising.

The consequence is clear: We pay Amazon prices, even when we're not shopping on Amazon.

In Europe, Germany ordered Amazon to stop controlling its sellers' prices earlier this year, though the decision isn't yet final.

But if the FTC is right, you may be paying Amazon's prices anyway.

I’ll then draw a plot of different frequencies and their amplitudes as heard by the device:I recommend whistling, or singing “aaaaaa” using lower and higher voice to see different frequencies appear.

The shape and materials used in the construction of the body of an instrument strongly contribute to different sound frequencies getting amplified or absorbed.

The perceived loudness of sound very strongly depends on the sound pressure level, however, that loudness also depends on the frequency of the sound – you’ve experienced this when tinkering with the plate moving in a sinusoidal motion.

It’s also worth mentioning another quantity related to the “amount” of sound – the sound intensity…

To put it simply, the world of 1-dimensional real numbers turns into a ‘complex’ world involving pairs of reals numbers which are endowed with their own arithmetic.

Complex analysis and the use of complex numbers might seem like an abstract idea, but the reality is quite the opposite.

Without complex numbers, modern descriptions of atoms, semiconductors, lasers, and magnetic resonance imaging would be impossible.

Things to know if you get cancer (2026 Edition)I was diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma in my mouth in May 2026.

I was chatting with various models and most pushed me in the direction of “you don’t have cancer” for a while.

Look and get through this yourself to see what the options are based on how things have progressed.

This may require a lot of calling and getting on an airplane, but I’d move to schedule it at a top cancer center as soon as you are relatively sure of your diagnosis.

exhilaration suggested that if you are within a 2-3 hour drive of a major cancer center, go there instead of your local community hospital.

A third of recruiters said AI-polished resumes are the top source of stress.

Just over a third of recruiters (33%) said AI-polished resumes are now their top stressor, overtaking a lack of qualified candidates, which had long held the top spot.

In fact, 68% of recruiters use AI alongside their recruiting technology, and 66% said it has made their work easier.

For recruiters, Jao said the most important thing to note ahead of 2027 to help propel growth and reset is to find their gaps — and mind them.

This is something that’s really important for our recruiters and hiring managers to kind of adapt to and figure out.”

The Netherlands’ Tax and Customs Administration has abandoned its planned Microsoft 365 public-cloud rollout.

The Tax and Customs Administration isn’t replacing all of Microsoft Office with a single open-source suite, at least not yet.

These were criticisms of the deployment design, not claims that every Microsoft 365 configuration has identical disadvantages.

This is a more ready-to-run office suite than what I’d call a Netherlands agency’s built-from-scratch “Dutch Office” suite.

Still, while the replacement details remain foggy, Dutch tax authorities have canceled the Microsoft 365 cloud rollout in favor of an on-premises email/groupware suite, followed by a full-fledged open-source offi…

Tesla has unveiled a dramatically redesigned Roadster concept capable of performing midair flips, controlled landings, and a claimed 0-60 mph sprint in just 0.81 seconds. CarScoops reports: Tonight, Tesla debuted the new Roadster by driving it up a vertical ramp that then went horizontal. Then, it repeated the feat but drove off of the ramp and used thrusters to flip itself over and make a controlled landing on the ground. After that, it did a barrel roll over the rest of the Tesla lineup and again landed without issue on the ground. Then, it did 0-60 mph in 0.81 seconds according to Tesla. All of that sounds amazing, and indeed, watching it happen was pretty spectacular, but boy do we have…

According to the Associated Press, German police have opened a sexual harassment investigation after a robot allegedly touched a 16-year-old girl's buttocks and made thrusting motions while two young men reportedly filmed and streamed the incident. Investigators seized the robot and the suspects' phones and are trying to determine whether the movements were preprogrammed or controlled in real time. From the report: Cologne police spokesman Christoph Bermel said the two male teenagers have not been char…

An anonymous reader quotes a report from TechCrunch: Flock's founder and CEO Garrett Langley doesn't think the risks of introducing surveillance technology at scale outweigh the rewards. "If we want to live in a society where, if you commit a crime, you have a higher probability of being held accountable, we shouldn't pause progress," Langley said, speaking onstage during a panel at TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 in San Francisco on Wednesday. During the interview, the controversial founder of the surveillance maker of license plate cameras and other recording devices deflected hard questions about the criticism Flock now faces -- which has since led to canceled contracts and even layoffs.

An anonymous reader quotes a report from Ars Technica: Schools and libraries from around the U.S. pleaded with the Federal Communications Commission to drop the idea of ending E-Rate, a $2 billion-a-year program that connects students and library visitors to the Internet. FCC Chairman Brendan Carr has criticized school districts for having "experimented with a massive increase in screen time for students," and said E-Rate expanded too far beyond its original purpose of "supporting basic Internet access to schools and libraries for educational purposes." In June, Carr led a 2-1 vote to issue a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) seeking public comment on whether E-Rate should be "limited or…

Нет ни одной вещи, которую хороший инженер не смог бы сделать сложной

В какой-то момент понадобилось, чтобы он работал в том месте, где поблизости нет электричества. Хорошо, что есть большой и достаточно мощный павербанк — как раз на 65 ватт.

Frank Wiles wrote about an attack he nearly fell victim

to: a downloaded git repo had active git hooks that would have compromised

his system. Seeing the risks, I wanted to make git hooks more visible on my own

machine.A git hook is a script in the .git directory of a git repo on your machine.

They run during various git operations. The important detail to understand about

hooks is that they do not get installed locally when you clone a repo. A newly

cloned repo never has active hooks. Hooks have to be enabled after cloning,

usually by you.The attack Frank saw was dangerous because it wasn’t a cloned repo: it was a

local checkout that had hooks installed then shared as a Dropbox folder. So

Hey everyone, My side project is a YouTube channel explaining historical battles through animated maps. I’ve just finished a film about Austerlitz, showing how Napoleon used terrain and apparent weakness to draw a larger army into a trap. I built the terrain and map animations in code, including troop movements, camera sequences, and labels. The narration, music, and some illustrations use AI tools. Here’s the finished film: https://youtu.be/MUdrsTYkZNU I’m starting from zero, and honestly, I don’t know whether to keep going with this format. Are the maps easy to follow? Does the pacing hold your attention? Would you watch another battle explained this way? If you enjoy it, please leave a c…

Judgement Day is a little side project of mine (along with the other apps you will find on the site): zoom from the whole Earth into any real city, pick how it ends (nuke, meteor, black hole, an Independence Day ship, or a tornado) and watch the buildings blow apart into particles. It's free and runs in your browser. I posted it recently and people were kind enough to give me feedback. Off the back of it, cities now load a lot faster and the terrain has real elevation instead of being flat. Ive also added a new feature so you can stand and watch from any position. AND if you are on a phone, you can then hold your phone up and watch it in pseudo augmented reality. Still deciding whether the …

European AI funding in H1 2026 was characterised by a high concentration of capital in a few large transactions, alongside a broad base of smaller investments.

Several rounds exceeded €500 million, highlighting the capital-intensive nature of advanced AI research and infrastructure development.
