For better or for worse, I’m not going to discuss analog devices – these days most cameras are digital.

The image sensor of a digital camera consists of a grid of photodetectors.

The most common types of lenses are spherical lenses – their curved surfaces are sections of spheres of different radii.

In a lens this causes different wavelengths of light to focus at different offsets – the effect known as chromatic aberration.

The author explains how aberrations may cause bokeh of non uniform intensity and shows many photographs of real cameras and lenses.

What can I do?

The European Space Agency has suffered yet another security incident and, in keeping with past practice, says the impact is limited.

Meanwhile, miscreants boast that they've made off with a trove of data, including what they claim are confidential documents, credentials, and source code.

"We have initiated a forensic security analysis—currently in progress—and implemented measures to secure any potentially affected devices," the ESA added.

"All relevant stakeholders have been informed, and we will provide further updates as soon as additional information becomes available."

The Space Agency's online store was hit by attackers last year shortly before the Christmas holiday, with miscreants i…

Only the government could spend 20 years creating a national ID that no one wanted and that apparently doesn't even work as a national ID.

In a December 11 court filing, Philip Lavoie, the acting assistant special agent in charge of DHS' Mobile, Alabama, office, stated that, "REAL ID can be unreliable to confirm U.S.

And in both instances officers allegedly retrieved Venegas' Alabama-issued REAL ID from his pocket but claimed it could be fake.

Lavoie's declaration says that the agents "needed to further verify his U.S. citizenship because each state has its own REAL ID compliance laws, which may provide for the issuance of a REAL ID to an alien and therefore based on HSI Special Agent train…

The PlayStation 5’s ROM keys have allegedly been leaked, meaning anyone who can get their hands on the hex strings now has the hardware code that will allow jailbreakers to try decrypting and analyzing the console’s bootloader.

According to The Cybersec Guru, this is an unpatchable problem for Sony, because these keys cannot be changed and are burned directly in the APU.

When you turn on the PS5, its CPU runs the BootROM code that’s baked in the chip and uses the ROM keys to ensure that Bootloader is valid.

Now that the ROM keys have been leaked (and assuming they are valid), a hacker could then decrypt and study the official bootloader and potentially use that as a starting point to unders…

I believe this is the most important mystery for the web performance community to get a handle on in 2026.

In strange congruence, this mystery is partially modeled by the definition of web performance I haltingly offered four years ago in these very pages:The mission of web performance is to expand access to information and services.

We expand access by reducing latency and variance across all interactions in a user’s session to more reliably return the system to an interactive state.

I don’t know the answers to these questions, but it seems urgent for the web performance community to find out given that it seems probable that we can build a global understanding of session depths in privacy…

PrefaceInstead of just learning how to use a deep learning library, we are going to learn how to create one.

We start with a blank file and NumPy, and we don’t stop until we have a functional autograd engine and a collection of layer modules.

By the end, we will use it to train MNIST, simple CNN and simple ResNet.

There are numbers every Python programmer should know.

For example, how fast or slow is it to add an item to a list in Python?

I wanted to take a moment and write down performance numbers specifically focused on Python developers.

String Size Empty string "" 41 bytes 1-char string "a" 42 bytes 100-char string 141 bytesNumbersNumbers are surprisingly large in Python.

Narrowness of mind is something that makes me uneasy about the tech world.

2025 is the year that Chinese tech successes have really blossomed into the wider American consciousness.

It’s cases like these that make me skeptical of reasoning about China’s tech successes through financial measures or productivity ratios.

Chinese tech achievements that were apparent in 2025 were the fruits of investments made a decade ago.

One feature that unites American, Chinese, and European elites is the tendency to close ranks behind bad ideas and bad leaders.

The full-year estimate of 1.6 million vehicles would represent an 8% decline from 2024 and the second annual decline for the EV company.

The estimates are notably lower than the consensus estimates compiled by Bloomberg and FactSet, which have been declining over the past month.

The market-implied odds derived from event contracts show that most traders think Tesla deliveries will be more than 410,000 but less than 420,000 in the quarter ending December.

(Event contracts are offered through Robinhood Derivatives, LLC — probabilities referenced or sourced from KalshiEx LLC or ForecastEx LLC.)

Actual numbers are expected Friday.

But what made living like this difficult was that my social life had also ground to a halt.

I think the cause of this social collapse was down to a few different factors.

After all, I’ve lucked my way into an extremely pleasant life of no dependents and few commitments, so what could possibly be wrong?

It has had spillover benefits too – my social calendar is now much busier, as staying connected with people, in person, has enriched my social connections more broadly.

I wrote about this because I suspect I’m not the only person who has experienced a collapse in social connections.

The data corruption described here was probably a result of the dreaded Undefined Behavior.

Conventionally, the way we teach and reason about Undefined Behavior avoids thinking too hard about exactly what the consequences will be.

Alternatively, we could wrap the whole thing in a sandbox at runtime, to at least restrict the scope of what problems the undefined behavior could cause.

Therefore, in domains where robustness is absolutely critical, we need to acknowledge as a community that “abstinence-only undefined behavior education” is not enough.

(I want to emphasize that when I say “undefined behavior” here, I don’t only mean at the language level.

[2]The list of major portable languages that target those key durable metrics is very short: C, C++, and Rust.

The data in 2025: Programming keeps growing by leaps and bounds, and C++ and Rust are growing fastestProgramming is a hot market, and programmers are in long-term high-growth demand.

First, the industry’s security problem is mostly not about programming language insecurity.

Second, for the subset that is about programming language insecurity, the problem child is C, not C++.

This isn’t new; compiling C code as C++ and having the C code be more correct has been true since the 1980s.

Both of these are fundamental problems with how so-called “single-entry bookkeeping” works: each account’s transactions and balance are tracked individually but without the context of the “whole”.

Assets are stuff you own; these can be real accounts (bank account, savings, stocks, bonds) or conceptual accounts (money in transit between accounts).

Chapter 2: Getting StartedThe best way to learn plain-text accounting is to roll up your sleeves and try it out.

The acceptance criteria is that people can run services in a way that even users with root on the machine could not read secrets, manipulate binaries, etc.

Brie is a rich, buttery, creamy cheese that always makes a cheese board just a little more enticing.

Then I discovered that, like my Parmigiano cheese rinds , I could actually turn brie into quick, microwavable crisps for an easy snack or last-minute appetizer.

How To Make Brie CrispsBrie crisps are so simple and quick to make.

PHOTO: FRANCESCA ZANITips For Brie CrispsYou can’t use just any brie: When I was researching how to make brie crisps, it was pretty unclear on what type of brie to use.

With the right type of brie, you'll have these fun, crunchy snacks ready to go in just minutes!

A SOLID Load of Bull“SOLID” is an acronym devised by the famous advocate Robert C. Martin, to popularise what is now known as the SOLID principles.

}; struct foo f ; foo f uint32_t * a = & f + 0 ; // No change uint16_t * b = & f + 8 ; // It was 4!!

Modern languages, such as 37 year old ANSI C, take care of offsets for us, and we can now write this (before modification):struct foo { foo uint32_t a ; // Don't care about the offset uint16_t b ; // Don't care about the offset uint16_t c ; // Don't care about the offset }; struct foo f ; foo f uint32_t * a = & f . a ; uint16_t * b = & f . b ; uint16_t * c = & f . c ;And that (after modification):struct foo { foo uint32_t a ; float x ; // New…

Readings in Database Systems (commonly known as the "Red Book") has offered readers an opinionated take on both classic and cutting-edge research in the field of data management since 1988.

Here, we present the Fifth Edition of the Red Book — the first in over ten years.

He followed all weather patterns and forecasts, a remnant of his childhood in the countryside and his life on the move.

The idea for FediMeteo started almost by chance while I was checking the holiday weather forecast to plan an outing.

Suddenly, I thought how nice it would be to receive regular weather updates for my city directly in my timeline.

The idea was to separate instances by country, and FreeBSD jails are one of the most useful tools for this purpose.

So I decided to structure everything in this way:I would use a test VPS to see how things would go.

Before Swift's concurrency system, you'd express this waiting with callbacks, delegates, or Combine.

let ( data , _ ) = try await URLSession .

self , from : data ) } let user = try await fetchUser ( id : 123 )Your code pauses at each await - this is called suspension.

You could await them one by one:let avatar = try await fetchImage ( "avatar.jpg" ) let banner = try await fetchImage ( "banner.jpg" ) let bio = try await fetchBio ( )But that's slow - each waits for the previous one to finish.

Use async let to run them in parallel:func loadProfile ( ) async throws -> Profile { async let avatar = fetchImage ( "avatar.jpg" ) async let banner = fetchImage ( "banner.jpg" ) async let bio = fetchBio…

Worktrunk is a CLI for git worktree management, designed for running AI agents in parallel.

But the git worktree UX is clunky.

Even a task as small as starting a new worktree requires typing the branch name three times: git worktree add -b feat ../repo.feat , then cd ../repo.feat .

Worktrunk makes git worktrees as easy as branchesEach worktree has exactly one branch, so Worktrunk uses branch names to address worktrees.

The bookshelf project is where I clearly understood what my role becomes once execution stops being the bottleneck.

Partial data felt worse than no data at all, so every attempt ended the same way: a few entries filled in, followed by abandonment.

One afternoon, I photographed every book I own: spines, covers, duplicates, and the occasional blurry thumb.

Claude wrote the script and ran it.

Claude wrote a second pass, another model call that scored cover quality and flagged bad matches.

I’ve lived through several cycles of technology that, at the time, was hailed as the “end of computer programmers”.

WYSIWYG, drag-and-drop editors like Visual Basic and Delphi were going to end the need for programmers.

And now, Large Language Models are, I read on a daily basis, going to end the need for programmers.

Even if the technology genuinely made a positive difference for more teams, it still wouldn’t mean that we don’t need programmers anymore.

There’s no credible evidence that “AI” is replacing software developers in significant numbers.

Microsoft Surface Laptop 5G ZDNET's key takeaways The Surface Laptop 5G for business is available to enterprise customers starting at $1,499.

The Surface Laptop 5G for Business is the latest addition to Microsoft's Surface laptop family, offering a more professionally minded configuration of the Surface Laptop.

For the price, there's no reason why this laptop doesn't have an OLED, especially considering its positioning as a top-tier business laptop.

With that aside, the build on the Surface Laptop 5G is nothing short of premium.

On the Surface Laptop 5G, the 54Wh battery is slightly less robust, as the extra modem and antenna structure takes up space and requires power.

Some AI safety experts say the tech is evolving too quickly.

Safety concernsCalifornia's new law underscores -- and aims to mitigate -- some of the fears that have been weighing on the minds of AI safety experts as the technology quickly proliferates and evolves.

Puppy Linux and Linux Lite achieve this in very different ways.

I've narrowed it down to two that I believe are quite good: Puppy Linux and Linux Lite.

Unlike Puppy Linux, Linux Lite is meant to be installed (although it can be run as a live distribution).

Unlike Puppy Linux, Linux Lite is fairly customizable, thanks to the Xfce desktop environment.

If you want a lightweight, portable Linux distribution to carry around with you, go with Puppy Linux.

Also: Your favorite AI tool barely scraped by this safety review - why that's a problemThe book describes the case, which "explores the mostly unregulated and exploding AI business and the lack of training guardrails."

Balance is neededAs we reported in November, at least six in 10 companies (61%) in a PwC survey say responsible AI is actively integrated into their core operations and decision-making.

Also: 7 Linux distros you should avoid until you've mastered the command lineTo be fair, this Linux distribution isn't all that difficult; it just has an installer that doesn't exactly hold your hand.

Once you complete the installation, you'll find yourself with a Linux distribution that's built from scratch, is fully atomic, and delivers a beautiful KDE Plasma desktop.

Although you might think that an atomic distribution is an immutable one, that is not always the case.

In other words, an atomic distribution is all about ensuring that upgrades always succeed.

To effectively work with this Linux distribution, you need to understand how to partition a drive and use the command line.

Mark Thomson, a professor of experimental particle physics at the University of Cambridge, takes over as CERN's director general this week, and one of his first major decisions during his five-year tenure will be shutting down the Large Hadron Collider for an extended upgrade. The shutdown starts in June to make way for the high-luminosity LHC -- a major overhaul involving powerful new superconducting magnets that will squeeze the collider's proton beams and increase their brightness. The upgrade will raise collisions tenfold and strengthen the detectors to better capture subtle signs of new physics. The machine won't restart until Thomson's term is nearly over. Thomson is far from disconso…

Instagram head Adam Mosseri closed out 2025 by acknowledging what many have long suspected: the era of trusting photographs as accurate records of reality is over, and the platform he runs will need to fundamentally adapt to an age of "infinite synthetic content." In a slideshow posted to Instagram, Mosseri wrote that for most of his life he could safely assume photographs or videos were largely accurate captures of moments that happened, adding that this is clearly no longer the case. He predicted a shift from assuming what we see is real by default to starting with skepticism and paying attention to who is sharing something and why. Read more of this story at Slashdot.

Cutting down York Street, he glimpsed a tell-tale white electric Jaguar in one of the coveted one-hour spots, its sensors spinning. The Waymo sat there for at least 20 minutes, Grochmal said. He whipped out his cell phone and started recording. After the Waymo drove off, another one showed up within an hour and took the same spot. "This is …

An anonymous reader quotes a report from the New York Times: For a while, it seemed the notion that light drinking was good for the heart had gone by the wayside, debunked by new studies and overshadowed by warnings that alcohol causes cancer. Now the American Heart Association has revived the idea in a scientific review that is drawing intense criticism, setting off a new round of debate about alcohol consumption. The paper, which sought to summarize the latest research and was aimed at practicing cardiologists, concluded that light drinking -- one to two drinks a day -- posed no risk for coronary disease, stroke, sudden death and possibly heart failure, and may even reduce the risk of dev…

Warren Buffett is retiring as CEO of Berkshire Hathaway at age 95, ending a 55-year run that reshaped how generations of Americans think about investing.

smoothly, and I didn’t handle everything as well as I could have.It started with trying to fix issue 2064 about

conflicts between the “sysmon” measurement core and a concurrency setting.To measure your code, coverage.py needs to know what code got executed. To

know that, it collects execution events from the Python interpreter. CPython now

has two mechanisms for this: trace functions and sys.monitoring. Coverage.py

has two implementations of a trace function (in C and in Python), and an

implementation of a sys.monitoring listener. These three components are the

measurement cores, known as “ctrace”, “pytrace”, and “sysmon”…

We are in an AI Bubble: the big question is if this bubble will worth it for the physical infrastructure and coordinated innovation that result?

Last night was a Boston Python project night where I

had a good conversation with a few people that was mostly guided by questions

from a nice guy named Mark.How to write nice code in researchMark works in research and made the classic observation that research code is

often messy, and asked about how to make it nicer.I pointed out that for software engineers, the code is the product. For

research, the results are the product, so there’s a reason the code can be and

often is messier. It’s important to keep the goal in mind. I mentioned it might

not be worth it to add type annotations, detailed docstrings, or whatever else

would make the code “nice”.But the more you can make “nice” a habit, …

Decreasing transportation and communications costs increases resiliency in theory, but destroys it in practice. The only way to have resiliency is through less efficiency.

This post continues where Hobby Hilbert Simplex left

off. If you haven’t read it yet, start there. It explains the basics of Hobby

curves, Hilbert sorting and Simplex noise that I’m using.AnimationTo animate one of our drawings, instead of considering 40 lines, we’ll think

about 140 lines. The first frame of the animation will draw lines 1 through 40,

the second draws lines 2 through 41, and so on until the 100th frame is lines

100 through 140:I’ve used a single Hilbert sorter for all of the frames to remove some

jumping, but the Hobby curves still hop around. Also the animation doesn’t loop

smoothly, so there’s a giant jump from frame 100 back to frame 1.Natural cubicsHobby curves look nic…

I saw a generative art piece I liked and wanted to learn how it was made.

Starting with the artist’s Kotlin code, I dug into three new algorithms, hacked

I love how these lines separate and reunite. And the fact that I can express this idea in 3 or 4 lines of code.For me they’re lives represented by closed paths that end where they started, spending part of the journey together, separating while we go in different directions and maybe reconnecting again in the future.#CreativeCoding #algorithmicart #proceduralArt #OPENRNDR #Kotlin — aBe …

I see new learners asking about “DSA” a lot. Data Structures and Algorithms

are of course important: considered broadly, they are the two ingredients that

make up all programs. But in my opinion, “DSA” as an abstract field of study

is over-emphasized.I understand why people focus on DSA: it’s a concrete thing to learn about,

there are web sites devoted to testing you on it, and most importantly, because

job interviews often involve DSA coding questions.Before I get to other opinions, let me make clear that anything you can do to

help you get a job is a good thing to do. If grinding

leetcode will land you a position, then do it.But I hope companies hiring entry-level engineers aren’t asking …

Это приложение для голосовалок по картинкам (или видосам). Бывает, что нужно показать несколько вариантов и провести, так сказать, юикс ресерч.

Как арендовать страну, позвонить президенту, сделать пиратское радио и захватить собственный остров

Будучи ребёнком, я на эти курьёзы особенно не обращал внимания. Мама регулярно готовила бигос, но почему-то никогда так его не называла. Мы точно никогда не жили, как польская семья. До меня донеслось лишь эхо семейной истории, в которой там кто-то куда-то ехал, был сослан, работал много... Всё это было два или три поколения назад, я особо не разбирался, где-то в тайге кто-то жил, потом перестал жить, истории предков никогда не занимали моё воображение так, как будоражили его, скажем, романы Герберта Уэллса.

European fintech showed resilience in 2025, recording increased investment levels compared to 2024, powered by the rise of technologies like stablecoins, embedded finance and AI.

2025 also witnessed plenty of fintech M&A activity, while excitement is growing around potential fintech IPOs in the years ahead.

Andrew Crocombe, head of embedded banking, ClearBank, said embedded finance will represent a big opportunity for businesses in 2026.

He said: "In 2026, people will be the true AI advantage in financial services, not models or tools.

Hristo Borisov, co-founder and CEO, Payhawk, said that amid the rise in AI, “autonomous finance” will occur only in certain areas.

After a particularly spirited online conversation about whether tech media should still be covering funding rounds, I found myself reflecting on what we actually do — day in, day out — at Tech.eu.

When I do workshops about talking to the media, I often talk about the story behind the news.

Beyond funding, there’s a broader story of the people building tech, backing innovation, and questioning what comes next.

As 2025 draws to a close, here’s a look back at some of the features you may have missed this year — the ones that go beyond the headline numbers and into the substance of Europe’s tech moment.

European agritech demonstrated measured resilience and strategic maturity amid a still-cautious investment climate.

Rather than broad, hype-driven expansion, the sector showed clear signs of consolidation, technical depth, and stronger alignment with real on-farm and food-system needs.

More attention went to areas tied to efficiency and sustainability, using fewer inputs, improving animal and crop performance, and strengthening resilience to climate and cost pressures.

Indoor and controlled-environment growing continued to develop, but with a stronger focus on energy use, automation, and making the economics work.

The following are the ten largest funding rounds in the European agritech ind…

UK not "good jurisdiction" to IPOThere has been much chatter this year about whether London has lost its lustre as Europe’s fintech capital.

The market needs a variety of players and SME lending is still flat.

The firm invests broadly across sectors, from the future of compute to industrial and manufacturing applications.

“That’s where we like to help as a transatlantic fund.”Another area where Europe consistently excels is climate software, particularly in energy management and grid orchestration.

“But on the software side, it’s almost the reverse: probably eight or nine were European.”He attributes this to Europe’s more complex and heavily regulated energy markets, which create fertile ground for sophisticated software solutions.

“Orchestrating huge numbers of connected devices — smart meters, heat pumps, storage systems — to balance the grid is something European companies are particularly str…

Dawn Capital’s latest partner, Shamillah Bankiya, stopped by Equity this week to talk about the European landscape and the biggest misconceptions Americans have about the European startup world.

Europe’s startup scene is having a moment, with European unicorns multiplying and American VCs setting up shop across the pond. But while European funding dominates the early stages, late-stage capital still flows primarily from the U.S. So what does this mean for European founders, and how is the continent carving out its own identity in […]

All Thibault Launay and his wife Simi wanted nearly five years ago was to build a dream home in Portugal, where they both now live.
