Interesting move, I'm wondering how far this will go. Reuse of those functions in other Wikimedia project will be critical to its success.

The Large Language Model arm race is still going strong. Models are still mostly hidden behind APIs of course, and this is likely consuming lots of energy to run. Results seem interesting though, even though I suspect they're over inflating the "safety" built in all this. Also be careful of the demo videos, they've been reported as heavily edited and misleading...

If you can't download it without DRMs you just don't own it, you're renting it. This is completely different.

Fascinating vulnerability. When the BIOS is at fault with a crappy image parser... you can't do much to prevent problems from happening.

Let's hope it won't get there... I wish people would abandon Chrome en masse. I unfortunately don't see it happening and it'll just weaken the Web.

Definitely one of the worrying aspects of reducing human labor needs for analyzing texts. Surveillance is on the brink of being increased thanks to it.

Nice ideas for decision making in larger groups.

Very cool simplified simulator. Gives a good idea of how this roughly works.

Another important software release. Let's wish luck to the new maintainers!

Alright, this is definitely a cool hack.

The Rust tooling makes it super easy to profile your programs. This is neat.

Shows why it's important to go for a blameless culture, also outside of postmortem. This is definitely not easy but worth it.

Somehow unsurprising, this is often the case: less validation code, but also less automated tests. With types you can write unwanted states out of existence.

Very nice collection of tidbits of information for the main topics in computer graphics. A good way to get started or refresh the basics.

A senator is stepping up and rightfully pointing the finger at automakers. Let's hope more will follow.

Good walkthrough the finer points of members initialization in C++. Worth keeping in mind.

A glimpse into how those generator models can present a real copyright problem... there should be more transparency on the training data sets.

Looks like remote work is here to stay for good now.

This is clearly an uphill battle. And yes, this is because it's broken by design, it should be opt-in and not opt-out.

Interesting approach to reduce the amount of undocumented features because we simply forgot to update the documentation. Shows a few inspiring tricks to get there.
