VHS Robot Swaps Tapes, as Seen in Hackers Hackaday
Tape robots are typically used in places that store vast amounts of data think film studios and government archives. If youve seen the 1995 cult movie Hackers, you might remember a scene where the main character hacks into a TV station and reprograms their tape bot to load a series he wanted to watch. Its this scene that inspired [Nathan] over at [Midwest Cyberpunk] to make his own tape robot that loads VHS tapes.
[Nathan] has thousands of tapes in his collection, but the robot is not built to manage all of them. Instead, its meant to help him run his VHS streaming channel, saving him from having to physically go to his VCR every time a tape needs swapping. For that, a ten-tape storage capacity is plenty.

Organoid Intelligence: Computing on the Brain IEEE Spectrum
In parallel to recent developments in machine learning like GPT-4, a group of scientists has recently proposed the use of neural tissue itself, carefully grown to recreate the structures of the animal brain, as a computational substrate. After all, if AI is inspired by neurological systems, what better medium to do computing than an actual neurological system? Gathering developments from the fields of computer science, electrical engineering, neurobiology, electrophysiology, and pharmacology, the authors propose a new research initiative they call organoid intelligence.
OI is a collective effort to promote the use of brain organoidstiny spherical masses of brain tissue grown from stem cellsfor computation, drug research and as a model to study at a small scale how a complete brain may function. In other words, organoids provide an opportunity to better understand the brain, and OI aims to use that knowledge to develop neurobiological computational systems that learn from less data and with less energy than silicon hardware.
The development of organoids has been made possible by two bioengineering breakthroughs: induced pluripotent stem cells and 3D cell culturing techniques.
Taking the existing field of neuromorphic computing, where the structure of neurons and the connections between them are studied and mimicked in silicon architectures, OI extends the engineering analogy with the opportunity to directly program desired behaviors into the firing activity of animal brain cell cultures.
Organoids typically measure 500 microns in diameterroughly the thickness of your fingernail. As organoids develop, the researchers say, organoids constituent neurons begin to interconnect in networks and patterns of activity that mimic the structures of different brain regions. The development of the organoids field has been made possible by two bioengineering breakthroughs: induced pluripotent stem cells (IPSCs) and 3D cell culturing techniques. IPSCs are stem cellsnotably capable of developing into any cell found in an animals bodythat are created by turning an adult cell back into the stem cell. These induced stem cells are then biochemically coaxed into the specific neurons and glia needed to construct a given organoid. More recently...

AI Weapons Among Non-State Actors May be Impossible to Stop SoylentNews
Governments also have no theory on how nefarious groups might behave using the tech:
The proliferation of AI in weapon systems among non-state actors such as terrorist groups or mercenaries would be virtually impossible to stop, according to a hearing before UK Parliament.
The House of Lords' AI in Weapon Systems Committee yesterday heard how the software nature of AI models that may be used in a military context made them difficult to contain and keep out of nefarious hands.
When we talk about non-state actors that conjures images of violent extremist organizations, but it should include large multinational corporations, which are very much at the forefront of developing this technology
Speaking to the committee, James Black, assistant director of defense and security research group RAND Europe, said: "A lot of stuff is very much going to be difficult to control from a non-proliferation perspective, due to its inherent software-based nature. A lot of our export controls and non-proliferation regimes that exist are very much focused on old-school traditional hardware: it's missiles, it's engines, it's nuclear materials."
An added uncertainty was that there was no established "war game" theory of how hostile non-state actors might behave using AI-based weapons.

The Shuttle Engine Needed 3D Printing, But Hackaday
If we asked you to design a circuit to blink a flashing turn signal, you would probably reach for a cheap micro or a 555. But old cars used bimetallic strips in a thermomechanical design. Why? Because, initially, 555s and microcontrollers werent available. [Breaking Taps] has the story of NASA engineers who needed some special cooling chambers in a rocket design for the Space Shuttle. Today youd 3D print them, but in the 70s, that wasnt an option. So they used wax. You can see a video about the process, including a build of a model rocket engine, in the video below.
The issue is the creation of tiny cooling channels in the combustion chamber. You can use additional thin pipes brazed onto the engine. However, there are several disadvantages to doing this way, but early rocket engines did it anyway. Having the cooling path integrated into the system would be ideal, but without 3D printing, it seems difficult to do. But not impossible.
The technique uses wax and machined slots that will eventually become the tubes required. Then you electroplate material on top of the wax to form the outer shell of the tube. In fact, NASA used two electroplating steps: a thin copper layer to close the tube and a thicker nickel layer to provide strength. Copper survives contact with the cryogenic coolant better than nickel does, but nickel is much stronger, so the combination makes sense. Because electroplating n...

Researchers in Japan develop a new ultra-high-density sulfonic acid polymer electrolyte membrane for fuel cells Lifeboat News: The Blog
In a project commissioned by the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO), researchers at Nagoya University in Japan have developed poly(styrenesulfonic acid)-based PEMs with a high density of sulfonic acid groups.
One of the key components of environmentally friendly polymer electrolyte fuel cells is a polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM). It generates electrical energy through a reaction between hydrogen and oxygen gases. Examples of practical fuel cells include fuel cell vehicles (FCVs) and fuel cell combined heat and power (CHP) systems.
The best-known PEM is a membrane based on a perfluorosulfonic acid polymer, such as Nafion, which was developed by DuPont in the 1960s. It has a good proton conductivity of 0.1 S/cm at 7090 C under humidified conditions. Under these conditions, protons can be released from sulfonic acid groups.

Proton Expands its Private Tech Ecosystem With a Password Manager SoylentNews
The encrypted email service has more features than ever and surpassed 100 million users worldwide:
Encrypted email company Proton has announced one of the biggest new additions to its growing suite of privacy-focused apps: Proton Pass, an end-to-end encrypted password manager.
[...] To get a better perspective on Proton's recent changes and its ambitions for the future, Gizmodo sat down with Proton's CEO, Andy Yen, to discuss what the company's been up to and where it's headed in the future. Proton Pass is the most consequential new feature that Proton has released in quite some time. Currently available only as a limited beta, Pass can only be accessed by Lifetime and Visionary Proton users, and even then on an invite-only basis. That said, the company says that a general launch of the app will happen "later this year," meaning it should soon be available to all users.
"A password manager has been one of the most common requests from the Proton community ever since we first launched Proton Mail," Yen wrote in a company blog post. "Proton Pass is not just another password manager. It's perhaps the first one built by a dedicated encryption and privacy company, leading to tangible differences in security."
[...] Speaking with Gizmodo, Proton's Yen said that the growth of consumer interest in privacy services over the past several years has generated more competition in his industry but it has also helped drive business to Proton.
"Back when we started, end-to-end encryption, abbreviated E2EE, was something that spies or crazy people were usingit was barely something most people had heard about," Yen tells me. That changed in the intervening yearsas an ever-compounding slew of privacy scandals drew attention to the dangers of surveillance capitalism and government spying. Today, the average consumer is much more well versed in services like E2EE, said Yen.

AI-Powered Speaker is a Chatbot you can Actually Chat with Hackaday
AI-powered chatbots are pretty cool, but most still require you to type your question on a keyboard and read an answer from a screen. It doesnt have to be like that, of course: with a few standard tools, you can turn a chatbot into a machine that literally chats, as [Hoani Bryson] did. He decided to make a standalone voice-operated ChatGPT client that you can actually sit next to and have a conversation with.
The base of the project is a USB speaker, to which [Hoani] added a Raspberry Pi, a Teensy, a two-line LCD and a big red button. When you press the button, the Pi listens to your speech and converts it to text using the OpenAI voice transcription feature. It then sends the resulting text to ChatGPT through its API and waits for its response, which it turns into sound again through the eSpeak speech synthesizer. The LCD, driven by the Teensy, shows the current status of the machine and also provides live subtitles while the machine is talking.
To spice up the AI boxs appearance, [Hoani] also added an LED ring which shows a spectrogram of the audio being generated. This small addition really makes the thing come...

Simulations with a machine learning model predict a new phase of solid hydrogen Lifeboat News: The Blog
Hydrogen, the most abundant element in the universe, is found everywhere from the dust filling most of outer space to the cores of stars to many substances here on Earth. This would be reason enough to study hydrogen, but its individual atoms are also the simplest of any element with just one proton and one electron. For David Ceperley, a professor of physics at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, this makes hydrogen the natural starting point for formulating and testing theories of matter.
Ceperley, also a member of the Illinois Quantum Information Science and Technology Center, uses computer simulations to study how hydrogen atoms interact and combine to form different phases of matter like solids, liquids, and gases. However, a true understanding of these phenomena requires quantum mechanics, and quantum mechanical simulations are costly. To simplify the task, Ceperley and his collaborators developed a machine learning technique that allows quantum mechanical simulations to be performed with an unprecedented number of atoms. They reported in Physical Review Letters that their method found a new kind of high-pressure solid hydrogen that past theory and experiments missed.
Machine learning turned out to teach us a great deal, Ceperley said. We had been seeing signs of new behavior in our previous simulations, but we didnt trust them because we could only accommodate small numbers of atoms. With our machine learning model, we could take full advantage of the most accurate methods and see whats really going on.

Detailed Notes on Working With OpenBSD on a ThinkPad X270 SoylentNews
Theologian Dr Corey Stephan has documented his exploration of installing OpenBSD on an old ThinkPad X270. He has posted his rather thorough personal notes which cover the intial setup, such as power management, performance tweaks, Wi-Fi configuration, audio and video, tracking -current, and getting software from the ports tree. He also goes into a bit of his favored tools and workflow.
It is hard not to cherish the partnership of a slightly older ThinkPad and OpenBSD. The ThinkPad X270 and OpenBSD are both minimalist, robust, and customizable. Specifically, the ThinkPad is minimalist with regard to features, robust with regard to physical durability, and customizable with regard to hardware repairability and replaceability. OpenBSD is minimalist with regard to code, robust with regard to security, and customizable with regard to every aspect of the system. Further, since a healthy number of OpenBSD's developers long have used ThinkPads (to the point that I have read some jokes come out of members of their ranks like 'I may use any kind of laptop that I may like, as long as it is a ThinkPad'), the operating system works brilliantly on the laptop both with their stock settings.
Overall, installing and configuring OpenBSD -current on the ThinkPad X270 was the simplest minimalist installation of any operating system on any hardware that I ever have done, even simpler than Debian GNU/Linux or my beloved FreeBSD (and much simpler than a proprietary, dysfunctional operating system Windows or MacOS). Was the total setup process easier than, say, that of a GNU/Linux distribution that uses the Calamares installer and comes preconfigured with a huge array of GNU/Linux drivers? Well, no, it was not, but that is not the point. OpenBSD is secure, nimble, and customizable in an elegantly simple way that interoperates smoothly with this small ThinkPad for my mobile academic research and writing. Even in this topsy-turvy era in which other popular desktop operating systems are have many design choices for form over function, OpenBSD comes as a serious, professional product that is ready to let me focus on my work.

Python Package Index Malware Scanning It Will Never Work in Theory
With attacks via open source package repositories becoming more common, it is vital for the community to understand what counter-measures might actually work. "Scan everything" doesn't work: as this intensely practical study shows, even a one-in-ten-thousand false positive rate is too high for repository administrators, but existing tools have false positive rates many times higher than this. What seems more promising is a collaborative approach, and the authors practice what they preach by making their tools and analysis available online.
Duc-Ly Vu, Zachary Newman, and John Speed Meyers. Bad snakes: understanding and improving python package index malware scanning. In Proc. International Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE), 2023, https://www.researchgate.net/publication/363888596_Bad_Snakes_Understanding_and_Improving_Python_Package_Index_Malware_Scanning.
While attackers often distribute malware to victims via open-source, community-driven package repositories, these repositories do not currently run automated malware detection systems. In this work, we explore the security goals of the repository administrators and the requirements for deployments of such malware scanners via a case study of the Python ecosystem and PyPI repository, which includes interviews with administrators and maintainers. Further, we evaluate existing malware detection techniques for deployment in this setting by creating a benchmark dataset and comparing several existing tools, including the malware checks implemented in PyPI, Bandit4Mal, and OSSGadgets OSS Detect Backdoor.
We find that repository administrators have exacting technical demands for such malware detection tools. Specifically, they consider a false positive rate of even 0.01% to be unacceptably high, given the large number of package releases that might trigger false alerts. Measured tools have false positive rates between 15% and 97%; increasing thresholds for detection rules to reduce this rate renders the true positive rate useless. In some cases, these checks emitted alerts more often for benign packages than malicious ones. However, we also find a successful socio-technical malware detection system: external security researchers also perform repository malware scans and report the results to repository administrators. These parties face different incentives and constraints on their time and tooling. We conclude with recommendations for improving detection capabilities and strengthening the collaboration between security researchers and software repository administrators.

Tiny Three-Tube Receiver Completes Spy Radio Suite Hackaday
In our surface-mount age, its easy to be jaded about miniaturization. We pretty much expect every circuit to be dimensionally optimized, something thats easy to do when SMDs that rival grains of sand are available. But dial the calendar back half a century or so and miniaturization was a much more challenging proposition.
Challenging, perhaps, but by no means unachievable, as [Helge Fyske (LA6NCA)] demonstrates with this ultra-compact regenerative vacuum tube receiver. Its a companion to his recent spy transmitter, a two-tube radio built in or on, really an Altoids tin. The transmitter was actually a pretty simple circuit, just a crystal-controlled oscillator and an RF amplifier really, but still managed about 1.5 Watts output on the 80-meter ham band.
The receiver circuit ended up being much more complicated, as receivers do, and therefore harder to cram into the allotted space. [Helge]s used a three-tube regenerative design, with one tube each devoted to the RF amp, detector/mixer, and audio amplifier stages. As in the transmitter, the receiver tubes are mounted on the outside of the box, with the inside crammed full of comp...

Abandoned Eval PHP WordPress plugin abused to backdoor websites Security Affairs
Threat actors were observed installing the abandoned Eval PHP plugin on compromised WordPress sites for backdoor deployment.
Researchers from Sucuri warned that threat actors are installing the abandoned Eval PHP plugin on compromised WordPress sites for backdoor deployment.
The Eval PHP plugin allows PHP code to be inserted into the pages and posts of WordPress sites and then executed every time the posts are opened.
The malicious code uses the file_put_contents function to create a PHP script into the docroot of the website with the specified remote code execution backdoor. The backdoor will be injected into the file structure when threat actors visit one of the infected posts or pages.
The experts pointed out that the plugin hasnt been updated in over a decade and the number of real active installs is very low. Since the beginning of April threat actors are installing the Eval PHP plugin on compromised WordPress sites and using it to inject malicious PHP code into web pages.
During the last ten years, since the end of March, 2023, the plugin rarely had 1 download a day. Around March 29, the researchers observed daily downloads spike to 7,000. Then, every single day the plugin totaled 3k-5k downloads, while the total number of downloads reached 100,000.
The Eval PHP plugin continues to be available through the WordPress repository, Sucuri explained.
The cause of the surge of downloads is the hacking campaign conducted by the threat actors.
Sucuri reported that all the requests originate from three IP addresses, 91[.]193[.]43[.]151, 79[.]137[.]206[.]177, 212[.]113[.]119[.]6.
The experts explained that the PHP backdoor can hide requests as cookies to avoid detection.

Movie Company Exposes 150 Alleged BitTorrent Pirates Using DMCA Shortcut TorrentFreak
Tracking BitTorrent pirates isnt all that hard since IP
addresses are broadcasted publicly. With help from Internet
providers, these addresses can then be linked to an account
holder.
ISPs dont hand over this data voluntarily; they typically require a subpoena or court order to take action.
In the United States, these subpoenas are typically obtained by filing a copyright complaint in federal court against a John Doe whos known only by an IP address. Most of these cases are filed against a single person, which makes it a relatively expensive process.
The filing fee for these cases is over $400 and there are no guarantees the money will be recouped. Some rightsholders believe that this cost of admission is money well spent, but others are prepared to test alternative routes.
Capstone Studios Targets 150 IP-addresses
Movie production company Capstone Studios is one of those rightsholders. The company decided to take action when it noticed that its survival thriller film Fall, which it co-produced with BuzzFeed, was widely pirated through various torrent sites.
To stop these infringements, Capstone sent takedown notices to Internet providers whose customers IP-addresses showed up in the public swarms. These warning notices, sent through the Cyprus-based company PML Process Management, were meant to be forwarded to the linked subscriber accounts.
We respectfully ask that you stop infringing and redistributing Capstone Studios Corp. copyright protected content, and take the proper steps to secure your Internet so that others do not infringe and redistribute our content as well, they read.
The enforcement effort didnt end there. A few days ago, Capstone requested a so-called DMCA subpoena at a federal court in Colorado. The request targets 150 IP-addresses that are linked to allegedly infringing Centurylink accounts.

Sturdy, degradable materials made from plants and other non-petroleum sources have come a long way in recent years. For example, cornstarch-based packing peanuts disappear simply by dousing them in water, and some utensils are based on polymers synthesized from plant sugars. But those packing peanuts can't be used to protect anything wet, and plant-derived polymers still take a long time to break down. One potential alternative is a new type of rigid material designed from isomalt, which is a sugar alcohol rather than a polymer. With isomalt, bakers can create breathtaking, but brittle, structures for desserts, and then dissolve them away quickly in water. So, Scott Phillips and colleagues wanted to boost the sturdiness of isomalt with natural additives to create a robust material that degrades on-demand.
The researchers heated isomalt to a liquid-like state and mixed in either cellulose, cellulose and sawdust, or wood flour to produce three different materials. Then, using commercial plastics manufacturing equipment, the materials were extruded into small pellets and molded into various objects, including balls, a dodecahedron, a chess piece and flower-shaped saucers. All of the tested additives doubled the strength of isomalt, creating materials that were harder than plastics, including poly(ethylene terephthalate) (known as PET) and poly(vinyl chloride) (known as PVC), but were still lightweight. In experiments, samples dissolved in water within minutes. And saucers made of the material, and coated with a food grade shellac and cellulose acetate, withstood being immersed in water for up to seven days. However, once the saucers were broken and the coating cracked, they rapidly disintegrated in water. The team also repeatedly crushed, dissolved and recycled both coated and uncoated objects into new ones that were still as strong as the original items.
The researchers say that the material could be used for food-service items and temporary dcor, and then crushed and sprayed with water to fall apart. But even if such items were simply tossed into the trash or somehow got into the environment, the slightest crack in the coating would start their collapse into sugars and the plant-based additives, which the researchers say might be good for soil.

Haptic System Creates Finger-Touch Sensations Hardware-Free IEEE Spectrum
One of the trippiest virtual-reality experiences that Ive ever had was being able to touch an object that didnt exist. Getting immersed in a virtual world through a headset that provides video and audio is one thing, but adding in touch is somehow transformative; physical interaction brings you into that virtual world in a much more direct way. But as with everything related to VR or AR, its all extremely hardware intensive. And especially in the case of augmented reality, all of that hardware can get in the way.
This hardware layer is a problem for virtual touch, because it seems like theres just no way around it. Video and audio have ways of making themselves transparent, like with glasses or contact lenses or bone conduction, which let you experience the real world with an additional layer of reality added on topaugmented reality. With touch, though, there arent good options for transparency, because there has to be some physical thing touching, say, your fingers for you to actually feel sensations. Typically, this is some sort of glove, and whether or not the glove is transmitting a haptic signal, youre still wearing it all the time, which is not transparent at all.
Researchers from the University of Chicago have figured out a clever way around this problem. In a paper that will be presented at the 2023 Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems, or CHI 2023, (where it will also be honored with a best paper award), they demonstrate a wearable system that can generate tactile sensations across the bottom of your fingers and palm without any hardware getting in the way, by hacking into the nerves on the back of your hand instead.
This method depends on whats called referred sensation, where stimulation of your body in one place gets felt in another placeits like when you accidentally bash your elbow against something but can feel tingling up through your fingers, because the signal has traveled along your nerves up through your hand. In some places, including in the fingers, referred sensation can be targeted with a reasonable amount of precision. With a signal electrode on the top of a finger and a ground electrode closer to the wrist, its possible...

Op Amp Contest: Clever Continuity Tester Tells you Where the Problem is Hackaday
A continuity tester, as found on most multimeters today, is a great tool for finding broken connections and short circuits. But once youve found a short, its up to you to figure out which part of the circuit its in a tedious job on a large PCB with hundreds of components. [John Guy] aims to ease this task with a continuity tester that modulates the beepers tone according to the resistance measured in the circuit. Tracking down a short circuit is then simply a matter of probing multiple points along a track and observing whether the pitch goes up or down.

Erin Rose Glass: LibrePlanet 2023 Keynote Talk on Education and the Future of Software Freedom Techrights
Summary: The above LibrePlanet keynote talk was uploaded by the FSF 4.5 days ago (slides here; PeerTube link); From the official page: As the political stakes of digital technology become increasingly apparent, its clear that an ethical approach to software use and development is more important than ever. While a number of organizations and advocates are doing important work to advance ethical forms of software practice, we continue to miss one of the key sites where software habits and expectations are reinforced and normalized at scale, that is, institutions of education. In this talk, I will discuss the inadvertent role higher education plays in teaching students to passively accept broad forms of digital surveillance and control through its use of popular educational technologies like learning management systems, word processing software, and test taking tools, and how this submission leads to the broader mass helplessness in the face of current technological struggles. Starting with my chance encounter with free software as a humanities graduate student, I will highlight a range of promising contemporary examples of experiments in higher education that push against exploitative trends in educational technology and expose students to the differentiating value and possibility of software freedom. As we chart the course of the future of software, these examples shine light on the importance of educational institutions in the struggle for software freedom and the urgent need for broader community support to help sustain and encourage these precarious endeavors.

CISA adds MinIO, PaperCut, and Chrome bugs to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog Security Affairs
US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) added MinIO, PaperCut, and Chrome vulnerabilities to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog.
U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has added the following three new issues to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog:
- CVE-2023-28432 (CVSS score 7.5) MinIO Information Disclosure Vulnerability. The issue resides in a cluster deployment where MinIO returns all environment variables, which allows for information disclosure.
- CVE-2023-27350 (CVSS score 9.8) PaperCut MF/NG Improper Access Control Vulnerability. PaperCut MF/NG contains an improper access control vulnerability within the SetupCompleted class that allows authentication bypass and code execution in the context of system.
- CVE-2023-2136 Google Chrome Skia Integer Overflow Vulnerability. The vulnerability is an Integer overflow in the Skia graphics library, the issue was reported by Clment Lecigne of Googles Threat Analysis Group on April 12, 2023. A remote attacker who had compromised the renderer process can exploit the integer overflow in the Skia library to potentially perform a sandbox escape via a crafted HTML page.
According to Binding Operational Directive (BOD) 22-01: Reducing the Significant Risk of Known Exploited Vulnerabilities, FCEB agencies have to address the identified vulnerabilities by the due date to protect their networks against attacks exploiting the flaws in the catalog.
Experts recommend also private organizations review the Catalog and address the vulnerabilities in their infrastructure.
CISA orders federal agencies to fix this flaw by May 12, 2023.

Archaeologists Unearth a Fanciful Ancient Winery Near Rome SoylentNews
Archaeologists have discovered the remains of an 1,800-year-old winery at the Villa of the Quintilii outside of Rome. By the team's measure, the winery was designed as much for the spectacle of wine-making as the practice itself.
Decorated rooms around the winery appear to have hosted guests who would observe the wine-making process, the researchers found, and the finishes (including marble floors) seem installed for appearances over practicality. The team's research is published in Antiquity.
"Agricultural labor was romanticized by the ruling classes of many ancient cultures, especially as it was often the source of both their wealth and status," said Emlyn Dodd, a researcher at the Institute of Classical Studies at the University of London, in an Antiquity release.

At least 2 critical infrastructure orgs breached by North Korea-linked hackers behind 3CX attack Security Affairs
North Korea-linked APT group behind the 3CX supply chain attack also broke into two critical infrastructure organizations in the energy sector.
Symantec researchers reported that the campaign conducted by North Korea-linked threat actors that included the 3CX supply chain attack also hit two critical infrastructure organizations in the energy sector.
The X_Trader software supply chain attack affected more organizations than 3CX. Initial investigation by Symantecs Threat Hunter Team has, to date, found that among the victims are two critical infrastructure organizations in the energy sector, one in the U.S. and the other in Europe. reports Symantec. It appears likely that the X_Trader supply chain attack is financially motivated, since Trading Technologies, the developer of X_Trader, facilitates futures trading, including energy futures.
The researchers also state that two other organizations involved in financial trading were also breached.
North Korea APT groups are known to carry out both cyber espionage campaigns and financially motivated attacks, for this reason, the compromise of critical infrastructure is worrisome.
The attack chain analyzed by Symantec commences with the Trojanized installer named X_TRADER_r7.17.90p608.exe. The executable file is digitally signed by Trading Technologies International, Inc. and contains a malicious executable named Setup.exe.
The malware employed in the attack achieves persistence by invoking a CLSID_TaskScheduler COM object, attempting to create a scheduled task to run periodically the file TpmVscMgrSvr.exe.
The X_Trader application was retired in 2020, but users can still download it from the companys website.
Upon installing the legitimate X_Trader executable, it side-loads the two malicious DLLs dropped by the installer.
The discovery that 3CX was breached by another, earlier supply chain attack made it highly likely that further organizations would be impacted by this campaign, which now transpires to be far more wide-ranging than originally believed. concludes the report. The attackers behind these breaches clearly have a successful template for software supply chain attacks and further, similar attacks cannot be ruled out.
Symantec provided indicators of compromise for this campaign.

Biofriendly Transient Devices Emerge IEEE Spectrum
Researchers at Northwestern University, Evanston, Ill., and the University of Sussex, Brighton, England, have created prototypes of new environmentally sustainable devices that can monitor blood pressure and heartbeat, or heal persistent afflictions such as diabetic ulcers.
The devices are also far more advanced than proof-of-concept stage; the Northwestern device, a transient bandage that uses electrotherapy to both monitor and heal diabetic wounds, is resorbed into the body. It may be ready for human trials within a year to 18 months, according to Guillermo Ameer, director of Northwesterns Center for Advanced Regenerative Engineering. The bandage consists of two small molybdenum electrodes connected to a battery-free power-harvesting unit and a near-field communications module that communicates with control software in a smartphone or tablet.
In a study conducted on diabetic mice published in Science Advances, Ameer and his collaborators, including resorbable electronics pioneer John Rogers, found the device led to 30 percent faster healing than a control group using ordinary bandages.
The device works by transmitting a small current from the outer ringlike electrode, which sits around the wound site, to the inner flower-shaped electrode, which is about 120 micrometers across and sits atop the wound. (The mouse study used about 1 volt of current, and Ameer said that may change in upcoming studies on larger animals.) The current stimulates healthy skin regeneration, the progress of which is measured by current differential between the electrodes. As the wound heals and dries, the current differential decreases.
Perhaps the most compelling element of the device is the inner electrode. As the wound heals, the regenerated skin grows over the electrode and completely absorbs it. The outer ring electrode and the accompanying power and communications unit are detachable from the inner electrode. Results of the mouse study showed molybdenum concentrations in the body returned to those similar to the control groups within 22 weeks.
Ameer said he and his colleagues would not have moved forward with the idea if they did not think it was safe.
Its a matter of risk/benefit, like any other drug or medical device, he said. This is not designed for your kid who gets a...

We all contribute should we get paid for that? Lifeboat News: The Blog
In Silicon Valley, some of the brightest minds believe a universal basic income (UBI) that guarantees people unrestricted cash payments will help them to survive and thrive as advanced technologies eliminate more careers as we know them, from white collar and creative jobs lawyers, journalists, artists, software engineers to labor roles. The idea has gained enough traction that dozens of guaranteed income programs have been started in U.S. cities since 2020.
Yet even Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI and one of the highest-profile proponents of UBI, doesnt believe that its a complete solution. As he said during a sit-down earlier this year, I think it is a little part of the solution. I think its great. I think as [advanced artificial intelligence] participates more and more in the economy, we should distribute wealth and resources much more than we have and that will be important over time. But I dont think thats going to solve the problem. I dont think thats going to give people meaning, I dont think it means people are going to entirely stop trying to create and do new things and whatever else. So I would consider it an enabling technology, but not a plan for society.
The question begged is what a plan for society should then look like, and computer scientist Jaron Lanier, a founder in the field of virtual reality, writes in this weeks New Yorker that data dignity could be an even bigger part of the solution.

SpaceXs successful failure is a wake-up call for Starships timeline Lifeboat News: The Blog
SpaceX launched a fully integrated Starship launch vehicle for the first time on Thursday morning, a long-awaited and highly anticipated milestone in the vehicle development program.
The orbital test flight surpassed many expectations. The vehicle cleared Max Q the point at which the most aerodynamic pressure is exerted on the vehicle and flew for nearly three minutes despite eight of its 33 rocket engines failing. The rocket reached an altitude of almost 40 kilometers, the point of stage separation, at which time the upper stage failed to separate from the booster, leading to uncontrolled tumbling and a spectacular midair explosion.
Despite its fiery fate, the test was a success: SpaceX got tons of valuable data that will inform future Starship and Super Heavy prototypes. But for all the wins, the test was a stark reminder that Starship mission timelines are in need of a reset.

First beating-heart transplants from cardiac death donors Lifeboat News: The Blog
Using an organ from a donor who underwent cardiac death, Stanford Medicine surgeons transplanted a heart while it was beatingthe first time such a procedure has been achieved.
Initially performed by Joseph Woo, MD, professor and chair of cardiothoracic surgery, and his team in October, the technique has since been used in adult and pediatric patients five more times by surgeons at Stanford Medicine.
Stopping the heart before implantation can damage the cardiac tissue, so keeping it beating during transplantation avoids further injury to the organ.

AI Poised to Transform Video Compression Landscape SoylentNews
Apple's WaveOne purchase heralds a new era in smart-streaming of AR and video:
Apple's surprise purchase at the end of last month of WaveOne, a California-based startup that develops content-aware AI algorithms for video compression, showcases an important shift in how video signals are streamed to our devices. In the near-term Cuppertino's purchase will likely lead to smart video-compression tools in Apple's video-creation products and in the development of its much-discussed augmented-reality headset.
However, Apple isn't alone. Startups in the AI video codec space are likely to prove acquisition targets for other companies trying to keep up.
[...] AI codecs, having been developed over the course of decades, use machine-learning algorithms to analyze and understand the visual content of a video, identify redundancies and nonfunctional data, and compress the video in a more efficient way. They use learning-based techniques instead of manually designed tools for encoding and can use different ways to measure encoding quality beyond traditional distortion measures. Recent advancements, like attention mechanisms, help them understand the data better and optimize visual quality.
During the first half of the 2010s, Netflix and a California-based company called Harmonic helped to spearhead a movement of what's called "content-aware" encoding. CAE, as Harmonic calls it, uses AI to analyze and identify the most important parts of a video scene, and to allocate more bits to those parts for better visual quality, while reducing the bit rate for less important parts of the scene.
Content-aware video compression adjusts an encoder for different resolutions of encoding, adjusts the bit rate according to content, and adjusts the quality scorethe perceived quality of a compressed video compared to the original uncompressed video. All those things can be done by neural encoders as well.

NFC Antennas Have Other Uses Hackaday
As NFC chips proliferate, so do the antennas they require for operation, and since many NFC-enabled items are single-use, this means theres an opportunity to put them to other uses. Its an avenue pursued by [Brother-live], as he strips the antennas from spent metro tickets and gets experimenting.
The antenna in an NFC-enabled card is a flexible PCB laminated between the plastic outer layers, with the tracks forming a coil round the outside of it. Using some solvent the cards can be easily separated and the antennas retrieved. Once the chip has been removed they can be cleaned up and soldered to, allowing wires to be connected.
What can you do with an NFC antenna? Not a huge amount as you can see in the (Russian language, English subtitles) video below the break, but he tries it as a not-very-good heating pad, a power harvesting antenna from NFC readers, and perhaps most promisingly, as the coil of a moving-coil speaker. Were not sure how much effort would be worth making on that last front, but we think with a bit of care there might be room for audible improvement.
If youve ever been tempted to have a look at an NFC card, its a subject weve covered before.

New injectable cell therapy could resolve osteoarthritis Lifeboat News: The Blog
Wake Forest Institute for Regenerative Medicine (WFIRM) scientists have created a promising injectable cell therapy to treat osteoarthritis that both reduces inflammation and also regenerates articular cartilage.
Recently identified by the Food and Drug Administration as a public health crisis, osteoarthritis affects more than 520 million people worldwide who deal with pain and inflammation. Osteoarthritis is typically induced by mechanical or traumatic stress in the joint, leading to damaged cartilage that cannot be repaired naturally.
Without better understanding of what drives the initiation and progression of osteoarthritis, effective treatment has been limited, said lead author Johanna Bolander of WFIRM. Initially, we studied what goes wrong in osteoarthritic joints, compared these processes to functional environments, and used this information to develop an immunotherapy cell treatment.

Summary: Sirius is a good case study, especially for longtime insiders; Techrights investigates what it takes to deal with white-collar crime, starting with evidence-gathering to investigation and prosecution (maybe well have some mugshots to share at the end)
PENSION fraud seems rather common in the UK. Companies like pension providers profit from it. It seems to be happening routinely. So much so that it is a special category with loads of options. How many people in the UK report pension fraud each year? Probably a lot.
The crimes of Sirius Open Source go beyond pension fraud, but well focus on pensions here. Sirius isnt so unique in this regard, but there are points to note. The CEO escaped the company last month, but people below processed the payslips with fake claims of pension payments adding up. These payslips were basically lies. The company, Sirius, offered us a pension that did not exist. This was done not just to me but also to my colleagues; there are similar letters sent to them too, with accompanying payslips to demonstrate the glaring anomaly.
For over 5 years the company deducted money, for pension (arranged by Sirius, with alleged contributions of its own), but the money was not given to the pension provider, as formally confirmed by the pension provider itself (final response issued and challenged a week ago).
The company kept deducting for pensions, for another about 4 years, after it no longer even had any records with the pension provider (see letter).
The company refused to talk about this, even when inquiries came from former staff a long time ago. Now the company is in hiding, without a physical office. The companys CEO abruptly left last month (when all this was exposed and verified by the pension provider).
There are at least 3 people who participated in this embezzlement. It must be acted upon urgently as they may be hiding money and tampering with evidence.

While air hockey is a fine amusement, it isnt much fun if you cant find someone to play against. Unless that is, you build a mini table with a robotic defender. [Vaib], [Nathan], and [Navish] can show you how. There is a video you can see below that shows two players using the table without the robot.
The project takes a bit of woodworking, as you might expect. You also have to drill 576 holes for the air to lift the puck. Some of the components are 3D printed in PETG, too. The automated defense uses a camera and relies on the fact that the puck is the only red thing on the table. A servo moves to intercept the incoming puck and return the shot. We were disappointed the video didnt show the automated play.
We wondered if they had considered making a pair of the detachable robots and letting them play with each other. If you prefer football, the robot could probably adapt. Weve seen other robot air hockey contenders, so maybe a better idea would be to build different robots and let them compete for a gold medal.

Reporting Crime at Sirius Open Source schestowitz.com
Summary: The seriously rogue company, Sirius Open Source (it is not Open Source), has run out of time; with the doors closing and with evidence-gathering concluding, its time to face the music
MY earlier post hinted that this coming week, starting this weekend, we shall escalate a little, starting with a mini series about crimes of Sirius Open Source. These crimes started the very year I joined (2011), based on hard, verifiable (and already-verified) evidence. In parallel, special law-enforcing authorities in the UK shall be getting involved. Such involvement is imperative. The crime was committed by more than one person and several culprits are based in the United Kingdom.
As the title suggests, as before, none of the enablers and beneficiaries would speak about this. Their consistent approach boils down to hide, keep quiet, pretend not to exist. At this stage there is no other choice but to proceed with prosecution and arrest. Litigation isnt necessary, just as youd not sue a thief who broke into your house; you phone the police and report the crime. Weve already gathered the evidence for almost everything. It just took time, but it spares cops the typical excuses/stalling. The Pension Regulator isnt a cop; hence, it doesnt deal with crimes.
As noted several days ago, we got formal (written) letters confirming our allegations. We no longer explore draining out NOW: Pensions (bank details for withdrawal or cheque for us to pick up with paperwork signed) because after months of insistent reminders the company finally did the right thing and followed that up days later. Its just a blunder and a scandal that it took so long and involved them lying about half a dozen times (managers also). How many people out there, outside Sirius, are similarly scammed but arent aware of it. Probably a lot.
Sirius management does not wish to talk about it. When the special crime units phone them all up they will be forced to talk. Those who will face or accept unpleasant consequences did it to themselves. And they did that at great expense to other, innocent, unknowing people (this was covered by several external entities, including Standard Life).

Kodiak Robotics Will Haul Freight Autonomously for Tyson Foods SoylentNews
Kodiak Robotics will haul freight autonomously for Tyson Foods:
Autonomous trucking startup Kodiak Robotics is partnering with truckload carrier C.R. England to autonomously ship Tyson Foods products between Dallas and San Antonio, Texas.
A human safety operator will be present in the one dedicated truck Kodiak is allocating to this pilot. Deliveries will begin this month, according to the company.
The pilot program is the latest in Kodiak's growing string of paid partnerships with major carriers, and it further demonstrates the startup's potential path to sustainability and even profitability once it removes the human safety driver from operations.
A spokesperson for Kodiak said the company aims to remove the safety operator within the next couple of years.
[...] Kodiak says the partnership is not only emblematic of how human-driven trucks and autonomous trucks can work together, but it also provides a use case for autonomy as a solution for moving perishable products in a timely manner.
[...] As part of the partnership, C.R. England is also joining Kodiak's Partner Development Program, which is Kodiak's way of working with carriers to help establish autonomous freight operations and, hopefully, integrate Kodiak's self-driving system into their fleet.
"Our intent is to be a 'one-stop shop' for customers, whether they need their freight moved autonomously or not," said England.

Maintaining or administering a computer system remotely is a common enough task these days, but its also something that can go sideways on you quickly if you arent careful. How many of us are guilty of executing a command, having it fail, and only then realizing that we werent connected to the correct computer at all? [Callan] occasionally has this issue as well, but in at least one instance, he deleted all of the contents of the wrong server by mistake. To avoid that mistake again, he uses color codes in the command line in a fairly unique way.
The solution at first seems straightforward enough. Since the terminal hes using allows for different colors to be displayed for the user and hostname on the bash prompt, different text and background colors are used for each server. The only problem with this is that his friends also have access to these servers, and one of them is red/green colorblind, which led to another near-catastrophic mix-up. To ensure no edge cases are missed, [Callan] built a script which runs on every new server he spins up which selects two random colors, checks that they contrast well with each other, dont create problems for the colorblind, and then applies them to the bash prompt.

How to Create Your Own Auto-GPT AI Agent SoylentNews
Create an AI agent that works from a set of goals:
To get good output from ChatGPT or another LLM, you usually have to feed it several prompts. But what if you could just give your AI bot a set of fairly broad goals at the start of a session and then sit back while it generates its own set of tasks to fulfill those goals? That's the idea behind Auto-GPT, a new open-source tool that uses the OpenAI API (same LLM as ChatGPT) to prompt itself, based on your initial input.
We've already seen a number of Twitter users talk about how they are using Auto-GPT for everything from creating marketing plans to analyzing market data for investments to preparing topics for a podcast. Based on our hands-on experience, we can't say that it always works well (we asked it to write a Windows 11 how-to and the result was awful), but it's early days and some tasks may work better than others.
If you want to try Auto-GPT on your computer, it is easy to install, and while there are a few sticky points in the process, we've found ways to work with them, or around them to write this condensed guide on how to create your own Auto-GPT AI to help you in your goals.
[...] You may or may not need to add payment information to your OpenAI account. By default, the system will give you a certain amount of free credits. In Editor-in-Chief Avram Piltch's case, it was $18 worth of free credit that he was able to use without entering any payment methods. You may not get as much free credit or may need to add a payment method to your OpenAI account to proceed.
The article has a step-by-step guide for getting up and running on a Windows machine. If you choose to add a payment method, make sure put a limit on how much money it can charge.

Stop This Dangerous Bill That Would Normalize Face Surveillance in California Deeplinks
Californians: It's time to speak out against government use of face surveillance. While several California cities have banned government use of face recognition technology, state lawmakers haven't taken the same approach. A new bill this session, A.B. 642authored by Assemblymember Phil Tingwould normalize and incentivize police use of this technology across the state.
EFF opposes this bill, along with more than 50 organizations including ACLU California Action. Together, we have called on the Assembly Privacy and Consumer Protection Committee to stop it from moving forward. Join us in saying California should not normalize government use of face recognition technology.
Oppose Face Surveillance in California
In the hands of police and other government agencies, face recognition technology presents an inherent threat to our privacy, free expression, information security, and social justice. Our faces are unique identifiers that cant be left at home or replaced like a stolen ID or compromised password. The technology facilitates covert mass surveillance of the places we frequent and people we associate with. Government agencies even plan to use it to try to determine our emotional state.
Face recognition technology also disproportionately impacts people of color. The New York Times published a long piece on the case of Robert Julian-Borchak Williams, who was arrested by Detroit police after face recognition technology erroneously identified him as a suspect in a theft case. Williams and multiple other Black men (Michael Oliver, Nijeer Parks, Randal Reid, and Alanzo Sawyer) have garnered the attention of national media after face recognition technology led to them being falsely arrested by police.

A Dataset of Python Code Change Patterns It Will Never Work in Theory
One of the most effective ways to encourage collaboration is to share your code and data, and that's what the authors of this paper have done. They have assembled a dataset of generalizable Python code change patterns, each of which is annotated with a description of what it does, how it is applied, and where it occurred. I can think of half a dozen ways to use this, and I'm sure many readers can think of more. If you'd like to play with the dataset, you can download it from Figshare.

common way of discovering unknown change patterns. Such change patterns can be used in code recommender systems or automated program repair techniques. While there are such tools and datasets exist for Java, there is little work on finding and recommending such changes in Python. In this paper, we present a data set of manually vetted generalizable Python repetitive code change patterns. We create a coding guideline to identify generalizable change patterns that can be used in automated tooling. We leverage the mined change patterns from recent work that mines repetitive changes in Python projects and use our coding guideline to manually review the patterns. For each change, we also record a description of the change and why it is applied along with other characteristics such as the number of projects it occurs in. This review process allows us to identify and share 72 Python change patterns that can be used to build and advance Python developer support tools.

Solar Protocol Envisions a Solar-Powered Web Hackaday
The transition to low carbon energy is an important part of mitigating climate change, and the faster we can manage, the better. One project looking at how we could reduce the energy requirements of the web to more quickly adopt renewable energy is Solar Protocol.
Instead of routing requests to the fastest server when a user pulls up a website, Solar Protocol routes the request to the server currently generating the greatest amount of solar power. Once a user is on a website, the experience is energy-responsive. Website style and image resolution can range based on the power left in the active servers batteries, including an image free low power mode.
Another benefit to the projects energy efficiency approach is a focus on only the essential parts of a page and not any of the tracking or other privacy-endangering superfluous features present on many other websites. They go into much more depth in the Solar Protocol Manifesto. As a community project, Solar Protocol is still looking for more stewards since the network can go down if an insufficient number of servers are generating electricity.

A Prehistoric Method for Tailoring Clothes May be Written in Bone SoylentNews
A punctured bone fragment predates eyed needles in Western Europe by about 15,000 years:
An animal bone fragment full of human-made pits hints at how prehistoric people in Western Europe may have crafted clothing.
The nearly 40,000-year-old artifact probably served as a punch board for leatherwork, researchers report April 12 in Science Advances. They suggest that the bone fragment rested beneath animal hide while an artisan pricked holes in the material, possibly for seams. If so, it's the earliest-known tool of its kind and predates eyed needles in the region by about 15,000 years.
Found at an archaeological site south of Barcelona, the roughly 11-centimeter-long bone fragment contains 28 punctures scattered across one flat side, with 10 of them aligned and fairly evenly spaced.
The marks don't seem to have been a notation system or decoration, given that some holes are hard to see and the bone fragment wasn't otherwise shaped, says archaeologist Luc Doyon of the University of Bordeaux in France. He thought leatherwork could have made the marks. But it wasn't until he visited a cobbler shop and saw one of the artisan's tools that the hypothesis solidified, guiding Doyon's next steps.
[...] Scientists knew that humans wore clothing long before the oldest-known eyed needles existed (SN: 4/20/10). "What [the new finding] tells us is that the first modern humans who lived in Europe had the technology in their toolkit for making fitted clothes," Doyon says.

The STOP CSAM Act Would Put Security and Free Speech at Risk Deeplinks
A new U.S. Senate bill introduced this week threatens security and free speech on the internet. EFF urges Congress to reject the STOP CSAM Act of 2023, which would undermine services offering end-to-end encryption, and force internet companies to take down lawful user content.
TELL CONGRESS NOT TO OUTLAW ENCRYPTED APPS
The bill is aimed at removing from the internet child sexual abuse material (CSAM), also known as child pornography. Existing law already requires online service providers who have actual knowledge of apparent CSAM on their platforms to report that content to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC), which is essentially a government entity. NCMEC then forwards actionable reports to law enforcement agencies for investigation.
The STOP CSAM Act goes much further. The bill applies to interactive computer services, which broadly includes private messaging and email apps, social media platforms, cloud storage providers, and many other internet intermediaries and online service providers.The bill does four main things:
- It makes it a crime for providers to knowingly host or store CSAM or knowingly promote or facilitate the sexual exploitation of children, including the creation of CSAM, on their platforms....

Software Detective Debunked Mike Lindells Election Fraud Claims IEEE Spectrum
Robert Zeidman, a software detective who literally wrote the book on looking for evidence of wrongdoing in lines of computer code (The Software IP Detectives Handbook), was awarded US $5 million on 19 April by an arbitration panel for winning the Prove Mike Wrong challenge. That is, he debunked a claim made by MyPillow founder Mike Lindell, who insisted that he had data documenting Chinese interference in the 2020 election. Lindell announced the contest during a 2021 so-called cyber symposium in South Dakota. He handed 11 files over to contestants, including binary files, text files, and a spreadsheet, and offered the cash prize to anyone who could prove that the data wasnt related to the 2020 election.
Zeidman quickly did so, documenting his analysis in a 15-page report that concluded the data Lindell provides, and represents reflects information from the November 2020 election, unequivocally does not contain packet data of any kind and do not contain any information related to the November 2020 election. Zeidman detailed the steps he had taken to analyze the data, ruling out an election connection.
I am a digital detective. I can figure out
who stole what from whom.
Robert Zeidman
Coming to this conclusion this apparently wasnt all that hard. Some of the data, Zeidman recently told the Las Vegas Review-Journal, looked like someone had simply typed random numbers; another data set had been created just days before the contest, not before the 2020 election, pretty obvious given that creation dates on the files had not been altered.
Lindell rejected Zeidmans attempt to claim the prize.
Zeidman, per the contest rules, took the matter to arbitration, and on Wednesday the arbitration panel found for Zeidman. In its 23-page report, made available by The Washington Post, the panel pointed out that Zeidman said he entered the contest not expecting to winbelieving that any data offered had to have been strictly vettedbut in order to see history in the making. The data had, the report indicated, been sent to a so...

Dairy Foods Helped Ancient Tibetans Thrive in One of Earth's Most Inhospitable Environments SoylentNews
The Tibetan Plateau, known as the "third pole", or "roof of the world", is one of the most inhospitable environments on Earth. While positive natural selection at several genomic loci enabled early Tibetans to better adapt to high elevations, obtaining sufficient food from the resource-poor highlands would have remained a challenge.
Now, a new study in the journal Science Advances reveals that dairy was a key component of early human diets on the Tibetan Plateau. The study reports ancient proteins from the dental calculus of 40 human individuals from 15 sites across the interior plateau.
[...] Ancient protein evidence indicates that dairy products were consumed by diverse populations, including females and males, adults and children, as well as individuals from both elite and non-elite burial contexts. Additionally, prehistoric Tibetan highlanders made use of the dairy products of goats, sheep, and possibly cattle and yak. Early pastoralists in western Tibet seem to have had a preference for goat milk.
"The adoption of dairy pastoralism helped to revolutionize people's ability to occupy much of the plateau, particularly the vast areas too extreme for crop cultivation," says Prof. Nicole Boivin, senior author of the study.
[...] "We were excited to observe an incredibly clear pattern," says Li Tang. "All our milk peptides came from ancient individuals in the western and northern steppes, where growing crops is extremely difficult. However, we did not detect any milk proteins from the southern-central and south-eastern valleys, where more farmable land is available."

Europe, World: Heating and Breaching SoylentNews
It looks like the Paris Agreement is as dead as the fried chicken at my local deli.
At Paris, in 2015, the World agreed to limit the global temperature rise to 1.5 degrees Celsius. The latest report of the EU's Climate Change Service shows (summary pdf) that this target has been royally breached, at least for Europe. Temperatures there, averaged over the last 5 years, have increased by 2.2 degrees celsius.
Europe, at least, has a climate change service to measure these things. As for the rest of the world, an extrapolation of the pattern shown in Figure 1c, here, indicates that, there too, demand for swimming pools and flood insurance will grow.
To illustrate the complexity of the problem, the heatwave in mid-July of 2022 was caused by hot air from the Sahara moving into Europe, driving temperatures above 40 degrees Celsius. By mid-August, a stationary high-pressure system with clear skies and weak winds took hold, and caused a second heatwave, which was made worse due to the soil being dried out by the mid-July event, and no rains since.
Events above the Sahara might have come a second time in play, here. Increasing temperatures lead to a stronger evaporation over sea, while the land heats up more. This results in a stronger temperature gradient, which draws rains deeper inland: heavier rainfalls now are reported in the central Sahara, in summer, with formerly dry valleys being put under four meters of water. This causes less Sahara dust in the atmosphere, and hence shields the land less from solar radiation: the EU's report mentions that 2022 surface solar radiation was the highest in a 40 year record, and part of a positive trend.
To end with a positive note, the EU ain't doing so bad, compared to Greenland: three different heatwaves in 2022, and an average September temperature more than 8 degrees Celsius higher than normal.

Legit Torrents Shuts Down After 17 Years TorrentFreak
Over the
years, we have reported on the demise of hundreds of torrent sites.
Many of them folded due to legal pressure.
This week yet another site bites the dust; one that has been around since 2005, when the likes of TorrentSpy and Mininova ruled the scene.
While those two giants would eventually succumb to legal pressure, Legit Torrents kept on going. Unlike most others, this site specifically focused on content that would not cause any trouble with rightsholders.
RIP Legit Torrents (2005 2023)
Legit Torrents managed to flourish in its small niche for roughly 17 years but has now decided to shut down. According to its founder and operator, Dustin Montgomery, recent technical issues proved to be too much of a challenge.
The trouble started when the servers IP address was null-routed for sending spam or hosting malware. The action was the result of a larger IP address being blocked, which made it impossible for the sites hosting provider to restore the server remotely.
Technically, it would have been possible to rebuild the server and site, but after spending most of his life maintaining Legit Torrents, Dustin decided that the time had come to shut it down.
I started Legit Torrents in the fall of 2005. I was still in high school and back then there was no 100% legal torrent tracker that anyone could easily submit to, he recalls in a farewell message posted on the site.
Millions of Views
Like many others at the time, Legit Torrents began as a hobby project with minimal resources. Dustin recalls that it initially started out with a free dyndns.org subdomain. When traffic eventually started to come in, he made the sites first investment by picking up the legittorrents.info name for $0.99.
In the years that followed the site signed up roughly 50,000 users and hosted 5,500 torrents. With a few thousand pageviews a day, it certainly wasnt the most popular torrent sit...

Off-road terrain presents unique challenges for autonomous driving: steep slopes, ditches, rocks, vegetation, and ever-changing weather conditions. To ensure that our software stack is robust to anything it may encounter, we are constantly in the field testing and learning. This video shows clips of our field activities in late 2022 and early 2023, including our initial work with fully unoccupied vehicles.
Some real DARPA Grand Challenge vibes here, except where these robots are going, they dont need roads.

This Harvard Law Professor is an Expert on Digital Technology IEEE Spectrum
Jonathan L. Zittrain wears many hats. An expert on the Internet, digital technology, law, and public policy, he regularly contributes to public discussions about what digital tech is doing to us and what we should do about itmost recently around the governance of AI and the incentives that shape major social media platforms.
He holds several roles, all at Harvard, reflecting his many converging interests. He is a professor of international law at Harvard Law School, a professor of public policy at its Kennedy School, and a professor of computer science at the universitys John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences. Hes also cofounder and faculty director of Harvards Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society.
In his various capacities, he has been tackling many sticky cyberpolicy issues over the past 25 years.
Jonathan L. Zittrain
Employer:
Harvard
Titles:
Professor of international law, professor of public policy, professor of computer science
Education:
Yale, Harvard
Book:
The Future of the Internetand How to Stop It (Yale University Press, 2009)
Lately, Ive been working on the question of how to regulate and govern generative technologiesthat is, technologies like the Internet, the Web, and generative AI that allow contribution and development from nearly anyone or anywhere, Zittrain says.
Hes also curious about what role public interest plays in techs evolution, which these days is largely a product of market forces.
Im deeply interested in whether and how fast-growing and rapidly deployed technologies such as AI large language models and new distributed activity networks like those of Web3 should be governed or regulated.
CompuServe launched his career
Zittrain first got involved with computers in 1983, when he was in high school, and his parents gave him a US $99 Texas Instruments TI-99/4A, the first 16-bit home computer. Using a hand-me-down television set as a monitor, and a dial-up modem, he connected the computer to...

With AI Watermarking, Creators Strike Back IEEE Spectrum
This article is part of our exclusive IEEE Journal Watch series in partnership with IEEE Xplore.
AI models rely on immense data sets to train their complex
algorithms, but sometimes the use of those data sets for training
purposes can infringe on the rights of the data owners. Yet
actually proving that a model used a data set without authorization
has been notoriously difficult. However, a new
study published in IEEE Transactions on
Information Forensics and Security, researchers introduce a
method for protecting data sets from unauthorized use by embedding
digital watermarks into them. The technique could give data owners
more say in who is allowed to train AI models using their
data.
The simplest way of protecting data sets is to restrict their use, such as with encryption. But doing so would make those data sets difficult to use for authorized users as well. Instead, the researchers focused on detecting whether a given AI model was trained using a particular data set, says the studys lead author, Yiming Li. Models known to have been impermissibly trained on a data set can be flagged for follow up by the data owner.
Watermarking methods could cause harm, too, though. Malicious actors, for instance, could teach a self-driving system to incorrectly recognize stop signs as speed limit signs.
The technique can be applied to many different types of machine-learning problems, Li said, although the study focuses on classification models, including image classification. First, a small sample of images is selected from a data set and a watermark consisting of a set pattern of altered pixels is embedded into each image. Then the classification label of each watermarked image is changed to correspond to a target label. This establishes a relationship between the watermark and the target label, creating whats called a backdoor attack. Finally, the altered images are recombined with the rest of the data set and published, where its available for consumption by authorized users. To verify whether a particular model was trained using the data set, researchers simply run watermarked images through the model and see whether they get back the target label.
The technique can be used on a broad range of AI models. Because AI models naturally learn to incor...

Sharper 3D Holograms Come Into Focus IEEE Spectrum
Actual 3D holograms may be achievable in a projected medium that arent blurry or fuzzy but still appear to have real depth, according to a new study. The researchers, based in China and Singapore, exerted a new level of control over the hologram projections scattering medium.
Much like flying cars or warp-speed travel, holograms are a kind of technology that was overpromised by science fiction but underdelivered in reality. Today this technology is advanced enough to resurrect pop stars, like Whitney Houston, for convincing stage shows, but the depth of these projections mean that the hologram experience lacks convincing three-dimensionality. Low axial resolutionwhich is equivalent to the distance from the nearest image plane in focus to the farthest field in focus, also called depth of fieldand high levels of crosstalk interference between projection planes have long prevented 3D holograms from achieving finer depth control.
One of the innovations the team developed is a modulating medium for projecting imagessimilar to what LCD display screens use.
Now, a research team from the University of Science and Technology of China and the National University of Singapore have reported a new technique to solve both of these problems at once to create ultrahigh-density 3D holograms.
Our work presents a new paradigm towards realistic 3D holograms that can deliver an exceptional representation of the 3D world around us, says senior author on the paper, Lei Gong, an associate professor of optical engineering at the University of Science and Technology of China. Gong and colleagues call this method 3D scattering-assisted dynamic holography.
The new method might benefit real-life applications such as 3D printing, optical encryption, imaging and sensing, and more, he continues.
Large-scale 3D holograms are typically created by scattering a projection across many planes to create a stack of pixels that when viewed together give the impression of a virtual, 3D object. Stacking these image planes close together can create high-density images. However increasing the plane density can also generate interference in the form of cross talk, Gong says.
In short, cross talk is the mutual-intensity interference between images projected at different depths, he says....
