Fun. Vaguely reminiscent of the Amiga HAM video mode.

The article is riddled with AI errors (for example, the company's name is Viosys, not Biosys).

Looks like the innovation here is the multi-wavelength LED, some kind of multiple-quantum-well thing maybe?

A web search for "exploit chain uaf" found me a few real-world and a few tutorial examples, though I don't know which are good.

At a high level, though: once you've gotten a new object allocated where the old one was, you now have two different views of the same bit of memory. You use valid operations on one view to put the other one into a corrupted state. For example: in a unixlike kernel, maybe one view has a field containing a function pointer (for method dispatch, essentially). You read that field using the other view, use it to deduce something about the target's memory layout, write a new value to the pointer, then use the field via the first view to cause execution to jump to a location you control.

Why even learn to speak? Why not give up sentience entirely? (There's an SF novel from the last few decades which had this as part of the setting: that intelligence is only useful at some stages of evolution, and most spacefaring species eventually lose it?)

That matches my experience as well. Some of the most disastrous bugs that got shipped were from 2-line "obviously correct and safe" changes.

Looks like Gitlab ships its own forked copy of the Ruby Onigmo regex engine.

It's not just obvious, it's evident.

Last summer. The CVEs are from 2025.

Its manufacturer's competitor isn't, though, and they're probably really interested in that marketing info.

Does Slate actually make any statements about the level of telematics/surveillance in their vehicles?

The ones that the website hosting this article is named after?

I'd assumed that the VK test in the movie relied on knowing about the specific implanted memories that replicants had.

> On Thursday, Meta suspended the Instagram account of Satine’s deceased cat, Clark Gable.

Was the cat also wearing a bikini and/or promoting illegal adoptions?

That's the same distinction, made in the same way, isn't it?

You really only need authentication for that, not encryption. MACs and such are okay on ham bands as I understand it. You just can't obscure the message. If you want a private channel to the exclusion of other people, license a frequency and pay for it. Spectrum is a scarce resource.
