Cryptocurrency exchanges begin offering tokenized securities

As cryptocurrencies become more intertwined with the traditional financial system, industry heavyweights are racing for a long-sought goal of turning real-world assets into digital tokens. “Tokenization is going to open the door to a massive trading revolution,” said Vlad Tenev, the CEO of the trading platform Robinhood at a recent James Bond-themed tokenization launch event in the south of France. Advocates say tokenization is the next leap forward in crypto and can help break down walls that

Windsurf CEO opens up about ‘very bleak’ mood before Cognition deal

Days after AI coding startup Windsurf announced that it’s being acquired by Cognition, Windsurf exec Jeff Wang took to X to offer more details about the drama and uncertainty around the deal. Windsurf was previously reported to be in acquisition talks with OpenAI, but that deal fell apart, with Google DeepMind instead hiring the startup’s CEO Varun Mohan, co-founder Douglas Chen, and some of its top researchers. Google would reportedly license Windsurf’s technology as part of the $2.4 billion d

Musk's X refuses to hand over data in 'politically motivated' French investigation

France launches criminal probe of X's alleged algorithm 'manipulation'

It has labelled X as an "organized gang." X's Global Government Affairs account issued a scathing breakdown of what it calls France's "politically-motivated criminal investigation" and its refusal to cooperate. The French g

Debugging Bash Like a Sire (2023)

Many engineers have a strained relationship with Bash. I love it though, but I’m very aware of it’s limitations when it comes to error handling and data structures (or lack thereof). As a result of these limitations I often see Bash scripts written very defensively that define something like: set -euxo pipefail These are bash builtin options that do more or less sensible things. e: Exit immediately when a non-zero exit status is encountered u: Undefined variables throws an error and exits t

Perl Versioning Scheme and Gentoo

The Gentoo Perl Versioning Scheme A common observation/confusion people have is that the versions used on Perl related things in Gentoo don't directly correspond to upstream versions. This is because Upstream uses 2 different schemes, and one of those schemes is fundamentally incompatible with Gentoos. The Problem In most people's mind, this is how version numbers sort: 1.0 1.1 1.5 1.10 1.15 1.20 1.45 This is because you read . as a delimiter for multiple integers. However, in Perl, those

Soundcore Sleep A30: ANC Earbuds for Sleep That Can Save Your Marriage

I absolutely, positively, cannot sleep without ambient noise. I’m not sure when that neurotic prerequisite for sleep took root, but it’s here now, and I regard it as a fact of life. As you might imagine, that quirk is fine when I’m at home since I have plenty of noise machines at my disposal—an air conditioner, a smart speaker, and tons of earbuds—to fill the haunting silence that prevents me from sleep like unresolved vengeance prevents a ghost from passing on. But when I’m not at home, things

How slow motion became cinema’s dominant special effect

About 20 years ago, a neuroscientist named David Eagleman strapped a bunch of students into harnesses, hoisted them to the top of an imposing metal tower, and then, without warning, dropped them 150 feet. Though the students landed safely in nets, the experience was—by design—terrifying. Eagleton wanted to simulate the feeling of plummeting to one’s death. His goal was to figure out why survivors of near-death experiences almost always said the same thing: “It felt like the world was going in sl
