techcrunch.com Lorenzo Franceschi-Bicchierai 2026-02-22 06:14:16

In 2018, a hacker hired by the Mexican Sinaloa drug cartel run by the infamous kingpin Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán spied on the U.S. Embassy in Mexico City with the goal of identifying “people of interest” for the cartel to target and kill, according to a new U.S. government watchdog report.

Data Centers, Temperature, and Power

news.ycombinator.com Stephanie Doyle 2026-02-18 23:42:10

It’s easy to open a data center, right? All you have to do is connect a bunch of hard drives to power and the internet, find a building, and you’re off to the races. Well, not exactly. Building and using one Storage Pod is quite a bit different than managing exabytes of data. As the world has grown more connected, the demand for data centers has grown—and then along comes artificial intelligence (AI), with processing and storage demands that amp up the need even more. That, of course, has real

The Project Hail Mary trailer looks like The Martian all over again (in a great way)

engadget.com Unknown 2026-02-22 16:21:19

Andy Weir's sci-fi books are practically built to be turned into movies, especially in the hands of great writers and directors. That's what happened with The Martian, which was a delightfully nerdy self-published novel that was transformed into a thrilling film adaptation — thanks to Drew Goddard's script and Ridley Scott's bold direction. And I have a feeling the same will be true for the latest Weir adaptation, Project Hail Mary, judging from the first trailer released today. It's got everyt
