Ancient skull may have been half human, half Neanderthal child

arstechnica.com Unknown 2026-02-05 15:00:30

Back in 1929, archaeologists unearthed several human skeletons (seven adults and three children) while excavating Skuhl Cave just south of Haifa, Israel. Dating back 140,000 years to the end of the Middle Pleistocene, most were classified as early Homo sapiens. But one skeleton was that of a child, between the age of 3 and 5 years old whose features seemed to show a mix of early human and Neanderthal characteristics. A new analysis involving CT scanning may resolve the long-standing debate, acco

Solving Wordle with uv's dependency resolver

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2026-02-04 15:28:30

Introduction In a previous life, I wrote a Sudoku solver that relied on Poetry's dependency resolver. We ended up selling that startup to EDB (not because of the Poetry hack), which means that they now own this IP. And, since then, Python packaging has advanced, with uv taking the world by storm. This means that it's time for a refresh. Can we use uv instead of Poetry? And can we solve a Wordle instead of a Sudoku? For the impatient: you can get the solver from my GitHub.

How Let's Encrypt made the internet safer and HTTPS standard - and free

KTSDESIGN/Getty Images In 1996, I registered my first website, Vaughan-Nichols & Associates. After setting up the site, one of the first things I did was to secure connections with a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificate. The then-new security network protocol provided an encrypted connection and a digital certificate that authenticates a website's identity. SSL was then, and is now, the minimum security a safe website should provide to its users. The protocol was also a major pain to set up

Bitcoin Bought in 2011 Suddenly Springs to Life After 13 Million Percent Increase In Value

Two Bitcoin wallets that remained untouched for more than a decade just sprang back to life — and whoever owns them is now filthy rich in crypto. As MarketWatch reports, each Bitcoin was worth just 78 cents back when the unknown buyer purchased 20,000 tokens in 2011 for just under $16,000. Due to the digital currency's inexorable rise over the subsequent years, the extremely patient owner of the two "Sleeping Beauty" wallets where the Bitcoin was stored now holds more than $2 billion worth — a
