Boring is good

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-09-23 13:51:27

The initial, feverish enthusiasm for large language models (LLMs) is beginning to cool, and for good reason. It’s time to trade the out-of-control hype for a more pragmatic, even “boring,” approach. A recent MIT report shows that 95% of companies implementing this technology have yet to see a positive outcome. It’s understandable to feel confused. When I get confused, I write. This is why I wrote the first part of this series, Hype is a Business Tool as the online debate had become so overheate

One Token to rule them all – Obtaining Global Admin in every Entra ID tenant

news.ycombinator.com Dirk-Jan Mollema 2025-09-25 16:03:21

While preparing for my Black Hat and DEF CON talks in July of this year, I found the most impactful Entra ID vulnerability that I will probably ever find. This vulnerability could have allowed me to compromise every Entra ID tenant in the world (except probably those in national cloud deployments). If you are an Entra ID admin reading this, yes that means complete access to your tenant.

The Digital Version of ‘Twilight Imperium’ Will Save You So Much Clean Up Time

Twilight Imperium has had a rep for endurance almost since it was first introduced. A dense tabletop experience of spacebound strategy, it’s become the face of marathon-length board gaming as players spend hours after hours dictating their space operatic maneuvers through the medium of many, many, many little tokens and cards being shuffled and passed around the board. So, good news for people who’ve always been interested but daunted by those occasionally tall tales of just what an effort it ev

Meta’s Ray-Bans are back with a new generation, and this time they’re finally giving people the one thing they really want—a screen. At Meta’s annual Connect developer conference, the company officially took the wraps off its Meta Ray-Ban Display, which are, as the name suggests, its first pair of AI-infused smart glasses to come with a full-color in-lens display.

Meta Ray-Ban Display Hands-On: The Smart Glasses You Were Waiting For

There’s one thing people want to know when they see my first-gen Ray-Ban smart glasses, and it’s got nothing to do with AI, or cameras, or the surprisingly great open-ear audio they put out. They want to know what’s probably front-of-mind right now as you’re reading this: Do they have a screen in them? The answer? Sadly, no… until now.

Ray-Ban wasn’t the only collaboration that got some shine at Meta Connect. The company also took the wraps (no pun intended) off a pair of wraparound shades designed by Oakley and, like its recently released HSTN smart glasses, designed more with sporty types in mind. Outside of the differing glasses shape, the $499 Meta Oakley Meta Vanguard (yes, that’s the official name in that order) specs also have a centered camera that’s meant to be better suited for capturing footage during “action” spor

Meta's Oakley Vanguard Sports Glasses Tried to Turn Me Into Xtreme Sports Guy

Jogging on a treadmill in jeans at Meta's Menlo Park campus when it's nearly 80 degrees isn't my idea of a good time. But I was curious what Meta's new wraparound smart shades, and a Garmin sports watch, would do for me. I couldn't see workout stats floating in front of my eyes, not yet at least, but I could ask for my heart rate on demand. AirPods can do that, too. But AirPods can't record my POV exercise highlight video with overlaid stats for showing off later. The new Meta Oakley Vanguard

Thicker than regular Meta Ray-Bans, they reminded me of something filmmaker Martin Scorsese would wear. They were stylish, with a sort of translucent-ish brown frame.

I stood in Gordon Ramsay's absolutely lovely kitchen and stared at the Smeg toaster on his polished counters. I admired the windows to the garden, the jukebox in the corner and the adjoining open living room. I tried to walk in the living room and hit a VR barrier. That's where the scan ended. Gordon's home was a Quest-made 3D scan, a still-life of his lovely LA abode.
