What's a Heat Dome? The Scary Weather Phenomenon Is Making Things Hotter

cnet.com See Full Bio 2026-02-14 09:59:00

It's been a hot summer for a lot of areas already. As much as the heat here in upstate New York has me cooped up inside with the air conditioner blasting, it's nothing compared to other parts of the US now impacted by one of the summer's freakiest weather patterns: the heat dome. If that's a new phrase to you, keep reading and I'll break down what a heat dome is and what causes it, and for more help, read CNET's list of hacks for keeping your home cool in the summer.

Beyond the Hook: A Technical Deep Dive into Modern Phishing Methodologies

news.ycombinator.com Alexandre Nesic 2026-02-17 02:08:37

A technical exploration of modern phishing tactics, from basic HTML pages to advanced MFA-bypassing techniques, with analysis of infrastructure setup and delivery methods used by phishers in 2025. Introduction In 2025, phishing is still the most prevalent kind of cyber attack on the planet. Indeed, 1.2% of the global email traffic is phishing. That's 3.4 billion emails each day, but only a low number results in a compromise since "only" 3% of employees would click on a malicious link. However,

The time is right for a DOM templating API

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2026-02-20 09:23:28

TL;DR: I want to propose adding a declarative templating API to the web platform. Here's why... The web platform is the most successful application runtime of all time. While the largest reason for this is the web's reach, it wouldn't be possible without the DOM API, which turns a mostly static document viewer into a highly dynamic and expressive runtime. For as much hate as the DOM sometimes receives (some of that deserved, but some really not!) the DOM is undeniably a very powerful API. This

A new pyramid-like shape always lands the same side up

news.ycombinator.com Elise Cutts 2026-02-22 23:01:07

In 360 BCE, Plato envisioned the cosmos as an arrangement of five geometric shapes: flat-sided solids called polyhedra. These immediately became important objects of mathematical study. So it might be surprising that, millennia later, mysteries still surround even the simplest shape in Plato’s polyhedral universe: the tetrahedron, which has just four triangular faces. One major open problem, for instance, asks how densely you can pack “regular” tetrahedra, which have identical faces. Another as

New Veeam RCE flaw lets domain users hack backup servers

bleepingcomputer.com Unknown 2026-03-11 11:42:48

​Veeam has released security updates today to fix several Veeam Backup & Replication (VBR) flaws, including a critical remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability. Tracked as CVE-2025-23121, this security flaw was reported by security researchers at watchTowr and CodeWhite, and it only impacts domain-joined installations. As Veeam explained in a Tuesday security advisory, the vulnerability can be exploited by authenticated domain users in low-complexity attacks to gain code execution remotely on

Quantum upgrade makes random number generation fully traceable

techspot.com Alfonso Maruccia 2026-03-14 01:11:00

Trust, but verify: Random number generation is a serious matter in modern computing. Most systems rely on a purely hardware-based approach to RNG, but the process is essentially impossible to verify or trace. Now, a new quantum-based method developed by US researchers could offer a potential solution to this RNG puzzle. Physicists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology in Boulder, Colorado, have upgraded their previously developed quantum-based method for true random number gener

When random people give money to random other people (2017)

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2026-03-16 01:49:46

A post on Decision Science about a problem of Uri Wilensky‘s has been making the rounds: Imagine a room full of 100 people with 100 dollars each. With every tick of the clock, every person with money gives a dollar to one randomly chosen other person. After some time progresses, how will the money be distributed? People often expect the distribution to be close to uniform. But this isn’t right; the simulations in the post show clearly that inequality of wealth rapidly appears and then persists

Microsoft fixes unreachable Windows Server domain controllers

bleepingcomputer.com Unknown 2026-03-19 04:21:03

Microsoft has resolved a known issue that caused some Windows Server 2025 domain controllers to become unreachable after a restart and triggered app or service failures. As Redmond explained when it acknowledged the bug in April, servers loading the standard firewall profile instead of the domain firewall one after rebooting will have issues managing network traffic correctly. Because of this issue, services and applications running on impacted domain controller servers or remote devices may f
