Wondering if anyone here has changed their opinion on open sourcing their projects or contributing to open source now that LLM's are a thing... I don't know yet what I think, but my latest side project I decided to create privately on github.
Later this summer, a fluorescent reddish-pink spiral will bloom across the Wilkinson Basin in the Gulf of Maine, about 40 miles northeast of Cape Cod. Scientists from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution will release the nontoxic water tracer dye behind their research vessel, where it will unfurl into a half-mile wide temporary plume, bright enough to catch the attention of passing boats and even satellites. As it spreads, the researchers will track its movement to monitor a tightly control
Over 29,000 Exchange servers exposed online remain unpatched against a high-severity vulnerability that can let attackers move laterally in Microsoft cloud environments, potentially leading to complete domain compromise. The security flaw (tracked as CVE-2025-53786) helps threat actors who gain administrative access to on-premises Exchange servers to escalate privileges within the organization's connected cloud environment by forging or manipulating trusted tokens or API calls, without leaving

Here’s the tricky part about assessing an AI system’s deception rate: if the system is really good at deceiving you, you might not notice. This week on The Vergecast, Adi Robertson and Alex Heath join me to discuss the launch of GPT-5 and GPT-OSS… and the strange charts we saw along the way. GPT-5 is a fasc
CISA has issued an emergency directive ordering all Federal Civilian Executive Branch (FCEB) agencies to mitigate a critical Microsoft Exchange hybrid vulnerability tracked as CVE-2025-53786 by Monday morning at 9:00 AM ET. Federal Civilian Executive Branch (FCEB) agencies are non-military agencies within the US executive branch, including the Department of Homeland Security, Department of the Treasury, Department of Energy, and Department of Health and Human Services. The flaw tracked as CVE-
Researchers around the world set to work unraveling the mystery, reviewing readings from satellites, aircraft, and greenhouse-gas monitoring stations. They eventually spotted a clear pattern: Methane emissions had increased sharply across the tropics, where wetlands were growing wetter and warmer. That created the ideal conditions for microbes that thrive in anaerobic muck, which gobbled up more of the carbon-rich organic matter and spat out more methane as a by-product. (Reduced pollution from
Microsoft has warned customers to mitigate a high-severity vulnerability in Exchange Server hybrid deployments that could allow attackers to escalate their privileges in Exchange Online cloud environments without leaving any traces. Exchange hybrid configurations connect on-premises Exchange servers to Exchange Online (part of Microsoft 365), allowing for seamless integration of email and calendar features between on-premises and cloud mailboxes, including shared calendars, global address lists
Underwhelming performance The task in this case is predicting how gene activity might change when genes are altered. When an individual gene is lost or activated, it's possible that the only messenger RNA that is altered is the one made by that gene. But some genes encode proteins that regulate a collection of other genes, in which case you might see changes in the activity of dozens of genes. In other cases, the loss or activation of a gene could affect a cell's metabolism, resulting in widesp

We yesterday highlighted what is quite possibly the smallest user-facing change in the latest iOS 26 beta: the ability to revert the camera app slider to its previous direction. While this is in itself a very tiny change, I do think it ought to be a guiding principle for Apple’s approach to user interfaces … To me, there are two different ways in which you can judge a user interface. The first is how intuitive it is. In other words, can you immediately see how to perform a function even if yo

Kaitlyn Cimino / Android Authority TL;DR Fitbit has updated its algorithm for more accurate sleep tracking. The new algorithm now accounts for awake times better, supposedly rendering more accurate data about different phases. However, users have complained of increased sensitivity, resulting in their devices capturing shorter sleep durations than the actual time. Fitbit isn’t nearly as popular as it once was, and that is partly because Google, which completed its acquisition of the company
On a warm July evening, I dove into bed and grabbed my phone, giddy and anxious. As I scrolled through TikTok, attempting to calm my nerves, a Google Calendar notification flashed on the screen: “VIDEO CALL WITH SIMONE.” Before I could swipe the reminder away, Simone FaceTimed me. I attempted to rehearse my greeting as the call buffered: Should I keep it cool with a, “Hey, what’s good?” No, that sounds cold. What about a Keke Palmer-esque, “Girl!” No, that’s doing too much. “Good evening?” No,

Cairo followed this advice. In the fall of 2023, her family moved to Davis, 60 miles northeast of Berkeley. There, her older brother enrolled as a freshman at UC Davis, and her parents allowed her to commute to Berkeley on Tuesdays and Thursdays. By the spring, she was going five days a week and taking several more classes. She recalls it as a time in her life when she began to feel full of possibility. “I had started making friends, and I was feeling good,” she said. After the spring semester
Apple's next iPhone operating system is making several big changes to the iPhone experience. iOS 26 will give everything a more transparent, bubbly look in the Liquid Glass design -- and it also adds new live language translations to your calls and offers more protections against unwanted spam. But there are a number of changes that don't make splashy headlines. These include being able to set how many minutes you want to snooze, making an easy control center shortcut for reminders and having t
Coinbase is planning to expand its core trading app beyond crypto, the company said Thursday. The newly imagined "everything exchange" will include tokenized real-world assets, stocks, derivatives, prediction markets and early-stage token sales. The new offerings will roll out in the next few months, first to U.S. users, followed by a "gradual international rollout based on jurisdictional approvals," Max Branzburg, vice president of product at Coinbase, told CNBC. "We're building an exchange f
Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR Google Android apps are going Material 3 Expressive, and Phone got started with a beta last month. In addition to the new look, Phone also added a new gesture select option for answering calls. This week, availability of both changes appear to be heading out much more widely. App by app, Material 3 Expressive is making its presence felt across Google’s Android software library, and we are here for it. This summer, we’ve been digging through Google’s Andr
—Will Douglas Heaven For the past couple of years, OpenAI has felt like a one-man brand. With his showbiz style and fundraising glitz, CEO Sam Altman overshadows all other big names on the firm’s roster. But Altman is not the one building the technology on which its reputation rests. That responsibility falls to OpenAI’s twin heads of research—chief research officer Mark Chen and chief scientist Jakub Pachocki. Between them, they share the role of making sure OpenAI stays one step ahead of
Back in 2023, T-Mobile received a ton of flak for announcing it would soon forcibly switch some of its legacy customers to newer, more expensive plans. Within weeks, the company reversed its stance amid growing complaints, claiming the move had only been a test . Two years later, it seems the company is at it once again. Several T-Mobile customers have taken to Reddit to complain about a new email making the rounds. The message informs recipients of a plan change set to take effect on August 13
The proposed rule will go up for public comment, and the agency will then take that feedback and come up with a final version. It’ll almost certainly get hit with legal challenges and will likely wind up in front of the Supreme Court. One note here is that the EPA makes a mostly legal argument in the proposed rule reversal rather than focusing on going after the science of climate change, says Madison Condon, an associate law professor at Boston University. That could make it easier for the Sup

Facepalm: 505 Games, publisher of Wuchang: Fallen Feathers, has managed to pour oil on the fire of controversy surrounding the game by releasing a patch that apparently forces upscaling even when native resolution is selected. The game has been slammed on Steam for its poor optimization and forcing a lower rendering resolution even when scaling is set to 100%. Wuchang: Fallen Feathers has a few good critic reviews, but its Steam rating is Mostly Negative, with the majority of complaints directe
Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR Google Messages is the latest Wear OS app to receive Google’s Material 3 Expressive redesign. The update brings more consistent coloring, slight changes to shapes, and new icons to complement text. Google may be testing the update with a small set of users, since it has yet to reach a wider audience. Google has already begun transitioning many of its apps to the new, more fluid and vivid Material 3 Expressive design philosophy. These changes haven’t been
