New Koske Linux malware hides in cute panda images

bleepingcomputer.com Unknown 2025-08-02 09:54:10

A new Linux malware named Koske may have been developed with artificial intelligence and is using seemingly benign JPEG images of panda bears to deploy malware directly into system memory. Researchers from cybersecurity company AquaSec analyzed Koske and described it as "a sophhisticated Linux threat." Based on the observed adaptive behavior, the researchers believe that the malware was developed using large language models (LLMs) or automation frameworks. Koske’s purpose is to deploy CPU and

Working on a Programming Language in the Age of LLMs

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-07-30 10:12:30

I’ve been working on Rye since 2018. It’s a project of joy — but also because I believe there is a potential to create something of value to others, eventually. Even people living under a rock know we’ve entered the age of LLMs. I don’t jump to ships too soon, but eventually, even I had to admit: code can get generated from prompts. And in many situations — with a smart prompter — the results are quite OK. Even if you disagree, genie can’t be put back in the bottle. Technical progress generall

You might not need a Python class

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-08-02 08:41:09

Python is an incredibly versatile programming language known for its simplicity and readability. Among its features, the ability to use classes for object-oriented programming is both powerful and frequently recommended. However, classes aren’t always the best solution. In many cases, Python’s built-in types, functions, and standard library modules provide simpler, cleaner alternatives.

Mysterious Whale Makes a 17,000,000% Profit on a 14-Year-Old Bitcoin Bet

gizmodo.com Bruce Gil 2025-08-02 09:20:37

Several Bitcoin whales—investors who hold large amounts of the cryptocurrency — have recently started cashing out after leaving their Bitcoin untouched for more than a decade. Last week, one anonymous whale sold 80,000 Bitcoin for a whopping $9.5 billion. A user on X (formerly Twitter) first flagged the massive transaction, which was later reported by Tom’s Hardware. The seller had originally purchased the Bitcoin in 2011 for just $54,000, netting a staggering return of more than 17 million per

gizmodo.com Kyle Barr 2025-08-02 09:30:17

Gaming on Mac has come a long way, but if people are going to take it seriously—like, really seriously—Apple still has some work to do. The new public beta for macOS 26 and its gaming updates won’t convince the naysayers, but I see it as the tipping point, and all Apple needs to do is relax for once and let the players take control. For macOS 26, Apple added a new Game Overlay and Games app. The former acts as an easy way to adjust brightness, volume, or call friends while in-game. It also has

No honest person can resist the attraction of Pokemon Gold. That's why Pokemon TCG Pocket's Wisdom of Sea and Sky expansion set is going all in on generation two when it arrives on July 29. This set will be one of the game's larger offerings, featuring more than 200 cards. I'm sure that has the most ravenous collectors breathing a sigh of relief, since the past two expansions -- Eevee Grove and Extradimensional Crisis -- have both had smaller complimentary card lists to build on Celestial Guard

Trump’s order to make chatbots anti-woke is unconstitutional, senator says

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-08-02 07:21:52

The CEOs of every major artificial intelligence company received letters Wednesday urging them to fight Donald Trump's anti-woke AI order. Trump's executive order requires any AI company hoping to contract with the federal government to jump through two hoops to win funding. First, they must prove their AI systems are "truth-seeking"—with outputs based on "historical accuracy, scientific inquiry, and objectivity" or else acknowledge when facts are uncertain.

Hackers—hope to defect to Russia? Don’t Google “defecting to Russia.”

To the casual observer, cybercriminals can look like swashbuckling geniuses. They possess technical skills formidable enough to penetrate the networks of the biggest companies on the planet. They cover their tracks using technology that is arcane to most people—VPNs, encrypted chat apps, onion routing, aliases in dark web forums. They talk trash, extorting corporate ransoms in cryptocurrency, and they aim high, not flinching even at the prospect of stealing data on US presidential candidates.
