Dozens of Beaches Contaminated By Fecal Matter Over Labor Day Holiday

gizmodo.com Riley Gutiérrez Mcdermid 2025-10-25 17:52:04

Millions of Americans heading to the shore for the holiday weekend are encountering warning signs instead of waves. From New England to California, public health officials have flagged dozens of beaches for high levels of fecal bacteria, urging swimmers to stay out of the water. The advisories, affecting coastal stretches in Massachusetts, New York, California and even Hawaii, cite unsafe concentrations of E. coli and enterococci, bacteria linked to sewage and storm runoff.

Sony just locked one of the best Xperia features behind a paywall

Sony TL;DR Sony has recently updated its Monitor & Control app, which lets you control your Sony camera using a smartphone. With the update, Sony is locking high-resolution monitoring over USB behind a paywall. This update also limits USB video feeds to top-tier Sony Xperia phones. Sony’s Xperia lineup is not the first choice for most smartphone buyers.

Poll: Were you affected by Verizon’s service outage over the weekend?

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-10-26 06:42:37

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority Verizon had a very eventful August, thanks mainly to the unpopular decision to cut loyalty discounts. The company had to resort to damage control by offering new discounts instead of the old ones, but some customers felt tricked into accepting lower discounts. If you were willing to look past all of this, the carrier just bounced back after a rough weekend where it suffered a service outage. Don’t want to miss the best from Android Authority?

It appears that it was US military communications doctrine to not send the exact same message twice using different encryption ("none" counting as one type of encryption), and the term of art for changing a message to avoid that was indeed "paraphrase". I managed to dig up a US Army document on Cryptology from roughly that era that appears to discuss paraphrasing.

Why countries trade with each other while fighting

In World War II, Britain was fighting for its survival against German aerial bombardment. Yet Britain was importing dyes from Germany at the same time. This sounds curious, to put it mildly. How can two countries at war with each other also be trading goods? Examples of this abound, actually. Britain also traded with its enemies for almost all of World War I. India and Pakistan conducted trade with each other during the First Kashmir War, from 1947 to 1949, and during the India-Pakistan War of

While there’s plenty to unpack with the Pixel 10 series and its new Tensor G5 processor, one of the biggest hardware changes this year is the adoption of a brand new GPU architecture.

Specifically, the PowerVR DXT-48-1536, but without the ray-tracing capabilities that the series can support.

Spacing Over Cards

This post is a rationalisation of “I don’t like cards”. I say that in most cases where cards are used, they don’t need to be used. Specifically, they take space, they let you skip gestalt principles and be lazy and undisciplined, and being so easy to implement they are often used by developers. To multiply the effect, you can put a card into a card, and it seems so hard not to do so. We recognise patterns.

In 2001, quantum computers factored the number 15. It’s now 2025, and quantum computers haven’t yet factored the number 21. It’s sometimes claimed this is proof there’s been no progress in quantum computers. But there’s actually a much more surprising reason 21 hasn’t been factored yet, which jumps out at you when contrasting the operations used to factor 15 and to factor 21.
