“It’s a heist”: Senator calls out Texas for trying to steal shuttle from Smithsonian

A political effort to remove space shuttle Discovery from the Smithsonian and place it on display in Texas encountered some pushback on Thursday, as a US senator questioned the expense of carrying out what he described as a theft. "This is not a transfer. It's a heist," said Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) during a budget markup hearing before the Senate Appropriations Committee. "A heist by Texas because they lost a competition 12 years ago." In April, Republican Sens. John Cornyn and Ted Cruz, bot

It's summer -- you've got better things to do than babysit a sink full of dirty silverware. But before you start stacking every spatula and chef's knife onto the racks, take a beat. Your dishwasher's high heat and aggressive cycles can do more harm than good to certain kitchen tools. Warping, rusting, cracking and dulling are all fair game -- e

Is Gemini 2.5 good at bounding boxes?

Is Gemini 2.5 good at bounding boxes? Sort of... July 10, 2025 TL;DR Gemini 2.5 Pro is a decent object detector, matching Yolo V3 from 2018 on MS-COCO val.

How to prove false statements: Practical attacks on Fiat-Shamir

Randomness is a source of power. From the coin toss that decides which team gets the ball to the random keys that secure online interactions, randomness lets us make choices that are fair and impossible to predict. But in many computing applications, suitable randomness can be hard to generate. So instead, programmers often rely on things called hash functions, which swirl data around and extract some small portion in a way that looks random. For decades, many computer scientists have presumed

This Fact About Netflix's 'Poop Cruise' Still Haunts Me

It's not often a popular film on a streaming platform is heavily peppered with the phrase "it was raining sewage," but that's one of the joys-slash-horrors of Netflix's Trainwreck: Poop Cruise documentary. The movie is part of the platform's Trainwreck franchise, which focuses on real-life media sensations, news stories and controversial public figures, and for two weeks running, the flick has been in Netflix's Top 10, debuting at No. 2 (yes, No. 2) in its first week before sliding down to No. 6

This tool strips away anti-AI protections from digital art

To be clear, the researchers behind LightShed aren’t trying to steal artists’ work. They just don’t want people to get a false sense of security. “You will not be sure if companies have methods to delete these poisons but will never tell you,” says Hanna Foerster, a PhD student at the University of Cambridge and the lead author of a paper on the work. And if they do, it may be too late to fix the problem. AI models work, in part, by implicitly creating boundaries between what they perceive as d
