SDS: Simple Dynamic Strings library for C

Simple Dynamic Strings Notes about version 2: this is an updated version of SDS in an attempt to finally unify Redis, Disque, Hiredis, and the stand alone SDS versions. This version is NOT binary compatible* with SDS verison 1, but the API is 99% compatible so switching to the new lib should be trivial. Note that this version of SDS may be a slower with certain workloads, but uses less memory compared to V1 since header size is dynamic and depends to the string to alloc. Moreover it includes

FEMA Staffers Warned of Looming ‘Katrina-Level’ Disaster, Then Got Suspended

It’s been 20 years since Hurricane Katrina slammed into the U.S. Gulf Coast, killing nearly 1,400 people and displacing up to 1.2 million more. The storm’s impact overwhelmed the Federal Emergency Management Agency, revealing fatal flaws in its disaster response. The agency’s failure prompted Congress to overhaul FEMA largely through the ​​Post-Katrina Emergency Management Reform Act (PKEMRA). This set higher expectations for its leaders and enhanced its autonomy within the Department of Homela

How to slow down a program and why it can be useful

Most research on programming language performance asks a variation of a single question: how can we make some specific program faster? Sometimes we may even investigate how we can use less memory. This means a lot of research focuses solely on reducing the amount of resources needed to achieve some computational goal. So, why on earth might we be interested in slowing down programs then? Slowing Down Programs is Surprisingly Useful! Making programs slower can be useful to find race conditions

Online Age Verification Rules Are Popping Up Everywhere. Here's What You Need to Know

The internet is full of perils -- this we know. Among the rich trove of content we have at our fingertips is a combination of legal material, illegal material and material that falls into a gray area -- often referred to in vague terms as "harmful." This is the kind of content that might be appropriate for anyone with a fully developed prefrontal cortex to view but that you wouldn't necessarily want your kids stumbling across. In the past, accessing such content has been easy, regardless of ag

Chris Roberts hopes Squadron 42 will be “almost as big” as GTA VI next year

The single-player Star Citizen spin-off Squadron 42 is slated to finally be in players' hands in 2026, 11 full years after its initial 2015 release target. And after all that time, Cloud Imperium Games CEO Chris Roberts says he's hopeful that the title will be received similarly to another 2026 release that happens to be possibly the most anticipated video game of all time: Grand Theft Auto VI. A recent report from France's La Presse (translated) suggests that Squadron 42's launch is being time

Anthropic’s auto-clicking AI Chrome extension raises browser-hijacking concerns

As AI assistants become capable of controlling web browsers, a new security challenge has emerged: users must now trust that every website they visit won't try to hijack their AI agent with hidden malicious instructions. Experts voiced concerns about this emerging threat this week after testing from a leading AI chatbot vendor revealed that AI browser agents can be successfully tricked into harmful actions nearly a quarter of the time. On Tuesday, Anthropic announced the launch of Claude for Ch

Eddy Cue wanted Apple to acquire two big companies, but Tim Cook said no

A report from The Information yesterday offered a variety of interesting details about Apple’s potential acquisition targets in the artificial intelligence category.

Apple, Tesla, and Netflix The report describes Eddy Cue as “one of the biggest advocates inside Apple

The best portable power stations for camping in 2025: Expert tested and reviewed

To figure this out, you're going to need to do some calculations and gather some information. First, you need to know what devices you are going to power. List them all, because forgetting that coffee pot or heated blanket could make the difference between the power station lasting all day, or giving up the ghost on you before the day is over. Specifically, you want to know how much power, in watts, each device draws. This information is usually found on a label on the device. For example, a h

New Group Claims AI May Be Aware and Suffering

For years, the concept of AI consciousness has remained on the fringes, with all but the most powerful proponents of the theory being laughed out of public life. In reality, opponents point out, the current generation of AI is nothing more than extremely complex statistics — detecting patterns in training data like written materials or imagery so subtle that it can reproduce similar patterns going forward. That can produce a compelling imitation of consciousness, but there's no reason to believ

Unlocking enterprise agility in the API economy

From CapEx to OpEx: The new connectivity mindset Another, practical concern is also driving this shift: the need for IT models that align cost with usage.
