Discovery of HMS Endeavor wreck confirmed

Back in 2022, we reported on the Australian National Maritime Museum's (ANMM) announcement that its researchers had confirmed that a shipwreck proposed as a likely candidate in 2018 is indeed the remains of the HMS Endeavour. However, the Rhode Island Marine Archaeology Project (RIMAP)—the museum's research partner in the project—promptly released a statement calling the announcement premature. RIMAP insisted that more evidence was needed. The final report is now available, and both RIMAP and A

How a data-processing problem at Lyft became the basis for Eventual

techcrunch.com Rebecca Szkutak 2025-10-06 22:00:00

When Eventual founders Sammy Sidhu and Jay Chia were working as software engineers at Lyft’s autonomous vehicle program, they witnessed a brewing data infrastructure problem — one that would only become larger with the rise of AI. Self-driving cars produce a ton of unstructured data from 3D scans and photos to text and audio. There wasn’t a tool for Lyft engineers that could understand and process all of those different types of data at the same time — and all in one place. This left engineers

Data-recovery firm tests $28, 500GB HDD from Amazon and gets surprising results

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-10-07 07:43:49

Fraudulent or misleading storage devices are, unfortunately, still easy to find via online marketplaces. It's also a common story that someone buys a shockingly cheap storage device from an unknown brand and ends up with a product that doesn’t perform as expected—or at all. With this in mind, data-recovery firm Secure Data Recovery recently bought a 500GB HDD from Amazon (the UnionSine HD2510) for $28 and tested it.

How Today’s Pentest Models Compare and Why Continuous Wins

As threat actors grow faster, stealthier, and more persistent, the approach to pentesting needs to keep evolving. Traditional, periodic assessments no longer keep up with rapidly changing attack surfaces. Static tests offer a snapshot, but attackers see a live stream. Security testing needs to shift testing models to mirror how real-world attackers operate.
