Hear me out. If you are an organization with some spare storage and bandwidth, or an engineer looking to justify an overprovisioned homelab, you should consider running a Certificate Transparency log. It’s cheaper, easier, and more important than you might think. Certificate Transparency (CT) is one of the technologies that underpin the security of the whole web.

In January 1986, it was reprinted in English in Nature, The Electrician, Lancet, and BMJ. A lot of literature was written about XR’s in the months to follow.

The chemical secrets that help keep honey fresh for so long

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-12 06:04:41

But honey is an unusual case, and here is why. It's made by honeybees from flower nectar, and starts out as a warmish, watery, sugary fluid, the kind of thing that seems like it would be the purest bacteria bait. The bees concentrate the nectar on the way to the hive, removing some of the water, use enzymes to raise the acid content in the fluid discouraging some forms of microorganisms from growing, and break down the sugars into simpler ones, then decant the stuff into honeycomb chambers.

Over the weekend, the tally of measles cases reached 1,281, setting a new case record since the highly contagious viral disease was declared eliminated from the country in 2000.

Ancient skull may have been half human, half Neanderthal child

Back in 1929, archaeologists unearthed several human skeletons (seven adults and three children) while excavating Skuhl Cave just south of Haifa, Israel. Dating back 140,000 years to the end of the Middle Pleistocene, most were classified as early Homo sapiens. But one skeleton was that of a child, between the age of 3 and 5 years old whose features seemed to show a mix of early human and Neanderthal characteristics.

While a great part of it was fueled by the development of Nova (the new driver for GSP-based NVIDIA GPUs), and by AGX (the driver for the GPUs on Apple's M-series chip that preceded Nova), a few components were being worked on to cater to a then undisclosed driver that was being prototyped behind the scenes.
