Linking to text fragments with a bookmarklet One of my favourite features added to web browsers in the last few years is text fragments. Text fragments allow you to link directly to specific text on a web page, and some browsers will highlight the linked text – for example, by scrolling to it, or adding a coloured highlight. This is useful if I’m linking to a long page that doesn’t have linkable headings – I want it to be easy for readers to find the part of the page I was looking for. Here’s

So far, prompt injections have proved impossible to prevent, much like memory-corruption vulnerabilities in certain programming languages and SQL injections in Web applications are.

DACLab says it can remove CO2 using less electricity than many competitors

The world’s countries may have pledged to cut its carbon pollution, but with global emissions reaching an all-time high last year they’ve fallen far short. Digging out of that hole is going to require removing carbon straight from the atmosphere. But it comes with a hefty price tag, mostly because of the energy required. Removing one metric ton of CO 2 using direct air capture is expected to require around 2,000 kWh of electricity when the technology is sorted and scaled up. One startup called

Despite what they say about cats and water, jaguars are powerful swimmers. These predators rarely stray from the rivers and wetlands that permeate their rainforest habitat, and they readily dive in to hunt for prey. Usually, these dips are relatively brief: Until now, the farthest jaguar swim on record was just 656 feet (200 meters).
