UUIDv47: Store UUIDv7 in DB, emit UUIDv4 outside (SipHash-masked timestamp)

UUIDv47 - UUIDv7-in / UUIDv4-out (SipHash-masked timestamp) uuidv47 lets you store sortable UUIDv7 in your database while emitting a UUIDv4-looking façade at your API boundary. It does this by XOR-masking only the UUIDv7 timestamp field with a keyed SipHash-2-4 stream tied to the UUID’s own random bits. Header-only C (C89) · zero deps Deterministic, invertible mapping (exact round-trip) RFC-compatible version/variant bits (v7 in DB, v4 on the wire) Key-recovery resistant (SipHash-2-4, 128-b

I can’t wait for Samsung and Google to copy this revolutionary iPhone 17 feature

Joe Maring / Android Authority Every Apple event, be it WWDC or the new iPhone launch, brings me a set of confusing thoughts. There’s a lot of mockery over what Apple has decided to copy innovate and their random announcements that no one asked for (hello, iPhone Air), but also a bit of jealousy-slash-awe at Apple’s pull over the entire phone industry. I see that new front-facing camera, and I know many Android brands are now scrambling to copy it in 2026; it’ll easily be the new gold standard

Cillian Murphy Is Flattered Everyone Thought He Would Play an Emaciated Zombie in ’28 Years Later’

As soon as the teaser trailer for 28 Years Later dropped, pretty much everyone and their mom assumed the skinny zombie seen struggling through flowers looked uncannily like Cillian Murphy’s Jim, the franchise’s original main character from director Danny Boyle and Alex Garland‘s 2002 28 Days Later. The internet sleuths swiftly discovered the likeness was pure serendipity, but the Oscar-winning actor now says he was touched that fans had assumed the emaciated undead wanderer was him. In an inter

Inverting the Xorshift128 random number generator

CVE-2025-7783 is a very recent vulnerability affecting a lot of applications in the Node.js ecosystem including those which use axios or the deprecated request library. In all honesty, this vulnerability is really an edge case that is extremely unlikely to be exploited: it is dependent upon a number of events that are not normally present. One of those events is the attacker having access to five consecutive outputs of JavaScript Math.random( ) , which allows the attacker to predict future outpu

Are you ready for 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple trailer?

Fans of the 28 Days Later franchise were thrilled to finally get a follow-up this year with 28 Years Later—and they weren't disappointed. Sony Pictures has already wrapped filming on a sequel: 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, slated for release early next year and directed by Nia DaCosta. The first trailer just dropped and the film looks as grimly compelling as its predecessor, while hopefully also retaining something of the 2025 film's heart. (Spoilers for 28 Years Later below.) As previously

The First Trailer for ’28 Years Later: The Bone Temple’ Expands the Zombie-Infested World

If the first trailer for 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple was just the words “Aren’t you excited you only had to wait three months to see this footage?” it would be enough. The fact is, in modern Hollywood, it’s incredibly rare for a movie to come out in June and for its sequel to be heading to theaters six months later, in January. But that’s what happened with 28 Years Later and its sequel, 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, which will be out January 16, 2026. And, lucky for us, the trailer is mu

The best silent mouse of 2025: Expert tested and reviewed

Over the last several months, I've been testing several silent mice options for consideration on this list. The HP 280 is my ultimate sleeper pick for the best overall silent mouse for several reasons. It is super affordable at just $25 but is designed to offer the comfort of much pricier vertical ergonomic options. I have long fingers and a larger hand, so I tend to prefer mice with a little more wrist support and a dedicated grip. The 280 features both and is one of the comfiest I've worked w

Optimizing My Disk Usage Program

In my previous post, Maybe the Fastest Disk Usage Program on macOS, I wrote about dumac. A very fast alternative to du -sh that uses a macOS-specific syscall getattrlistbulk to be much faster than the next leading disk usage program.

The end is near for flagships with a meagre 128GB storage

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR The upcoming iPhone 17 Pro may start at 256GB of internal storage, eliminating the older 128GB option. A $50 price increase is expected alongside the bumped-up base storage tier. Apple’s move could pressure remaining Android flagships, such as the Galaxy S and Pixel lineups, to ditch low-storage models and finally start at 256GB. Android flagships have long moved to higher storage options, with many offering as much as 1TB of storage. While external stora

Bad news for anyone eagerly awaiting the iPad Fold

Alongside an iPhone Fold expected to launch next year, Apple has long been reported to be working on a foldable iPad with an 18.8-inch display. There have, however, been very different estimates of the timeline for the product – and the latest report isn’t good news. Estimates have so far ranged from late next year to sometime in 2028, and an analyst who previously expected a 2026 unveiling has now changed his mind … iPad Fold with 18.8-inch display Reports of the device date back to 2022, wh

Dropbox says it’s time to find a new password manager as it prepares to shut down service

It’s been well-documented that director Danny Boyle used many iPhone 15 Pro Max models to

Did someone just get caught using the iPhone 17 Pro in the wild?

Here’s one to take with a grain of salt: earlier today, user Fox Puppy on X published a couple of photos that supposedly show someone filming an iPhone 17 Pro on the street, using an iPhone 16 Pro that, for some reason, has its Apple logo covered. ‘This looks legit’ While there’s no way to verify the claims, Fox Puppy says that one of the people accompanying the man filming “was security and trying to go in front of the iPhone to hide it.” Here’s the original post: I just spotted a test deve

Zombie Dong Will Return in ’28 Years Later: The Bone Temple’

Two topics of conversation dominated the opening weekend of Danny Boyle’s new film, 28 Years Later. One, that wild ending that introduced a seemingly out-of-place controversial new character. And two was the sheer amount, and size, of the penises seen in the film. Throughout 28 Years Later, the Rage virus-infected zombies that run around the mainland are all naked. As one would be if you’d been running around killing people as a zombie for 30 years. That means, yes, there’s lots of nudity in th
