Supermicro server motherboards can be infected with unremovable malware

Servers running on motherboards sold by Supermicro contain high-severity vulnerabilities that can allow hackers to remotely install malicious firmware that runs even before the operating system, making infections impossible to detect or remove without unusual protections in place. One of the two vulnerabilities is the result of an incomplete patch Supermicro released in January, said Alex Matrosov, founder and CEO of Binarly, the security firm that discovered it. He said that the insufficient f

Toothpaste made with keratin may protect and repair damaged teeth: study

The King’s College London team of scientists discovered that keratin produces a protective coating that mimics the structure and function of natural enamel when it comes into contact with minerals in saliva. In a new study published today, scientists discovered that keratin, a protein found in hair, skin and wool, can repair tooth enamel and stop early stages of decay. Unlike bones and hair, enamel does not regenerate, once it is lost, it’s gone forever. Acidic foods and drinks, poor oral hyg

Cannibal Modernity: Oswald de Andrade's Manifesto Antropófago (1928)

Perhaps a more revealing aspect of the Manifesto was the claim that: “Before the Portuguese discovered Brazil, Brazil had discovered happiness.” This statement conferred a local imprimatur on a vision that applied, and perhaps still applies, in Europe and North America of far-off Brazil as a kind of natural and human paradise, a place not only abundant, tropical, and permissive, but also one where race has become unimportant — a fantasy, of course, but one worth holding on to. In the same year a

Why I do programming

This piece was inspired by this post by Aaron Boodman. I remember myself as a calm, quiet kid, happiest when I had a bunch of wires in my hands. My parents used to give them to me as toys along with a screwdriver and an old cassette player I could take apart and try to put back together. I was three years old. I didn’t know what I was doing, but I loved the feeling of exploring the insides of a machine, trying to understand how it works. In first grade, I was introduced to MS-DOS and Logo with

Who has the fastest F1 website (2021)

I once spent an hour creating an F1 lights-out reaction test which went viral and was even played by F1 drivers. That sounds like a brag, and it kinda is, but now whenever I pour days or even weeks of work into something, it just seems so inefficient compared to that time I spent an hour on something that went big. Wait! You're not my therapist! Let's look at another F1 website… This is part 3 in a multi-part series looking at the loading performance of F1 websites. Not interested in F1? It sho

Everything We Know About the Interstellar Object 3I/ATLAS

On July 2, NASA revealed the existence of 3I/ATLAS, only the third ever interstellar object observed in the universe. These are objects that exist in interstellar space—the areas between stars—and which are not gravitationally bound to any star. The two other interstellar objects discovered to date are the comets 1I/ʻOumuamua and 2I/Borisov. 3I/ATLAS was discovered on July 1, when its existence was reported by a telescope at Rio Hurtado in Chile, operated by the Asteroid Terrestrial Impact Aler

Explorers Discover First Pharaoh Tomb in Over 100 Years

A British-Egyptian team of researchers has discovered what it says is the first pharaoh's tomb in over a century. As the BBC reports, the team discovered the tomb of King Thutmose II in the Western valleys of the Theban Necropolis, near Luxor, Egypt. "It is an extraordinary moment for Egyptology and the broader understanding of our shared human story," said Egypt's minister of tourism and antiquities Sherif Fathy in a statement. It must've been an extremely moving moment for everybody involve
