Cosmic simulations that once needed supercomputers now run on a laptop

If you think a galaxy is big, compare it to the size of the Universe: it's just a tiny dot which, together with a huge number of other tiny dots, forms clusters that aggregate into superclusters, which in turn weave into filaments threaded with voids -- an immense 3D skeleton of our Universe. If that gives you vertigo and you're wondering how one can understand or even "see" something so vast, the answer is: it isn't easy. Scientists combine the physics of the Universe with data from astronomic

A Cyberattack on Jaguar Land Rover Is Causing a Supply Chain Disaster

For almost three weeks, the production lines at global car giant Jaguar Land Rover have stood still. Usually busy turning out an estimated 1,000 vehicles per day, staff at multiple JLR factories across Britain have been told to stay at home as the automotive firm responds to a damaging cyberattack. But as its recovery has stretched from days to weeks, the knock-on impacts are being felt at the hundreds of companies that supply JLR with parts and materials and risk turning the attack into a full-

JRL is a standalone entity under Tata Motors India, following its acquisition from Ford in 2008.

When will Jaguar Land Rover restart production? “No one actually knows.”

Jaguar Land Rover’s dealers and suppliers fear the British carmaker’s operations will take another few months to normalize after a cyber attack that experts estimate could wipe more than £3.5 billion off its revenue. JLR, which is owned by India’s Tata Motors, had been forced to shut down its systems and halt production across its UK factories since August 31, wreaking havoc across the country’s vast supply chain involving roughly 200,000 workers. JLR on Tuesday said it would extend its produc

Jaguar Land Rover confirms data theft after recent cyberattack

Jaguar Land Rover admits hackers may have taken data

Jaguar Land Rover admits hackers may have taken data The affected plants in the UK are not expected to restart until Thursday at the earliest and worldwide production of around 1,000 vehicles a day has been halted. Now, 11 days after the attack , it has conceded that some data has been impacted but declined to say exactly who the information pertained to, such as customers, suppliers or JLR itself.

Forget Open Earbuds, It’s All About Open Headphones Now

I’m a big fan of open audio, but not everyone loves the earbud form factor. Despite how comfortable some of the entrants in the open-ear audio space may be—Bose’s Ultra Open Earbuds and Nothing’s Ear Open are particularly comfy—sometimes you just want a pair of more traditional over-ear headphones, whether for ergonomics or more stability on your head. The problem is, if you want to combine the two (headphones and open-ear audio, that is), you’re not exactly flush with options. JLab, however, pl

Jaguar Land Rover says cyberattack ‘severely disrupted’ production

Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) announced that a cyberattack forced the company to shut down certain systems as part of the mitigation effort. Although the incident appears to have a significant impact on the automakers’ production and retail operations, the short statement published on the official website noted that customer data is most likely unaffected. “JLR has been impacted by a cyber incident. We took immediate action to mitigate its impact by proactively shutting down our systems,” reads the

Solving the Nostr web clients attack vector

Aug 9 2025 Solving the Nostr web clients attack vector One problem Nostr still has to deal with is the fact that web clients are "owned" by someone, because they rely so much on the domain name they're served from.
