🔥 Read this must-read post from Hacker News đź“– đź“‚ **Category**: đź’ˇ **What You’ll Learn**: Even before Claude Mythos was announced, there were clear signs that the next era of CVEs would be found by AI models. Big Sleep found a zero-day vulnerability in SQLite, Microsoft Copilot found 20+ CVEs in bootloaders, and DARPA launched AIxCC to incentivize AI CVE discovery. Now, with models like Claude Mythos emerging, there are two major takeaways: we'll see a rapid acceleration in the rate of CVEs as AI models improve, and we'll detect more CVEs that have persisted through versions, evading researchers for…

Now, Porsche says it's pursuing a "technology open powertrain strategy" — corporate rhetoric that suggests the automaker will rely more heavily on other companies for…

✨ Discover this must-read post from Hacker News đź“– đź“‚ **Category**: âś… **What You’ll Learn**: I worked at a startup in Toledo called Heartland Information Services. We provided transcription services to some of the biggest hospitals in the United States, and we weren't small. Heartland was one of the larger medical transcription organizations in the country, one of the companies at the center of offshore transcription in that era. While that sounds simple enough, we were the kind of service where downtime had real consequences. Imagine needing emergency surgery but having to wait on a written copy of your procedure.…

Maps are fine for relatively small containers (say a few hundred or few thousand elements -- access to an element of a map of 10000 elements costs about 9 comparisons), where less-than is cheap, and where no good hash-function can be constructed. If you have lots of strings and a good hash function, use a hash table.

PC Engine CPU | jsgroth’s blog

🚀 Check out this awesome post from Hacker News đź“– đź“‚ **Category**: đź’ˇ **What You’ll Learn**: I’ve been working on a PC Engine emulator (aka TurboGrafx-16) after getting the bug to start looking at a new system, and I’ve found it to be pretty interesting hardware-wise. Originally released in 1987, its hardware is in a sort of awkward spot between the 3rd generation gaming conoles (NES, Sega Master System) and the 4th generation consoles (Genesis / Mega Drive, SNES), though it’s generally grouped with the latter due to featuring notably improved graphics over NES and SMS. It sold pretty well…
