The sapphire sea at Mamallapuram still shines under the sun, with astonishing sculptures of gods, goddesses, and animals carved on the rocks behind. In the heyday of the Pallava dynasty, Mamallapuram was a bustling seaport, with ships carrying goods like textiles, spices, and gold to Southeast Asia. William Dalrymple’s ‘The Golden Road’ challenges the traditional […]
The task of converting DC voltages involves complex terminology and math, but the operation is not difficult to understand. Traditional methods such as resistor-based voltage dividers are common in hobbyist projects. An improved method using a transistor-based voltage follower can be more efficient, while feedback mechanisms can further enhance linear regulators. Switched-mode regulators, like charge […]
Research by Civo reveals that over half of VMware customers may leave the platform under Broadcom’s ownership. CEO Mark Boost criticized Broadcom’s strategy of imposing price hikes on smaller accounts while relying on bigger customers. Many VMware users are unhappy with the changes, leading to consideration of alternative cloud providers, with concerns about pricing, security, […]
The AWS AI Stack is a comprehensive boilerplate project that offers a serverless architecture for building AI applications on AWS. It provides access to powerful LLM models through Bedrock while keeping app data separate from model providers. The stack includes features like AI chat, authentication services, business logic, and more, all running on AWS Lambda, […]
The author discusses a disclosure for an OpenSSH keystroke obfuscation bypass affecting versions after 9.4 and delves into the impact of keystroke latency analysis on SSH sessions. While measures were introduced to mitigate attacks, the author found a way to bypass these measures and notified developers, receiving initial responses but ultimately no resolution. The author […]
Neil Emmett discusses the iconic character Max Headroom, originally portrayed by actor Matt Frewer but mistaken for genuine computer animation due to the crew’s creative use of makeup, costumes, and visual effects. The innovative techniques used to fake computer animation, such as deliberate faults and hand-drawn emulations, are highlighted, showcasing the ingenuity of analog work […]
David Chang emphasizes the importance of maintaining fine dining standards even in a casual restaurant setting. He discusses the challenge of motivating kitchen staff to take the long, hard, stupid way in order to uphold personal integrity. Chang shares a story about his restaurant Majordomo, where his team suggests cooking a “presentation chicken” to streamline […]
Researchers have found a way to safely and rapidly rewarm frozen tissues using magnetic nanoparticles for potential organ transplants, reducing the risk of damage during transportation. This innovative technique, called nanowarming, involves applying magnetic fields to thaw tissues stored at extremely low temperatures without causing overheating or toxicity. By controlling the distribution and heating rates […]
Apple Watch Ammeter allows you to turn your Apple Watch or any watch with a magnetometer into a device that can measure DC currents. With the magnetometer found in Apple Watches newer than Series 5, this demonstration uses a coil of wire wrapped around the watch to manipulate the magnetic field sensed. By calculating the […]
