When working with images and RGB color spaces, it’s common to encounter values outside the acceptable range of 0.0 to 1.0 or 0 to 255. These out-of-range colors need adjustment before encoding or displaying. The issue of dealing with colors beyond the gamut has long been researched, leading to techniques like tone mapping and gamut […]

Red Hat’s controversial decision to change how they distribute the source code for Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) sparked outrage across social media, with many questioning the future viability of downstream rebuilds like Rocky Linux and AlmaLinux. Despite backlash, Red Hat’s embrace of SELinux sets them apart from Debian, which relies on AppArmor with limited […]
Emerge is looking for someone to lead their frontend development and design, as their team of developers are not experts in this area. The ideal candidate should thrive in a fast-moving, self-starter environment and have a strong eye for design, with experience in tools like Figma, Next.js, React, Tailwind, and Typescript. Emerge is a suite […]

Integer programming is a technique used in computations for scheduling, combinatorial, and optimization problems that require variables to take integer values. Last year, Victor Reis and his advisor Thomas Rothvoss proved a new upper bound on the time to solve integer programs, building on previous work by Daniel Dadush. The algorithm they analyzed provides an […]
The author expresses frustration over non-compete agreements, which limit employees’ ability to switch jobs and negotiate higher salaries. The recent ban by the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) was quickly halted by a court decision, emphasizing the limitation of federal agencies’ powers. The author criticizes the Supreme Court’s overturning of the Chevron Doctrine, highlighting the […]
days have, this vision emerging. And what’s really exciting to me is the direction that leads towards. It’s not about one game or one creator or Epic, building a Metaverse, it’s about everybody building the Metaverse and sharing their own universes and experiences with a larger whole. So Epic’s role in this is not to […]
In this paper, the CALM Theorem is introduced as a solution to the issue of when coordination is necessary in distributed systems. CALM, which stands for “consistency as logical monotonicity”, reveals that programs with consistent, coordination-free implementations can be expressed in monotonic logic. This has practical implications for developers, offering a new perspective beyond traditional […]
In this project, Nimesha Periyapperuma and Yudhanjaya Wijeratne present Team Watchdog’s simulation of Colombo. Using accurate topographical representation, detailed land use and zoning, and data reflecting real-world demographics, the project aims to help citizens better comprehend urban issues and potential interventions. The simulation, built on the Cities Skylines platform, allows for visualizing infrastructure changes, testing […]
This document delves into the world of secure elements and FIDO hardware tokens, specifically focusing on the Infineon SLE78 secure element found in YubiKey 5 Series devices. By analyzing a similar JavaCard platform, researchers discovered a side-channel vulnerability in the Infineon ECDSA implementation, allowing for the extraction of the ECDSA secret key with physical access.
