Researchers recently demonstrated that their artificial intelligence model, GPT-4, can autonomously hack one-day vulnerabilities with an impressive success rate. In a subsequent study, they showed that by employing a team of specialized agents through a unique HPTSA technique, they were able to hack zero-day vulnerabilities even more efficiently. This approach is reminiscent of how real-world […]

Michael Levin, a revolutionary biologist at Tufts University, challenges the conventional view of biology by emphasizing the importance of the bioelectric network in shaping development. Rather than focusing solely on genes, Levin’s work demonstrates how cells throughout the body communicate through electrical signals to coordinate the construction of complex body structures. Through experiments with planarians […]
Today we’re introducing WARC-GPT: a customizable tool for the web archiving community to delve into the world of web archiving and AI. WARC-GPT enables users to develop personalized chatbots utilizing web archive files as their knowledge base.

The author details their troubleshooting journey with the PS2 SDK, encountering issues like TLB crashes and graphics glitches after ps2link resets. They address problems with libcglue timezone startup code and incorrect framebuffer allocation. By delving into assembly code, they discover that missing newlines in the code caused critical portions to be commented out, resulting in […]
In this repository, the focus is on assembly on Apple silicon Macs, adapting code from a book for ARM64 line of computers. Though Apple uses “M1 processor,” the developer docs refer to “Apple silicon.” Prerequisites include Xcode 12.2, macOS Big Sur, or iOS 14. Alignments, system call function numbers, and linkers differ between Darwin and […]
The abstract discusses the fascinating rock art found along the Middle and Upper Orinoco River in South America, featuring incredibly large and mysterious engravings, such as gigantic snakes reaching over 40m in length. The authors map the geographic distribution of these impressive snake motifs and explore their visibility in the Orinoco landscape and Indigenous myths. […]
Libtree is a tool that visualizes ldd dependencies in a tree format, offering explanations on shared library locations. Default output omits some standard dependencies, but verbosity levels can be adjusted with -v flags. Show skipped libraries with -vv or full dependencies with -vvv. Specify paths with -p flag and limit recursion depth with –max-depth. Prebuilt […]
The author discusses how Lego is shifting the focus of the Technic series away from functional models, leading them to build their own orrery out of Lego Technic parts. The orrery is a scientific instrument that models the motion of celestial bodies, accurately representing the orbits of the Earth, Moon, and Sun. The unique design […]
