Sextortion-based hacking, which hijacks a victim’s webcam or blackmails them with nudes they’re tricked or coerced into sharing, has long represented one of the most disturbing forms of cybercrime. Now one specimen of widely available spyware has turned that relatively manual crime into an automated feature, detecting when the user is browsing pornography on their…
Three months ago, I spent an embarrassing amount of time optimizing a complex Redis caching layer – tweaking expiration strategies, adding compression, even experimenting with different serialization formats. The performance improvements were modest at best. Then, almost accidentally, I discovered that a single line of string processing code was consuming 40% of our CPU cycles….
While there is a lot of work to do, Tedrake says all of the evidence so far suggests that the approaches used to LLMs also work for robots. “I think it’s changing everything,” he says. Gauging progress in robotics has become more challenging of late, of course, with videoclips showing commercial humanoids performing complex chores,…

Scenario My organization needed workloads to communicate using domain names instead of raw IP addresses. The requirement was to avoid setting up a custom DNS solution and rely solely on Azure-native DNS services. To meet this, we implemented: A Private DNS zone (private.contoso.com) A Virtual network link to app-vnet A new DNS record for backend…
Smokeless firepits aren’t smokeless, exactly. Fire makes smoke, and smoke generally means fire. But here’s the thing: Smoke, especially black or gray smoke, is a sign of the inefficiency of a fire. Much of smoke is uncombusted material, carried aloft into the air. If you burn more efficently, you make a lot less uncombusted material…
