Today, I want to examine another concerning trend in the blockchain space, the growing disconnect between Web3 rhetoric and Web2 reality in corporate structures

AI is revolutionizing cybercrime, with deepfakes, voice phishing, and AI-generated phishing scams driving a 442% surge in social engineering attacks. Businesses must deploy AI-based detection tools, phishing-resistant MFA, and user training to defend against these evolving threats. Security isn’t just about tech—it’s about awareness and resilience.

rlama enables a fully local, privacy-first RAG system with no cloud dependencies. This guide walks through installation, document indexing, querying, and optimization.

Artificial Intelligence Optimization (AIO) is one of the newest developments in search engine optimization. AIO combines AI technologies with traditional SEO techniques which improves the processes. Adopting AI SEO techniques and automation increases the accuracy of reaching the target audience and increases user engagement.

A lot of the diagnosis process sometimes feels like guesswork to me. Doctors have to rely on a patient’s ability to accurately describe what they’re going through. If a doctor has never dealt with a particular illness before, their chances of diagnosing it early in a patient are quite [low]

Someone asked me why I was so excited about OpenTelemetry. The reasons have more to do with it's innovation and utility than it's novelty.

The ongoing debate about the authorship and ownership of generative content is intense. There are two sides to the AI copyright debate. One contends generative models’ work is transformative since they can learn to produce new content. The other argues they are using intellectual property without permission.

AI won’t replace me yet. But what if it proves I was never that original? This essay explores how large language models don’t just mimic human writing but reveal how formulaic, predictive, and machine-like most human output has always been. From genre fiction to LinkedIn “Accordion of Wisdom” posts, much of what we call creativity might just be pattern recognition. The real existential crisis?...

Nummus will be a custodial wallet that offers a BTC-backed credit card, collateralized loans, and secure custody. The main goal is to ship a clean, functional Bitcoin wallet that demonstrates my ability to deliver, grow, and scale a product to users and potential investors.

A few months ago, I spoke with Shaolei Ren, as associate professor of computer science at University of California, Riverside, and his team about their research into the secret water footprint of AI.

AutoResponder AI is an AI-powered email assistant that can help you save time and prevent your inbox from overflowing. It checks all your unread emails in Gmail, understands their sentiment, writes the replies for the ones that need a reply and saves them as drafts for you to finalize. When the drafts are ready, it will send you a notification by email or SMS...

Linear Attention variants optimize autoregressive modeling with kernel approximations and efficient normalization. Long-context models promise scalability, but few prove performance gains—Selective SSMs aim to bridge the gap.

SSMs integrate selection mechanisms and state expansion to outperform traditional RNNs in sequence modeling. Models like H3, RetNet, and RWKV refine AI efficiency for long-context data, surpassing RNN limitations.

Selection mechanisms refine AI’s approach to gating and hypernetworks, enabling structured state space models (SSMs) to handle long-context tasks more efficiently. Mamba leverages this innovation to outperform traditional models in sequence learning.

With vehicles becoming more software-defined, the need for higher quality and more automated security testing is evident.

We now discuss how our testing platform can enable a researcher to rapidly establish and experiment with numerous ECU networks to support their security research

In the context of this work, we define ECUs as production ECUs from the field, engineering samples, or even off-the-shelf automotive-grade microcontrollers

The designer, Marcio agrees that he is not a prototyper, that he is a shipper. With this reflective writing he agrees with the (big idea) from 37signals - that UX, UI, front-end development, copywriter, should be seen as one role. But he also reflects about how writing takes a specialist to become a generalist, a better thinker, a better designer, a better manager, a...

*Signals* are a new concept in Angular that plays well with reactive programming and templates. They can be used to create signals that are automatically destroyed when a component or service is destroyed. They are a way of solving the problem of memory leaks when integrating signals and RxJS. They work with asynchronisity in Angular so it’s easy to introduce memory leaks.

NAMLE specifically recognized The Markup for creating actionable journalism for the public good. In late 2022, we published an article describing how we approach impact in our newsroom, which centers on being clear and deliberate about who we want to “equip with the tools, knowledge, and agency to create change.”

A Michigan nuclear power plant is reopening as the U.S. continues looking to nuclear to solve the energy crisis. However, locals may have concerns, such as nuclear waste, radiation, or the possibility of a meltdown. While the risks are generally low, it may be wise to implement a buffer zone.

Multi-cloud strategies optimize performance but pose security and connectivity challenges. Experts like Arun Pandiyan Perumal use DevOps, automation, and AI to enhance reliability, observability, and security. Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) streamline cloud management. AI-driven self-healing systems could revolutionize multi-cloud operations.
