I suspect most people outside of the UK won't have heard about the post office scandal, but it seems highly relevant to learn about now (given *waves* this):

For over 15 years, the software post offices in the UK had to use contained severe bugs, particular in accounting, that everyone at Fujitsu/horizon and the post blissfully ignored. Over 900 (!!!) postmasters were sentenced for alleged theft and fraud, some went to jail, some committed suicide. All because the software was shit and everyone who could do something about it didn't care and swept it under the rug.

Everything, including how it was uncovered, about this seems bizarre and Kafkaesque, but we better prepare for it to happen more often.

CVE-2026-3784 beat a new #curl record. This flaw existed in curl source code for 24.97 years before it was discovered.

Illustrated in the slightly hard-to-read graph below. The average age of a curl vulnerability when reported is eight years.

Me? Trolling the other microcontroller vendors? Surely not! Maybe if they had bothered to do something about the most common source of vulnerabilities at some point in the last few decades, the could have been on the other side of the sign...

RIP Tony Hoare. His obituaries are talking about quicksort, but I think his most notable accomplishments are Communicating Sequential Processes, the Occam programming language, and the Transputer, an early example of a parallel processor

@tito_swineflu That being said they are taking the threat seriously in the past. In 2021 I was lucky enough to catch the F-117s deployment to Fresno to train with the 144th. One of the purposes was for the Nighthawks to simulate stealthy aircraft / drones for the F-15 to practice against. Here are some of the pics and the article has a more detailed description and more of my shots

@kajer @hkrn I really hope this is just MS completely misunderstanding users (as usual), and not a real demand to live a life in complete numbness.

@algernon Reminds me of the Tamagochi graveyard (that I heard was a SCH student stunt to get on TV)

5,200 holes carved into a Peruvian mountain left by an ancient economy

Has anyone tried to feed it into a PDP11 as a punch card yet? If I found anything old with holes in it, I would definitely see if it is a FORTRAN program.

OK I definitely won't ever get the baseball references.

I'm sorry but I had to look up "hoosegow" then realized I probably live too far east to get these references :(

NEW: A hacker broke into a server at the Child Exploitation Forensic Lab in the FBI’s New York Field Office and compromised files related to the Epstein investigation, as first reported by Reuters.

“Following the 2023 cyber incident, the FBI contained the affected network and determined the incident to be an isolated one. The FBI restricted access to the malicious actor and rectified the network,” an FBI spokesperson said.
