I asked if they did this and Claude said: "Yes." And called the dead agent the "old agent" because it had "475k tokens of context"

Code-execution flaw in UEFI firmware threatens most servers on planet Earth arstechnica.com/security/202…
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The vulnerability (CVE-2026-97631) only affects systems actively PXE network-booting using vulnerable EDK2 firmware; it requires sending malicious ICMP packets during that window and does not impact systems booting from local disks or with PXE disabled. github.com/tianocore/edk2… arstechnica.com/security/2026/…

zfs fan vs btrfs enjoyer
I have a friend who's really into zfs. She talks a lot about what a great filesystem it is. But she seems to spend most of her time fighting with zfs and zfs snapshots and zfs misconfigurations and "making sure the wrong data isn't erased during startup" ... 1/

this blog shows some of the worst bugs claude found, including a zero-click rce on the linux networking stack that roots a server over the network with no creds or interaction, and tens of full rce chains in chrome (recording below is the one in the blog): anthropic.com/research/disco…

Cloudflare shipped GLM-5.3 with a 1,048,576-token context on a KV cache that held 681,280. They knew about the gap. Long-context tests came back HTTP 200, so it looked fine. 155 responses ended up carrying other customers' data.

you can tell that Apple and Google and Microsoft don’t care _that_ much about the security of all their users because they don’t outbid the exploit vendors who buy bugs to build hacking toolkits, despite having the money to do so. an ongoing betrayal

People basically believe that anything which isn't directly interacting with physical delivery of goods / services is "fake". You even see people in Excel jobs think of them as fake, without ever stopping to consider why they're employed in the first place
There is a peculiar Third World malaise of thinking that everything of value is created by their primary industries, and all the more advanced economies like the US and Singapore and Malaysia do is steal all their profit from them. I can't tell if folks really believe that

nodejs linux official builds are no-pie by default for perf reasons. some distributions like debian/alpine rebuild node, which can enable pie here's a tracking issue for it: github.com/nodejs/node/issue…

The biggest culture shock I've experienced so far is that the Apple store in Japan doesn't lock any devices to the table

This is really cool but also clearing forests is bad. There could be frogs living in those trees

The poll so far between Twitter, Bluesky and Mastodon. I think it looks less absurd than last time, but still pretty clear that the base is divided. xitter.cf/mitsuhiko/status/21143…
Do you still write more than 20% of code by hand?
