My Mom built an analog ad blocker for her favorite tablet game and while I cannot stop laughing, I'm also hella proud of her. Go Mom! Stick it to the man!

A cybersecurity researcher finds that 20% of software packages recommended by GPT-4 are fake, so he builds one that 15,000 code bases already depend on, to prevent some hacker from writing a malware version.

Disaster averted in this case, but there aren't enough fingers to plug all the AI-generated holes 😬

PostgreSQL maintainer Simon Riggs has died in a small airplane crash, on Tuesday.

For those who didn't know Simon, he's responsible for PostgreSQL Binary Replication and many big data features. He and I worked together at Greenplum 2006-2008. Postgres would not be the world-leading DB it is today if it weren't for him.

Nouveaux records historiques pour le #cacao sur les marchés internationaux : la tonne de cette précieuse fève a atteint 10.000 dollars à la bourse de New York mardi.

les prix du cacao ont atteint 10 000 dollars (9 235 euros) la tonne, ce qui le rend plus cher que le cuivre, qui se négocie actuellement autour de 8 700 dollars la tonne.
