The subject of the article (Dr Sean Olive) has been doing research into actual perceivable differences in audio reproduction - he wrote the book on ideal curves for headphones based on blind tests by trained and untrained listeners. I read

Wow. A universal, unprivileged local kernel stack use-after-free enabling ~97%-reliable privilege escalation and container escape via a constrained write primitive, control-flow hijack, and ROP * Introduced in Linux 2.6.39 in 2011 * patched

"By the end of 2026, we expect CXMT to reach roughly 350 kwspm, which is only modestly below Micron’s estimated ~385 kwspm. This would position CXMT close to becoming the industry’s third-largest memory supplier" https:/&#x2

Its rational for CXMT to not chase HBM right now, because commodity DRAM currently carries higher margins than its immature HBM process. Curious to see how this influences the consumer RAM shortage medium term (2027).

Sounds like it’s a low level hardware/firmware hole that can’t be patched.

The lack of open, replaceable software is the main blocker. The article talks about only keeping the motherboard anyway. End users don’t need to replace screens, ports and batteries if there is reasonable cost parts and skilled labour avail

Exactly this. Few phones allow bootloader unlock let alone open drivers that can be brought forward to a mainline kernel. The article seems to refer to a 2023 Pixel Fold as one of their candidates - I guess a good opportunity if those fragi

We need a benchmark that tests a models ability to do LLM research.

I feel like your analysis is correct and it’s overvalued but employees and insiders have already been selling shares (eg on platforms like Forge) for around the $130-135 IPO price. So there are buyers, question is if there is enough to cons

I had an old 1st gen Amazon Firestick in a drawer for years, it had updated to the latest software and there were no public root exploits. I spent a day bouncing between Claude and Codex and they researched, downloaded kernel sources, tried

I used a combination of Opus 4.7 and Codex 5.5 over the course of a day to find and exploit a root privilege escalation on my 1st gen Amazon firestick (android 5) - you shouldn't need mythos firepower for old kernels. A helpful prompt

Yes, same here. I can’t help but think they had an iPhone SOC planned for it (tiny motherboard, only one usb-c) but the hw/os team weren’t ready.

Wow. Have to respect someone spending time on the GMA500. It was terrible when new, I recall Ubuntu being barely able to render desktop without lag. Windows was better but still unpleasant. The vaio p’s odd screen aspect ratio was also a ch

Let me guess you don’t live in an apartment? 5ghz is important if you are interference limited. The lack of wall penetration and short range become benefits. 2.4ghz provides very poor performance in my condo due to the 30 different SSIDs I

ish and a-Shell both give you a terminal and some sort of semblance of a Unix vm with package management. Both good but nowhere near the termux ecosystem and integration

Nice work! A cheap MCU and some careful soldering and you wouldn't even need to be around to hold the volume button. What sort of token spend did this take?

“The credit covers usage of: . . . - claude -p” This is new right? Previously “-p” drew from subscription usage.
