A malicious MKV opens in VLC. A fake calc.exe pops up: "We've got you."

An AI agent made an MCP trace-driven analysis and reconstructed the full exploit chain, use-after-free, heap spray, ROP chain, shellcode, from a single CPU trace.

VLC Media Player MKV Exploit Analysis | eShard

We reconstructed a full VLC Media Player exploit chain from a 4.78-billion-instruction CPU trace using MCP-based time-travel debugging.

A team including @EPFL engineers has designed a rotating platform whose controlled spin can make flexible beams snap between two stable states.

The simple, fast method can encode #binary information directly into materials without #electronics!

A los que les gusta Ruby, prueben Cristal language + Lucky.

Ese lenguaje compila a binario y va a volar en sus servidores. Creo que es un buen equilibrio entre "mantener la sintaxis que les gusta" y "adaptarse a las necesidades de hoy" (mayor carga).

Crystal

Crystal is a general-purpose, object-oriented programming language. With syntax inspired by Ruby, it’s a compiled language with static type-checking. Types are resolved by an advanced type inference algorithm.

Binary Stars Form Lots Of Exoplanets, But Many Of Them Are Ejected As Rogue Planets

Binary stars are common, but for a long time astronomers have thought that exoplanets would have trouble forming around them. In recent years, powerful telescopes have detected about 50 of these plane...
