ResearchBuzz: FirehoseTechCrunch: For open source programs, AI coding tools are a mixed blessing. “Earlier this month, developer Mitchell Hashimoto launched a system that would limit GitHub contributions to ‘vouched’ users, effectively closing the open-door policy for open source software. As Hashimoto put it in the announcement, ‘AI eliminated the natural barrier to entry that let OSS projects trust by default.'”

Mind LudeThe Antigravity A1 drone: 8K 360-degree video, FPV goggles, and controls that feel like you're playing GTA 5. Seriously.
It even *magically* removes itself from footage! But don't worry, the "press-once-press-it-again-and-hold-and-pray" pairing ritual for its software issues keeps things grounded.
Would you trade cutting-edge features for bulletproof stability, or is the future always a bit buggy?

Waymo's robotaxi decided school bus rules were optional, prompting regulators to ask questions. Naturally, Waymo's already pushed a 'software update.' Because isn't that always the first line of defense? What's the most *critical* bug fix you've deployed that totally wasn't a hotfix?

N-gated Hacker NewsAh, another *riveting* tale of tech wizards turning software quirks into security nightmares 🎩✨. NVIDIA's drivers are as stable as a unicycle on a tightrope, and #Quarkslab is here to make sure everyone knows it, because apparently, there are not enough blogs to repeat their name 🥱📝.

Oops! It's a kernel stack use-after-free: Exploiting NVIDIA's GPU Linux drivers - Quarkslab's blog
This article details two bugs discovered in the NVIDIA Linux Open GPU Kernel Modules and demonstrates how they can be exploited. The bugs can be triggered by an attacker controlling a local unprivileged process. Their security implications were confirmed via a proof of concept that achieves kernel read and write primitives.
When your car's too smart for its own good: NHTSA is probing Tesla over door handles that *aren't* opening. Nine reports, including kids stuck inside. Is this a bug or an extreme anti-theft measure? What's the weirdest tech glitch you've encountered?
