First vacuums – then the world

Dreame — pronounced dreamy — used its half-minute of exposure to promise a dizzying product evolution: from robot vacuums and lawnmowers to hypercars, humanoids, and even into outer space. Transformers-style robots took each product to the next level, hinting at a far bigger future than sweeping floors. “This commercial isn’t just about visibility; it’s a statement of commitment,” said Dreame’s North American CEO, Ana Wang.

First vacuums — then the world

The robot vacuum company plans to build everything from hypercars to hair dryers — and China’s Elon Musk. It’ll either win big or go down in flames.

#DJI will pay $30K to the engineer who accidentally hacked 7,000 #Romo #robovacs. All he wanted to do was drive his #robot #vacuum with a PS5 controller
DJI would also not tell us which discovery it’s paying him for, but says it has already addressed the extra #vulnerability Azdoufal found where someone can view a DJI Romo video stream without needing a security pin. “We can confirm that the PIN code security observation was addressed by late February."

DJI will pay $30K to the man who accidentally hacked 7,000 Romo robovacs

DJI will pay Sammy Azdoufal $30,000 after he used Claude Code to accidentally access a network of 7,000 robot vacuums.

Something different for this #WindowFriday - this is a small KBr window (it's transparent to mid-infrared radiation) on a #cryogenic sample holder inside a #vacuum chamber. As you can see, it's cracked, but luckily it still served the purpose as a substrate for growing ice layers on it. We then irradiated these layers in a #laboratory #astrochemistry experiment at #GANIL in Caen, France.

I just had to break up a fight between my #robot #vacuum and a doormat.
The doormat was winning. I don't think the robot #uprising will be very spectacular, if this incident is anything to go by.
The DJI Romo robovac had security so poor, this man remotely accessed thousands of them

A man discovered that thousands of DJI Romo robot vacuums had a security issue that could have let strangers look into owners’ homes and remotely control them.

Today we picked up our meat from the local butcher and vacuum-sealed about 60 pieces: fillet cutlets, roast, goulash, osso buco. The ground meat, ribs and bones we packed in ordinary bags. The yield wasn’t particularly high for a one-year-old calf, but the quality is excellent. It was aged for 13 days.
From a global perspective, it’s better to avoid eating meat (since factory farming consumes a great deal of resources and is harmful to the environment). However, meat can also be produced in a more sustainable local way. Finally, meat again. Grateful for this luxury.

PostgreSQL: транзакции, блокировки и почему Serializable падает

Несколько лет назад я делал внутренние доклады по PostgreSQL для команды — разбирали транзакции, блокировки и уровни изоляции на живых примерах. Потом ушёл на другой стек, а недавно вернулся к PostgreSQL и пересмотрел свои записи. Материал до сих пор актуален — базовые концепции не изменились. В статье: почему UPDATE из двух сессий «висит», чем Read Committed отличается от Repeatable Read на практике, почему Serializable падает даже без логического конфликта, и как VACUUM на самом деле работает с мёртвыми строками. Всё с SQL-примерами, которые можно повторить.

PostgreSQL: транзакции, блокировки и почему Serializable падает

Если вы когда-либо сталкивались с тем, что запросы внезапно «висят», транзакции ведут себя странно, а UPDATE из двух сессий приводит к неожиданным результатам — эта статья поможет понять, что...
