Pro tip for people using AI to mass-file "security bugs" against open source projects: If the first step of your repro is "Launch program with the --turn_off_all_security_features flag" your bot did not discover a security bug. 🤬

There really needs to be a no-AI conference. Not an anti-AI one, just one where people turn up for a day or two somewhere and happen to not talk about it

I've seen a lot of people analyzing video recently to determine if it's AI or not, and I am BEGGING them to learn what compression artifacts are.

Also, I saw one person looking at an AI-upscaled frame of a video and pointing out hallucinated details as proof that the video was fake and I just can't. 😫

With the increasing amount of data and requests, performance has become a real issue for my @vulkan #Vulkan Hardware database at https://vulkan.gpuinfo.org/.

So I just released a substantial update to it, that reworked some of the slower and often used queries like extension coverage listings (which now is mostly instant). With this change, performance should improve a lot and with that also site availability.

You can read up on the details at https://www.saschawillems.de/blog/2026/03/13/improving-performance-of-the-vulkan-hardware-database/
