If you run a rooted phone and download malware, that malware can gain root and do payments on your behalf. Then PayPal has to deal with you revoking payments etc., they don't want to so they forbid you from using PayPal on a rooted ph

LLM-as-a-judge? Given that LLMs are trained with RL && LLM-as-a-judge, is it really cheating if real competitions use the same? Maybe the real alignment is the slop we decoded along the way

There are agencies in Germany where you can buy review removals in a web shop for like 50 euros per review. You just have to link the review and they will send Google a legal document to delete it.

I guess this is a great report, but the parallax landing page shenanigans disrupt my reading flow, you cannot easily scroll back to get a overview of the key facts, so I stopped.

I love GeoJSON :) You can bring any Geo/GIS from 0 to visualization by just parsing it into GeoJSON. geojson.io is a great editor/viewer by Mapbox. Also https://kepler.gl/demo is great for additional filtering, vi

fyi: modern vehicles are required to have a e(mergency)Call function (UNECE UN-R 144), therefore all of these cars have a modem with a unique IMEI (that is typically bound to a VIN), therefore you can track the movements of every car pretty

TIL: Generally all plastics exposed to UV start to photodegrade. If you google why old computers turn particularly yellow most sources point to bromine-based flame retardant agents in the plastic, but some people make a convincing case[1] t

I find it interesting that TI still seems to use custom ASIC chips for their calculators. Any MCU out of their portfolio should be fully capable of driving the display, reading the keyboard. And the math should be lightweight for even the s

Holy slop. Not only is the README.md largely written by a LLM (:emoji: :emoji:), the repo does not contain a single folder but 25 files (.py, .csproj, .png ...) , many of them 0 bytes.

Tor on Chromium, when? Seriously, I am saddened that Chromium dominates the browser market as much as it does, but at this point the herd-immunity of Chromium is necessary to keep users safe.

The most interesting takeaway from this project and the Mac touchpad actually measuring it's pressure in grams[1] is how Apple seems to prioritise it's ability to deliver new features in later software releases rather than their B

Great work! I was working on something similiar, using ReVanced(1) Framework, which allows you to distribute fuzzy tweaks to regular APKs with their ReVanced Manager(2) which can persist multiple version updates. They have their own DSL (3)

I dislike tech monopolies but Chrome leaving Google would be most terrible thing ever, security wise. Google has become the benevolent dictator of the web, if you like it or not. We get secure browsers, performance improvements, stable impl

As a reverse-engineer tinkering with iOS this reminded me of some system apps. E.g. in the app store you click a button, send a request, receive the response which contains a xml-like structure describing the UI mutation to your action. &lt
