Рассмотрен подход к созданию управляемого "бэкдора", позволяющего подгружать функции без остановки и перезагрузки. С помощью манипуляций с линкер-скриптом и средств языка C создаются "точки расширения" в прошивке, позволяющие в будущем внедрять новые функциональные модули без пересборки и перезаписи всей программы. Такой подход может быть полезен при разработке отказоустойчивых систем для оптимизации жизненного цикла встроенного ПО, так как позволяет заложить гибкость при непредвиденных модификациях.

Long-time Slashdot reader Anne Thwacks frequently uses YouTube's subtitles "not to disturb others in the room, or because my hearing is not very good." But they say there's a new problem.

But that is why Japan’s cardboard drone story is getting attention. The concern is not that cardboard suddenly became a miracle aerospace material. The concern is what happens when drones become cheap enough to build, transport, and... Read more ›

The AI industry is largely failing to ask a key design question, argues theoretical neuroscientist/cognitive scientist Vivienne Ming. Are their AI products building human capacity or consuming it? In the Wall Street Journal Ming shares her experiment about which group performed best at predicting real-world events (compared to forecasters on prediction market Polymarket) — AI, human, or human-AI hybrid teams. The human groups performed poorly, relying on instinct or whatever... Read more ›

An anonymous reader shared this report from the Associated Press: The 1986 Chernobyl disaster fueled global fears about nuclear power and slowed its development in Europe and elsewhere. Four decades later, however, there's a revival around the world, a trend that has been given a big boost by war in the Middle East. Over 400 nuclear reactors are operational in 31 countries, while about 70 more are under construction. Nuclear... Read more ›

In March, NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman announced that the moon-orbiting "Lunar Gateway" space station was being "paused" to focus instead of missions to the moon's surface. And Ars Technica agrees that the project was essentially "spending billions of dollars to make it more difficult to reach the lunar surface and faced the prospect of watching Chinese astronauts wander around on the Moon from orbit instead of being there themselves."
