"General Motors sold the data of California drivers without their knowledge or consent," says California's attorney general, "and despite numerous statements reassuring drivers that it would not do so."
In 2024, The New York Times "reported that automakers including GM were sharing information about their customers' driving behavior with insurance companies," remembers TechCrunch, "and that some customers were concerned that their insurance rates had gone up as a result."

Недавно я читал книгу Дэна Акермана «Эффект Тетриса», заключительная глава которой называется «Когнитивная вакцина». На этом бонусном уровне рассказывается, как профессор Холмс из Оксфорда применяет Тетрис в клинических экспериментах по изучению ПТСР. Тема показалась достаточно любопытной, чтобы копнуть глубже. Тем более что ранее я уже писал о когнитивных функциях и нейропластичности мозга на примере кубика Рубика. Далее разбираемся в экспериментах британских ученых. Читать далее Read more ›

В один тихий день 2021 года во время пандемии Чжиюань Ван, тогда ещё аспирант Университета Райса, разгонял скуку, работая над странной математической задачей. Найдя для неё экзотическое решение, он начал задумываться, можно ли интерпретировать эти математические выкладки с физической точки зрения. В конце концов, он понял, что они, по-видимому, описывают новый тип частицы: такую, которая не является ни частицей материи, ни частицей, переносящей силу. Похоже, это было нечто совершенно иное.Ван... Read more ›

Недавно я опубликовал на Хабре статью о небольшом пакете django-scroll-to-top, который добавляет кнопку «Наверх» в проекты на Django. Сам пакет решает довольно локальную задачу, но обсуждение под статьёй оказалось интереснее, чем я ожидал.В комментариях возник вполне закономерный вопрос: насколько вообще подобным интерфейсным дополнениям место в стандартной Django Admin? Ведь каждое установленное приложение добавляет свои пункты в боковое меню, и со временем административная панель действительно может начат Read more ›

An anonymous reader quotes a report from Ars Technica: Researchers have found a never-before-seen piece of macOS malware that combines a series of clever tradecraft to infect Macs with stealthy, custom-developed credential-stealing code. The malware is delivered in two stages. The first is distributed in a disk image that masquerades as Maccy, a clipboard manager for Macs.

The Verge argues that researchers "have made genuine progress in quantum computing — it's just been largely incremental and too esoteric to immediately capture the public's imagination." And there are predictions that quantum computers will finally do something useful as soon as 2028: The drama can overshadow the real progress in quantum computing... Researchers have improved the qubits themselves, so they hold onto information longer. When they hold onto information... Read more ›

Slashdot reader wiredmikey writes: AI security researchers have uncovered a structural security flaw dubbed GuardFall that allows decades-old Bash shell tricks to bypass safeguards in most open source AI coding agents. By exploiting shell behaviors such as quote removal and variable expansion, attackers can hide malicious commands in repositories, README files, Makefiles, or other content consumed by AI agents. If executed — particularly in auto-approve or CI environments—the commands can... Read more ›
