From a report: The two announced a tentative agreement Monday to set up a joint holding company that will aim to list shares in August 2026. While their executives called the transaction a merger, Honda will take the lead in forming the new entity and nominate a majority of its directors.

Мы создаем софт для горно-геологических служб калийных рудников. Наши геологи и маркшейдеры каждый день превращают тысячи скважинных проб в карты: отметки кровли пласта, содержания KCl, мощности, газоопасность. Классический инструмент для этого - кригинг, и в QGIS он формально есть: SAGA, GRASS, Smart-Map, связки со SciPy. На практике же каждый вариант чем-то не устраивал, и год назад я начал писать свой плагин. Сейчас Isoliner - это 24 инструмента в официальном репозитории... Read more ›

После появления ChatGPT и массового распространения GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code, Windsurf и других AI-инструментов разработка стала заметно быстрее. Код, тесты, README, комментарии и небольшие utility-функции теперь можно получить за секунды.Но вместе с этим появился менее очевидный вопрос: если миллионы разработчиков используют похожие модели и похожие промпты, не становится ли открытый код более однообразным?В этой статье я проверяю эту гипотезу на данных GitHub за 2019-2025 годы: через GH Archive Read more ›

При самых низких температурах во Вселенной материя начинает вести себя странно. Когда атомы охлаждаются до температуры чуть выше абсолютного нуля, они начинают проводить электричество без сопротивления, превращаться в облака «суперчастиц» или течь без трения и подниматься по стенкам сосудов.Существование на самых мелких и холодных масштабах подчиняется законам квантовой статистики, которая определяет поведение бозонов и фермионов — двух семейств фундаментальных частиц, из которых, как считается, состоит всё Read more ›

Самая вычислительно прожорливая индустрия в истории считает на языке, который медленнее C примерно в 70 раз и занял 26-е место из 27 по энергоэффективности. Разбираемся, как Python стал королём ИИ, во сколько обходится его корона — в микросекундах, гигаватт-часах и удвоенном труде инженеров, — и почему новые территории (on-device, edge, локальный инференс) уже отвоёвывают компилируемые языки, в первую очередь Swift. С цифрами, ссылками на первоисточники и разбором честных контраргументов. Читать... Read more ›

The Los Angeles Police Department says about 1,500 police agencies across America have drone programs, reports SFGate, and 58 of those drone-using police agencies are in California. The Sacramento County sheriff's office recently posted drone footage on Instagram set to theme from "Mission: Impossible," claiming "a nationwide first" where their drone successfully disarmed a felon "seen earlier with a firearm" (though now not moving, but holding a knife while lying...

When Mt. Vesuvius erupted in 79 A.D., it buried hundreds of papyrus scrolls. They were rediscovered in the mid-1700s, remembers Smithsonian magazine, "the only surviving collection of its kind from the Greco-Roman world..." "But when scholars tried to unroll them, the carbonized manuscripts crumbled to dust." Every generation that followed faced the same dilemma: They could wait for technology to advance, abandoning hope of reading the ancient texts in their... Read more ›

Max Planck won 1918's Nobel Prize for physics. Yet two of his papers were retracted — a move now being criticized by Yves Gingras, a historian of physics at the University of Quebec and Mahdi Khelfaoui, a fellow historian of science at UQ Trois-Rivières. Science reports: The papers, both quietly retracted in 2011, originally appeared in the early 1940s in Naturwissenschaften, a German journal now owned by publishing giant Springer... Read more ›

There's a deadly, record-breaking heat wave spreading east across Europe, reports the Washington Post — and it's even worse than a dire earlier forecast: The forecast was recorded in 2014 as part of a campaign coordinated by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) that invited about 60 presenters worldwide to imagine a weather report from the year 2050. In one clip, Ãvelyne Dhéliat from French television network TF1 presented a hypothetical... Read more ›

Slashdot reader BrianFagioli writes: Florida International University researchers have developed a technique called JaiLIP (Jailbreaking with Loss-guided Image Perturbation) that uses subtle image modifications to bypass AI safety guardrails. Unlike traditional jailbreaks that rely on carefully crafted prompts, the attack works through images that appear normal to human viewers. The researchers tested the technique against BLIP-2, a multimodal AI model, and found that manipulated images significantly increa Read more ›

The Onion joked the new movie Supergirl is about a hero who must single-handedly save the world "after the catastrophic collapse of interest in the genre." Unfortunately, The Hollywood Reporter says the film's reviews "range from negative to tepid praise (averaging a 58 percent Rotten Tomatoes score)." Many point fingers at the film's script, with Variety's line — "a comic-book movie with the worst script I can remember" — going... Read more ›
