Axios reported that US Central Command has prepared a plan for a wave of "short and powerful" strikes on Iran.

Donald Trump doit recevoir jeudi un briefing sur de nouveaux plans en vue d’éventuelles actions militaires contre l’Iran, présenté par le commandant du commandement central des Etats-Unis, rapporte « Axios ».

Dans la plaine de la Crau, près d’Arles, une expérimentation est menée pour redonner vie à des sols pollués par les armes. La « braouque », un brachypode au système racinaire très développé, est notamment utilisé pour tenter de stabiliser les métaux lourds présents sous terre.

Les prix du gaz en France vont augmenter de plus 15 %, à partir du 1er mai, pour une grande partie des ménages. Au-delà de cette hausse, liée au conflit au Moyen-Orient, l’augmentation des redevances pour l’entretien du réseau et de la taxe carbone risque de faire bondir les tarifs au cours des prochaines années.

À l'occasion de la fête du Travail, le 1er mai est férié dans la plupart des pays européens (image : manifestation du 1er mai en Autriche) - Crédits : Flickr SPÖ CC BY-SA 2.0 En 1886, le 1er mai (date du moving day qui marque le début de l'année comptable des entreprises) est choisi par les syndicats ouvriers américains pour revendiquer la journée de huit heures, sous le slogan "8 heures de travail, 8 heures de sommeil, 8 heures de loisirs". À Chicago, une grève massive dégénère au bout de trois jours : après l'explosion d'une bombe qui tue sept policiers, les forces de l'ordre tirent sur la foule et entraînent la mort de quatre à huit personnes, en blessant des dizaines d'autres.

Le BME280 et le DHT22, deux capteurs ultra-populaires en domotique, ont une faiblesse cachée dans leur spécifications : ils ne supportent pas la condensation. Les gens de Mellow Labs ont creusé la question sur Hackaday après avoir flingué plusieurs sondes dans une salle de bain, et le coupable est marqué noir sur blanc dans les caractéristiques du produit, « non-condensing humidity »…
Le souci tient en fait à la physique du truc. Quand l'humidité relative dépasse les 100%, l'air saturé en vapeur d'eau rencontre une surface plus froide, et l'eau se condense en gouttelettes. Dans une salle de bain c'est un scénario particulierrement fréquent : vous prenez une douche chaude, l'air monte à 95%...

Pourquoi les jeunes Chinois ne sont-ils plus motivés et préfèrent-ils mener une vie tranquille ? Le ministère de la Sécurité d’État a trouvé les coupables : certains organismes étrangers hostiles à la Chine financent des influenceurs chinois pour “laver le cerveau” des jeunes afin de les rendre fainéants. Une thèse reprise par les médias d’État mais qui laissent sceptiques les internautes.

Tyrannoctone d’Hipparque par Harmodios et Aristogiton (d’après un vase grec).
La mode étant aux assassinats de dirigeants (Khamenei) — ou au moins à leur kidnapping (Maduro, Noriega avant lui) —, voire à leur lynchage (Kadhafi), tentatives couronnées de succès ou non (trois tentatives recensées contre Trump*), le moment nous semble venu de nous pencher sur la terminologie très fournie concernant ces actes. Commençons par le substantif le moins connu, magnicide : « attentat contre un grand personnage » (CNRTL). Le dictionnaire Littré ne connaît pas ce mot, l’écrivain oublié Paul Bourget l’utilisa, en compagnie de son frère, régicide, « action de tuer un roi ».Celui qui vient...

Le secrétaire au Trésor américain, Scott Bessent, affirme que le carburant pourrait commencer à se raréfier en Iran en raison de la guerre et du blocus des ports iraniens du détroit d’Ormuz. Une analyse jugée “totalement infondée” par certains experts, qui soulignent que l’essentiel de la production est nationale. D’autres estiment toutefois qu’un blocus prolongé finirait par produire ses effets.

Quand on cherche des informations sur le PowerCD d’Apple, on voit généralement que c’est un clone du Kodak PCD 880 et du Philips CDF-100… ce qui n’est pas réellement le cas. J’en avais parlé quand j’avais fait un article sur le PowerCD – qui existe den deux couleurs -, les modèles Kodak et Philips sont (presque) identiques, mais le modèle d’Apple diffère un peu. J’ai (enfin) trouvé un Kodak PCD 880 à un prix correct, donc petit test. Le Kodak PCD 880

DHCP is great for getting machines on the network with a minimum of fuss. However, it can also make remote administration a pain because you never know which IP you’re supposed to be SSHing into. [Philipp] ran into this problem quite often, so decided to whip up an app to make things easier. 
At it’s heart, the app is a simple network scanner—of which many already exist. However, [Philipp] had found that many options on Android were peppered with ads that made them highly undesirable to use. Thus, he whipped up his own, with a particular eye to working with the Raspberry Pi. It’s not uncommon for a hacker to have a few scattered around the home network, and it can be a real chore keeping track of...

Donald Trump est prêt à prolonger le blocus américain sur les ports iraniens – et donc la fermeture de facto du détroit d’Ormuz – “pendant des mois, si nécessaire”, pour tenter d’asphyxier économiquement l’Iran et le faire plier sur son programme nucléaire.

Zuckerberg vows at least two AI agent releases to help make sense of that outrageous number

On secondary markets, its valuation has already $1 trillion or more.

There is a persistent belief in the ‘AI’ community that large language models (LLMs) have the ability to learn and self-improve by tweaking the weights in their vector space. Although there’s scant evidence that tweaking a probability vector space is anything like the learning process in biological brains, we nevertheless get sold the idea that artificial general intelligence (AGI) is just around the corner if we do just enough tweaking.
Instead of emerging super intelligence, the most likely outcome is what is called model collapse, with a recent paper by [Hector Zenil] going over the details on why self-training/learning in LLMs and similar systems is a fool’s errand. For those who just want the...

Musk's testimony about a "halo effect," and about feeling like a "fool" might help explain this weird lawsuit.

Just a simple country CEO who was being tricked by that sophisticated lawyer | Image: Cath Virginia / The Verge, Getty Images About five hours into Elon Musk's testimony, I typed the following sentence into my notes: "I have never been more sympathetic to Sam Altman in my life."
Musk's direct testimony was an improvement over yesterday - even if his lawyer kept asking leading questions to cue him in how to answer. But that memory was immediately obliterated by an absolutely miserable cross-examination. For hours, Musk refused to answer yes or no questions with yes or no, occasionally "forgot" things he'd testified to in the morning, and scolded defense lawyer William Savitt. I watched a few jury members glance...

Tensions flared on the third day of trial in Musk v. Altman as OpenAI’s lawyers cross-examined Musk.

An often overlooked section in the datasheets for popular humidity sensors like the BME280 and DHT22 is the ‘non-condensing humidity’ bit, which puts an important constraint on which environments you can use this sensor in. This was the painful lesson that [Mellow Labs] recently had to learn when multiple of such sensors had kicked the bucket after being used in a nicely steamed-up bathroom. Fortunately, it introduced him to sensors that are rated for use in condensing humidity environments, such as the SHT40 that’s demonstrated in the video.
This particular sensor is made by Sensirion, and as we can see in the datasheet it features a built-in heater that allows it to keep working even in a condensing...

Nintendo recently announced a new pricing policy, which knocks $10 off the cost of digital versions of future first-party titles exclusive to the Nintendo Switch 2. Splatoon Raiders, for instance, is available for preorder ahead of its July 23rd release for $49.99 digitally or $59.99 for the physical edition. However, Walmart is the exception in how it’s pricing preorders for the cartridge version. Right now, you can reserve the upcoming for $49.94 — just a few cents cheaper than the digital version. Raiders isn’t a sequel to Splatoon 3, but rather a spinoff that has similar third-person, paint-splatting gameplay set in new locales.

Microsoft's Xbox hardware revenue continues to tumble, with the company revealing a 33 percent decline as part of its earnings report released on Wednesday. Even though the rest of Microsoft's consumer-focused division took a dip, the company's cloud and productivity businesses continue to soar, driving the company toward $82.9 billion in revenue.
Along with declining Xbox hardware revenue, Microsoft reported a 5 percent drop in Xbox content and services as well.

“Saudi Water Authority (SWA) announced on Monday that it has achieved the world’s lowest energy consumption rate for producing desalinated water, securing entry into the Guinness World Records. A 200,000 cubic metres per day (m3/day) mobile reverse osmosis (RO) desalination plant, located within the Yanbu desalination complex on the Red Sea coast, recorded lowest energy use of 1.55 kilowatt-hours per cubic metre (kWh/m3), SWA said in a social media post. The previous global benchmark was held by Saudi’s Shuaibah 5 desalination plant, a 664,000 m3/day facility on the Red Sea coast, which achieved 1.7 kWh/m3, according to an SWA statement issued in February 2026. That itself was a significant improvement...

“Federal fishery managers voted Sunday to open waters off the coast of California to commercial salmon fishing for the first time since 2022, with the population rebounding after wet winters ended a long drought. The decision by the Pacific Fishery Management Council to allow limited commercial and recreational salmon fishing off the coast is a win for the state’s salmon fishing industry, which has grappled with years of season closures due to dwindling fish stocks. The council, which manages fisheries off the West Coast, barred commercial salmon fishing off California for the past three years. It voted last year to allow some recreational fishing for the first time since 2022.” From Associated...

“The southern Appalachians hold an estimated 1.43 million metric tons of lithium oxide, concentrated in the Carolinas, and the northern Appalachians hold an estimated 900,000 metric tons, concentrated in Maine and New Hampshire, according to estimates in a new USGS scientific paper published in Natural Resources Research. The lithium is present in pegmatites, large-grained rocks similar to granite. ‘This research shows that the Appalachians contain enough lithium to help meet the nation’s growing needs – a major contribution to U.S. mineral security, at a time when global lithium demand is rising rapidly,’ said USGS Director Ned Mamula. ‘USGS mineral science is the leading edge in the effort to...

You may not know what a ADM-3, a TV910, or a H1420 are, but you probably have at least heard of a VT-100. They are all terminals from around the same time, but the DEC VT-100 is the terminal that practically everything today at least somewhat emulates. Even though a real VT-100 is rare, since it defined what have become ANSI escape sequences, most computers you’ve used in the last few decades speak some variation of the VT-100’s language. [Nikhil] wanted to see if you could use a VT-100 for real work today.
While the VT-100 wasn’t a general-purpose computer, it did have an 8080 inside. It only had about 3K of RAM, which was enough to act as a serial terminal. A USB serial port and a terminal with modern...

The Orielles “Wasp”
The Orielles’ music mostly exists within the aesthetic boundaries of post-punk, but there’s a larger ambition to it that nudges their more recent material closer to film scores, conceptual art, and rock opera. The songs imply grand scale and dramatic arcs without providing a lot of clear cut narrative, though it’s easy to track the feelings. “Wasps” is something of an outlier, as it’s not as wistful or digressive as other tracks on Only You Left, but it’s a crucial bit of tension and catharsis on a record that often sounds like a field recording of a melancholy daydream. The arrangment is gnarled and absurdly tight, very similar to a lot of songs by The Smile. Esmé...

What started with a fixer-upper in 1998 has grown into a three-building compound shaped by changing codes—and long-term thinking.In 1998, when architects Lisa Chadbourne and Daren Doss bought a modest Craftsman on a large, slightly scruffy lot in Seattle’s Central District, they were drawn less to the home itself than to the property’s potential. "We always thought, wow, we could do something with this," Lisa recalls. At the time, "something" meant fixing up the existing house and, eventually, carving out space to work. In 2005, after a zoning change allowed detached accessory dwelling units, the couple—who are the founders and principals of Chadbourne + Doss Architects—built a compact backyard...
