Le rédacteur en chef du quotidien panarabe “Al-Araby Al-Jadid” revient sur l’épisode des excuses présentées le 8 mars par le président iranien aux pétromonarchies du Golfe, balayées dans la foulée par une salve de missiles et de drones tirés contre ces pays. Pour lui, les Gardiens de la révolution tiennent désormais totalement les rênes et font fi des autres pôles du pouvoir.

Meta’s Oversight Board wants the company to start taking AI labeling seriously to protect its users from online misinformation. | Image: Cath Virginia / The Verge, Getty Images Meta's methods for identifying deepfakes are "not robust or comprehensive enough" to handle how quickly misinformation spreads during armed conflicts like the Iran war. That's according to the Meta Oversight Board - a semi-independent body that guides the company's content moderation practices - which is now calling on Meta to overhaul how it surfaces and labels AI-generated content across Facebook, Instagram, and Threads.
The call for action stems from an investigation into a fake AI video of alleged damage to buildings in Israel...

c'est une app macOS qui vous permet de lancer plusieurs agents Claude Code ou Codex en parallèle, chacun dans son propre worktree git histoire qu'ils ne se marchent pas dessus. Le tout est développé par Melty Labs, et c'est gratuit !! (enfin l'app en elle-même, parce que les tokens Claude ou OpenAI, c'est vous qui casquez hein ^^).
Vous ouvrez l'app, Cmd+N pour créer un workspace, et ensuite, chaque agent bosse dans son coin sur sa propre branche git comme ça y'a pas de conflits ni de merge foireux au milieu du boulot ! Et grâce à cet outil, vous voyez d'un coup d'oeil ce que chacun fabrique via le diff viewer intégré. Ensuite, vous reviewez, et quand c'est bon vous mergez. Comme un chef de...

The LinkedIn post seemed like yet another scam job offer, but Katya was desperate enough to click. After college, she’d struggled to make a living as a freelance journalist, gone to grad school, then pivoted to what she hoped would be a more stable career in content marketing — only to find AI had automated much of the work. This company was called Crossing Hurdles, and it promised copywriting jobs starting at $45 per hour. Katya clicked and was taken to a page for another company, called Mercor, where she was instructed to interview on-camera with an AI named Melvin. “It just seemed like the sketchiest thing in the world,” Katya says. She closed the tab. But a few weeks later, still unemployed, she...

If you think about it, you can’t be sure that what you see for the color red, for example, is what anyone else in the world actually sees. All you can be sure of is that we’ve all been trained to identify whatever we do see as red just like everyone else. Now, think about animal vision. Most people know that dogs don’t see as many colors as we do. On the other hand, the birds and the bees can see into ultraviolet. What would the world look like with extra colors? That’s the question researchers want to answer with this system for duplicating different animals’ views of the world.
Of course, this would be easy if you were thinking about dogs or cats. They can’t see the difference between red and...

Some PCB corrosion on the bottom of the 1541 drive. (Credit: TheRetroChannel, YouTube)
Recently [TheRetroChannel] came across an interesting failure mode on a Commodore 1541 5.25″ floppy disk drive, in the form of the activity LED blinking just once after power-up with the drive motor continuously spinning. Since the Flash Codes that Commodore implemented and bothered to document start at 2 flashes (for RAM-related Zero Page), this raised the question of what fault this drive had, and whether a single flash is some kind of undocumented error code.
A cursory check showed that the heads were okay and not shorted, ruling out a common fault with the used floppy mechanism. Cleaning up the corrosion on IC sockets...

Admit it. If you haven’t created your own little programming language, you’ve probably at least thought about it. [Muffed] decided to create a unique — and sweet — programming language that uses M&M (or, at least, M&M-like) candies as the building block of programs.
If this sounds strange, it is because, honestly, it is. It all started when a packet of GEMS (the Cadbury’s version of M&Ms)  spilled and randomly fell in the shape of an arrow. There are only six symbols corresponding to the colors in a package. You create your program by arranging the candies and creating a digital image of the result. In practice, you’ll probably use ASCII text to represent your candy layout and let the compiler...

Some of the universe’s densest objects can twist, stretch, and resonate in ways that challenge even the most seasoned physicists. Neutron stars, the remnants of massive stars that have exploded as supernovae, cram more mass than the Sun into a sphere barely 20 kilometers wide. Their gravity is billions of times stronger than Earth’s, and their internal matter behaves unlike anything we can directly observe on our planet. For decades, astronomers have speculated about the interiors of these cosmic heavyweights. Protons and electrons may fuse into neutrons under crushing pressure, but theories also suggest layers of heavy elements, free protons, and even exotic phases like quantum superfluids and...

Most people see that garden shed as little more than a place to store some gardening tools in, but if you’re like [Dr. Semiconductor], then what you see is a potential cleanroom for semiconductor manufacturing. As ridiculous as this may sound, the basic steps behind the different levels of cleanrooms work just as well for a multi-million dollar fab as they do for for a basic shed.
Key to everything is HEPA filtration along with positive pressure, to constantly push clean air into the cleanroom, while preventing dirty air from flowing in. The shed was also split into two sections, the first room once you enter it being the the...

Meanwhile, Kalshi is reportedly working to attract more women to its platform in an effort to grow its user base.
