»npm als Sicherheitsrisiko — Warum Angriffe zunehmen und wie man vorbeugen kann:
npm bleibt anfällig für Supply-Chain-Angriffe. Woran liegt das, was tun npm und GitHub dagegen und wie kann man seine eigenen Projekte schützen?«
Ich pers. bin kein JavaScript Freund aber nutze es für Web-Anwendungen. Ja es ist aufwändig die Libs und deren Abhängigkeiten durchzusehen und hindert leider auch von Hackern nicht.

Millionenstrafe gegen X: Musk fordert Abschaffung der EU, Account wird gesperrt
Die Reaktionen auf eine moderate Geldstrafe gegen X sind harsch, der US-Außenminister spricht gar von einem „Angriff“. Die Plattform selbst reagiert unerwartet.

Q&A with Mohsin Hamid, co-founder of Equator magazine, which aims to be a "post-American" magazine of politics and culture, avoiding a "Western-centric gaze" (Jem Bartholomew/Columbia Journalism Review)

A magazine born of anger, heartbreak, and hope. 
Equator promises to move beyond a Western-centric perspective. Can it?

While politicians often avoid answering questions,
Speaker Mike Johnson’s habit of doing so is particularly noteworthy
because of the prominent place the speaker occupies in government.
“Very few officers are mentioned specifically in the constitution;
the speakership is one of them,”
“I would say it’s absolutely the responsibility of the speaker to keep up with what the president is saying and doing.”
But there are at least 14 examples of Johnson saying he…

LATTA: Langevin-Anchored Test-Time Adaptation for Enhanced Robustness and Stability
Test-time adaptation (TTA) aims to adapt a pretrained model to distribution shifts using only unlabeled test data. While promising, existing methods like Tent suffer from instability and can catastrophically forget the source knowledge, especially with small batch sizes or challenging corruptions. We argue that this arises from overly deterministic updates on a complex loss surface. In this paper, we introduce Langevin-Anchored Test-Time Adaptation (LATTA), a novel approach that regularizes ada…

StaR-KVQA: Structured Reasoning Traces for Implicit-Knowledge Visual Question Answering
Knowledge-based Visual Question Answering (KVQA) requires models to ground entities in images and reason over factual knowledge. We study its implicit-knowledge variant, IK-KVQA, where a multimodal large language model (MLLM) is the sole knowledge source, without external retrieval. Yet, MLLMs lack explicit reasoning supervision and produce inconsistent justifications, and generalize poorly after standard supervised fine-tuning (SFT). We present StaR-KVQA (Structured Reasoning Traces for IK-KVQ…
