Cybercriminals are using AI to execute highly targeted attacks at scale, causing people to unwittingly send money and sensitive information or simply open themselves up to theft.
Hackers are now able to rent generative AI large language models created in the underground cybercrime community to help formulate text-based scams.
But just as generative AI is enhancing and scaling social engineering attacks, so too is it giving defenders a leg up.
Interesting! The Swedes have found that if they add the enzyme endolysin to antibiotics, that they can work again against resistant bacteria.

Good Morning #Canada
It's #FridayThe13th, which is a lucky day for me as 13 is my favourite number. 13th place was also Canada’s rank in the 2024 Happiest Country study, but unfortunately, we fell to 18th place in 2025. IMO, having #PeePee trash Canada and the government incessantly for the past few years has contributed to that drop. We also have a lot of work to do to match the happy Nordic countries in social and economic support.

Choosing a hash function for 2030 and beyond: SHA-2 vs SHA-3 vs BLAKE3
As everyone knows, "temporary fixes" are nothing but temporary.
Unfortunately, the same is true for cryptography: unless security is your core value-proposition, crypto algorithms are almost never updated, and that's how we end up with SHA1-hashed password in 2024 🤦♂️

It's always a good day when you have "always comb foo = bar" and using foo instead of bar changes the run time of your simulation by almost 100K clock cycles.
I have to assume this is a Vivado simulator bug present in both 2024.1 and 2025.1, but don't yet have a fully reduced test case other than an always_ff block somehow having input and output changing on the same clock edge.
“Excursion (same-day) travel to the United States by automobile dropped abruptly at the start of 2025, after holding consistently positive throughout 2024. Same-day returns fell by 40.3% year over year in May 2025”
That is an extremely high amount of change. After September 11, it was in the 30% range.
I miss my cross-border trips, but it’s just a bad risk reward calculation right now. #canada
