Peitschen und Pistolen - Italien: Video deckt illegales Pferderennen auf #News #Nachrichten

Not good news - but a very useful bit of research.
Short summary: When it gets too hot or too dry, trees do not add wood, even though photosynthesis continues. So while trees do store carbon, it might not be as much as we thought.
Trees may store less planet-heating carbon than hoped, study suggests

CISA issued a directive today reflecting the growing recognition that patching based primarily on severity scores is no longer sufficient in an AI-driven environment where defenders face more vulnerabilities than they can realistically remediate at once.
Check out my latest CSO piece for more details.
Many thanks to Sasha Romanosky of Rand, Jerry Gamblin of RogoLabs, and Michael Roytman of Empirical Security for their insight.

CISA tells agencies to patch smarter, not harder — foreshadowing broader industry practice
A new CISA directive moves federal agencies beyond severity scores and toward a risk-based patching model that prioritizes real-world exploitation, asset exposure, and attacker impact — a framework many security leaders see as the future of vulnerability management.

Die #AfD lässt Migrant:innen die Straße putzen: "Wir [...] haben für Ordnung gesorgt. [...] Die Deutschen haben die Schnauze voll!" - nur ein katholischer Pfarrer schlägt Alarm.
Die Parallelen zu den entwürdigenden "Reibpartien" in Wien 1938 oder zum Reichsarbeitsdienst (Oberster Leitsatz: „Keine Wohlfahrtsunterstützung ohne Arbeit“) sind unübersehbar.

Scientists built a battery-free device that turns sunlight into fuel
Scientists have developed an artificial photosynthesis system that essentially regulates itself, eliminating the need for batteries used in many current designs. The key innovation is an electrolyzer that automatically adapts to changing sunlight by altering its electrical properties as it heats up. This keeps solar fuel production more stable while reducing cost and complexity.
