The jemalloc memory allocator was first conceived in early 2004, and hasbeen in public use for about 20 years now. Thanks to the nature of open source software licensing,jemalloc will remain publicly available indefinitely. But active upstream development has come to anend. This post briefly desc...

I love these bus stop ads Pasadena is running. And that they properly use “fewer” instead of “less” #pasadena

GNSS Spoofing Detection Based on Opportunistic Position Information
The limited or no protection for civilian Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signals makes spoofing attacks relatively easy. With modern mobile devices often featuring network interfaces, state-of-the-art signals of opportunity (SOP) schemes can provide accurate network positions in replacement of GNSS. The use of onboard inertial sensors can also assist in the absence of GNSS, possibly in the presence of jammers. The combination of SOP and inertial sensors has received limited attention…

Cowboys hint at position change for explosive Pro Bowler to solve RB problem https://www.sportingnews.com/us/nfl/dallas-cowboys/news/cowboys-hint-position-change-explosive-pro-bowler-solv…

When I say that I wish the bubble would burst so we could start having actual conversation, this is the kind of thing I’m talking about.
In the meantime, not being a researcher myself in any kind of position to critique the paper, I’m happy to just look at it and cherry-pick the conclusion that I think is unequivocally helpful regardless: we all (students in school, students of life) should cultivate active, engaged minds that work with ideas by •doing• and •creating• instead of simply passively receiving.

Joint Optimization of Multi-UAV Deployment and 3D Positioning in Traffic-Aware Aerial Networks
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have emerged as a key enabler for next-generation wireless networks due to their on-demand deployment, high mobility, and ability to provide Line-of-Sight (LoS) connectivity. These features make UAVs particularly well-suited for dynamic and mission-critical applications such as intelligent transportation systems and emergency communications. However, effectively positioning multiple UAVs in real-time to meet non-uniform, time-varying traffic demands remains a sig…

Memo: Intel's manufacturing VP said Intel plans to cut 15%-20% of staff, starting in July, "to meet our affordability challenges and current financial position" (Mike Rogoway/Oregonian)
