Okay, this is an interesting one for TLS nerds out there: https://opossum-attack.com/
This is somewhat related to previous research where I was part of about STARTTLS. The idea here is to exploit the fact that the opportunistic and non-opportunistic TLS variants of protocols are sometimes different.

Microplastics are everywhere—but our methods to track them are all over the place
A new study from the University of Portsmouth has highlighted the growing role of citizen science in tackling one of the planet's most pervasive pollution problems: microplastics and mesoplastics. While researchers often warn that a lack of standardized protocols risks muddying the waters, this research shows that public involvement could be key to plugging the data gaps and that comparability rather than conformity is key.

FPV Protocols Explained (CRSF, SBUS, DSHOT, ACCST, PPM, PWM and more)
This post will give a broad overview of all the common RC protocols in FPV, and how they fit into the communication system in an FPV drone, and what their differences are.

Two years ago voters in Colorado legalized therapeutic use of #psilocybin. The state took its time setting up protocols for licensing practitioners and therapists. A clinic opened up this past week here in town. They’ve got a 200 person waiting list for clients. You have to prove to them you’re not just looking for recreational use, mores the pity.

Good explanation of MCP and A2A.

If MCP is the USB-C of AI agents, A2A is their Ethernet

The DOGE team at SSA might have violated FISMA and other laws by not following security protocols as spelled out in NIST's SP 800-53, which are mandatory for all government agencies.
It's no surprise then that a whistleblower is warning that we have lost the ability to see who is accessing 300 million Americans' most sensitive information after DOGE moved SSA data to their own Amazon cloud instance.
Thanks to John Skinner, former project lead for 18F, for his expert i…

The complaint accuses DOGE of bypassing security protocols to move Americans’ sensitive personal data outside federal oversight and onto an insecure AWS cloud instance, potentially violating established security practices and several laws.

LibreQoS Bufferbloat Test
Some of my company (IWL) products can create bufferbloat situations, but testing how the end-point protocols react is a separate concern.
I've written in the past about the inadequacy of "speed test" tool and how things like "iperf" can easily be (and often are) mis-interpreted. (I'll add some links).

A Compartmental Model for Epidemiology with Human Behavior and Stochastic Effects

A Compartmental Model for Epidemiology with Human Behavior and Stochastic Effects
We propose a compartmental model for epidemiology wherein the population is split into groups with either comply or refuse to comply with protocols designed to slow the spread of a disease. Parallel to the disease spread, we assume that noncompliance with protocols spreads as a social contagion. We begin by deriving the reproductive ratio for a deterministic version of the model, and use this to fully characterize the local stability of disease free equilibrium points. We then append the determ…
