Due to the ongoing lawsuit, the Ho-Chunk Nation has moved to block Kalshi from offering sports contracts for the duration of the legal battle. According to legal documents shared by gaming lawyer Daniel Wallach, the Ho-Chunk Nation has moved for a preliminary injunction to prevent Kalshi from offering sports event contracts on the Tribe’s lands for the duration of the lawsuit, arguing that it’s in violation of its State-Tribal Compact. The lawsuit in question has been filed in the US District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin. It’s centered around the argument that Kalshi’s sports event contracts are not…
Another draw is that the app is built on end-to-end encryption (E2EE) privacy in which the private keys used to secure messages are stored on the device itself. This should make it impossible to eavesdrop on private messages without either having physical access to the device or remotely infecting it with malware. GhostPairing demonstrates that a social engineering attack can bypass this. Interestingly, although still possible, the attack is less practical when asking users to pair via QR codes. That offers some reassurance for users of messaging apps such as Signal, which only allows pairing requests via QR Codes. Defending…
A new brain implant could significantly reshape how people interact with computers while offering new treatment possibilities for conditions such as epilepsy, spinal cord injury, ALS, stroke, and blindness. By creating a minimally invasive, high-throughput communication path to the brain, it has the potential to support seizure control and help restore motor, speech, and visual abilities. The promise of this technology comes from its extremely small size paired with its ability to transmit data at very high speeds. Developed through a collaboration between Columbia University, NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, Stanford University, and the University of Pennsylvania, the device is a brain-computer interface…
If you’re in the market for insurance right now, keep an eye out for scammers in the mix. They’re out in full force once again this open enrollment season. As people across the U.S. sign up for, renew, or change their health insurance plans, scammers want to cash in as people rush to get their coverage set. And scammers have several factors working in their favor. For starters, many people find the insurance marketplace confusing, frustrating, and even intimidating, all feelings that scammers can take advantage of. Moreover, concerns about getting the right level of coverage at an affordable price…
Sales executives at Atlassian noticed a steady increase in the number of strategic customers requesting information about its emissions reduction and climate goals throughout 2025. Those questions prompted deeper conversations between the software company’s business and sustainability leaders as it strategizes about how to win those deals, especially as investments in artificial intelligence accelerate. Now, Atlassian’s net-zero aspirations are factored into strategic sales conversations. “It’s never going to be 90 percent of our revenue, so I want to be really pragmatic,” said Jessica Hyman, chief sustainability officer at Atlassian. “But what I position it as is a signal. This is…
SwiftUI’s .task modifier inherits its actor context from the surrounding function. If you call .task inside a view’s body property, the async operation will run on the main actor because View.body is (semi-secretly) annotated with @MainActor. However, if you call .task from a helper property or function that isn’t @MainActor-annotated, the async operation will run in the cooperative thread pool. Here’s an example. Notice the two .task modifiers in body and helperView. The code is identical in both, yet only one of them compiles — in helperView, the call to a main-actor-isolated function fails because we’re not on the main…
A decade-long partnership between Microsoft and Red Hat has redefined what open innovation means, empowering customers with flexible, secure, and scalable solutions across the cloud. Ten years ago, Microsoft and Red Hat began a partnership grounded in open source and enterprise cloud innovation. This year, we celebrate a decade of collaboration. Our journey together has helped customers accelerate hybrid cloud transformation, empower developers to innovate, and strengthen the open source community to drive modern application innovation. The partnership that redefined enterprise cloud In 2015, running mission-critical Linux workloads on Microsoft Azure was considered bold and visionary. Ten years later, our…
The Redmi Note 15 Pro+, unveiled a few months ago in China, made its international debut today. However, the international model doesn’t share all the specs with its Chinese counterpart. For starters, the Chinese Redmi Note 15 Pro+ came with a 50MP primary camera, but the international Redmi Note 15 Pro+ features a 200MP HPE primary camera with 2x and 4x in-sensor zoom. Its camera lens also supports five focal lengths, ranging from 23mm to 92mm. The international version’s primary camera is joined by an 8MP ultrawide camera, like the Chinese model, but it drops the 50MP telephoto unit. Another…
A model-independent approach reduces uncertainty in hadronic light-by-light scattering, strengthening Standard Model tests Particle waves (Courtesy: iStock/Piranka) The gyromagnetic ratio is the ratio of a particle’s magnetic moment and its angular momentum. This value determines how a particle responds to a magnetic field. According to classical physics, muons should have a gyromagnetic ratio equal to 2. However, owing to quantum mechanics, there is a small difference between the expected gyromagnetic ratio and the observed value. This discrepancy is known as the anomalous magnetic moment. The anomalous magnetic moment is incredibly sensitive to quantum fluctuations. It can be used to test…
Remembering the WiFi password when on a guest network is never easy. Even worse is when it’s no longer posted and someone else is asking you for it. Luckily there’s a built in Windows command to recover the password of a given WiFi network. The Shell Code Open cmd and execute the following command: netsh wlan show profile name=”David Walsh’s Network” key=clear The result of the command, assuming the network is found, is a long text output with a variety of information about the network. To get the see the password for the network, look under the “Security settings” heading…
