Lawmakers in both houses of Congress are demanding answers from the U.S. Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) after KrebsOnSecurity reported this week that a CISA contractor intentionally published AWS GovCloud keys and a vast trove of other agency secrets on a public GitHub account. The inquiry comes as CISA is still struggling to contain the breach and invalidate the leaked credentials. On May 18, KrebsOnSecurity reported that a CISA contractor with administrative access to the agency’s code development platform had created a public GitHub profile called “Private-CISA” that included plaintext credentials to dozens of internal CISA systems. Experts who…

Support CleanTechnica’s work through a Substack subscription or on Stripe. There’s vast divergence of opinion on how useful AI systems, particularly LLMs (Large Language Models), are for our society. Some claim they bring us a massive leap forward and are completely worth all the money and energy being put into them. Others see them as incremental improvements (or worse) that are massively overhyped and over-invested in. Personally, you can put me more in the latter camp. Ten years ago, you could Google something and find a good source to answer your question. Now, people Google something and get the AI-provided…

My iOS app is live on the App Store and accessible via direct link, but it does not appear in search results when searching the exact app name. Background: the app was ranking #44 in its category on launch day. After submitting a new binary for review, it disappeared from search entirely. The new binary has since been approved and is live, but search indexing has not been restored. Current status in App Store Connect: Ready for Distribution, distribution set to Public, available in most countries and regions. Things I already tried: refreshed the pricing schedule by resetting the free…

What you need to knowA rumor puts Samsung’s wild rollable phone back on the table, as a patent for a “Galaxy Z Rollable” reportedly surfaces.The patent (and provided mockup renders) suggest the phone would slide out from right to left, bringing its raised camera island with it for a tablet-like experience.We’ve seen Samsung show off rollable phone concepts in the past at CES 2024, and there were reports later that year that said it was focusing on its development.One thing we didn’t expect was to hear about a Samsung rollable phone, yet that’s what we’ve got, and illustrations to boot.Tipster…

Across all industries, AI is forever transforming the way work gets done.  For those of us working in software development and delivery, AI coding assistants are now essential for engineering teams. But the days of simply handing out licenses in hopes of success have passed.  Today, most developers use AI assistants daily, yet results vary. One team might see huge productivity gains. Another might struggle with buggy code and delays. The AI tool isn’t the issue — management is.  In this article, I’ll explore the gains, risks and necessary steps to turn AI speed into lasting value. I’ll share findings…

Architecture issues discovered late in a system’s lifecycle and are inherent to its design are more expensive (or may even be impossible) to fix. Often this is because issues discovered later in development stem from early decisions that have far-reaching software consequences and require major modifications. Identifying those issues that are architectural risks early in design can result in significant cost savings over the life of the system. In this blog post, adapted from a recently published report, we propose an approach that draws from Agile Architecture Risk Management (AARM) and Continuous Risk Management (CRM) processes to create a practice…

Alemnis AG is proud to introduce MINDS (Mechanical Innovative Nanotechnology Diagnostic Software), a new software platform designed to help laboratories automate complex mechanical testing workflows and improve reproducibility. As mechanical testing becomes increasingly sophisticated, from in-situ experiments and coupled environmental testing to micropillars, thin films, MEMS, and biomaterials laboratories face growing pressure to execute experiments consistently across multiple users, instruments, and long-term research programs. In many laboratories, advanced experiments still rely heavily on manual configuration, operator expertise, fragmented procedures, and separate post- processing tools. As a result, subtle differences in how workflows are executed can introduce variability and make results…

Esri Ireland, the market leader in Geographic Information Systems (GIS), has announced that Waterways Ireland has developed an interactive digital map exploring the rich heritage of the Grand Canal. The map, titled A Boatman’s Journey, brings the public on an immersive storytelling experience across Ireland, from Dublin’s docks in the east to Shannon Harbour in the west. It was built using Esri’s ArcGIS technology. Waterways Ireland is responsible for restoring, developing, and promoting over 1,100 kilometres of inland waterways across Ireland and Northern Ireland. The Grand Canal, completed in 1804, was a marvel of engineering and a crucial artery for…

Rate Limiting vs. Quota Reservations: when to use each You have a single gpt-oss-20b deployment. Six teams want to use it. Marketing is running batch summarization jobs at 3am. The fraud team needs sub-second responses 24/7. An intern’s Jupyter notebook is accidentally hammering the endpoint in a tight loop. And your GPU bill is already eye-watering. Sound familiar? DataRobot gives you two tools to solve this: Rate Limiting and Quota Reservations. This post explains when to reach for each, backed by a real load test example on a staging deployment. Rate Limits and Quota Reservations, in plain English Rate Limits…
