The underground world of creating and streaming Super Mario World-based ROM hacks continues to gain popularity. This popularity is a tribute to the creativity of gamers and the quality of the original 30 year old video game’s mechanics. Over the past decade, incredible ROM hacks like Grand Poo World 1 and 2, Invictus, and Dram World have brought joy (and horror) to the Mario community. Sure, Nintendo released Mario Maker and Mario Maker 2, but I love SMW Central patches because they allow all of us to create, much like open source. The most anticipated hack in years, Grand Poo…

A feasibility study to explore the potential for Ireland’s first full-scale marine biorefinery has been officially launched by the Mara Blue initiative, with support from the Smart Regions Enterprise Innovation Scheme and Cork County Council. The project is being led by Munster Technological University (MTU) in collaboration with Pure Ocean Algae, and the Castletownbere Fishermen’s Co-Op, and represents a significant step towards exploring Ireland’s potential to be a leader in the sustainable blue bioeconomy. The Mara Blue feasibility study is being co-funded by the Government of Ireland and the European Union through the ERDF Southern, Eastern & Midland Regional Programme 2021-27. The Smart Regions Scheme, implemented and…

SCTE, the leader in broadband telecommunications, has opened its call for content for its TechExpo26 and marked a historic milestone: for the first time, a programmer will co-host the event. AMC Networks will join Charter Communications to help shape one of North America’s largest broadband conferences, taking place September 29–October 1 at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta.This milestone reflects the industry’s ongoing convergence, as operators and media providers increasingly align network innovation with viewer experiences. Under the theme “Network (R)evolution: Convergence Powered. Experience Perfected.,” the event will convene global leaders across broadband, mobile, streaming, policy and technology to…

Evaluation We evaluated Perch 2.0 using a few-shot linear probe on marine tasks, such as distinguishing different baleen whale species or different killer whale subpopulations. Its performance was compared against pre-trained models that are supported in our Perch Hoplite repository for agile modeling and transfer learning. They include Perch 2.0, Perch 1.0, SurfPerch, and the multispecies whale model.For underwater data evaluation, we used three datasets: NOAA PIPAN, ReefSet, and DCLDE.NOAA PIPAN: An annotated subset of the NOAA NCEI Passive Acoustic Data Archive from the NOAA Pacific Islands Fisheries Science Center recordings. It includes labels used in our prior whale models…

For years, a data wall has separated the world of application development from the world of analytics. Developers have been forced to bridge this gap with brittle ETL pipelines just to move data from an operational PostgreSQL instance to a data lake. This fragmentation does more than just slow down delivery; it creates a data tax of duplicated storage and a persistent lag between reality and insight.Today, we are breaking down that wall with the General Availability (GA) of Azure Databricks Lakebase, a milestone also announced by Microsoft.Lakebase is managed, serverless Postgres that’s optimized for the Databricks Platform on Azure. It…

And that is quite a thought. Sure, we senior craftspeople celebrate writing elegant code, constructing beautiful class hierarchies, and designing working software. But I will admit that a lot of the work is tedious, and having an unflagging coder grinding out the “dirty work” is a really nice thing. But it can become more than that. Your coding apprentice can build, at your direction, pretty much anything now. The task becomes more like conducting an orchestra than playing in it. Not all members of the orchestra want to conduct, but given that is where things are headed, I think we all need to consider…

South Korea’s National Tax Service (NTS) has found itself in the middle of a deeply embarrassing — and costly — blunder after accidentally handing thieves the master key to a seized cryptocurrency wallet.The method? Publishing the access key in a press release, in plain sight for the entire world to see.Last Thursday, the NTS issued a triumphant press release to the media detailing how it had taken action against 124 high-value tax evaders, and boasting about the seizure of digital assets worth 8.1 billion won — roughly US $5.6 million.And in that press release, officials included photographs of some of…

Crops grown within the giant dome will meet the needs of ten local families, at this stage, in the vision of the group. A pilot project in Wiltshire explores the possibilities of turning landfill sites into low carbon, affordable fruit and vegetable production hubs. Unveiled by Sustain Wiltshire in Royal Wooton Bassett, the project appears somewhat novel in its combination of landfill waste-to-energy technology with controlled-environment agriculture – the latter taking the form of a positively-pressured growing dome three times the size of a standard tennis court, and twice the height of a London double decker bus. As the group…
