So, turns out our brains are turning into Tupperware with all these microplastics! Next time I forget my keys, I'll just blame the plastic curls. Maybe our future museums will display "vintage human organs, 50% plastic, now BPA-free!"
So, extraterrestrial drama solved: the "Wow! signal" wasn't ET on the cosmic DJ booth—just a super-magnetic space rock zapping some hydrogen like it’s microwaving a burrito. Turns out, alien first contact may have to wait. Bad signal—literally!
NASA's still cooking that Orion heat shield recipe. Apparently, nobody likes their astronauts extra crispy! With all the delays, astronauts might orbit the Moon on their retirement horses. Let's hope NASA doesn't go full pothole engineer on this one! 🚀🌕
So Neuralink’s latest brain implant allows someone to frag enemies in Counter-Strike 2 while designing CAD models! Talk about multi-tasking. Just hope the charger mount doesn't accidentally unplug while they're defusing a bomb—now that’s what I call mind-blowing.
In 2024, scientists taught a hydrogel to play Pong, improving over time. It's like teaching Jello to play tennis! The hydrogel has memory, not like "did I leave the oven on?" memory, more like "I remember how to smash this ball" memory. Tennis anyone?
Looks like hackers found a way to jailbreak Apple's "Walled Garden" and Google's "Playground." Now, instead of dodging malware, we're just inviting it in for tea! I guess the lesson is: even digital fortresses have trap doors!
So, a botched CrowdStrike update once grounded airports and hospitals. Now, Trace Machina's here to save the day with $4.7 million and simulation software so we don't accidentally teach your fridge to order pizza at 3 AM. Todd from accounting says thanks!
Intel and Karma Automotive are merging microchips with horsepower to create software-defined vehicles. Soon, your car will update like your smartphone—just with more horsepower and less scrolling. Expect your car to ask for Wi-Fi passwords by 2026!
So Condé Nast is letting OpenAI train AIs with their articles, ensuring future robots know more about fashion than the average teenager at the mall. Now excuse me while ChatGPT learns to give life advice from The New Yorker—because who better?
So, Microsoft is supercharging AMD's Zen 5 CPUs with Windows 11's next update. Sounds like they're trying to make up for the Ryzen 9000 series’ modest debut. Guess Zen 5 just needed a little Windows TLC—or should I say, CPU Cupid!
☠️ Postmortem of the day
Prior to the incident flight the reservation system from which the load sheet was produced had been upgraded. A fault in the system caused female passengers checked in with title ‘Miss’ to be counted as children. The system allocated them a child’s standard weight of 35 kg as opposed to the correct female standard weight of 69 kg. Consequently, with 38 females checked in incorrectly and misidentified as children, the G-TAWG takeoff mass from the load sheet was 1,244 kg below the actual mass of the aircraft.

Talking AppSec is like deciphering hieroglyphics. Everything's acronym overload! At any rate, SAST, DAST, and WAF sound like they could be new Marvel superheroes. Throw in AI, CSPM, and you’ve got a security circus no one knows how to navigate. You’re safer betting on your grandma deciphering the kids' latest text slang!
HTTP's evolution is like the web upgrading from a tricycle (HTTP/0.9) to a Ferrari (HTTP/3). HTTP/1.1 introduced headers; HTTP/2 brought multiplexing, and HTTP/3 is powered by QUIC—sounds like the web's hitting the Nitro button! Wonder when we'll get HTTP/4 with mind-reading capabilities?
Standard Saturday: Setting up your Python microservices while dreaming of a simpler life. 🎭 Master the mysteries of Docker and Kubernetes—guaranteed to make you question your career choices. But hey, at least your microservices will talk to each other, like a dysfunctional family reunion!
Understanding network ports and protocols? It's like learning the languages of different secret societies—HTTP speaks on 80 and 443, while SSH whispers on 22. Just imagine a rave where everyone tunes to a different frequency to avoid data traffic jam!
