In Last-Minute Move, Canada Rescinds Digital Services Tax, Restarts
Negotiations (newsweek.com) 17

Posted by EditorDavid on Monday June 30, 2025 @04:34AM from the
O-Canada dept.
"Canada and the United States have resumed trade negotiations,"
reports Newsweek, "after Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney agreed
to rescind the country's digital services tax on U.S. technology
companies." The development follows President Donald Trump's
announcement on Friday that he was suspending all trade talks with
Canada "effective immediately" over the tax policy... Canada's quick
reversal signals the high stakes involved in maintaining trade
relationships with the United States, particularly given the
countries' deeply integrated economies.

Carney's office confirmed on Sunday that both leaders have agreed to
restart negotiations after Canada committed to abandoning the 3
percent levy targeting major U.S. tech giants including Amazon,
Google, Meta, Uber, and Airbnb. The tax was scheduled to take effect
Monday and would have applied retroactively, creating an estimated $2
billion bill for American companies. The conflict escalated rapidly
after Canada's Finance Department confirmed Friday that companies
would still be required to make their first digital tax payments
Monday, despite ongoing negotiations. The tax targeted revenue
generated from Canadian users rather than corporate profits, making
it particularly burdensome for technology companies operating
internationally...

Canada's decision to rescind the tax came "in anticipation" of
reaching a broader trade agreement, according to government
officials. With negotiations resuming, both countries will likely
focus on addressing broader trade issues beyond the digital services
tax.

After 45 Years, 74-Year-Old Spreadsheet Legend/EFF Cofounder Mitch
Kapor Gets His MIT Degree (bostonglobe.com) 17

Posted by EditorDavid on Monday June 30, 2025 @12:34AM from the
finishing-your-homework dept.
Mitch Kapor dropped out of MIT's business school in 1979 — and had
soon cofounded the pioneering spreadsheet company Lotus. He also
cofounded the EFF, was the founding chair of the Mozilla Foundation,
and is now a billionaire (and an VC investor at Kapor Capital).

45 years later, when the 74-year-old was invited to give a guest
lecture at MIT's business school last year by an old friend
(professor Bill Aulet), he'd teased the billionaire that "there's
only one problem, Mitch, I see here you haven't graduated from MIT."

The Boston Globe tells the story... After graduating from Yale in
1971 and bouncing around for almost a decade as "a lost and wandering
soul," working as a disc jockey, a Transcendental Meditation teacher,
and a mental health counselor, Kapor said he became entranced by the
possibilities of the new Apple II personal computer. He started
writing programs to solve statistics problems and analyze data, which
caught the attention of Boston-area software entrepreneurs Dan
Bricklin and Bob Frankston, who co-created VisiCalc, one of the first
spreadsheet programs. They introduced Kapor to their California-based
software publisher, Personal Software.

Midway through Kapor's 12-month master's program, the publisher
offered him the then-princely sum of about $20,000 if he'd adapt his
stats programs to work with VisiCalc. To finish the project, he took
a leave from MIT, but then he decided to leave for good to take a
full-time job at Personal. Comparing his decision to those of other
famed tech founder dropouts, like Bill Gates, Kapor said he felt the
startup world was calling to him. "It was just so irresistible," he
said. "It felt like I could not let another moment go by without
taking advantage of this opportunity or the window would close...."

When Aulet made his joke on the phone call with his old friend in
2024, Kapor had largely retired from investing and realized that he
wanted to complete his degree. "I don't know what prompted me, but it
started a conversation" with MIT about the logistics of finally
graduating, Kapor said. By the time Kapor gave the lecture in March,
Aulet had discovered Kapor was only a few courses short. MIT does not
give honorary degrees, but school officials allow students to make up
for missing classes with an independent study and a written thesis.
Kapor decided to write a paper on the roots and development of his
investing strategy. "It's timely, it's highly relevant, and I have
things to say," he said.

One 77-page thesis later, Kapor, donning a cap and gown, finally
received his master's degree in May, at a ceremony in the Hyatt
Regency Hotel in Cambridge, not far from where he founded Lotus.

UK Scientists Plan to Construct Synthetic Human Genetic Material From
Scratch (theguardian.com) 17

Posted by EditorDavid on Sunday June 29, 2025 @10:34PM from the
XX-marks-the-spot dept.
"Researchers are embarking on an ambitious project to construct human
genetic material from scratch," reports the Guardian, "to learn more
about how DNA works and pave the way for the next generation of
medical therapies." Scientists on the Synthetic Human Genome (SynHG)
project will spend the next five years developing the tools and
knowhow to build long sections of human genetic code in the lab.
These will be inserted into living cells to understand how the code
operates.

Armed with the insights, scientists hope to devise radical new
therapies for the treatment of diseases. Among the possibilities are
living cells that are resistant to immune attack or particular
viruses, which could be transplanted into patients with autoimmune
diseases or with liver damage from chronic viral infections. "The
information gained from synthesising human genomes may be directly
useful in generating treatments for almost any disease," said Prof
Jason Chin, who is leading the project at the MRC's Laboratory of
Molecular Biology (LMB) in Cambridge...

For the SynHG project, researchers will start by making sections of a
human chromosome and testing them in human skin cells. The project
involves teams from the universities of Cambridge, Kent, Manchester,
Oxford and Imperial College London... Embedded in the project is a
parallel research effort into the social and ethical issues that
arise from making genomes in the laboratory, led by Prof Joy Zhang at
the University of Kent. "We're a little way off having anything
tangible that can be used as a therapy, but this is the time to start
the discussion on what we want to see and what we don't want to see,"
said Dr Julian Sale, a group leader at the LMB.

Beware of Promoting AI in Products, Researchers Warn Marketers
(msn.com) 25

Posted by EditorDavid on Sunday June 29, 2025 @08:34PM from the
AI-advertising dept.
The Wall Street Journal reports that "consumers have less trust in
offerings labeled as being powered by artificial intelligence, which
can reduce their interest in buying them, researchers say." The
effect is especially pronounced for offerings perceived to be riskier
buys, such as a car or a medical-diagnostic service, say the
researchers, who were from Washington State University and Temple
University. "When we were thinking about this project, we thought
that AI will improve [consumers' willingness to buy] because everyone
is promoting AI in their products," says Dogan Gursoy, a regents
professor of hospitality business management at Washington State and
one of the study's authors. "But apparently it has a negative effect,
not a positive one."

In multiple experiments, involving different people, the researchers
split participants into two groups of around 100 each. One group read
ads for fictional products and services that featured the terms
"artificial intelligence" or "AI-powered," while the other group read
ads that used the terms "new technology" or "equipped with
cutting-edge technologies." In each test, members of the group that
saw the AI-related wording were less likely to say they would want to
try, buy or actively seek out any of the products or services being
advertised compared with people in the other group. The difference
was smaller for items researchers called low risk — such as a
television and a generic customer-service offering...

Meanwhile, a separate, forthcoming study from market-research firm
Parks Associates that used different methods and included a much
larger sample size came to similar conclusions about consumers'
reaction to AI in products. "We straight up asked consumers, 'If you
saw a product that you liked that was advertised as including AI,
would that make you more or less likely to buy it?' " says Jennifer
Kent, the firm's vice president of research. Of the roughly 4,000
Americans in the survey, 18% said AI would make them more likely to
buy, 24% said less likely and to 58% it made no difference, according
to the study. "Before this wave of generative AI attention over the
past couple of years, AI-enabled features actually have tested very,
very well," Kent says.

Earth is Trapping Much More Heat Than Climate Models Forecast
(theconversation.com) 120

Posted by EditorDavid on Sunday June 29, 2025 @06:36PM from the
hot-news dept.
What happens if you track how much heat enters Earth's atmosphere and
how much heat leaves?

You discover that Earth's energy budget "is now well and truly out of
balance," three climate researchers write at The Conversation: Our
recent research found this imbalance has more than doubled over the
last 20 years. Other researchers have come to the same conclusions.
This imbalance is now substantially more than climate models have
suggested... These findings suggest climate change might well
accelerate in the coming years...

[T]he burning of coal, oil and gas has now added more than two
trillion tonnes of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases to the
atmosphere. These trap more and more heat, preventing it from
leaving. Some of this extra heat is warming the land or melting sea
ice, glaciers and ice sheets. But this is a tiny fraction. Fully 90%
has gone into the oceans due to their huge heat capacity...

The doubling of the energy imbalance has come as a shock, because the
sophisticated climate models we use largely didn't predict such a
large and rapid change. Typically, the models forecast less than half
of the change we're seeing in the real world. We don't yet have a
full explanation. But new research suggests changes in clouds is a
big factor. Clouds have a cooling effect overall. But the area
covered by highly reflective white clouds has shrunk, while the area
of jumbled, less reflective clouds has grown.
While we don't know why the cloud are changing, it "might be part of
a trend caused by global warming itself, that is, a positive feedback
on climate change. These findings suggest recent extremely hot years
are not one-offs but may reflect a strengthening of warming over the
coming decade or longer...."

"We've known the solution for a long time: stop the routine burning
of fossil fuels and phase out human activities causing emissions such
as deforestation."

For the Free Software Foundation's Summer Fundraiser, the 'GNU Press
Shop' is Open (fsf.org) 5

Posted by EditorDavid on Sunday June 29, 2025 @05:34PM from the
join-us-now dept.
The Free Software Foundation is a non-profit — and they're having
some fun with it.

They've just announced a summer fundraiser, "and that means the GNU
Press Shop is open!" From now until July 28, you can buy your FSF
gear at the GNU Press shop. First and foremost, there's the launch of
the FSF's fortieth anniversary shirt in a summery yellow. We're
taking orders for a limited time for these (until July 28), and then
printing them — you should have yours on your shoulders a few weeks
after the shop closes.

We've also restocked some favorites in the shop:

- A fresh batch of the popular Ada & Zangemann: A Tale of Software,
Skateboards, and Raspberry Ice Cream book by Matthias Kirschner from
the Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE). This tale of software,
skateboards, and raspberry ice cream teaches kids how neat and
exciting it is having control over your software, a perfect fun
summer read!

- Reading is hard in the glaring sun, so shade your eyes with a
freshly restocked GNU baseball cap in pitch black with brilliant gold
embroidery. These are great for wearing anywhere, especially to free
software events.

- For privacy, protect yourself from surveillance with ease and
panache with this slick webcam guard.

We also hope you'll consider becoming an FSF associate member,
putting yourself at the heart of our commitment to ensuring a world
where all software respects our freedom and dignity. Plus, you'll
help us reach our summer fundraising goal of 200 new associate
members before July 11, and of course you'll also receive a 20%
discount at the GNU Press Shop. A note about shipping: the GNU Press
shop opens periodically, and we collect all orders during this time
and schedule orders to be sent out on specific shipping dates with
the help of volunteers. We will be doing the shipping at the end of
the FSF's fundraiser, which means there will be a delay between
placing your order and receiving it...

If you happen to be in the Boston area in July, and would like to
support the FSF's work, we are looking for volunteers to help pack
and ship our orders.
Also on sale are the book "Free as in Freedom 2.0" (Richard
Stallman's 2010 revision of the 2002 biography by Sam Williams with
extensive additional commentary) and "Free Software Free Society:
Selected Essays of Richard M. Stallman" (the 3rd edition published in
2015).

And there's also several other books, t-shirts, other FSF-branded
gear, and even a sticker that warns people "There is no cloud... just
other people's computers."

New NSA/CISA Report Again Urges the Use of Memory-Safe Programming
Language (theregister.com) 45

Posted by EditorDavid on Sunday June 29, 2025 @03:59PM from the
C-you-later dept.
An anonymous reader shared this report from the tech news site The
Register: The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency
(CISA) and the National Security Agency (NSA) this week published
guidance urging software developers to adopt memory-safe programming
languages. "The importance of memory safety cannot be overstated,"
the inter-agency report says...

The CISA/NSA report revisits the rationale for greater memory safety
and the government's calls to adopt memory-safe languages (MSLs)
while also acknowledging the reality that not every agency can change
horses mid-stream. "A balanced approach acknowledges that MSLs are
not a panacea and that transitioning involves significant challenges,
particularly for organizations with large existing codebases or
mission-critical systems," the report says. "However, several
benefits, such as increased reliability, reduced attack surface, and
decreased long-term costs, make a strong case for MSL adoption."

The report cites how Google by 2024 managed to reduce memory safety
vulnerabilities in Android to 24 percent of the total. It goes on to
provide an overview of the various benefits of adopting MSLs and
discusses adoption challenges. And it urges the tech industry to
promote memory safety by, for example, advertising jobs that require
MSL expertise.

It also cites various government projects to accelerate the
transition to MSLs, such as the Defense Advanced Research Projects
Agency (DARPA) Translating All C to Rust (TRACTOR) program, which
aspires to develop an automated method to translate C code to Rust. A
recent effort along these lines, dubbed Omniglot, has been proposed
by researchers at Princeton, UC Berkeley, and UC San Diego. It
provides a safe way for unsafe libraries to communicate with Rust
code through a Foreign Function Interface....

"Memory vulnerabilities pose serious risks to national security and
critical infrastructure," the report concludes. "MSLs offer the most
comprehensive mitigation against this pervasive and dangerous class
of vulnerability."
"Adopting memory-safe languages can accelerate modern software
development and enhance security by eliminating these vulnerabilities
at their root," the report concludes, calling the idea "an investment
in a secure software future."

"By defining memory safety roadmaps and leading the adoption of best
practices, organizations can significantly improve software
resilience and help ensure a safer digital landscape."

Blue Origin Just Launched Six More Passengers to the Edge of Space
(cbsnews.com) 27

Posted by EditorDavid on Sunday June 29, 2025 @02:49PM from the
up-in-the-air dept.
Just four weeks after an early June flight to the edge of space, Blue
Origin has again carried six more passengers there and back again,
reports CBS News, noting that the 10-minute ride was Blue Origin's
13th flight "out of the discernible atmosphere." The New Shepard
capsule's stubby single-stage booster roared to life just after 9:38
a.m. EDT, throttled up to full thrust and smoothly climbed away from
Blue Origin's launch site near Van Horn, Texas. The hydrogen-fueled
BE-3 engine powering the New Shepard fired for about two-and-a-half
minutes, accelerating the spacecraft to just under three times the
speed of sound.

The capsule then separated from the booster and continued coasting
upward along its up-and-down trajectory. At that point, the
passengers — Allie and Carl Kuehner, Leland Larson, Freddie Rescigno
Jr., Jim Sitkin and Owolabi Salis, the first Nigerian to fly in space
— began enjoying about three minutes of weightlessness. Free to
unstrap and float about the cabin, the passengers were able to take
in the view through the largest windows in any operational spacecraft
as the ship climbed to an altitude of just above 65 miles. That's
about three miles higher than the internationally recognized boundary
between the discernible atmosphere and space.

The capsule then began falling back to Earth and the passengers
returned to their seats for the descent to touchdown. The reusable
booster, meanwhile, made its own return to the launch site, dropping
tail first to a rocket-powered touchdown... The company has now
launched 74 passengers, including Bezos' wife Lauren Sánchez, and
four who have flown twice.
By April nearly 120 civilians had already travelled to the edge of
space, CBS News reported earlier — while Virgin Galactic is expected
to resume flights next year.

You can replay the webcast of the mission on Blue Origin's YouTube
channel.

Has an AI Backlash Begun? (wired.com) 85

Posted by EditorDavid on Sunday June 29, 2025 @01:49PM from the
attack-on-the-clones dept.
"The potential threat of bosses attempting to replace human workers
with AI agents is just one of many compounding reasons people are
critical of generative AI..." writes Wired, arguing that there's an
AI backlash that "keeps growing strong."

"The pushback from the creative community ramped up during the 2023
Hollywood writer's strike, and continued to accelerate through the
current wave of copyright lawsuits brought by publishers, creatives,
and Hollywood studios." And "Right now, the general vibe aligns even
more with the side of impacted workers." "I think there is a new sort
of ambient animosity towards the AI systems," says Brian Merchant,
former WIRED contributor and author of Blood in the Machine, a book
about the Luddites rebelling against worker-replacing technology. "AI
companies have speedrun the Silicon Valley trajectory." Before
ChatGPT's release, around 38 percent of US adults were more concerned
than excited about increased AI usage in daily life, according to the
Pew Research Center. The number shot up to 52 percent by late 2023,
as the public reacted to the speedy spread of generative AI. The
level of concern has hovered around that same threshold ever since...

[F]rustration over AI's steady creep has breached the container of
social media and started manifesting more in the real world. Parents
I talk to are concerned about AI use impacting their child's mental
health. Couples are worried about chatbot addictions driving a wedge
in their relationships. Rural communities are incensed that the newly
built data centers required to power these AI tools are kept humming
by generators that burn fossil fuels, polluting their air, water, and
soil. As a whole, the benefits of AI seem esoteric and underwhelming
while the harms feel transformative and immediate.

Unlike the dawn of the internet where democratized access to
information empowered everyday people in unique, surprising ways, the
generative AI era has been defined by half-baked software releases
and threats of AI replacing human workers, especially for recent
college graduates looking to find entry-level work. "Our innovation
ecosystem in the 20th century was about making opportunities for
human flourishing more accessible," says Shannon Vallor, a technology
philosopher at the Edinburgh Futures Institute and author of The AI
Mirror, a book about reclaiming human agency from algorithms. "Now,
we have an era of innovation where the greatest opportunities the
technology creates are for those already enjoying a disproportionate
share of strengths and resources."

The impacts of generative AI on the workforce are another core issue
that critics are organizing around. "Workers are more intuitive than
a lot of the pundit class gives them credit for," says Merchant.
"They know this has been a naked attempt to get rid of people."
The article suggests "the next major shift in public opinion" is
likely "when broad swaths of workers feel further threatened," and
organize in response...

To Spam AI Chatbots, Companies Spam Reddit with AI-Generated Posts
(9to5mac.com) 24

Posted by EditorDavid on Sunday June 29, 2025 @12:34PM from the
Snoos-you-lose dept.
The problem? "Companies want their products and brands to appear in
chatbot results," reports 9to5Mac. And "Since Reddit forms a key part
of the training material for Google's AI, then one effective way to
make that happen is to spam Reddit." Huffman has confirmed to the
Financial Times that this is happening, with companies using AI bots
to create fake posts in the hope that the content will be
regurgitated by chatbots:

"For 20 years, we've been fighting people who have wanted to be
popular on Reddit," Huffman said... "If you want to show up in the
search engines, you try to do well on Reddit, and now the LLMs, it's
the same thing. If you want to be in the LLMs, you can do it through
Reddit."

Multiple ad agency execs confirmed to the FT that they are indeed
"posting content on Reddit to boost the likelihood of their ads
appearing in the responses of generative AI chatbots." Huffman says
that AI bots are increasingly being used to make spam posts, and
Reddit is trying to block them: For Huffman, success comes down to
making sure that posts are "written by humans and voted on by humans
[...] It's an arms race, it's a never ending battle." The company is
exploring a number of new ways to do this, including the World ID
eyeball-scanning device being touted by OpenAI's Sam Altman.
It's Reddit's 20th anniversary, notes CNBC. And while "MySpace, Digg
and Flickr have faded into oblivion," Reddit "has refused to die,
chugging along and gaining an audience of over 108 million daily
users..."

But now Reddit "faces a gargantuan challenge gaining new users,
particularly if Google's search floodgates dry up." [I]n the age of
AI, many users simply "go the easiest possible way," said Ann Smarty,
a marketing and reputation management consultant who helps brands
monitor consumer perception on Reddit. And there may be no simpler
way of finding answers on the internet than simply asking ChatGPT a
question, Smarty said. "People do not want to click," she said. "They
just want those quick answers."
But in response, CNBC's headline argues that Reddit "is fighting AI
with AI." It launched its own Reddit Answers AI service in December,
using technology from OpenAI and Google. Unlike general-purpose
chatbots that summarize others' web pages, the Reddit Answers chatbot
generates responses based purely on the social media service, and it
redirects people to the source conversations so they can see the
specific user comments. A Reddit spokesperson said that over 1
million people are using Reddit Answers each week.

Just How Much Space Data Will the Rubin Observatory Collect?
(space.com) 4

Posted by EditorDavid on Sunday June 29, 2025 @11:34AM from the
keep-watching-the-skies dept.
In its first 10 hours the Rubin space telescope found 2,104
never-before-seen asteroids in our solar system. And Gizmodo reports
the data went directly to the International Astronomical Union's
Minor Planet Center (MPC), which "plays an essential role in the
early detection and monitoring of asteroids that threaten Earth." The
MPC has spent years preparing for the deluge of data from Rubin,
ramping up its software to process massive amounts of observations.
When the first round officially came flooding in on Monday, it was
"nerve-racking and exciting simultaneously," Matthew Payne, MPC
director, told Gizmodo.
But Space.com explains how extraordinary that is. "There are
approximately a million known asteroids in our cosmic neighborhood;
over the next few years, Rubin could very well hike that figure up to
five million." "This is five times more than all the astronomers in
the world discovered during the last 200 years since the discovery of
the first asteroid," Željko IveziÄ, Deputy Director of Rubin's
Legacy Survey of Space and Time, said during the conference. "We can
outdo two centuries of effort in just a couple of years...." The plan
is for Rubin to capture such massive, high-resolution images of the
southern sky once every three nights for at least the next 10 years.
You can therefore consider it to be a super-fast, super-efficient and
super-thorough cosmic imager. Indeed, those qualities are perfect for
spotting some of the smallest details trailing through the space
around our planet: asteroids. "We make movies of the night sky to see
two things: objects that move and objects that change brightness,"
IveziÄ said. "Objects that move come in two flavors. Stars in our
galaxy move, and they move slowly. Much faster objects are
asteroids...."

[I]t's tremendously difficult to record an asteroid at all.
"Asteroids, they disappear after you get one picture of them," IveziÄ
said, calling Rubin's ability to image small objects orbiting the sun
"unprecedented."
Space.com notes that the ten million galaxies in its first image are
just 0.05% of around 20 billion galaxies that Rubin will have imaged
by the end of its 10-year "Legacy Survey of Space and Time"
investigating dark energy.

In fact, in its first year of regular operations, the Observation
"will collect more data than all previous optical observatories
combined," reports Earth.com. That torrent of information — petabytes
of images and catalogs — will be processed in near-real time. Alerts
will be issued to the worldwide astronomy community within 60 seconds
of any detected change in the sky. By democratizing access to its
enormous dataset, Rubin Observatory will empower both professionals
and citizen scientists. This will foster discoveries that range from
mapping the structure of the Milky Way to refining the rate at which
the universe is expanding.
Reuters explains just how much data is being generated: The number of
alerts the telescope will send every night is equivalent to the
inboxes of 83,000 people. It's impossible for someone to look at that
one by one," said astrophysicist Francisco Foster. "We're going to
have to use artificial intelligence tools."
And New Atlas shares some of the "first look" videos released by the
Observatory, including one titled The Cosmic Treasure Chest and
another on the Trifid and Lagoon Nebulae (which Space.com describe as
clouds of gas and dust condensing to birth new stars).

Carbon Record Reveals Evidence of Extensive Human Fire Use 50,000
Years Ago (phys.org) 25

Posted by EditorDavid on Sunday June 29, 2025 @10:34AM from the
burn-rate dept.
"It has long been unclear when humans started using fire," writes
Phys.org... To address this question, researchers from the Institute
of Oceanology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (IOCAS), alongside
collaborators from China, Germany, and France, analyzed the pyrogenic
carbon record in a 300,000-year-old sediment core from the East China
Sea. "Our findings challenge the widely held belief that humans only
began influencing the environment with fire in the recent past,
during the Holocene," said Dr. Zhao Debo, the study's corresponding
author.

This study, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of
Sciences, highlights the presence of charred plant remains — known as
pyrogenic carbon — formed when vegetation burns but is not completely
consumed by fire. The research reveals a notable increase in fire
activity across East Asia approximately 50,000 years ago. This
finding aligns with earlier reports of heightened fire activities in
Europe, Southeast Asia, and the Papua New Guinea-Australia region
respectively, suggesting a continental-scale intensification of fire
use during this period... The study highlights that this global rise
in fire use coincides with the rapid spread of Homo sapiens,
increasing population densities, and a greater reliance on fire,
particularly amid cold, glacial conditions...

These conclusions have significant implications for understanding
Earth's sensitivity to human impacts. If human fire management
altered atmospheric carbon levels tens of thousands of years ago,
current climate models may underestimate the historical baseline of
human-environment interactions.

Ask Slashdot: Do You Use AI - and Is It Actually Helpful? 222

Posted by EditorDavid on Sunday June 29, 2025 @07:34AM from the
survey-says dept.
"I wonder who actually uses AI and why," writes Slashdot reader
VertosCay: Out of pure curiosity, I have asked various AI models to
create: simple Arduino code, business letters, real estate listing
descriptions, and 3D models/vector art for various methods of
manufacturing (3D printing, laser printing, CNC machining). None of
it has been what I would call "turnkey". Everything required some
form of correction or editing before it was usable.

So what's the point?
Their original submission includes more AI-related questions for
Slashdot readers ("Do you use it? Why?") But their biggest question
seems to be: "Do you have to correct it?"

And if that's the case, then when you add up all that correction
time... "Is it actually helpful?"

Share your own thoughts and experiences in the comments. Do you use
AI — and is it actually helpful?

Mysterious Radio Burst Turns Out to Be From a Dead 1967 NASA
Satellite (smithsonianmag.com) 26

Posted by EditorDavid on Sunday June 29, 2025 @03:34AM from the
greetings-earthlings dept.
An anonymous reader shared this report from Smithsonian magazine:
Last year, Australian scientists picked up a mysterious burst of
radio waves that briefly appeared brighter than all other signals in
the sky. Now, the researchers have discovered the blast didn't come
from a celestial object, but a defunct satellite orbiting Earth...
"We got all excited, thinking maybe we'd discovered a new pulsar or
some other object," says Clancy James, a researcher at Australia's
Curtin University who is on the Australian Square Kilometer Array
Pathfinder (ASKAP) team, to Alex Wilkins at New Scientist. After
taking a closer look, however, the team realized that the only viable
source for the burst was NASA's dead Relay 2, a short-lived satellite
that hasn't been in operation since 1967....

The researchers also discovered that at the time of the event, the
satellite was only around 2,800 miles away from Earth, which explains
why the signal appeared so strong. The reason behind Relay 2's sudden
burst is not clear, but the team has come up with two potential
explanations — and neither involves the satellite coming back to life
like a zombie. One relates to electrostatic discharge — a build-up of
electricity that can result in a sudden blast. Spacecraft get charged
with electricity when they pass through plasma, and once enough
charge accumulates, it can create a spark. "New spacecraft are built
with materials to reduce the build-up of charge, but when Relay 2 was
launched, this wasn't well-understood," explains James to Space.com's
Robert Lea. The other idea is that a micrometeorite hit the
satellite, releasing a small cloud of plasma and radio waves.

Karen Aplin, a space scientist at the University of Bristol in
England who was not involved in the study, tells New Scientist that
it would be tough to differentiate between signals produced by each
of those two scenarios, because they would look very similar. The
researchers say they favor the first idea, however, because
micrometeorites the size of the one that could have caused the signal
are uncommon.
"Their findings were published in a pre-print paper on the arXiv
server that has not yet been peer-reviewed."

New Linux Kernel Drama: Torvalds Drops Bcachefs Support After Clash
(itsfoss.com) 105

Posted by EditorDavid on Saturday June 28, 2025 @11:34PM from the
filesystem-errors dept.
Bcachefs "pitches itself as a filesystem that 'doesn't eat your
data'," writes the open source/Linux blog It's FOSS. Although it was
last October that Bcachefs developer Kent Overstreet was restricted
from participating in the Linux 6.13 kernel development cycle (after
ending a mailing list post with "Get your head examined. And get the
fuck out of here with this shit.")

And now with the upcoming Linux kernel 6.17 release, Linus Torvalds
has decided to drop Bcachefs support, they report, "owing to growing
tensions" with Overstreet: The decision follows a series of
disagreements over how fixes and changes for it were submitted during
the 6.16 release cycle... Kent filed a pull request to add a new
feature called "journal-rewind". It was meant to improve bcachefs
repair functionality, but it landed during the release candidate (RC)
phase, a time usually reserved for bug fixes, not new features, as
Linus pointed out. [Adding "I remain steadfastly convinced that
anybody who uses bcachefs is expecting it to be experimental. They
had better."]

Theodore Ts'o, a long-time kernel developer and maintainer of ext4,
also chimed in, saying that Kent's approach risks introducing
regressions, especially when changes affect sensitive parts of a
filesystem like journaling. He reminded Kent that the rules around
the merge window have been a long-standing consensus in the kernel
community, and it's Linus's job to enforce them. After some more back
and forth, Kent pushed back, arguing that the rules around the merge
window aren't absolute and should allow for flexibility, even more so
when user data is at stake. He then went ahead and resubmitted the
patch, citing instances from XFS and Btrfs where similar fixes made
it into the kernel during RCs. Linus merged it into his tree, but
ultimately decided to drop Bcachefs entirely in the 6.17 merge
window.

To which Kent responded by clarifying that he wasn't trying to shut
Linus out of Bcachefs' decisions, stressing that he values Linus's
input...
This of course follows the great Torvalds-Overstreet "filesystem
people never learn" throwdown back in April.
