- [$] Dependency-cooldown discussions warm up22 April 2026, 3:21 pm
Efforts to introduce malicious code into the open-source supply
chain have been on the rise in recent years, and there is no indication that they
will abate anytime soon. These attacks are often found quickly, but not quickly
enough to prevent the compromised code from being automatically injected into other
projects or code deployed by users where it can wreak havoc. One method of avoiding
supply-chain attacks is to add a delay of a few days before pulling upates in what
is known as a "dependen...
- [$] One Sized trait does not fit all22 April 2026, 1:58 pm
In Rust, types either possess a constant size known at compile time, or a
dynamically calculated size known at
run time. That is fine for most purposes, but recent proposals for the language
have shown the need for a more fine-grained hierarchy.
RFC 3729 from David Wood and Rémy Rakic would add a hierarchy of
traits to describe types with sizes known under different circumstances. While
the idea has been subject to discussion for many years, a growing number of
use cases for the feature have ...

- Ubuntu confirms the 26.10 codename, and it sounds strange21 April 2026, 4:28 pm
Ubuntu has announced the codename for Ubuntu 26.10 is… “Stonking Stingray”. As codenames go it’s certainly unique. The distro gives each release a codename: an alliterative pairing of adjective and animal, the latter of which becomes the release mascot. The tradition dates back to the first Ubuntu release in 2004 (dubbed ‘Warty Warthog’). Ubuntu 26.04 LTS was ‘Resolute Raccoon’, making ‘s’ the next letter alphabetically, and ‘Stonking Stingray’ was the distro’s standout...

If you plan to upgrade to Ubuntu 26.04 LTS ‘Resolute Raccoon’ from Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, you’re going to inherit two years worth of improvements. As an LTS-to-LTS jump, you don’t simply benefit from what’s new in Ubuntu 26.04, but everything else added in the 3 interim releases prior, namely Ubuntu 24.10, 25.04 and 25.10. Ubuntu 26.04 LTS does plenty of things that 24.04 didn’t, but drops several features too It adds up to a mammoth set of changes across the full stack, running right fro...

Similarly, the team says they “caught more cases where tools would accidentally rasterize link, text, and vector layers”. A layer nami...
- Type with your voice on Linux using this Whisper-based app19 April 2026, 2:48 am
Your mouth can (probably) say things quicker than your hands can type them, yet voice typing is rarely used as a primary input method on desktop, despite most of us thinking nothing of using it on mobile. That’s despite speech-to-text being available on desktop OSes for decades, natively and through dedicated apps. It never caught on because it was inaccurate and slow and typically hidden away as an assistive feature. (And because a lot of what you do at a keyboard is navigation and that is le...

- SELinux Volume Label Changes goes GA (and likely implications in v1.37)22 April 2026, 6:35 pm
If you run Kubernetes on Linux with SELinux in enforcing mode, plan ahead: a future release (anticipated to be v1.37) is
expected to turn the SELinuxMount feature gate on by default. This makes volume setup faster
for most workloads, but it can break applications that still depend on the older recursive relabeling
model in subtle ways (for example, sharing one volume between privileged and unprivileged Pods on the same node).

- Running Agents on Kubernetes with Agent Sandbox20 March 2026, 6:00 pm
The landscape of artificial intelligence is undergoing a massive architectural shift. In the early days of generative AI, interacting with a model was often treated as a transient, stateless function call: a request that spun up, executed for perhaps 50 milliseconds, and terminated.
Today, the world is witnessing AI v2 eating AI v1. The ecosystem is moving from short-lived, isolated tasks to deploying multiple, coordinated AI agents that run constantly. These autonomous agents need to maintain c...

During production debugging, the fastest route is often broad access such as cluster-admin (a ClusterRole that grants administrator-level access), shared bastions/jump boxes, or long-lived SSH keys. It works in the moment, but it comes with two common problems: auditing becomes difficult, and temporary exceptions have a way of becoming routine.

A query was taking 12 seconds pulling from a staging table that the morning SSIS package loads. Someone opened the execution plan, spotted a clustered index scan, and added a non-clustered index. The query dropped to 400ms. Ticket closed.
Three weeks later, the SSIS package started timing out. The ETL window that used to finish in 40 minutes was now running 90. Nobody connected the two events as they happened weeks apart and the symptoms looked completely unrelated. Di...
- Clean Code: Structs, Methods, and Composition Over Inheritance, Part 222 April 2026, 5:00 pm
Introduction: Why OOP in Go Isn't What You Think
I've seen hundreds of developers try to write Go like Java, creating inheritance hierarchies that don't exist and fighting the language every step of the way. "Go has no classes!" — the first shock for developers with Java/C# background. The second — "How to live without inheritance?!" Relax, Go offers something better: composition through embedding, interfaces without explicit implementation, and clear rules for methods.
Common struct/method ...
- The Rollback Problem: Implementing Transactional Boundaries in Agentic Loops22 April 2026, 4:00 pm
We spent decades learning how to protect our data. From simple atomic commits to complex distributed systems, software engineering is fundamentally about managing state safely. Yet, when we build autonomous AI agents today, we don’t seem to learn from our findings.
A self-correcting algorithm that fails mid-task often attempts a blind restart. Without a rollback mechanism, the agent operates in a corrupted state. This triggers a recursive loop. The software then fights phantom errors — logic...
- What AI Systems Taught Us About the Limits of Chaos Engineering22 April 2026, 3:00 pm
In the early days of Chaos Monkey, breaking things at random was almost a badge of honor. Kill a service. Drop a node. Add latency. Watch what happens.
That model made sense when most systems were relatively deterministic, and the primary question was simple: Will the application survive if a component disappears?...
- The Invisible OOMKill: Why Your Java Pod Keeps Restarting in Kubernetes22 April 2026, 2:00 pm
Imagine deploying a robust Spring Boot microservice that passes every integration test in your local Docker environment, only to watch it crash loop endlessly shortly after launching to your Kubernetes production cluster. Everything ran fine on your laptop, but in the live environment, your pods start terminating en masse. Requests to your critical endpoints begin failing with 503 errors. Panic sets in as your service, the backbone of your transaction pipeline, is effectively brought down by an ...
- Designing a “People You May Know” System With Graph Neural Networks22 April 2026, 1:00 pm
Why This Puzzle Might Be Harder Than It Appears
Most people will feel that this aspect is very simple: The "People You May Know" feature is so easy to use! You log into an app, browse a few suggested friends, and either dismiss them or ask to add them. But once I started thinking through how such a feature would operate at scale, it became clear that it's really a far deeper, more involved architectural problem than meets the eye.
At a small scale, a platform can get away with naive heuristics l...
- 53 Nations Gather To Plan a Fossil Fuel Phaseout23 April 2026, 11:00 am
Ancient Slashdot reader hwstar shares a report from The Conversation: For the first time ever, more than 50 nations will gather next week in Colombia to hash out how to wind down and end their dependence on coal, oil and gas. The history-making conference was planned before the Iran war. But this year's energy crisis has greatly raised the stakes. [...] Around 80% of the trapped oil was destined for the Asia-Pacific. Faced with dwindling supply, the region's governments are implementing emergenc...
- Your Phone's Next Speed Boost May Come From Magnetic Chips23 April 2026, 7:00 am
alternative_right writes: A new technology has been proposed that could fundamentally solve the issue of smartphones overheating during high-spec gaming or extended video streaming. Researchers at KAIST have discovered the principle of processing signals using the minute vibrations of magnets (spin waves) instead of electrons. This method significantly reduces heat generation and power consumption while enabling instantaneous frequency switching within the several GHz range. This breakthrough is...

Ancient Slashdot reader Alain Williams shares a report from the BBC: The Trump family's World Liberty crypto venture is being sued by one of its billionaire backers over allegations of extortion. Justin Sun has accused World Liberty of an "illegal scheme" to seize his WLFI tokens, a cryptocurrency issued by the company.

Longtime Slashdot reader mmarlett writes: The Atlantic has a long article on the story of missing scientists recently featured here on Slashdot. In short, it is an incoherent conspiracy theory that spreads wide and far, not paying any attention to boundaries of time, space, or area of expertise. "Which is all to say that another piece of flagrant nonsense has ascended to the highest levels of U.S. politics and media," writes the Atlantic's Daniel Engber. "To call it a conspiracy theory would be ...

- Voyager 1 is Running Out of Power. NASA Just Switched Part of It Off19 April 2026, 11:49 pm
After 49 years of space travel, Voyager 1 "is running out of power," reports NPR:
The spacecraft runs on a radioisotope thermoelectric generator — a device that converts heat from decaying plutonium into electricity. It carries no solar panels, no rechargeable batteries. Just the slow, steady release of nuclear warmth, which diminishes by about 4 watts each year. After nearly five decades, that decline has become critical.
During a routine maneuver in late February, Voyager 1's power levels...
- Pancreatic Cancer mRNA Vaccine Shows Lasting Results In Early Trial19 April 2026, 6:34 pm
NBC News reports on a 16-person clinical trial of "personalized messenger RNA vaccines" which use the immune system to fight cancer cells.

- Fructose Isn't Just Sugar. It Acts More Like a Hormone18 April 2026, 5:34 pm
Slashdot reader smazsyr writes: A new review says we've had fructose wrong for decades. The nine authors, led by Richard Johnson at the University of Colorado Anschutz, argue that fructose "is not just another calorie." It is a signal. It tells the liver to make fat and brace for a famine that never comes. That made sense for a bear fattening up on autumn berries. It makes less sense for a person drinking soda in March.
The review reframes the WHO's sugar guideline, argues ScienceBlog.com, as ...

- Akashdeep Dhar: Day One - FOSSAsia 202621 April 2026, 6:30 pm
After kicking off the FOSSAsia 2026 proceedings with the "choose-your-adventure-flavoured" Community Day, the first day on 09th March 2026 began for me at around 0730am Indochina Time. It took me quite a lot of strength to get myself moving out of bed, but I knew that I had to make it to the conference venue by 1000am Indochina Time to appear in the group photo. I rang up Samyak Jain and we planned to rendezvous downstairs at the hotel reception in about ninety ...

we can land it in a way that doesn't break as many things as this last time.

The packing had already been taken care of previously, so all I had to take care of was ensuring that I got myself an Uber ride to the Pune International Airport in time.

The kea package has moved all services to run as a dedicated kea user (instead of root) for improved security. This change requires permission updates to the runtime files created by the kea services.
Users upgrading from an existing kea installation should therefore run the following commands after the upgrade:
chown kea: /var/lib/kea/* /var/log/kea/* /run/lock/kea/logger_lockfile

check for .pacsave files in /etc/iptables/ and restore your rules if needed:
/etc/iptables/iptables.rules.pacsave
/etc/iptables/ip6tables.rules.pacsave
Most setups should work unchanged, but users relying on uncommon xtables
extensions or legacy-only behavior should test carefully and use
iptables-legacy if r...
- NVIDIA 590 driver drops Pascal and lower support; main packages switch to Open Kernel Modules20 December 2025, 6:53 pm
With the update to driver version 590, the NVIDIA driver no longer supports Pascal (GTX 10xx) GPUs or older. We will replace the nvidia package with nvidia-open, nvidia-dkms with nvidia-open-dkms, and nvidia-lts with nvidia-lts-open.
Impact: Updating the NVIDIA packages on systems with Pascal, Maxwell, or older cards will fail to load the driver, which may result in a broken graphical environment.
Intervention required for Pascal/older users: Users with GTX 10xx series and older cards must switc...

- waydroid >= 1.5.4-3 update may require manual intervention6 November 2025, 12:35 am
The waydroid package prior to version 1.5.4-2 (including aur/waydroid) creates Python byte-code files (.pyc) at runtime which were untracked by pacman. This issue has been fixed in 1.5.4-3, where byte-compiling these files is now done during the packaging process.
As a result, the upgrade may conflict with the unowned files created in previous versions. If you encounter errors like the following during the update:

- dovecot >= 2.4 requires manual intervention31 October 2025, 9:20 pm
The dovecot 2.4 release branch has made breaking changes which result

configuration file was migrated, requiring manual intervention.

zabbix-server

This shared zabbix user account is provided by the newly introduced zabbix-common split package, which is now a dep...
- linux-firmware >= 20250613.12fe085f-5 upgrade requires manual intervention21 June 2025, 11:09 pm
With 20250613.12fe085f-5, we split our firmware into several vendor-focused packages. linux-firmware is now an empty package depending on our default set of firmware.
Unfortunately, this coincided with upstream reorganizing the symlink layout of the NVIDIA firmware, resulting in a situation that Pacman cannot handle. When attempting to upgrade from 20250508.788aadc8-2 or earlier, you will see the following errors:
linux-firmware-nvidia: /usr/lib/firmware/nvidia/ad103 exists in filesystem

- Plasma 6.4.0 will need manual intervention if you are on X1120 June 2025, 7:08 am
On Plasma 6.4 the wayland session will be the only one installed when the users does not manually specify kwin-x11.
With the recent split of kwin into kwin-wayland and kwin-x11, users running the old X11 session needs to manually install plasma-x11-session, or they will not be able to login. Currently pacman is not able to figure out your personal setup, and it wouldn't be ok to install plasma-x11-session and kwin-x11 for every
one using Plasma.

- Linux Won, and Nobody Noticed25 March 2026, 1:38 am
The tech industry has failed to properly acknowledge this for years: Linux won. Not "Linux is doing fine." Not "Linux is making progress." Not "maybe next year will be the year of the Linux desktop." No. Linux won. Decisively. Overwhelmingly. In nearly every category of computing that actually matters, Linux is the dominant operating system on the planet — and it happened quietly that most people, including many who use it every single day, have absolutely no idea.I've been writing about Lin...

A few years ago, a friend of mine bought a Rolex Submariner. It cost him roughly the same as a decent used car. He showed it to me with the kind of pride usually reserved for newborn babies and championship trophies. It was beautiful, I’ll admit. The weight of it, the way it caught the light, the satisfying click of the rotating bezel — there’s a reason people have been obsessed with luxury watches for centuries.He then asked me what I was wearing on my wrist. I looked down at my Garmin Fe...
