After being criticized for saying in an October speech to the Chicago Economic Club that "‘tariff’ is the most beautiful word in the dictionary," Donald Trump puckishly acknowledged his critics had a point about his priorities. "Let’s put God number one. Let’s put religion number two. Love, I don’t know, we gotta put that number three, I guess, right? And then it’s tariff, because tariffs will make us rich as hell!"

A key advancement in AI capabilities is the development and use of chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning, where models explain their steps before reaching an answer. This structured intermediate reasoning is not just a performance tool; it’s also expected to enhance interpretability. If models explain their reasoning in natural language, developers can trace the logic and detect faulty assumptions or unintended behaviors. While the transparency potential of CoT reasoning has been well-recognized, the actual faithfulness of these explanations to the model’s internal logic remains underexplored. As reasoning models become more influential in decision-making processes, it becomes critical to ensure the coherence between…

It’s “a defensive gap in many networks,” the report says. The agencies recommend that all stakeholders, both government and providers, collaborate on developing and implementing scalable solutions to close this gap. However, the report admits, differentiating fast flux from legitimate activity “remains an ongoing challenge.” For example, some common content delivery network (CDN) behaviors may look like malicious fast flux activity. To avoid blocking or impeding legitimate content, Protective DNS services (PDNS), service providers, and network defenders should make “reasonable efforts,” such as allowlisting expected CDN services, the report says.

NBCUniversal Television Distribution There are quite a few memorable things about the classic television detective Columbo that set him apart from the average TV cop. From his disheveled appearance and trademark tan overcoat to his perpetually lit cigar, Peter Falk’s Lieutenant Columbo is clearly cut from a different, less rigid cloth. He regularly takes the rich and powerful down a few notches and always catches the murderer through a combination of attention to detail and a willingness to be a bit annoying, and it’s through the latter that he uses…

For over 30 years, Eric A. Janolino has dedicated his life to farming palay, corn, and various vegetables in the remote sitio of Tingkulan in Barangay Bagocboc. As someone without formal education, farming was the only way Eric knew to support his growing family. Yet, despite decades of hard work, life was a constant uphill battle.  To fund each planting season, Eric used to rely on informal lenders who charged exorbitant and crippling interest rates, often leaving him with little to no profit after the harvest. This made it nearly impossible to improve his farming methods or invest in…

Summary Versions of geth built with Go <1.15.5 or <1.14.12 are most likely affected by a critical DoS-related security vulnerability. The golang team has registered this flaw as ‘CVE-2020-28362’. We recommend all users to rebuild (ideally v1.9.24) with Go 1.15.5 or 1.14.12, to avoid node crashes. Alternatively, if you are running binaries distributed via one of our official channels, we’re going to release v1.9.24 ourselves built with Go 1.15.5. Docker images will most probably be out of date due to a missing base image, but you can check the release notes on how to temporarily build one with Go 1.15.5.…
