When you build a PowerShell project from multiple files, the natural structure is clear: enums first, then classes, then functions. Each group has its own place, and as long as dependencies only flow in one direction, that structure works perfectly. But sometimes a function depends on a class, and that class calls the function. There is no longer a clean boundary between the two groups — they need
On March 29, 2024, Andres Freund — a Microsoft engineer and PostgreSQL contributor — noticed something odd while investigating unexplained CPU usage in SSH on a Debian testing build. liblzma, the compression library bundled with XZ Utils, was performing extra work it had no business doing. After careful analysis, Freund had found one of the most sophisticated software supply chain attacks ever dis
The Counter Galois Onion (CGO) Migration: Tor's Cryptographic Engine Swap If you've ever dug into Tor's internals, you know the network is a masterpiece of practical anonymity. But like any long-running system, its crypto stack was starting to show its age. Enter the Counter Galois Onion (CGO) Migration - one of the most significant under-the-hood upgrades Tor has seen in years. It's a fundament
The drift problem nobody told you about If you have used Claude Code, Cursor, Aider, or any other AI coding agent across more than two projects, you have felt this: You start project A. You copy the .agents/ folder (or CLAUDE.md, or .cursorrules) from your last project. You tweak two things. Done. You start project B six weeks later. You copy from project A. You tweak three things this time. Now
Cross-posted from the Stigmem blog. Today we're releasing stigmem v1.0: A stable, open-source specification and reference implementation for a federated knowledge fabric for AI agents. Stigmem = Stigmergy + Memory. Stigmergy (Greek stigma — mark; ergon — work) is the coordination mechanism you see in ant colonies and termite mounds: agents don't communicate directly with each other. Instead, they
More rules should mean better output. That's the intuition. I spent weeks building a comprehensive CLAUDE.md — 200 lines covering naming conventions, security rules, error handling, architectural patterns, import ordering, type safety requirements, and more. I was proud of it. I'd thought through every scenario. Then I scored the output. 79.0 / 100. My carefully crafted documentation was actively

By QuantaLabs | April 2026 | quantalabs.cc | quantachain.org Five days ago, an independent researcher named Giancarlo Lelli broke a 15-bit elliptic curve key on a publicly accessible IBM quantum computer and collected a 1 BTC bounty from Project Eleven. The result was debated — some Bitcoin developers showed the winning result could be replicated with random noise, suggesting limited true quantum
