They came within 4 minutes of deployment. No announcement. No traffic. Just a fresh GCP instance with a honeypot running — and 240 seconds later, the first connection attempt hit. This is the story of CERBERUS: my AI-powered honeypot system, what I built it with, and the attack patterns I observed from real threat actors in the wild. I'm a cybersecurity student and independent researcher in Nairob
Change the default voice to "Siri Voice 1" in System Settings - then your say MacOS command will sound more appealing (less robotic). Open System Settings Search for "Voice Live Speach": Click the ℹ️ icon near "System Voice": Click the arrow ➡️ near "Voice" in the new window: Search for "Siri": And click the download icon 🌩️ near the Voice 1 (IMHO the best, feel free to choose your prefer
Ride History: Tracking Every Completed Trip On the backend, the API queries Supabase for every ride tied to the user's Google ID, filtered to only completed rides and ordered newest-first: There's no date filter and no row limit -- it returns every completed ride the account has ever taken.

If you are building a FiveM roleplay server, Discord Rich Presence is one of those small details that makes a big difference. It replaces the generic "Playing FiveM" status with your server name, logo, and player count. Every player on your server passively advertises your brand to their entire Discord friends list. The setup is straightforward but the implementation differs depending on your fram
I've seen this happen over and over. A team picks up a feature. Some back and forth, maybe a whiteboard sketch or a Slack thread that gets too long. Someone starts building. Two weeks later a PR goes up. Good naming, tests pass, no obvious issues. Approve, Ship! Three months later, nobody uses it. Or worse, people use it but they're confused, because what shipped doesn't match the problem it was s
The File Search tool in the Gemini API now supports multimodal retrieval by adding support for Gemini Embedding 2. This update allows images, such as charts, product photos, and diagrams, to be natively indexed and searched in the same store as your text-based documents. This post covers how to use the File Search tool end-to-end: creating a store, uploading documents and images, querying with gro
Your README has a Setup section. It has eight steps, two of them are out of date, and step 5 assumes you're on macOS. A new dev joins the team and spends their first afternoon figuring out which version of Node you're actually on. You can do better than that. One .bp file in the repo and one command is all it takes. Blueprint is a declarative rule engine for development environments. You write a p
