How Github was hacked

To understand that first we need to trace the sequence of events before it’d happened. And, God, there were MANY: Coincidence? Outages stopped only after May 26. Looks like the hackers were trying different approaches since at least February or actively pulling the data from the servers. And while the Github CyberSecs were hunting them…

I’ve applied Neural Style Transfer to Return To Castle Wolfstein

TLDR: It looks great but not playable. It’s aesthetically pleasing but screen is hard to read and you can miss some important details (e.g. bullet shoots or mission objectives) that hard to read due to the style is being applied. I’ve converted some torch models to the CoreML format and also trained mine own with…

Neural Style Transfer: Challenges with Apple’s AI Ecosystem

Diving into Apple’s NPU, it’s a mess! The ANE is underused and can’t handle workloads solo, so it’s always relying on CPU/GPU. OpenCL’s gone, and conversions between models are glitchy. For AI to flourish here, Apple needs to open up, support standards, and get ANE properly utilized. Good luck, Apple!

Some thoughts about the current state on LLM’s assist coding…
It’s good for small projects to kickstart or use it as an intelligent autocomplete tool but doesn’t shine as much for complex projects with vague documentation where tribal knowledge is predominant and no straightforward solution. Because AI, even in an agentic mode, cannot ask your colleague why it’s implemented this way and not another. Some…
