From Docker hell to Lite + LLM correction. A retrospective on my own experimentation, plus an introduction to someone else's browser-based NDLOCR-Lite implementation.
Covers Cisco SD-WAN authentication bypass and UAT-8616's three-year campaign, NuGet/npm supply chain attacks, and Claude Code/Desktop Extensions/Mexico government breach.
Standard Intelligence trained a general-purpose computer action foundation model on 11 million hours of screen recordings. Instead of an LLM, FDM-1 operates directly on video and action tokens, achieving 50-100x compression efficiency over existing VLMs with a custom encoder.
Set up the CLI version of NDLOCR-Lite on Apple Silicon Mac, then tested OCR result correction with Qwen 3.5 and Swallow. Includes experiments with direct image reading and the anchoring effect.
Setup notes for running WAI-Illustrious SDXL v16 on ComfyUI with an 8GB RTX 4060 Laptop. 1024x1024 generates in ~15 seconds without --lowvram, and a LoRA still loads. CUDA 12.8 portable build and path gotchas included.
Trend Micro analyzed a new AMOS distribution method that targets AI agent workflows. A malicious SKILL.md on OpenClaw plants fake CLI install instructions and uses AI as the intermediary to manipulate people.
One engineer plus AI reimplemented Next.js on Vite for about $1,100 in token cost. The result, vinext, shipped with 4.4x faster builds and a 57% smaller bundle, and is already running in production during its first week.
Firefox 148 is the first browser to ship the Sanitizer API. With setHTML(), developers finally have a standard browser-level way to replace innerHTML safely and eliminate XSS with minimal code changes.
Tried the lightweight OCR tool NDLOCR-Lite released by the National Diet Library — installed it on Windows 11 and tested both the CLI and GUI versions.
Design and implementation of Kana Chat, a personal AI agent system that wraps official CLIs. Covers the tmux bridge, context isolation, and tool approval gate that make it safe to run in your own environment.
Anthropic accused three Chinese AI companies of distilling Claude, and on the same day OpenAI retired SWE-bench Verified. Training fraud and evaluation flaws exposed simultaneously on February 23, 2026.
