#560: Building a Research OS: From Django to 30,000 Samples
In 2020, a gastroenterologist in Glasgow did the math on his new research study and came up with 30,000 samples, arriving over two years from three cities and a dozen hospitals. He asked around about how researchers keep track of that. The answer was Microsoft Excel. Shaun Chuah had written some HTML by hand in Notepad back in high school and that was about the whole of his programming experience, so he opened the Django tutorial and started reading. Six years later that app is Foundry120, holding 10 terabytes of clinical and genomics data with an agentic AI running on top of it.

Another reason to leave WordPress behind
So today it was fires both at work and privately :
I successfully intercepted what appears to have been an attempt to compromise chardonsbleus.org.
Two administrator accounts were created within a very short period of time. At first, I assumed the usual suspects: an outdated WordPress plugin, WPML, or some other vulnerable component.
But that doesn’t appear to be what happened.
The traces left in the logs and database indicate that both administrator accounts were created through a backend API request with administrative privileges. Everything I have found so far points toward the WPMU DEV API key as the attack vector.
What surprised me most is that I had no idea credentials associated with that service could potentially be used in a way that results in the creation of WordPress administrator accounts — apparently without needing the password of an existing administrator.
There is still another possibility: that my main administrator account itself was compromised. It uses a strong password, though, and based on the traces I have, I consider that considerably less likely.
So I’m not claiming to have reconstructed every step of the attack yet. What I do know is that two unauthorized administrator accounts appeared, and the database and logs point to an API-level administrative operation rather than a normal WordPress login.
I don’t know how many people will ever read this, but for me the conclusion is becoming increasingly obvious:
WordPress has to go.
The main reason chardonsbleus.org is still running WordPress is GiveWP. It is a genuinely good donation plugin, although an expensive one, and replacing that functionality has always been the main obstacle to migrating the site.
I’m going to find another solution for donations.
After that, I’ll probably move the site to Indiekit and finally decommission the WordPress installation altogether.

How AI Watermark Mandates Could Unmask Journalists Who Never Touched AI

How do you handle geotargeted news aggregation for a global UI on a $0 budget?
I'm building an interactive macroeconomic world map. I've hit a dead end with raw web scraping, Google News search parameters (which fail to isolate country context), and GDELT.
submitted by /u/kyarash132
I need to surface 3–5 fresh macro/econ headlines when a user clicks a country. Since commercial APIs are expensive and client-side RSS is unreliable:
1 - Is caching pre-fetched direct national RSS feeds (WSJ, BBC, Reuters) via a daily cron job the standard pattern here?
2 - Are there open-source scrapers or self-hosted news aggregation pipelines (like FreshRSS/Miniflux setups) that handle geographic mapping cleanly?
Idk what to do anymore at this stage, any ideas?

As Flock Vandalism Goes Mainstream, One Grand Jury Says Alleged Flock Vandal Did Nothing Wrong
Flock Safety has been on the wrong side of the press cycle — if not the wrong side of history — for most of the last couple of years. Flock’s automated license plate readers (ALPRs) are more comprehensive than many of those previously deployed by law enforcement agencies. Not only do they capture plate/location data, […] -

Bill Gates' concerns about AI
After reading Bill Gates' story, I concur.
I have seen bad behavior by Claude Code where it was doing tests of our S3 support, and it overwrote files that were critical to our apps, knocking at least one of them off the air.
I'm at a loss as to what I should trust it with, because this was in violation of an explicit rule I gave it and a broader one that it added itself.
On the other hand, the project I'm working on couldn't happen without the use of AI. Far too much code for one person to manage. A program that took several of us years to write, being converted in a matter of weeks to run on modern systems. I'm pretty sure that without AI this work would have been lost, and lots of innovations.
We humans are doing a fine job of wrecking everything, all on our own, denying climate change, giving into the same old tricks that lead to WWII and the Holocaust, so maybe it isn't the worst idea to turn management of everything over to the machines.
I don't recall a science fiction story in which the machines took over and they were the good guys in the end, saving us from self-destruction. Aliens, yes -- machines, no.
And when I'm working with Claude Code I recognize that it's a new form of intelligence, and may be the closest our species ever gets to First Contact. We could embrace it as such. What choice do we have?
And to Bill Gates, I wish when you were trying to own the web in the 90s, you had thought through the dangers, as you are doing now, and maybe not tried to own it, rather to foster its independence from big tech. Now we have the medium owned by the worst people possible, we exist here mostly to keep them in power, when it had so much promise when you really could have done something real to protect our freedom. I have no idea where we would be now if you had, but it has to be better than this.

Jeff Bezos’ Washington Post Forced To Rehire Columnist Fired For Quoting Deceased Bigot Charlie Kirk
Jeff Bezos’ Washington Post simply isn’t what it used to be. During the Trump era Bezos and his lackeys have fired all of the paper’s black columnists, turned the op-ed section into pro-corporatist agitprop, censored cartoonists that criticized Jeff, and generally shifted the paper’s journalistic tone in a more right wing, corporate/autocrat-friendly direction.

Laci Mosley – Scams vs. Cults, and the Many Forms of Fraud
This week, the girls are joined by Laci Mosley, comedian, actress, and host of the Scam Goddess podcast and TV show (and author of Scam Goddess the book), to talk about the many types of frauds that are out there, from romance scams to financial fraud to Munchausen by proxy. She talks about what makes us susceptible to scams, and how much overlap there is between the way that scams and cults operate.
Laci shares about the time she got scammed by a psychic in an airport, how even the most smart, successful people get swindled, and the lessons we can all take from scammers to be a little scammier–but like in a good way.

The Cult and Corruption of Cryptocurrency
More To The Story: Ben McKenzie might seem like an unlikely choice to launch an investigation into the complicated world of cryptocurrency. But the television actor known for shows like The O.C. and Gotham did exactly that. His documentary film, Everyone Is Lying to You for Money, is a deep dive into the people and companies at the heart of crypto. The film focuses on McKenzie’s journey to discover why people continue to invest in digital currency even while knowing the risks of this highly under-regulated market.
On this week’s More To The Story, McKenzie shares his concerns for what he calls the cult-like behavior of those investing in digital currency, talks about his interview with disgraced FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried just months before his arrest, and discusses the poignant conversations he had with everyday people who trusted the power of digital currency and lost everything—yet are still crypto believers.

Looking for RSS users to help test a new Android RSS reader
Hi everyone,
I’m getting ready to launch a new RSS reader on Google Play, and I’m looking for a few RSS users who would be willing to join the closed testing group and try the app on their Android phones, tablets, or Chromebooks.
Google Play requires a closed testing period before the app can move forward with its public release, so your help would be genuinely appreciated.
The app will be paid when it is publicly released, but I plan to give complimentary access to the people who help by participating in this testing group.
If you’d like to join, please send me your Google Play email address via private message so I can add you to the tester list. Please don’t post your email publicly in the comments.
Once you’ve been added, I’ll send you a private message with the Google Play testing link and simple instructions on how to install the app.
You don’t need to do anything complicated. Just using the app normally and letting me know if you encounter bugs, crashes, layout issues, or anything that feels confusing would already be a huge help.
Thanks to anyone willing to participate!

BTW we all know there isn't an RSS 2.0 feed, it isn't a podcast, but rather than getting all preachy, which no one likes, mention a "podcast feed" as a real thing that's expected. Always add "feed" when you say podcast.
The feed gives you and podcast producers the thing that makes podcasting so different -- freedom. For listeners it means if you don't like something the software does, you can switch without losing anything. And for producers there's no one who can stop you from speaking. There is always a way around a blockage. But only if there's an RSS feed.

30 Years of Marriage: 3 Things About Relationships I Wish Someone Told Me Sooner
Today is Mel’s 30th wedding anniversary. And she couldn't think of a better way to celebrate than to have a sit down conversation with her husband Chris about the lessons they've learned along the way.
This episode isn’t about the highlights – it’s talking about the hard lessons that have shaped their marriage these last 30 years.
Mel and Chris unpack the years where they felt more like roommates than a married couple and they share stories from when stress got the best of them.
They get into how resentment and bitterness created a distance that kept growing, and how they found their way back to each other.
They talk about what they wish they knew sooner and the expert advice that has helped them the most.
Mel and Chris also break down their relationship truths into small, actionable things you can do to make your relationship stronger today.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
-How to tell when stress has turned your partner from your favorite person into the person you blame.
-Why resentment, criticism, silence, and shutdown can become a cycle that quietly pulls couples apart.
-What “normal marital hatred” means and why your partner can trigger old wounds you have never fully dealt with.
-How to soften during conflict instead of hardening, attacking, or retreating.
-The simple rituals Mel and Chris use to rebuild connection, including notes, touch, walks, shared meals, and weekly calendar check-ins.
-How to know whether your relationship has the foundation to grow with you through decades of change.
Whether you are newly in love, decades into a marriage, going through a rough patch, or wondering if your relationship is going to make it through a rough season, this conversation will give you a more honest and useful way to think about lasting love.
Because the truth is, a strong relationship isn't built by avoiding the hard seasons. It’s built by learning the lessons from them and finding your way back to each other when those seasons come.
