We spent a century dismantling every institution that tried to teach people how to be good. Now we're building AI on the wreckage and wondering why it has no soul.

🚨 do you understand what just happened to your passwords

cpuid one of the most trusted sites in PC hardware.
hacked. April 10th, 2026. CPU-Z and HWMonitor. both compromised.

> fake CRYPTBASE.dll ships inside the installer
> connects to C2, downloads a C# file
> compiles it silently using YOUR own Windows tools
> injects into memory. never touches disk. AV sees nothing.
> opens Chrome's password vault. dumps everything.

the chain:
cpuid → HWMonitor installer → DLL hijack
→ supp0v3[.]com → silent .NET compile
→ in-memory injection → Chrome credentials stolen

same group. same C2 domain. hit FileZilla in March 2026.
they got lazy. that's the only reason we caught it.

Cardiologist wins 3rd place at Anthropic's hackathon. Out of 13,000 applications. Built in 7 days by Michał Nedoszytko MD. Coded day and night - in the hospital, in the cloud, while flying from Brussels to San Francisco.
A few years ago, it would have been impossible for a doctor to build this alone in just a couple of days. AI changed that.

The project is called https://t.co/wAliajqjVF. It is an AI agentic care platform for patients. Including reverse AI scribe it is a companion that guides the patient from the moment they leave the doctor's office.

Powered by the massive context window of Opus 4.6, it allows patients to explore their full medical history, connected devices, Evidence Based resources and external data sources — all in one place.

Today, the barrier to entry has vanished; even a practicing physician can build an application from scratch.

HUMMINGBIRD LOVERS GET READY! The great hummingbird migration has just started...with several sightings already along the Gulf Coast. You'll start to see even more into March across the Southeast and will continue to spread north through May. Get those hummingbird feeders out!

James Sexton, divorce attorney who's seen it all, drops a raw truth bomb:

Our entire society is engineered to distract you from the one fact that would shatter the consumer machine—if you truly internalized that you're going to die, you'd stop buying most of the meaningless shit they're selling.

He proposes a radical reset: Mandatory 1–2 years of hospice volunteering at 18.

Why? Because spending time with the dying strips everything bare.
They don't talk about their bank accounts, status, or possessions.

They talk about:

- The people they loved

- The connections they made

- The beautiful (and painful) experiences

All the "important" drama in your day evaporates the moment you walk out of that room.

Sexton shares his mom's final cancer surgery—20 minutes in, doctors closed her up: cancer everywhere, nothing more to do. In that instant, every other worry in his life got turned down to zero volume. All that mattered was time left to love her, to make sure she knew.

Reminder: There is a finite number of times you'll kiss your wife, hug your kids, call your parents. You don't know the number. You'll only realize it after you've passed it.

That finitude is what makes every moment sacred.
Living forever would be a curse.
Right now, the people you love are alive—right now.
Kiss them as many times as you want.
That is the greatest thing in the world.

Powerful, uncomfortable, beautiful perspective. Keep death in your line of sight—it's the ultimate clarity filter.

The fact that you can just plug sensors into the VGA port of an old laptop and get data out is crazy to me.

It’s always fun finding GPIO in strange places.
