Wireless power is going to be awesome someday. I like Disney's (yes, really) new approach of building a metal room with kW of standing waves. They claim it scales down to a charging cabinet or up to a warehouse. Does the big metal pole have to be in the center of the room though?
It's been an exciting week for infosec. First, a pretty comprehensive side channel-based ASLR attack that works from javascript. Then, you know, a sha1 collision was announced and it turns out that CloudFlare has been leaking secure memory segments for months thanks to a pretty gnarly interaction between Ragel-generated state machines. I think the fascinating part is that even generating your C doesn't absolve you from thinking deeply and carefully about pointer arithmetic. I'll just stick to Rust, thanks.
