The popular SSH client program PuTTY has released the latest version of its software that includes security patches for 8 high-severity security vulnerabilities.

PuTTY is one of the most popular and widely used open-source client-side programs that allows users to remotely access computers over SSH, Telnet, and Rlogin network protocols.

Almost 20 months after releasing the last version of its software, the developers of PuTTY earlier this week released the latest version 0.71 for Windows and Unix operating systems.

Happy Pi Day, everyone!

What is Pi Day, we hear you ask? Today, people who use the date format ‘month/day/year’ celebrate that the date forms the first three digits of Pi: 3.14!

In celebration of Pi Day, we’re running a Raspberry Pi 3B+ live stream on YouTube — hours upon hours of our favourite Pi in all its glorious wonderment.

Applied Science shows how to build an EDM drilling machine, describe how it works, and where to buy parts.
And I must say, this thing is incredible!

ALON – Transparent Aluminum – is a ceramic composed of Aluminium, Oxygen and Nitrogen. Transparent Aluminum, was once pure science fiction, a technical term used in a Star Trek Movie from the 80’s.

Another topic near and dear to our hearts at Crackedconsole, Retro PC and Retro Gaming. I personally started my true PC adventures on a 486 SX33 with DOS 6.22 and eventually Windows 3.11

Let’s take a look with Dan Wood and his venture back to those days with a 486 PC in today’s world.

Google has promised us new hardware products for machine learning at the edge, and now it’s finally out. The thing you’re going to take away from this is that Google built a Raspberry Pi with machine learning. This is Google’s Coral, with an Edge TPU platform, a custom-made ASIC that is designed to run machine learning algorithms ‘at the edge’. Here is the link to the board that looks like a Raspberry Pi.

This new hardware was launched ahead of the TensorFlow Dev Summit, revolving around machine learning and ‘AI’ in embedded applications, specifically power- and computationally-limited environments. This is ‘the edge’ in marketing speak, and already we’ve seen a few products designed from the ground up to run ML algorithms and inference in embedded applications. There are RISC-V microcontrollers with machine learning accelerators available now, and Nvidia has been working on this for years. Now Google is throwing their hat into the ring with a custom-designed ASIC that accelerates TensorFlow. It just so happens that the board looks like a Raspberry Pi.
