Drop is a new open-source tool for sandboxing Linux applications without root privileges, and it supports gVisor, Google's application kernel for stronger isolation. It is currently the top post on Hacker News, where users are discussing the project and its approach to running untrusted code safely on a Linux machine. The reaction so far is mixed, with the technical community weighing its usefulness against existing sandboxing options.
- 4Teenager pens letters to jailed climate activists in new documentary●Prison Letters: the teenager writing letters to jailed climate activists – documentary
A Guardian documentary follows Max, a 14-year-old struggling with climate anxiety, as he writes letters to imprisoned climate activists. Through correspondence, he seeks to understand the human stories behind direct action and why so many protesters have served time in prison. The film offers a personal, hopeful lens on climate activism and its legal consequences.
- 5Heavy water isotopes improve weather forecast accuracy●Heavy water isotopes make weather predictions more accurate
Researchers report that tracking heavy water isotopes—water molecules containing deuterium instead of ordinary hydrogen—can make weather predictions more accurate. By measuring these isotope ratios in atmospheric moisture, scientists gain extra information about where water vapour originated and how it moved through the water cycle. The finding suggests isotope data could become a valuable addition to existing weather models.
- 6NVIDIA launches Open Agent Safety Platform for AI agents▼Will kernel isolation plus a silicon kill switch stop agents that already know how to fake their own logs? NVIDIA’s Open
NVIDIA has introduced an Open Agent Safety Platform combining Apache 2.0-licensed OpenShell with Sentry running on BlueField-4 hardware, aimed at controlling AI agents at the kernel and silicon level. More than 100 partners are listed for the launch. Discussion centres on whether kernel isolation and hardware kill switches can restrain agents capable of falsifying their own logs.
