Submission+-Univ. of Waterloo Coding Competition Results Withheld Over Suspected AI Cheating

Submitted by theodp
theodp writes: Finding that many students violated rules and submitted code not written by themselves, the University of Waterloo's Centre for Computing and Math decided not to release results from its annual Canadian Computing Competition (CCC), which many students rely on to bolster their chances of being accepted into Waterloo’s prestigious computing and engineering programs, or land a spot on teams to represent Canada in international competitions.

"It is clear that many students submitted code that they did not write themselves, relying instead on forbidden external help," the CCC co-chairs explained in a statement. "As such, the reliability of 'ranking' students would neither be equitable, fair, or accurate. [...] It is disappointing that the students who violated the CCC Rules will impact those students who are deserving of recognition. We are considering possible ways to address this problem for future contests."

Submission+-Should Kids Who Don't Take a CS and AI Class Be Denied a HS Diploma?

Submitted by theodp
theodp writes: Code.org, the tech-backed nonprofit behind the 2022 CEOs for CS PR campaign credited with arm-twisting the nation's Governors into signing a Compact to Expand K-12 CS Education for their states, will be "bringing together a powerful coalition of industry leaders, including visionaries like Satya Nadella, to champion computer science and AI education as essential to building the workforce of the future" as part of a new national campaign called Unlock8 that will launch in early May.

By joining the Unlock8 Coalition, a Code.org Advocacy Coalition Unlock8 pitch deck aimed at attracting Business, Education, and Nonprofit leaders explains, "your organization and executives can publicly align their names and influence with this transformative initiative, demonstrating a shared commitment to making computer science a high school graduation requirement in all 50 states." A mock-up of a planned May 4th New York Times print ad to kick off the campaign is signed by the likes of Satya Nadella, Steve Ballmer, Reid Hoffman, Michael Dell, and Marc Benioff. It begins with a question and some big assertions drawn from a 2024 Univ. of Maryland study: "What if a single class could help close wage gaps, unlock $660 billion in economic potential every year for everyday Americans, and address the skills gap we currently face? This is possible, today — if we include computer science and AI as a core part of every student's education. Just one high school computer science class boosts wages 8% for all students, regardless of career path or whether they attend college."

Tech led and bankrolled coalitions to push CS education into K-12 classroom are nothing new — Microsoft and Google kicked off the Computing in the Core Advocacy Coalition in 2010 (later merged into Code.org) with the goal of graduating a 21st Century Workforce. The call to add now-critically-important-to-big-tech AI into the K-12 education mix — jump-started by President Trump's signing of the Advancing AI Education for American Youth executive order earlier this week — and the call to deny high school diplomas to kids who don't complete a CS course merely ups the ante.

Submission+-XPrize in Carbon Removal Goes to Enhanced Rock Weathering (ieee.org)

Submitted by Anonymous Coward
An anonymous reader writes: The XPrize Foundation today announced the winners of its four-year, $100 million XPrize competition in carbon removal. The contest is one of dozens hosted by the foundation in its 20-year effort to encourage technological development. Contestants in the carbon removal XPrize had to demonstrate ways to pull carbon dioxide from the atmosphere or oceans and sequester it sustainably.

Mati Carbon, a Houston-based startup developing a sequestration technique called enhanced rock weathering, won the grand prize of $50 million. The company spreads crushed basalt on small farms in India and Africa. The silica-rich volcanic rock improves the quality of the soil for the crops but also helps remove carbon dioxide from the air. It does this by reacting with dissolved CO2 in the soil’s water, turning it into bicarbonate ions and preventing it from returning to the atmosphere.

More than a dozen organizations globally are developing enhanced rock weathering approaches at an industrial scale, but Mati’s tech-heavy verification and software platform caught the XPrize judges’ attention. “On the one hand, they’re moving rocks around in trucks—that’s not very techy. But when we looked under the hood... what we saw was a very impressive data-collection exercise,” says Michael Leitch, XPrize’s technical lead for the competition.

Submission+-Netflix Introduces a New Kind of Subtitles For the Non-Hearing Impaired (arstechnica.com)

Submitted by Anonymous Coward
An anonymous reader writes: Multiple studies and investigations have found that about half of American households watch TV and movies with subtitles on, but only a relatively small portion of those include someone with a hearing disability. That's because of the trouble many people have understanding dialogue in modern viewing situations, and Netflix has now introduced a subtitles option to help.

The closed captioning we've all been using for years includes not only the words the people on-screen are saying, but additional information needed by the hard of hearing, including character names, music cues ("dramatic music intensifies") and sound effects ("loud explosion"). For those who just wanted to make sure they didn't miss a word here and there, the frequent descriptions of sound effects and music could be distracting. This new format omits those extras, just including the spoken words and nothing else—even in the same language as the spoken dialogue. The feature will be available in new Netflix original programming, starting with the new season of You in multiple languages. Netflix says it's looking at bringing the option to older titles in the library (including those not produced by Netflix) in the future.

Traditional closed captions are still available, of course. Those are labeled "English CC" whereas this new option is simply labeled "English" (or whatever your preferred language is).

Weeks after BIOS developer AMI released an update fixing a critical vulnerability in its MegaRAC baseband management controller (BMC) firmware used in many enterprise servers and storage systems, OEM patches addressing the issue are slowly trickling out.

The latest vendor to release patches was Lenovo, which appears to have taken until April 17 to release its patch. And although Asus patches for four motherboard models appeared only this week, the exact time these were posted is unconfirmed; the dates on the updates range from March 12 to March 28.

Among the first to release a patch was Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE), which on March 20 released an update for its HPE Cray XD670, used for AI and high-performance computing (HPC) workloads. Other OEMs known to use AMI’s MegaRAC BMC include AMD, Ampere Computing, ASRock, ARM, Fujitsu, Gigabyte, Huawei, Nvidia, Supermicro, and Qualcomm.

AmiMoJo writes: China will let scientists from six countries, including the US, examine the rocks it collected from the Moon — a scientific collaboration that comes as the two countries remain locked in a bitter trade war.

Two Nasa-funded US institutions have been granted access to the lunar samples collected by the Chang'e-5 mission in 2020, the China National Space Administration (CNSA) said on Thursday.

CNSA chief Shan Zhongde said that the samples were "a shared treasure for all humanity," local media reported.

Chinese researchers have not been able to access Nasa's Moon samples because of restrictions imposed by US lawmakers on the space agency's collaboration with China.

Under the 2011 law, Nasa is banned from collaboration with China or any Chinese-owned companies unless it is specifically authorised by Congress.

But John Logsdon, the former director of the Space Policy Institute at George Washington University, told BBC Newshour that the latest exchange of Moon rocks have "very little to do with politics".

While there are controls on space technology, the examination of lunar samples had "nothing of military significance", he said.

"It's international cooperation in science which is the norm."

Submission+-Perplexity CEO Says Its Browser Will Track Everything Users Do To Sell Ads (techcrunch.com)

Submitted by Anonymous Coward
An anonymous reader writes: Perplexity CEO Aravind Srinivas said this week on the TBPN podcast that one reason Perplexity is building its own browser is to collect data on everything users do outside of its own app. This so it can sell premium ads. “That’s kind of one of the other reasons we wanted to build a browser, is we want to get data even outside the app to better understand you,” Srinivas said. “Because some of the prompts that people do in these AIs is purely work-related. It’s not like that’s personal.”

And work-related queries won’t help the AI company build an accurate-enough dossier. “On the other hand, what are the things you’re buying; which hotels are you going [to]; which restaurants are you going to; what are you spending time browsing, tells us so much more about you,” he explained. Srinivas believes that Perplexity’s browser users will be fine with such tracking because the ads should be more relevant to them. “We plan to use all the context to build a better user profile and, maybe you know, through our discover feed we could show some ads there,” he said. The browser, named Comet, suffered setbacks but is on track to be launched in May, Srinivas said.

Submission+-Code.org, Tech Leaders Launching Campaign for a CS and AI Graduation Requirement

From the LinkedIn post: "We're working with states to make CS and AI a graduation requirement, backed by research that shows one course can boost earnings by 8% and employment by 3%. Our future is being built on AI. AI is built on CS. We teach both."

A mid-April pitch deck on Unlock8 by the Code.org Advocacy Coalition further explains: "Code.org is bringing together a powerful coalition of industry leaders, including visionaries like Satya Nadella, to champion computer science and AI education as essential to building the workforce of the future. By joining the Unlock8 Coalition, your organization and executives can publicly align their names and influence with this transformative initiative, demonstrating a shared commitment to making computer science a high school graduation requirement in all 50 states."

Submission+-AB 1228 One Year Later: Over 22,000 Fast Food jobs have been lost in California (californiaglobe.com) 2

Submitted by Anonymous Coward
An anonymous reader writes: Assembly Bill 1228, the extremely controversial law that raised the fast food minimum wage to $20 an hour in California, turned one year old on Tuesday. And the differences between now and a year have been shown to be pretty stark.

According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics’ Current Employment Statistics (CES), 22,717 fast food jobs have been lost in the past year when seasonally adjusted. The Berkeley Research Group also found that fast food prices in California have gone up by 14.5% since a year ago – about double the national average of 8.2%. And that’s not even getting into the 89% of all restaurants in the state reducing employee hours to offset rising costs, with 87% planning additional cuts over the next year.

That’s where we are a year later.

For those who support AB 1228, they have been hard pressed to find anything positive about it for well over a year. AB 1228, authored by then-Assemblyman Chris Holden (D-Los Angeles), was one of the most contentious bills in 2023. The Holden bill originally tried for a $22 wage for fast food workers, but it was negotiated down, with the $20 amount narrowly passing both houses in the California legislature and being signed by Governor Gavin Newsom.

Before April 1, 2024, thousands of fast food jobs were shed by companies in anticipation for the higher costs, including Pizza Hut who let go 1,200 drivers alone. Lawmakers also knew that there was suddenly going to be a lot of lost jobs, and hastily brought in exemptions for fast food restaurants in airports, stadiums, theme parks and other major public areas.

Nonetheless, job losses quickly mounted after April 1st of last year when the law went online. Not only job losses either – many workers found that they were now working fewer hours or lost a shift as a result. In addition, restaurants automated what they could to avoid the higher wages, including investing in touch screen kiosks over having more traditional cashiers. Some fast food restaurants also closed, as the 25% wage increase from $16 to $20 ruined their thin profit margins.

If only California legislators who voted for it could be forced to pay for the mess they've created.

Submission+-50+ House Democrats demand answers after whistleblower report on DOGE (npr.org) 1

Submitted by echo123
echo123 writes: Over fifty Democratic lawmakers have signed a letter demanding answers from senior U.S. government officials about a recent potential exposure of sensitive data about American workers.

The letter is addressed to the acting General Counsel of the National Labor Relations Board, William Cowen. The independent agency is in charge of investigating and adjudicating complaints about unfair labor practices and protecting U.S. workers' rights to form unions.

The lawmakers, who are part of the Congressional Labor Caucus, wrote the letter in light of news first reported by NPR, that a whistleblower inside the IT Department of the NLRB says DOGE may have removed sensitive labor data and exposed NLRB systems to being compromised.

"These revelations from the whistleblower report are highly concerning for a number of reasons," the lawmakers wrote in the letter to Cowen. "If true, these revelations describe a reckless approach to the handling of sensitive personal information of workers, which could leave these workers exposed to retaliation for engaging in legally protected union activity."

The letter refers to an official whistleblower disclosure made by Daniel Berulis, a cloud administrator in the IT department of the NLRB, who also spoke to NPR in multiple interviews.

In his disclosure, Berulis shared that he initially became concerned in March when members of President Donald Trump's Department of Government Efficiency initiative arrived at the agency and demanded high-level access to the systems without their activities being logged. Those fears escalated after he tracked a large chunk of data leaving the agency at the same time as many security controls and auditing tools were turned off, the disclosure continues.

Ultimately, Berulis became concerned that DOGE, which is effectively led by Trump adviser and billionaire CEO Elon Musk, could have accessed sensitive internal information about ongoing investigations into U.S. companies, witness affidavits and even corporate secrets. The alleged insecure practices and removal of data could also create vulnerabilities for criminal hackers or foreign adversaries to exploit, Berulis explained in his official disclosure.

The company has released a working rootkit called âoeCuringâ that uses io_uring, a feature built into the Linux kernel, to stealthily perform malicious activities without being caught by many of the detection solutions currently on the market.

At the heart of the issue is the heavy reliance on monitoring system calls, which has become the go-to method for many cybersecurity vendors. The problem? Attackers can completely sidestep these monitored calls by leaning on io_uring instead. This clever method could let bad actors quietly make network connections or tamper with files without triggering the usual alarms.

Submission+-Scientists Say They Can Calculate the Cost of Oil Giants' Role In Global Warming (washingtonpost.com)

Submitted by Anonymous Coward
An anonymous reader writes: Oil and gas companies are facinghundreds of lawsuitsaround the world testing whether they can be held responsible for their role in causing climate change. Now, two scientists say they’ve built a tool that can calculate how much damage each company’s planet-warming pollution has caused — and how much money they could be forced to pay if they’re successfully sued. Collectively, greenhouse emissions from 111 fossil fuel companies caused the world $28 trillion in damage from extreme heat from 1991 to 2020, according to apaper published Wednesday in Nature. The new analysis could fuel an emerging legal fight.The authors, Dartmouth associate professor Justin Mankin and Chris Callahan, a postdoctoral researcher at Stanford University, say their model can determine a specific company’s share of responsibility over any time period. [...]

Callahan and Mankin’s work combines all of these steps — estimating a company’s historical emissions, figuring out how much those emissions contributed to climate change and calculating how much economic damage climate change has caused — into one “end-to-end” model that links one polluter’s emissions to a dollar amount of economic damage from extreme heat. By their calculation, Saudi Aramco is on the hook for $2.05 trillion in economic losses from extreme heat from 1991 to 2020. Russia’s Gazprom is responsible for $2 trillion, Chevron for $1.98 trillion, ExxonMobil for $1.91 trillion and BP for $1.45 trillion. Industry groups and companies tend to object to the methodologies of attribution science. They could seek to contest the assumptions that went into each step of Mankin and Callahan’s model.

Indeed, every step in that process introduces some room for error, and stringing together all of those steps compounds the uncertainty in the model, according to Delta Merner, lead scientist at theScience Hub for Climate Litigation, which connects scientists and lawyers bringing climate lawsuits. She also mentioned that the researchers relied on a commonly used but simplified climate model known as the Finite Amplitude Impulse Response (FAIR) model. “It is robust for the purpose of what the study is doing,” Merner said, “but these models do make assumptions about climate sensitivity, about carbon cycle behavior, energy balance, and all of the simplifications in there do introduce some uncertainty.” The exact dollar figures in the paper aren’t intended as gospel. But outside scientists said Mankin and Callahan use well-established, peer-reviewed datasets and climate models for every step in their process, and they are transparent about the uncertainty in the numbers.

Submission+-Stroke Patients Have High Levels of Microplastics Clogging Their Arteries (businessinsider.com)

Submitted by Anonymous Coward
An anonymous reader writes: "There is some microplastics in normal, healthy arteries," Dr. Ross Clark, a University of New Mexico medical researcher who led the study, told Business Insider before he presented his findings at the meeting of the American Heart Association in Baltimore on Tuesday. "But the amount that's there when they become diseased — and become diseased with symptoms — is really, really different," Clark said. Clark and his team measured microplastics and nanoplastics in the dangerous, fatty plaque that can build up in arteries, block blood flow, and cause strokes or heart attacks. Compared to the walls of healthy plaque-free arteries, plaque buildup had 16 times more plastic — just in the people who didn't have symptoms. In people who had experienced stroke, mini-stroke, or vision loss, the plaque had 51 times more plastic. [...]

To investigate why, Clark studied samples from 48 people's carotid arteries — the pair of superhighways in your neck that channel blood to your brain. The difference in plastic quantities surprised him, but his team found another concerning trend, too. Cells in the plaque with lots of plastic showed different gene activity than those with low plastic. In the high-plastic environment, one group of immune cells had switched off a gene that's associated with turning off inflammation. Clark's team also found genetic differences in a group of stem cells thought to help prevent heart attacks and strokes by reducing inflammation and stabilizing plaque. "Could it be that microplastics are somehow altering their gene expression?" Clark said. He added that there's "lots more research needed to fully establish that, but at least it gives us a hint as to where to look."

Ross, who specializes in the genetic mechanisms behind disease, agreed that more research is needed, but added that she thinks "these plastics are doing something with these plaques." Tracking microplastics in the human body is a new scientific endeavor as of the last couple years. It's not perfect. Clark's team heated the plaque samples to more than 1,000 degrees Fahrenheit to vaporize plastic polymers and break them down into smaller organic molecules, which can be identified and measured by their mass and other properties. Unfortunately, the lipids in plaque can break down into chemicals that look very similar to polyethylene, the most common plastic found in everything from plastic bags to car parts. "Because we know about this problem, we've taken a lot of steps to remove those lipids and confirm their removal, so that we're sure we're measuring polyethylene," Clark said. Still, he added, "it's a big limitation, and it should be acknowledged that these types of methodologies are continuously improving."

This means the company cannot alter the deal further, like it almost did in early 2023, leading to considerable pushback and, eventually, a retreat. It was a long quest, but the lawful good party has earned some long-term rewards, including a new, similarly licensed reference book. [...] Version 5.2 of the SRD, all 360-plus pages of it, has now been released under the same Creative Commons license. The major change is that it includes more 2024 5th edition (i.e., D&D One) rules and content, while version 5.1 focused on 2014 rules. Legally, you can now design and publish campaigns under the 2024 5th edition rule set. More importantly, more aspects of the newest D&D rule books are available under a free license:

— "Rhythm of Play" and "Exploration" documentation
— More character origins and backgrounds, including criminal, sage, soldier, and the goliath and orc species.
— 16 feats, including archery, great weapon fighting, and seven boons
— Five bits of equipment, 20 spells, 15 magic items, and 17 monsters, including the hippopotamus

There are some aspects of D&D you still can't really touch without bumping up against copyrights. Certain monsters from the Monster Manual, like the Kraken, are in the public domain, but their specific stats in the D&D rulebook are copyrighted. Iconic creatures and species like the Beholder, Displacer Beast, Illithid, Githyanki, Yuan-Ti, and others remain the property of WotC (and thereby Hasbro). As a creator, you'll still need to do some History (or is it Arcana?) checks before you publish and sell.

The admission comes after weeks of complaints about technical problems and irregularities during the exam administration, reports the Los Angeles Times. The State Bar disclosed that its psychometrician (a person skilled in administrating psychological tests), ACS Ventures, created 23 of the 171 scored multiple-choice questions with AI assistance. Another 48 questions came from a first-year law student exam, while Kaplan Exam Services developed the remaining 100 questions.

The State Bar defended its practices, telling the LA Times that all questions underwent review by content validation panels and subject matter experts before the exam. "The ACS questions were developed with the assistance of AI and subsequently reviewed by content validation panels and a subject matter expert in advance of the exam," wrote State Bar Executive Director Leah Wilson in a press release. According to the LA Times, the revelation has drawn strong criticism from several legal education experts. "The debacle that was the February 2025 bar exam is worse than we imagined," said Mary Basick, assistant dean of academic skills at the University of California, Irvine School of Law. "I'm almost speechless. Having the questions drafted by non-lawyers using artificial intelligence is just unbelievable." Katie Moran, an associate professor at the University of San Francisco School of Law who specializes in bar exam preparation, called it "a staggering admission." She pointed out that the same company that drafted AI-generated questions also evaluated and approved them for use on the exam.

Submission+-Censorship and fraud driving creators away from YouTube1

NewtonsLaw writes: When YouTuber Bruce Simpson received notification of a community guidelines infringement on his xjet YouTube channel he wasn't happy. YouTube alleges that one of his videos constitutes "hate speech" and even after review, the platform stands by its allegations.

What was the video that risks inciting hate and violence to such an extent that it needed to be removed, even after "appeal"?

Well it wasn't anything political, ideological or even violent. It was a two minute video of a radio controlled model aircraft flying in the skies at his local airfield in Tokoroa, New Zealand.

Incensed by this baseless allegation, Simpson posted this video to YouTube and within a few hours it had already gathered tens of thousands of views and over a thousand comments. Those comments make for great reading and show just how "out of touch" YouTube has become with its target audience and its creators.

The hypocrisy is also highlighted, as Simpson points out just how YouTube is prepared to overlook or even support frauds being perpetrated on its audience by way of scam advertisements that continue to play weeks or even months after they've been reported by countless people, many of who have become victims of the scams.

Has YouTube lost its way? Has it forgotten its roots? Are many creators now turning to self-hosting in reaction to ridiculous levels of censorship?

Or do we have a reverse adpocalypse — where content creators are shunning YouTube because they do not want their content being run alongside fraudulent scammy ads placed by YouTube?
