A developer built mdc-lite, a ~348KB embeddable encrypted key-value store in Rust that encodes ciphertext as DNA-like A/C/G/T strings before writing to disk. The design, part of the ModelDB repo, uses…
BLAKE3, a secure hash function, now runs more than twice as fast on Apple Silicon after the discovery of unannounced wide-vector SIMD capabilities in Apple M4 and M5 chips, accessed via the SMSTART in…
Spacedrive, a cross-platform file explorer powered by a virtual distributed file system, has released version 2.0, offering apps for macOS, Windows, Linux, iOS, and Android. The platform indexes files…
Researchers have demonstrated a key-recovery attack against the HAWK-256 cryptographic hash function, enabling secret key reconstruction without brute-force search. The vulnerability, which exploits d…
SapixDB is an AI-native database that uses cryptographic chains to secure data, enabling instant audit trails and time-travel queries. It automatically encrypts PHI fields for HIPAA compliance and tra…
Epic Games open-sourced Lore, a version control system built for large binary files, at State of Unreal 2026 alongside Unreal Engine 5.8. The MIT-licensed, Rust-based tool uses content-defined chunkin…
A developer built Nanogate, a software-only gate in Rust that re-tests admissibility before every AI agent action in approximately 530 nanoseconds. The tool addresses the failure of point-in-time appr…
A developer created a program called Rhymesum that generates five-line poems as file fingerprints by computing a BLAKE3 hash and using it to seed an LLM sampler. The toy project, which is not cryptogr…
