Nobody Owns These Cameras: The Security Problem Hiding on America's Public Roads

0
·1 views

Last month, a county employee in Florida walked a stretch of public road and counted fourteen cameras that nobody had authorized. Three belonged to the sheriff's office. The other eleven had no publicly identified owner, no permit on file, and no agency that could answer the question commissioners cared about: who can search what these devices recorded (Source: WPEC/CBS12, 2026; Gadget Review, 2026). Atlanta-based Flock Safety says it operates more than 120,000 of these devices nationwide (Source: Flock Safety, 2026). At that scale, the question is no longer whether the cameras exist.

I Combined the Best Parts of Every Budgeting App I’ve Used, and Made It Free and Open Source (FlyBudget)

I’ve always been a little too interested in tracking my money. I like knowing where it went, what I’m spending too much on, and how much I’m actually saving. Because of that, I’ve tried a LOT (a lot..) of budgeting apps over the years. I kept running into the same problem: I’d really like parts of an app, but there were always other things I wished worked differently. Eventually I had the very predictable software engineer thought of, “I could probably just build this myself.” So I did!

Kubernetes SR-IOV Multi-Rail GPU Networking: Missing Route Configuration for Cross-Rail Communication

Introduction: Mastering Cross-Rail Communication in Kubernetes SR-IOV GPU Networking In high-performance computing environments, GPU-accelerated workloads drive advancements in AI, machine learning, and scientific simulations, demanding robust and efficient networking architectures. Kubernetes, coupled with Single-Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV), has become a cornerstone for managing GPU resources at scale, offering low-latency and high-throughput connectivity. However, as demonstrated in our case study, configuring cross-rail communication in multi-rail GPU setups presents significant challe

Golang REST API: Handling Undefined vs. Null Attributes in JSON PATCH Requests with Gin and Validator

Introduction In the realm of REST APIs, particularly those built with Golang, Gin, and Validator, the distinction between undefined and null attributes in JSON payloads is not just a nuance—it’s a critical operational requirement. This distinction directly impacts how data is manipulated during PATCH requests, where the intent behind an attribute’s absence or explicit nullification must be unambiguously interpreted. Failure to differentiate these states can lead to data inconsistencies, loss of critical information, and compromised system integrity, as the API may incorrectly overwrite, delete
