Moonshine is an application that enables users to stream games from their PC to any device running Moonlight, allowing remote play as if the user were sitting in front of the host computer. It supports isolated streaming sessions, no monitor requirement, hardware video encoding (H.264, H.265, AV1), HDR support, full input support for keyboard, mouse, and gamepad, and audio streaming with low-latency Opus encoding.

• Runs isolated streaming sessions in its own compositor.
• Works on headless servers without needing an HDMI dummy plug.
• Uses GPU for H.264, H.265, and AV1 encoding.
• Supports True 10-bit HDR streaming.
• Offers full support for mouse, keyboard, and gamepad inputs.
• Streams stereo and surround sound with low-latency Opus encoding.

Airbus has chosen French cloud services provider Scaleway over AWS for hosting 900 applications due to concerns about data sovereignty and security. The move highlights the importance of digital sovereignty as a commercial driver, particularly when sensitive information is involved.

• Sensitive information will be under European control, avoiding potential access by American platforms like AWS.
• Supply chain management remains a challenge due to reliance on Microsoft systems among suppliers.

Quality:
The article provides a balanced view of the situation, discussing both the reasons for Airbus' decision and potential challenges.

The article discusses the potential threat posed by the Trump administration's proposed rule changes to federal financial assistance regulations, which could lead to a centralized control of science funding and undermine America's decentralized system. The rule has been criticized for giving political appointees discretion over funding decisions, potentially leading to politicization, abuse, and corruption.

• Critics argue the new rule could lead to politicization, abuse, and corruption in scientific research funding.
• Independent thinkers have expressed concerns about the potential for political interference in science projects.
• The shift towards centralized control is seen as a departure from historical American virtues of independent science.

Quality:
The article presents a balanced view of the proposed rule changes and their potential impacts, citing various sources to support its arguments.

The article discusses the connection between the Riemann zeta function and the distribution of prime numbers, exploring Euler's work on infinite series and logarithms to understand how common primes are compared to other integers. It also introduces Riemann's explicit formula for estimating the number of primes less than a given number, linking it to the zeros of the Riemann zeta function.

• Euclid proved there are infinitely many primes.
• Evaluating the sum of reciprocals of primes leads to the Riemann zeta function.
• The Euler product formula connects prime factorization with calculus.

The article discusses a technique for eliminating bounds checks in Go code by utilizing unsafe pointer arithmetic, which can significantly reduce instruction and branch counts in hot paths, leading to performance improvements.

• The Go compiler can often eliminate bound checks if the programmer proves they are unnecessary.
• Unsafe techniques, such as unsafe pointer arithmetic, can be used when conventional methods fail to remove bounds checks.
• An example of eliminating bounds checks in a real-world scenario using the brotli library is provided.
