Virtual Superlensing Made a Reality (3 minute read)

Superlensing is a way to see things that are smaller than the wavelength of light. Two researchers from the University of Sydney Nano Institute recently developed a superlensing technique that doesn't require any actual lenses.

While the method is not the first nor the highest resolution technique available, it is much faster and less costly than other techniques.

Youtube’s Anti-adblock and uBlock Origin (4 minute read)

YouTube has recently ramped up its anti-adblock efforts. This article looks at how YouTube is doing this and the efforts from Redditors and adblock extension developers to bypass them. While developers are able to still bypass YouTube's anti-adblocking methods, YouTube will likely win this war through attrition - there is a limit to how much adblock developers can take and YouTube has the resources to continue on forever.
