Security automation is the process of using tech to back up your site, scan for security weaknesses, and carry out related tasks—without any manual work involved. When a security concern materializes, you need to squash it fast before it affects your company’s finances and its reputation with customers.

The change is Mastodon’s most significant leadership overhaul to date, and one designed to ensure Mastodon’s longevity. As part of the organization’s restructuring, Mastodon will be governed by a board of directors, which today includes Twitter co-founder Biz Stone, Karien Bezuidenhout, Esra’a Al Shafei, Mastodon Community Director Hannah Aubry (who will be stepping down), and Felix Hlatky, who will be taking the role of…

There aren’t a ton of fussy ingredients in my pantry, but one staple I’ll never go without is good olive oil. After hearing celebrity chefs and restaurant pros weigh in on their favorites—and doing a few rounds of my own taste tests—I’ve finally landed on a favorite: Graza. After years of shelling out for the high-quality stuff, I was thrilled when it started showing up on Costco shelves. But recently, things got even better: the wildly popular olive oil has gone on sale for less than anyone could’ve expected—the cheapest it’s ever been seen. Graza Olive Oil on Sale at…

Ask yourself the following: Do you reply to reviews? Do you engage? Do you make the interaction feel personal? Do you follow through on your promises? Do you keep information consistent across every platform? Do you share fresh updates (ex: photos, posts, or promotions) that show you’re active? Do you provide transparent details like pricing, wait times, or insurance accepted? If you answered no to any of the aforementioned, it’s time to switch to a brand experience mentality. That shift shows up clearly in the data. Six in ten people say they at least sometimes click on Google’s AI-generated overviews,…

There was a video making the rounds on social media a while back featuring Aretha Franklin. She was asked, “What are your biggest challenges?” Without much thought, she responded, “The biggest challenge for me is what to cook for dinner nightly.” I never thought the Queen of Soul and I would have so much in common! As a recipe developer, I get paid to come up with recipes, but figuring out what to cook for dinner night after night for my husband and myself often feels like solving a complex math equation. Deciding what to make for dinner shouldn’t be…

I don’t know about you, but my 2025 earworms are pretty much exclusively trending songs from TikTok at this point. (Even the non-music sounds from TikTok tend to get stuck in my head, but I digress…)The catchiness of these tunes is incredibly powerful for creators and brands on the social media platform to tap into, because not only do users remember the song — chances are, videos that featured the track will probably stick in their minds, too.Beyond memorability, of course, is the algorithmic effect of being right on the cusp of a trending TikTok song. And who would say…

To address this challenge, we propose \textbf{CA}usal \textbf{MA}thematician (\textbf{CAMA}), a two-stage causal framework that equips LLMs with explicit, reusable mathematical structure. In the learning stage, CAMA first…
