| π How we decreased GitLab repo backup times from 48 hours to 41 minutes | Manuel Kraft, Karthik Nayak | GitLab significantly reduced its repository backup times from 48 hours to 41 minutes by identifying and fixing a performance bottleneck in a 15-year-old Git function. The issue was traced to an O(NΒ²) complexity within the git bundle create command, which was resolved by replacing nested loops with a map data structure. This enhancement dramatically improves backup strategies, reduces business risk, and lowers operational overhead for GitLab customers. The fix has been contributed upstream to Git, benefiting the broader Git community and is available to all GitLab customers regardless of their license tier. | git, open source, product, performance, devsecops platform, backup, scalability |
| π Japanese Researchers Develop βTransparent Paperβ as Alternative to Plastics; New Material Is Biodegradable, Can Be Produced with Low Carbon Emissions | unknown | Japanese researchers have developed a transparent paper from cellulose as a biodegradable alternative to plastics. The paper, made from cotton seed fibers, is as strong as polycarbonate and can be broken down by microbes into water and carbon dioxide. It remains flexible even at 0.7 millimeters thick and mostly dissolves in the ocean within four months, even at significant depths.

| π Breakthrough in search for HIV cure leaves researchers βoverwhelmedβ | unknown | Researchers in Melbourne have made a breakthrough in the search for an HIV cure by finding a new way to force the virus out of hiding inside human cells. The team demonstrated a method using mRNA technology to make the virus visible within white blood cells, which was previously thought impossible. This involves encasing mRNA in a specially formulated fat bubble (LNP X) that can be delivered into cells where HIV hides, instructing them to reveal the virus. While further research is needed, this discovery represents a major potential advance in delivering mRNA for therapeutic purposes to blood cells and could have broader implications beyond HIV. | hiv, cure, mrna technology, medical research, aids and hiv |
| π Switzerland's proposed encryption law changes could force VPNs to leave | George Phillips | Switzerland's proposed changes to encryption laws are raising concerns for privacy-focused VPN providers like Proton VPN and NymVPN.
