Reading an IMS voice call out of a GTP-only 5G capture

An srsRAN bug report describes a capture taken on a 5G base station's F1-U interface that decodes as nothing but GTP. The SIP signaling and the RTP voice are simply not there — Wireshark shows GTP tunnels and stops. They are there. F1-U carries PDCP PDUs inside GTP-U tunnels, and in this lab build, PDCP runs the NEA0 null cipher with no SDAP header, so the inner IP packet starts at a fixed 3-byte offset in every T-PDU. Delete those three bytes, re-frame the result as LINKTYPE_RAW, and 2,960 inne

The Monday unlock checklist: fail-closed before your agents fan out

Monday is when agent fleets wake up hungry. New model defaults. New tool schemas. A coordinator that “helpfully” spawns three friends. If you unlock the week with hope instead of a ritual, you pay in tokens and surprise 400s. Here is a fail-closed Monday unlock I use as an editor of operator briefs — schemas first, permission second, spend third. Steal it. Fail-closed is simple: missing, unknown, or unvalidated ⇒ stop. Not “best-effort.” Not “the model will figure it out.” If a field is absent,

Stop Grinding the Same 100 Problems: Prep for the OA You’ll Actually Get in 2026

Takeaway up front: If your target list is company-specific, a frozen “top 100” grind is often the wrong loop. Cohort freshness — what this company is sending in this hiring wave — usually beats another pass through the same classic set. Hey — quick intro so you know what you’re following. This account is for SWE new grads, interns, and job seekers who are tired of treating interview prep like an infinite LeetCode treadmill. The plan here is simple: short notes on company-scoped OA patterns for t

Stop Thinking in Rows: GListModel and the Modern List Mindset

This is the third entry in A Field Guide to GTK Widgets — a series about which widget to reach for, when, and what bites you when you do. We're jumping straight to lists, ahead of layout and navigation, because it's the material the reference documents worst. Each post stands on its own, and the complete, runnable code for this one lives in the companion repo. Say you're showing a handful of tasks. The obvious way to do it doesn't require reading any documentation at all: let list_box = gtk::Lis

Is Big Tech’s AI slowdown a safety pact or a cartel?

When OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei, Google DeepMind cofounder Demis Hassabis, and SpaceX head Elon Musk loosely agreed over the weekend to slow down AI development, skeptics spotted an ulterior motive immediately. The AI titans had declared that their aim was to "pace the frontier," signing on at least partially to a proposal for embedding third-party auditors, regulating domestic labs, and reaching a global slowdown agreement. Their critics, however, argued they simply wante
