Hong Kong leader John Lee Ka-chiu has promised to allow more children from low-income families to enjoy after-school care on campus by further expanding a government scheme following positive feedback from participants.
Social workers and educators welcomed the initiative on Saturday, proposing the government widen the scheme’s coverage to include more pupils and encourage more schools to join through subsidies.
The scheme, launched as part of the government’s targeted measures to tackle poverty, has helped promote family harmony, with children also reporting improvements in both academic performance and social life, according to Lee, who recently visited a school before the Easter break.
“In supporting the grass roots, my administration has consistently launched various targeted poverty alleviation projects … to channel resources to those most in need,” Lee said in a Facebook post on Saturday.
“The School-based After-School Care Service Scheme is one such example … I will work with my governance team to explore further expanding the programme to fully utilise resources and benefit more families.”
He did not give further details or a time frame.

7 CVEs in 48 Hours: How PraisonAI Got Completely Owned — And What Every Agent Framework Should Learn
PraisonAI is a popular multi-agent Python framework supporting 100+ LLMs. On April 3, 2026, seven CVEs dropped simultaneously. Together they enable complete system compromise from zero authentication to arbitrary code execution. I spent the day analyzing each vulnerability. Here is what I found, why it matters, and the patterns every agent framework developer should audit for immediately. The Sandbox Bypass (CVE-2026-34938, CVSS 10.0) This is the most technically interesting attack I have seen this year. PraisonAI's execute_code() function runs a sandbox with three protection layers. The innermost wrapper, _safe_getattr , calls startswith() on incoming arguments to check for dangerous imports like os , subprocess , and sys . The attack: create a Python class that inherits from str and over
I Built a Zero-Login Postman Alternative in 5 Weeks. My Cofounder Is an AI and I Work Long Shifts.
I started this because I wanted to know if the hype was real. Not the AI hype specifically. The whole thing — the idea that someone without a CS degree, without a team, without anyone around them who even knows what Claude.ai is, could build something real on weekends. I work long demanding shifts at a job that has nothing to do with software. My coworkers don't know what an API is. I barely knew what one was when I started. Five weeks later I have a live product with Stripe payments, a Pro tier, and an AI that generates production-ready API requests from plain English. I'm still not entirely sure what I'd use it for in my day job. But I know the journey was worth it. If you can't learn, you're done. Why This Exists One night I needed to test an API endpoint. I opened Postman. It asked me
