The codirector of “You Can See Everything” talks exclusively to WIRED about truth, lies, and Theranos.

There's a fast-growing category of two-wheeled electric vehicles splitting the difference between high-end scooters and entry-level motorcycles, fresh bikes with avant-garde style but approachable performance. I'm talking about offerings like the Infinite Machine P1 and BMW CE 02, similar concepts but with wildly different attitudes. Among this class, the Maeving RM2 stands out. It has […]

A hands-on look at Black Forest Labs' newest open image model — where it wins, where it loses, and which of the seven workflows you should actually start with. The short version Black Forest Labs released FLUX 3 Image Klein on October 15, 2026, and it is genuinely open weights under the FLUX Kommunity License. That means free commercial use for individuals and companies under $5M annual revenue — not an API key, not a waitlist. On paper it reads like a spec sheet: ...

Studies Multiverse is a side project: a free guide to studying abroad where every figure comes from an official source and carries the date it was checked. It runs on Cloudflare Workers and D1, with about 31,000 institutions from national registers and 62 country guides. The first dataset I'm publishing on its own is the one students ask about most: how much money a student visa asks you to prove you have. 36 of the 62 countries publish a fixed yearly amount; for the other 26 the g...

WordPress powers everything from personal blogs to complex publishing platforms, online stores, and enterprise websites. Its flexibility is one of its greatest strengths, but building a WordPress website that remains fast, reliable, and maintainable as it grows requires more than installing a theme and a collection of plugins. Modern WordPress development involves thoughtful architecture, clean code, efficient data management, performance optimization, and reliable integrations. A website ...

What Secure Enterprise RAG Requires to Enforce User-Level Access Control Most RAG security failures do not start with the model. They start one step earlier, where retrieval pulls data it never should have seen. If your secure RAG pipeline cannot prove that access checks happen before retrieval results are assembled, it is not enterprise RAG in any meaningful sense. The minimum control set is straightforward: propagate user and tenant identity into retrieval, index chunks with metadata li...

Running an automated store isn't just about having a website. It’s about removing friction. If you sell digital packs, code snippets, or APIs, your customer should receive the download link instantly—without asking a human to email it to them. You don't need a Stripe account, a Shopify theme, or a backend server with Docker containers. You can build a functioning automated shop using a free tier cloud server (like Render or Railway) and a Telegram bot. Here is the practical workflow to bui...

The World Cup is the biggest stage in sport, and the stories attached to it never run out. These ten World Cup history trivia questions cover finals, legends and heartbreaks from 1930 to 2022, each answered with a note and checked against a named source. Use them on a match day, or as a sports round in a trivia quiz online with friends. The questions Which country won the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar? Which country has won the most men's World Cups? Which Brazilian legend w...

We run an AI assistant over a construction company's SharePoint: 865 sites, about 400,000 documents. For a year it answered from PDF and Word only. This month we added Excel and PowerPoint. The extraction took an afternoon. The citation format took the real thinking, and that is what this post is about. The problem with "see Budget_2026.xlsx" An answer from a document assistant is only worth something if the reader can check it. For PDF that is easy: cite the page, the reader ope...

The first time someone asked me for "just a voice notes button," I almost reached for a separate speech SDK, with its own HttpClient, its own retry policy and its own way of faking things in tests. Then I noticed that Microsoft.Extensions.AI 10.10 already has a speech-to-text abstraction that works like the IChatClient I was already using. That made the plumbing easy. What actually took my time was a short list of design questions that the API doesn't answer for you. Here are the six I'd wa...

The swipe that only worked after the list appeared GwinG is a language-exchange messenger with four main tabs: More, Search, Friends and Profile. On a phone, a horizontal swipe on a page body moves to the neighbouring tab, just like tapping the bottom navigation bar. It is a small convenience, but it is the kind of gesture people use without thinking. A reader reported that it did not always work. Opening the Search tab on a slow connection and swiping left did nothing. As soon as the use...

The spinner-on-every-tab problem A bottom navigation bar looks like a solved problem. Four destinations, a selected index, a page for each one. The naive implementation is a pushReplacementNamed on every tap: each destination is its own route, and switching tabs swaps the route. That works until the app has state worth keeping. In GwinG, each main tab owns real, expensive state: Search runs a debounced user query, holds a map preview and polls presence for the visible results. Fr...

DeepSeek V4.1 Flash 1017 benchmark: same task, two builds, 0.24 and 0.66 Key takeaways DeepSeek V4.1 Flash 1017, a day old on OpenRouter, scored 0.6957 on our Gauntlet 7.2 against 0.591 for the September release, and a Forge 2.0 median of 0.4520 against 0.3342. The Forge pairs sit in different comparison groups on our board because our setup changed between the runs, so part of that gap may be ours. Its two Forge 2.0 builds, same task and same seeds, scored 0.2422 and 0.6618...

Here's the oversell bug that bothers me most. A customer support ticket says two people were promised the last unit of the same product. You open the database and look at the stock row: OnHand = 1 , Reserved = 1 , Available = 0 . Perfectly consistent. No negative number, no constraint violation, no exception in the logs. Everything looks right, and you still sold one unit twice. In this post I'll focus on that one part of the problem: why the stock row looks healthy after an oversell, whic...

Hey, sometimes it's easier to just move around some buttons in an editor instead of waiting a minute for the AI result. E.g. take a screenshot of your UI, cut out a button, move it around to see what it looks like. Your AI can send HTML into the editor, or screenshots. Then you can edit it, move things around, and your AI takes it from there. I've made it free and open source. You can build on top of it or improve it.
