Fusion power startup Cambridge Heavy Industries is building a small, laser-powered fusion device to fuel the coming wave of fusion power plants.

A federal judge ruled that Apple can access OpenAI's interview materials involving former Apple employees, as well as private messages and testimony from key figures in the case.

It's not clear exactly for what purpose the recording device was used, but FBI director Kash Patel said the scheme was to "capture sensitive communications about the company’s super intelligence technology."

The steel industry is a big polluter, but Helix Carbon can upcycle pollution from blast furnaces to drive down emissions and improve margins.

Cerebras CEO Andrew Feldman has a message for AI leaders spreading doomsday warnings: Maybe stop talking? At TechCrunch Disrupt, he argued that the industry's focus on AI's risks is drowning out its potential benefits.

Industrial Next helps manufacturers automate complex, delicate tasks that have traditionally required human labor.

Cerebras CEO Andrew Feldman predicts a future where personal AI assistants become as commonplace as household appliances, running partly on local devices and partly in the cloud.

Max Hodak, the former president and co-founder of Neuralink, detailed on stage at TechCrunch Disrupt how his company's work with PRIMA is part of its path toward a novel brain-computer interface (BCI).

I love walking in San Francisco! To celebrate Walktober, I built an app to explore San Francisco’s many staircases. However, after working on it with my partner, I noticed a new feature: the app was assessing whether those staircases needed escalators. Zut alors! I did not build that part. So I used Entire to find the conversation behind it. Here’s the workflow, using agent sessions already captured by Entire. 1. Search for what looks unfamiliar From my terminal, I ran: ...

Windows 11 24H2 chega ao fim do suporte em 30/11/2024: o que fazer agora? Introdução A partir de 30 de novembro de 2024 o Windows 11 24H2 (build 22621.3276) deixará de receber patches de segurança. Se você ainda está usando essa versão, o seu PC ficará exposto a vulnerabilidades críticas em questão de dias. Neste artigo você encontra, de forma prática, o que acontece, como validar a sua instalação, e quais são as opções de migração mais rápidas e seguras. 1. O q...

WebScaly is a free, open-source Chrome extension that applies sharpening, light denoise and upscaling to accessible web video. Processing happens on the user's device, on websites the user explicitly approves. I maintain the project. This article explains the design decisions behind its rendering, website permissions and player integration, including the limits of the current release. Install from the Chrome Web Store · Source code Three enhancement options Spatial Deta...

This is a submission for the Hacktoberfest Open-Source AI Challenge: Week 2 (Side Hustle). Live demo: https://plotkeep-pi.vercel.app/studio Code: https://github.com/sherotree/plotkeep Prize category: Best Use of Gemma . What I built Plotkeep is a static web app that turns a pasted table into a chart without sending the table anywhere. You paste CSV, TSV, or cells copied from a spreadsheet — or a sentence if you only have the shape of the question. The app:...

Tuần này trên HN có bài về việc Anthropic thiết kế lại hệ thống source control nội bộ. Đọc xong mình thấy quen, vì team nào để monorepo phình lên vài chục GB cũng sẽ gặp đúng những vấn đề đó: git clone mất 40 phút, git status chạy 8 giây, CI thì tốn phần lớn thời gian để kéo code về. Phần lớn chúng ta không cần (và cũng không nên) tự viết VCS riêng. Git bản hiện đại đã có sẵn công cụ để xử lý repo lớn, chỉ là ít người dùng. Bài này tổng hợp những gì mình đã áp dụng cho một monorepo khoảng 18...

An agent can follow its instructions perfectly and still pay the wrong amount, because the parser misread a table in the invoice. The agent never sees the PDF, only the extraction. If that step is wrong, everything downstream is confidently wrong too. Jerry Liu, co-founder and CEO of LlamaIndex, made this point in a June 2026 episode. A parser that represents a table wrong, or hallucinates at a meaningful rate, puts a workflow below the accuracy bar you can operate with, and the downstream ag...

Ask an agent for one person's sales calls since February 1 and it can come back with calls that person wasn't on, even though the right ones were in its context. The data reaching the model causes that, and a live demo on Chain of Thought in March 2026 showed how. Michel Tricot, CEO and co-founder of Airbyte, ran the query against the Gong API directly. The API couldn't filter calls by user, so the agent paged through every call over roughly a month and a half. He said that path normally take...

A spending limit written in a prompt is not a control. It is a piece of text, sitting in the same context window as everything else the model reads, competing for the model's attention with the task, the tool output, and whatever a third party managed to get in front of it. When that limit and an instruction to spend disagree, nothing technical decides between them. The model decides. That is the whole problem. We build Veyline at Payload, so our position is stated plainly up front. Enforceme...

Introduction: Deno's Transition to Cloudflare The recent acquisition of the Deno team by Cloudflare has sent ripples through the developer community, raising critical questions about the project's future. At the heart of this concern is Cloudflare's limited one-year commitment to security updates and bug fixes for Deno. This move, while securing the team's immediate future, introduces a temporal cliff that threatens the project's long-term sustainability and development. The ...

OpenAI and Anthropic representatives told a UK parliamentary committee that voluntary pledges are insufficient and called for binding AI laws, statutory frameworks, and mandatory incident reporting. The hearing highlighted divisions among major tech firms regarding self-regulation and government oversight. The British parliament's Business, Innovation, Science and Trade Committee held a hearing, in which executives from four major artificial intelligence companies, former employees and ...

Introduction The discovery of critical vulnerabilities in SFAPE.dll , a core component of Virtualization-Based Security (VBS) enclaves in Windows Isolated User Mode (VTL1) , has exposed significant weaknesses in the security guarantees of this isolated environment. These flaws enable arbitrary code execution by allowing attackers to bypass the enclave’s isolation mechanisms. The implications are profound: unauthorized access, data exfiltration, and system-wide compromise become feasibl...

A notification metric is cheap only when it can answer who created the work, which delivery stage failed, and who owns the retry. Choose the backend after fixing that attribution model. For a customer-support notification service, I would compare four paths with the same bounded dataset: CloudWatch, Grafana Cloud's free offering, PostHog, and a small self-hosted metrics API. The winner is the path whose total operational burden fits the team and whose labels preserve responsibility without expos...

Showing off Sugabots, an internal project I built at work that we've decided to open-source. I got tired of the team just copying context between agents and Slack. So I built an internal tool for shared chats where our team and agents could work together, using our choice of models and tools. The team is now actively maintaining and building on it to add all the features we're missing. We've shared a hosted offering with a few other teams and has proven useful for them too. Its open-source (MIT)...
