Cupertino brings the tech backlash to the CBS procedural - an initially awkward combination, but with rewarding results. The show starts off just slightly unsure, but quickly figures out what to do with these strange times, creating fictionalized dupes of the Zizians, Polymarket, Jeff Bezos' looksmaxxing obsession, OpenAI stealing Scarlett Johansson's voice, and the fight […]

Vesta, an AI-native software startup that helps lenders originate mortgages, announced a $30 million round led by Conversion Capital.

After the release of HTTP/0.9 the Web didn't stay in the same state for too long, the team behind the HTTP initiative was already looking for more; this can be evidenced in a mailing list for discussing the Web , when Jean-François Groff, member of the team behind HTTP said: Your impression may come from the fact that in the current implementation, as HTTP can only return HTML documents, the distinction between them is not clear. The new phase of HTTP that we are currently designing will...

Most database load tests I have seen run one or two queries in a loop. That tells you how fast those queries are when nothing else is happening. It does not tell you what your database does on a normal Tuesday, when one lookup is called 120,000 times an hour, a customer listing 45,000 times and a report 400 times, all competing for the same buffer cache, the same connections and the same locks. The good news: your database already knows that profile. This post shows how to export it and turn ...

When you talk to ChatGPT or Claude, should it remember your earlier conversations? One camp says yes: without memory the AI meets you from scratch every time. The other says no: modern models can read hundreds of pages at once, so just give them the whole chat history. I build an open-source memory layer for AI assistants ( Aura Memory ), so I had a reason to want the first camp to win. Instead of arguing, I spent a week testing it. I used my own real chats with AI coding assistants and pu...

My RAG Eval Passed. The Citations Were Still Wrong Consider this small regression test: Question: What is the current refund period? Retrieved: POLICY-2025: Customers may request refunds within 30 days. POLICY-2026: Customers may request refunds within 14 days. Generated answer: Customers may request refunds within 14 days. [POLICY-2025] The answer contains the current policy. The expected document was retrieved. A citation was present. Several common RAG checks ...

This is a submission for the Hacktoberfest Open-Source AI Challenge Week 1: Touch Grass What I Built Most modern AI applications are designed to maximize screen time, keeping your eyes glued to glass in endless conversation loops. TrailWhisper is designed to turn itself off. TrailWhisper is a 100% offline edge nature companion and bioacoustic field guide powered by open-source AI. Built for hikers, trail runners, foragers, birders, and anyone experiencing screen fatigue...

TL;DR Reverted a costly caching strategy in the ELI business project and replaced it with a growth‑oriented cache that increased reads from 0 to >2 000. Built an ephemeris API ( geo.py , birthtime.py ) to expose star data for Satya’s astrology front‑end. Fixed UI overflow in Living Books and tuned ElevenLabs voice tiers for a more natural narration. Started a new open‑source cloud repo, HyperCloud, with a Flask login and a React dashboard prototype. Day closed with a clear list...

Why I built this As a Korean engineer working in Japan, I've long wanted to publish technical articles in three languages: Japanese on Zenn, English on dev.to, and Korean on velog. Manually copy-pasting every article into three platforms was never going to happen, so I built a pipeline with a single GitHub repository as the hub — push once, and the article goes out to all three platforms automatically. I expected Zenn to be the easy part and got tripped up anyway, and velog turned out to ...

Perguntei ao meu agente quem venceu o GP de São Paulo de 2024. A resposta veio redonda: Max Verstappen venceu o GP de São Paulo de 2024. Largou da 17ª posição no grid, completou as 69 voltas da prova e somou 26 pontos pela vitória com a volta mais rápida pela Red Bull. Tudo certo. Verstappen fez mesmo a volta mais rápida em Interlagos. O eval reprovou a resposta mesmo assim, com nota 0,67, e tinha razão: a tool que o agente chamou devolveu points: 26 , mas não disse nada sobre volta...

My son is 9. He is reading Ben Orlin's Math Games with Bad Drawings, and he picks the next game. I build that one with a model in the editor. The model is fast at a first version. It is careless about where the truth lives, and it will write that truth down twice. So the work I keep is short. I write the decision in a file, I choose which machine owns the rules, and I play the position the first check gets wrong. By 1 October, four games were playable in the browser. The notes are dated, s...

When building an autonomous agent to conduct technical engineering interviews, the margin for error is zero. If an AI customer service bot hallucinates a return policy, it is an inconvenience. If an AI interviewer hallucinates a candidate's technical score or gets tricked by prompt injection into discussing philosophical hypotheticals instead of system design, it destroys the integrity of the hiring pipeline. Standard conversational AI wrappers—where a massive system prompt is fed into a...

A semantic skill selector can make an agent prompt smaller. It can also make an agent less capable if it quietly removes the only map to available skills. That is the boundary APX needs to protect. APC is the portable context layer. A project can keep reusable instructions in .apc/skills/ , review them in Git, and share them with compatible tools. APX is the local runtime layer. It decides what becomes active during one turn: a small catalog hint, a loaded skill body, or an optional seman...

Biometric authentication has become a standard part of modern mobile applications. Face ID, Touch ID, fingerprint authentication, and device credentials give users a convenient way to verify their identity before accessing sensitive functionality. For React Native applications, implementing these flows still requires communication with native iOS and Android authentication APIs. That was the motivation behind building react-native-nitro-biometrics , an open-source biometric authentic...

Starlink is still awaiting security clearance before it can seek spectrum and begin commercial services in India.

I have been learning Agentic AI for a while now. Concepts made sense, the demos worked, and I felt ready to build something for myself. So I picked a project I actually needed: an agent that applies to jobs for me. Stack: Node.js, Playwright, OpenAI. I thought the LLM part would be the challenge. It was not. The browser part broke me. What went wrong Bot detection. Playwright got flagged almost immediately. Cloudflare CAPTCHA. Once I got past the first wall, this ...

Pick the Agent Seat by the Commit You Would Sign I do not start with the price tag when I place an agent on a machine today. I start with a harder question: would I sign the commit this run is about to create? If the answer is no, a free shared seat can still be a fair draft bench. If the answer is yes, I want a host whose git identity, license files, and secret boundary I can name before the push. That split sounds fussy until a generated patch lands in a public repository with the wrong...

Everyone wants to work remotely. Pyjama bottoms, a hot chai, and a Zoom call where only the shirt is professional. The dream is real, but the internet has roughly 4,000 websites claiming to give it to you, and about 40 of them will happily eat your weekend. So I went through 80 of them and sorted them by two simple questions. Is it worth your time? And how likely is it that somebody actually hires you? A small honest note before we start. These ratings are my own judgement from how each pl...

If I don't want AI-generated answers on top of my search results, which search engine should I use? I couldn't find a straight answer. Most articles on this repeat what each company says about itself, so I tested it: same queries, same browser, same day, a screenshot of every result. Below is the setup, the results, and the engines I couldn't test. The setup Date: October 6, 2026, one sitting of about 40 minutes. Browser: Chrome 154 (154.0.8037.98) on a Mac, desktop ...
