Xbox’s clever disc-to-digital feature was 15 years in the making

When Xbox announced a new feature last month that lets you digitize existing physical game collections, I immediately thought of the Xbox One. Disc-to-digital seems like a clever new feature for Xbox, perfectly timed as a response to Sony killing PlayStation discs. But the reality is that it has been 15 years in the making […]

Claude Code relaunches Projects to manage multiple AI agents in the cloud

The revamped projects feature in Claude Code allows users to run multiple agents under the same roof, with a shared memory, goals, and library of files and artifacts. Similar to Grok Bot and other tools that manage groups of AI agents, each project has "threads" running different tasks in parallel, with a "coordinator" directing everything: […]

The AI Superintelligence Slowdown

Remember when tech leaders would tell their employees to “move fast and break things”? It seemed that would be the way of AI too. But after a summer where rogue AI agents became reality, and researchers warned that AI could kill us all, a number of leading US AI companies are publicly suggesting it’s time […]

Apple will let EU apps use less-alarming tracking-consent screens

Apple is changing its App Tracking Transparency prompts in parts of Europe after competition regulators said the system favored Apple over third-party apps, giving developers more flexibility over how they ask users for tracking consent.

Jev + Pi: a probability gate for my coding agent's shell commands

TypeSafe released Jev on 2026-09-15. It is a decision-only model: you give it yes/no propositions and it returns a probability instead of text. I put it in front of Pi's bash , write and edit calls, and then measured 18 commands to decide where the thresholds should sit. TL;DR What it is: An auto-mode extension for the Pi coding agent CLI that uses rules for known patterns and sends unvouched commands to Jev, TypeSafe's decision-only model (announced 2026-09-15) that re...

Knowledge Poisoning in RAG: Attacking AI Through Its Knowledge Base

Hello, I'm Rijul, and I'm building LiveReview — a blast-radius aware AI code review built for your business-critical systems. Star us to help devs discover the project, give it a try, and share your feedback to help improve the product. If you are familiar with RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation), you know that it allows an LLM to answer questions using information from your documents. If you are new to RAG, you can check out this article first . At a high level, RAG embe...

Does RAG Need Better Retrieval — or Better Relationships?

I started this experiment for a slightly different reason. I was playing with a system that could reconstruct context across documents. Not summarize documents. Not retrieve the most similar chunks. Reconstruct context. For example, suppose I have two documents: In 2022, the team chose PostgreSQL. And somewhere else: After the migration problems, the team moved to DynamoDB in 2024. Neither document contains the answer to: Why did the database decision change?...

Hardening Jenkins After the September 2026 Plugin Advisory: A Practical Guide

Hardening Jenkins After the September 2026 Plugin Advisory: A Practical Guide The Jenkins advisory of September 16, 2026 covers 20 plugin vulnerabilities, seven of which break the Script Security sandbox and yield code execution on the controller. The patches are available. What follows is the operational work around them: how to apply the fixes, how to tell whether you were affected, and which configuration changes reduce the impact of the next advisory. Step one: identify what ...

Large Language Model Its a model what is a model ? its a equation. Then what is equation ? y = mx + c or y = m1x2 + m2x3 + m3x2 Models are nothing but WEIGHTS. Take an example Eg: gpt-oss-120b , for this model they would have used data with TRANSFORMER ARCHITECTURE and we are getting some output that is called MODEL. m --> weights ( we can adjust the m and get many desierd outputs ) Model is floating point storage. சில பேரு சொல்லுவாங்க இது வந்து 120B Paramter mod...

How to Shrink Key Revocation Latency: Webhook Intake with a Scheduled Polling Backstop

Use the push channel for speed and a scheduled poll for proof. Registered webhooks carry a revocation from the issuer to your gateway in a couple of seconds; scheduled polling is what tells you, an hour later, whether that revocation actually landed. On a support desk product where every tenant holds its own scoped key, the axis that decides the architecture is not median latency — it's whether you can reconstruct, for one key on one afternoon, when access stopped and how you learned about it. ...

Algorithmic Trading: Debug Your Backtest Before Upgrading Your Model

A company releases earnings at 4:05 p.m. Your trading backtest buys its stock at 4:00 p.m., using those earnings to make the decision. The tests pass. The chart looks great. Your model can apparently predict the future. Somewhere in the pipeline, someone joined two datasets on a date column. That five-minute mistake captures what interests me about algorithmic trading as a developer. Before trusting a model, you have to investigate the system that makes its results possible. In my ea...

Dropbox App for Gemini Brings File Search, Sharing and Automation Into Gemini Workflows

Dropbox has become an official connected app for Google Gemini, giving eligible users a way to locate, summarize, share and manage Dropbox files without leaving Gemini Chat . The integration also extends to Gemini Spark, Google’s workflow environment for tasks that can span multiple connected apps. For teams already storing working documents in Dropbox, the development brings file retrieval and common file actions closer to the AI conversations and workflows where work is increasingly being pla...
