Valve is still figuring out ‘how and when’ to do Steam Deck 2

Now that Valve has finally launched its entire 2026 hardware lineup - the Steam Controller, the Steam Machine, and today's Steam Frame - are we any closer to a next-gen Steam Deck handheld? Valve isn't saying so yet. The company is figuring out "how and when we can deliver something like that," Valve designer Pierre-Loup […]

Why agent-browser and Playwright Work So Well Together

We recently added agent-browser to our UI evaluation workflow. The motivation was simple. A normal E2E test is great when we already know the path: await page . getByRole ( " button " , { name : " Settings " }). click (); await expect ( page . getByRole ( " dialog " , { name : " Settings " }) ). toBeVisible (); But sometimes I want to ask a different question: Can a user find Settings and open it? ...

Meine Claude-Code-Quota ist zweimal pro Woche gestorben. Ich habe ein Forensik-Tool geschrieben, um herauszufinden, warum.

Meine Claude-Code-Quota verbrennt schnell — und die Zähler haben es nie erklärt. Sie beantworten wie viel. Nicht wo, nicht warum. Also habe ich ein Skript auf meine lokalen Session-Transkripte (~/.claude/projects/**/*.jsonl) losgelassen und angefangen zu graben. Daraus ist ein Tool geworden: quota-autopsy.

Solving the Classic SQL "Gaps and Islands" Problem: 3 Modern Approaches

If you've ever needed to find consecutive streaks in data — days a user logged in back to back, uninterrupted stretches of sensor readings, runs of matching status codes — you've run into the "gaps and islands" problem. The "islands" are the consecutive runs. The "gaps" are the breaks between them. SQL doesn't have a built-in FIND_STREAKS() function, so you build it with window functions instead. Here's the sample data we'll use throughout — a table of user login dates: user_id ...

How I Cut 45,000 Next.js Error Tokens to 118 in <0.2ms Using a Rust MCP Server

If you use Cursor, Claude Desktop, or Cline daily, you have probably watched your rate limits evaporate because of a single runtime crash. A Next.js build fails or a Python script panics, and your terminal vomits 500 lines of stack traces. The LLM eagerly ingests all 45,000 tokens of internal node_modules machinery, webpack bundles, and event loop frames. You just paid $0.15 for an AI model to read code it can't edit, your prompt cache is wiped, and y...

Node.js Realtime Event Discovery: Token Trust for Healthtech IoT Control Panels

Use realtime event discovery as an observability and trust exercise: classify what the panel can learn, bind each event to a narrow token scope, and make every state transition auditable before a browser is allowed to request a device action. In a healthtech workspace, “online” is an observation, not permission. That distinction is the decision rule. I carry the pager, so I distrust a dashboard that only says connected. At 3 a.m. I want to know what page fired, which event caused it, and whet...

How to Connect Claude to Real-Time Market Data with MCP

Meta description : Configure TickDB MCP to give Claude access to live market data with millisecond timestamps. Step-by-step setup for Claude Desktop, real JSON output, and a timestamp verification method so you know exactly when the data is from. Claude gives you a price. How old is it? Ask Claude "What's Apple trading at right now?" It answers. The number sounds plausible. But there's no timestamp on that number. You don't know if it's from today's open, last month's earni...

Best Generative Video Model for Interactive Applications in 2026: Why Helios Leads and How to Use It for Real-Time Content Creation

Helios is a 14B parameter video generation model that achieves 19.5 FPS on a single H100 GPU while reducing inference costs by approximately 100x compared to prior approaches. This breakthrough makes real-time, interactive video applications economically viable for the first time, enabling use cases like magic mirrors, accessibility tools, and real-time content creation pipelines.

AI Layoffs in 2026: Why the Companies Spending the Most on AI Are Also Hiring the Most People

Verdict: The AI layoffs dominating the news are half the story. When you look at firm-level data instead of press releases, the companies spending the most aggressively on AI actually grew their workforces by about 10% in the two years after adoption, including entry-level roles. The pattern behind both the cuts and the rehiring is the same: AI collapses the value of pure task execution and raises the value of judgment and ownership. Your job is safer than the headlines suggest, but only if you...

Context Engineering for AI Agents: Why the Build Is Easy and the Context Is Not (2026)

Verdict: In 2026, building a working AI agent is close to a solved problem. Durable state, sandboxed execution, and observability are now platform primitives, not quarter-long engineering projects. What still breaks agents in production is not the model and not the scaffolding. It is missing context: the decisions, discussions, and tribal knowledge that live outside the code and the ticket the agent was handed. The fix is a deliberate context layer, and this guide shows you how to build one. ...

Outcome-Based Pricing and AI: Why India's IT Giants Just Changed How They Charge (2026)

If you pay a consultancy, agency, or development partner by the hour, the ground just moved under your contract. In August 2026, the CEOs of Persistent Systems and Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) told Reuters, on the record, that clients are now demanding 25% to 30% lower prices for the same work, and that roughly 80% of TCS's finance, HR and business-services contracts are priced on outcomes rather than hours. AI productivity is the stated reason on both sides of the table. The billable-hour mo...

What Is Cursor Origin? The Git Host Built for AI Agents (2026)

Cursor, the AI code editor, is no longer just a place where code gets written. As of August 17, 2026 it is also a place where code gets hosted. The company launched Origin in early beta: a Git-compatible code-hosting service with repositories, pull requests, code browsing, and two-way GitHub sync, built directly into the Cursor app, with Cursor's coding agents embedded next to every repo. Origin is available on all paid Cursor plans (Pro, Teams, Enterprise) and rolling out in stages. The timin...

The Leak That Won't Die: How We Broke Python's tempfile

Production crashes always happen suddenly. This time, the alarm was raised by the core C++ SDK developers. Their scheduled nightly build failed on the CI runner with a classic diagnosis: No space left on device . We ran out of disk space. A quick post-mortem revealed that the /tmp folder was bursting with thousands of temporary directories. Their names all started the same way: ude_xml_ . It was our code. The Architecture of the Crash As we've mentioned before, our ...
