Most founders think their trust problem is that people don't believe them.

As AI transforms how we work, learn, and recruit, traditional CVs are becoming less powerful as proof of technical ability.

Discover how React 19.2 Activity changes component lifecycles, Effects, state, and cleanup—and how to avoid hidden bugs in production.

Dr. Sunday Ubur's research explores emotion-aware AI captions that preserve tone, urgency, and context for deaf and hard-of-hearing users.

Discover why prompt engineering is ending and how Inference-Time Scaling, GraphRAG, and deterministic agent orchestration are shaping the future of enterprise.

A combination of rapid advances, recursive self-improvement, and agentic swarms are genuinely “spooking people” inside big labs.

Samsung is resting on its laurels with the midrange S26 FE, with an unwelcome price bump and only a new processor to show for it.

The new joint operation uses laser-based technology capable of detecting, tracking, and disabling commercial drones linked to human and drug trafficking.

Crackpot theories were once the stuff of shortwave radio, but September 11 unleashed the Age of Alex Jones.

The US government has been sharing more information about UFOs. That's fueling excitement over the possibility of the president announcing that humans are not alone.

The agricultural machine manufacturer has a subscription service that lets owners repair their own equipment. Why is barely anybody using it?

Braden Sinclair has turned his love affair with the restaurant chain into an interactive trove of dietary data.

Apple was far from the first company to announce a passport-shaped folding phone this year, but that doesn't mean it wasn't copied. As my colleague Dom Preston already explained, it's almost impossible to keep product development secret when Apple and its competitors all share the same global suppliers. Apple's new CEO John Ternus and head […]

Insta360's first compact steadycam, the Luna Ultra, made a splash this year by beating DJI to launch with two lenses. Now it's followed the Ultra with a slightly stripped back Pro model, which drops to one lens but has a unique advantage: It can shoot vertical video in 4K. Plus, unlike DJI's Osmo Pocket 4, […]

Hey everyone, I'm ACatNight. I've posted a few things here about learning, side projects, and programming, but I realized I never really introduced myself. So yeah, I guess I'll do that now. I'm a software engineering student from China. I started programming with Minecraft server development , and later I started making my own plugins and working on different projects. One of my main open-source projects is WorldScript , a Minecraft RPG region and event framework. During my ...

There is a small art project in our house that encodes a sentence as nothing but its word lengths. Each word becomes a run of some symbol, repeated once per letter; the symbol itself is chosen at random and carries nothing. "The night is long" becomes four clusters of length 3, 5, 2, That is the entire channel. A reader — human or model — gets the lengths and nothing else. The project's README makes a claim I liked: that LLM readers never recover the intended meaning , that they ge...

✓ Human-authored analysis; AI used for formatting and proofreading. In 2018, Spencer Gietzen at Rhino Security Labs published a catalogue of 24 ways to escalate from low-privilege IAM identities to full administrative access. Technique #1 was the simplest one in the entire catalogue: aws iam attach-user-policy \ --user-name $YOUR_OWN_USERNAME \ --policy-arn arn:aws:iam::aws:policy/AdministratorAccess Three command-line arguments. No second permission, exploit...

⚡ I Built the SQLite of Vector Search in ~120KB of Pure C & SIMD If you're building LLM agents, local RAG systems, or CLI tools in Python today, you've likely faced the vector database dependency nightmare . To store a few thousand embeddings from a conversation history or document chunks, standard tutorials tell you to pip install chromadb or install FAISS. Here is what happens under the hood: Over 35 transitive dependencies are downloaded into your virtual environment ...

Every founder knows the feeling: you share a new startup idea with friends, and they all smile and say, "That sounds awesome!" Six months and thousands of dollars later, you discover nobody actually wants it. Standard LLMs suffer from the exact same problem: extreme sycophancy . If you ask ChatGPT "Is my startup idea good?" , it will write a 10-paragraph essay explaining why your dog-walking drone startup has trillion-dollar potential. To fix this, I spent the last few months build...

Let's say you're running a podcast hosting platform, or a social network. A user uploads a 40-minute interview in uncompressed format (WAV). Before anyone can hear it, your app needs four things that did not exist a second ago: a 30-second preview for the feed, waveform data so the player can draw something, transcoded variants in Opus, MP3, etc., and the whole thing loudness-normalised, because half of what people upload is recorded too quiet (or too loud). None of that i...

You've probably read it by now: Shopify is moving all of its mobile apps back to Swift and Kotlin, six years after going all-in on React Native. In their own words , "building the same feature in Swift and Kotlin no longer carries the cost it used to," because coding agents now do enough of the work in between. We never left, and I want to be precise about why. We bet on native in 2011 for one reason: iOS and Android would outlive every layer stacked on top of them. Every layer since has been t...

1. Find the Second Highest Salary SELECT MAX ( e1 . salary ) FROM employee e1 WHERE e1 . salary < ( SELECT MAX ( e2 . salary ) FROM employee e2 ); 2. Find the Nth Highest Salary Option 1: Using LIMIT and OFFSET SELECT DISTINCT e . salary FROM employee e ORDER BY e . salary DESC LIMIT 1 OFFSET n - 1 ; -- Replace 'n-1' with the calculated offset number Opti...

Most "audit logs" are append-only by convention, not by enforcement. The application inserts a row and politely promises never to UPDATE or DELETE it. That promise holds right up until the moment someone does one of these: A bug in the app calls repo.delete(id) on the wrong entity. An operator connects with psql and runs a cleanup script against the production table. A compromised dependency exfiltrates the credentials and rewrites history to cover its tracks. If a third pa...

Originally published on sergei-parfenov.com . A bug fix can make every new test pass and still introduce a regression. Here is a deliberately constructed Python example, checked locally without an LLM. An order filter has three requirements: Omit the filter, or pass None : return all orders. Pass an empty list: return no orders. Pass a list of statuses: return only matching orders. The reported bug is that omitting the filter returns nothing. This proposed fix looks reason...

I run AI Change Watch , a small independent project that crawls what 15 AI vendors publish about their own models — deprecation tables, lifecycle pages, pricing and SDK releases — and records every time one of them changes. Every so often I check whether the crawler is still alive by counting recent runs. The query is the obvious one: SELECT COUNT ( * ) FROM crawl_runs WHERE started_at > datetime ( 'now' , '-1 hour' ); It returned 1,252 . T...

A good human in the loop for AI hiring is more than a recruiter clicking "confirm" on the model's top-ranked list. It is a structure that grades each recruiting action by how reversible it is, how far the harm spreads, and how high the stakes are, then keeps an accountable human owning every advance-or-reject decision. The core question is blunt. Can a human realistically catch this mistake in time, and should they own it? For parsing a resume the recruiter still reads, automating it is fine. ...
