The new context layer connects to existing SQL databases and builds a governed, model-agnostic foundation for AI agents running on live operational data, in wee

Built by former offensive operators, the new capability converts advisories from CISA, Mandiant

A technical look at MRTE message flow, pub/sub routing, bindings, facets, and how modular data apps work across platforms.

The competition is “absolutely welcome” by the pioneering Korean giant, but Samsung warns that the device’s “weight” is crucial.

A landmark announcement by the frontier AI lab has been overshadowed by accusations of impropriety.

Now the UK government plans to introduce new legislation that would see companies face fines and potential criminal liability, and signaled similar plans could extend to Snapchat and Instagram.

The White House has taken down its racist Tetris ripoff days after launching a website dedicated to "arcade" games, as spotted earlier by Kotaku. The Tetris clone, called "Build the Wall," involved stacking different-sized blocks to prevent a "zombie border siege." It's not clear why the White House removed the title, though the Tetris Company […]

The Tesla Cybercab is notable for what it lacks, namely a steering wheel and pedal. By design, there is no way for this vehicle to be manually controlled - or so we thought. Less than a week after the Cybercab was officially launched in Austin, Texas, some riders have discovered the Cybercab's secret manual controls […]

There's never really been a game like Grand Theft Auto VI before, one that has completely altered the lineup of games around it. Everyone, it seems, is scared of going up against Grand Theft Auto VI. Everyone, that is, except for Nintendo. The company held a 30-minute showcase this morning focused entirely on its Legend […]

Anthropic says power users are key to its business - it's prioritized them even when it means cutting off other popular applications, like OpenClaw. But some of these same customers say Anthropic misled them into believing they'd get more out of a top-tier pricing subscription than they did. In an expanded class action lawsuit filed […]

Meta is making another push to bring artificial intelligence to the masses with Muse, a personal assistant it says can put AI in the hands of virtually anyone. The product is the latest step in a multi-billion dollar strategy overhaul designed to revitalize the company's ailing position in the AI race and help it catch […]

Google Cloud expands its enterprise AI push with Accenture, betting on forward-deployed engineers to drive adoption and overcome deployment bottlenecks.

There is a $1 million bounty for the first person providing a solution to the Navier-Stokes existence and smoothness problem.

Apple's annual iPhone event will stream live on September 9 at 10 a.m. PDT, and we're expecting big news.

Meta's new personal AI agent Muse wants access to users' email, calendars, payments, health services, and more — making the company's biggest consumer AI bet yet a major test of whether people still trust Meta with their data.

Built for the AI era: a production-ready TypeScript modular monolith with guardrails for robot coworkers. Every new project starts the same way. You need auth, multi-tenancy, file uploads, notifications, emails, i18n, a web app, a mobile app, tests, observability… and three weeks later you're still wiring boilerplate instead of building the thing that actually matters. So I built the starter I always wished existed: a production-grade modular monolith in TypeScript — one repo, one d...

What a personal agent stack is actually for. A relative of mine was sent a book about one of our ancestors. A genealogy, hundreds of pages, compiled by someone who had clearly spent years on it. The kind of thing a family is lucky to have and almost guaranteed never to read. It needed to be gone through, cross-referenced, and connected to what we already knew about the family line. My relative did not have time for that. Nobody in the family did. It sat there the way these things sit, valuab...

Google has announced Gemini 3.5 Transcribe , a speech-to-text model that extends beyond dictation in the Gemini app for macOS. The model can use voice commands and screen context to summarize local files, reuse text across apps, and generate images at the cursor. For businesses, the significance is not simply faster transcription. Google is positioning voice as an input layer for work that normally requires moving between documents, applications, and AI tools. The company announced the mod...

[NOTE: This is a follow-up to this post where I began to develop a hermeneutic critique of the Claude Code Workflow tool from the perspective of a user who just wants the feature to work.] "Loop-until-dry": A Recipe for Disaster The Claude Workflow tool definition has substantially migrated out of the definition, and into a built-in Claude Code Skill, which is not publicly available for users to review. This makes it very difficult to implement tooling that attempts to levera...

In the first week of September three arXiv papers landed on the same nerve: HarnessDev (2609.01437) asked whether LLMs can create and evolve their own agent harness. SafeEvolve (2609.02786) had agents co-evolve their own safety policy from experience. PatchBench (2609.04075) measured how well agents patch real security vulnerabilities — and found the usual proof-of-concept check inflates solve rates by 1.83×. Read together, they say one thing: agents are starting to modify...

See the trees. See the forest. In the Age of LLMs, Do Notes and Blogs Still Matter? In the age of LLMs—large language models, AI systems that can generate natural language and other text through conversation—knowledge has become remarkably easy to obtain. Almost anyone using an LLM can access nearly all the knowledge that human beings can express through language. At the same time, some of the needs once served by internet search engines and blogs are being absorbed by the LLM c...

Have you ever shipped a pytest suite that looked literate on your laptop and then went illiterate on the server? I spent two days chasing a collector crash that never reproduced on my Mac. I had pinned the same CPython minor and the same requirements lock, which made the gap feel insulting. The tests were not flaky in the usual sense, and the assertion logic itself was boringly deterministic. The process died while printing a failure I had decorated with a checkmark. POSIX C locale still owns a ...

OpenAI has reportedly used a large coordinated group of AI agents to pursue one of mathematics' most difficult problems: the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations. The reported effort is notable not only for its possible mathematical outcome, but also for its claimed use of roughly 10,000 concurrent agents over about 88 hours. Yet the underlying result has not been publicly established through a peer-reviewed paper, preprint, or accessible first-party OpenAI announcement, so it should be t...

A few weeks ago, I ran into a frustrating problem. Every time I needed a fast standalone Key-Value cache for my pet projects or microservices, I had to deploy a full Redis instance. Setting up Redis, managing its memory overhead, and dealing with external configurations felt too bloated for small-to-medium tasks. I just wanted a standalone, native, and extremely lightweight client-server KV database built entirely in modern C#. So, I decided to build it myself. That’s how SabaMemDB w...

Originally published at webofmike.com on 2026-09-02. The demo repo and every command in it were run before publishing. I built a demo where an AI agent calls a model and nothing in the path holds a certificate file. Not the agent, not the gateway, not the model upstream. Every identity is issued at runtime by SPIRE, rotates on its own, and is verified on the TLS handshake rather than read out of a header. The gateway's authorization policy is written against a SPIFFE ID. It all runs on do...

Originally published at webofmike.com on 2026-09-05. The demo repo and every command in it were run before publishing. The Model Context Protocol roadmap published on August 22 names agent identity and enterprise-ready security as a priority workstream, with four specific pieces: DPoP, Workload Identity Federation, the ID-JAG grant behind Enterprise-Managed Authorization, and standard token exchange. I went through the spec repos to see how much of that you can actually build against tod...

Originally published at webofmike.com on 2026-09-08. The demo repo and every command in it were run before publishing. kagent v0.10.0 went GA on September 4 . Buried in a long release list is a pair of environment variables that decide whether an agent's credential works at one backend or all of them: KAGENT_STS_RESOURCE and KAGENT_STS_AUDIENCE . Both default to empty. I built a three-container harness that shows exactly what changes when you set them: themsquared/kagent-sts-audien...
