Microsoft is changing how it reports its finances to investors by splitting its businesses into two segments and disclosing quarterly revenue for its Azure cloud business for the first time. The changes are meant to reflect the ongoing impact of AI on Microsoft and how the company now operates. The software giant has previously reported […]

Anker's new robot lawnmower might take over for your weed whacker, too. Announced at IFA 2026, the Eufy Robot Lawn Mower S2 Max comes with an extendable trimming arm to clean up the grass around your driveway and flowerbeds. The dual-blade mower offers vSLAM navigation that uses built-in cameras to build a 3D map of […]

Three weeks after launching devpub, I got a notification I wasn't expecting: a pull request from someone I'd never talked to. Harish / @harishteens had forked the repo, read the issues, picked one that I'd been putting off for weeks, and built a complete solution. Tests included. Design decisions documented. Edge cases handled. The feature? devpub upload . The one command that should have existed from day one but couldn't, because the Forem API literally doesn't support it. pi...

A real-time camera filter has about 33 milliseconds per frame at 30 FPS. When a filter that looked fine in a demo stutters on a real handset, the loss is almost always in one of five places: format conversion, frame backpressure, where inference actually executes, synchronous readback, or sustained thermal load. Here is how I find which one. TL;DR The budget is arithmetic you can do in your head: 1000 / 30 = 33.3 ms per frame, and 1000 / 60 = 16.7 ms. Converting a camera fram...

Somewhere along the way, "we need to run some containers" quietly became "so we need Kubernetes," and the second half stopped getting questioned. You stand up a cluster, or pay for a managed one, and now you own a distributed control plane: etcd, an API server, a scheduler, a controller manager, plus a kubelet and kube-proxy on every node, and that's before the CNI plugin, the ingress controller, and the operators. For a fleet at Spotify scale, that machine earns its keep. For a team running twe...

1. Building MyNotes Building a useful web application does not always require a frontend framework, a backend server, or a database. For this project, I wanted to explore how far I could go using the browser itself as the application platform. The result is MyNotes , a lightweight notes application built with HTML, CSS, and vanilla JavaScript. MyNotes runs entirely on the client side. Notes are stored locally using localStorage , the application can work offline through a Service Wor...

Flutter's Visual Magic: Unraveling the Skia and Impeller Rendering Engines Hey there, fellow code wranglers and mobile-app enthusiasts! Ever wondered how Flutter manages to whip up those buttery-smooth animations and pixel-perfect UIs across Android, iOS, web, and desktop? It's not magic, though it sure feels like it sometimes! The secret sauce lies within Flutter's powerful rendering engine, a sophisticated piece of software that takes your UI code and paints it onto your screen. For the...

Why Your React useEffect Cleanup Function Isn't Running (The Dependency Array Gotcha) You add a cleanup function to your useEffect . You expect it to run when the component unmounts, or when a dependency changes before the effect re-runs. You test it. Nothing happens. No console log, no unsubscribe, no cleared interval — just silence, and a bug report from a user seeing duplicate event listeners or a memory leak that grows worse the longer they use your app. If you've hit this, you're no...

A mind discovers its body by moving it, failing, and trying again. An AI agent controlling physical devices can do neither half of that — which is why the device has to introduce itself, and why nobody quite agrees on what that introduction should contain. You did not learn what your hand does by reading a specification. You spent about a year dropping things. Somewhere in that year you worked out that the hand grips, that grip has degrees, and that a glass held too loosely falls ...

Query Crossref for "Attention Is All You Need," the 2017 Vaswani et al. paper that introduced the Transformer and has been cited more than 140,000 times, and five separate records come back. Same title. Same eight authors. Byte for byte identical. All five list the publication year as 2025 . All five carry a DOI under the prefix 10.65215 , registered not to a computer science venue but to an entity calling itself the Shenzhen Medical Academy of Research and Translation, via a Chinese prepri...

What Happens When AI Doesn't Just Work for a Company — But Runs It? At 3:17 AM, a customer signs a contract. $50,000. The founder is asleep. No employee approved it. No lawyer reviewed it. No manager clicked “Confirm.” An AI agent negotiated the deal, generated the contract, sent it to the customer — and signed it. At 8:42 AM, the founder wakes up. The company has a new customer. And a problem. The customer says: “Your representative promised us something...

La web ya no es un bien común: está vallada, endeudada y cerrada a quien no pague el peaje del hardware o la suscripción. Este artículo conecta tres bucles que se refuerzan mutuamente —búsqueda centralizada, aristocracia del hardware, burbuja financiera de 7 billones $— y explica por qué el código abierto soberano es la única infraestructura que no necesitará rescate público cuando el castillo de naipes caiga. 1. La web se cierra sobre sí misma: búsqueda, SEO y cámaras de eco ...

The Setup I was working on a system with two separate dashboards: one used internally by a review team, and one used by external users. They're built and maintained somewhat separately, but they share data. A flow I worked on recently tied them together: when the review team needs someone to resubmit something, they leave a comment explaining why. That comment is supposed to travel all the way to the external dashboard, show up as the reason for the request, and then travel back automatic...

Computer vision pipelines often start simple; You load an image, run a model, get some detections, and draw the results: Image → Model → Detections → Annotation → Output But real computer vision applications rarely stay this simple. Soon you have preprocessing, resizing, tiling, multiple inference steps, filtering, tracking, coordinate transformations, annotations, application-specific logic, and so on. So at the end the pipeline would look more like: ...

I love smart lighting, but I don't love many of the form factors it comes in. With a few exceptions, most smart, color-changing lamps and fixtures fit better in my teenage son's dorm room than my living room. So, I was pleasantly surprised to see Philips Hue's new line of architecturally focused smart lights, launched […]

Philips Hue's AI assistant can now build automations based on natural language, letting you describe what you want your lights to do. The feature, called Custom AI Behaviors, goes beyond simply changing colors or creating a scene and lets users orchestrate complex automations that weren't previously achievable in the Hue app. Announced at a press […]
