As agentic AI moves from experimentation toward enterprise deployment, the challenge is figuring out how agents can work together, connect to the systems and data they need, and operate safely across the workflows that run a business. Although agentic AI has been adopted by some 80% of Fortune 500 companies, progress toward meaningful scale remains…

When Anthropic goes public in a blockbuster offering, which investors will profit? The answer says a lot about how much start-up investing has changed over the years.
As FromSoftware’s new multiplayer game The Duskbloods nears release, the legendary game director behind Dark Souls talks connection, pessimism and of course, feet Since 2020’s Demon’s Souls, Japanese video game director Hidetaka Miyazaki has shown the world a different way to think about game design. His games defy convention with punishing fights, obscure rules, and unknowable, inhospitable worlds. The “Soulslike” genre – named after Demon’s Souls and its sequel Dark Souls – is now ubiquitous, influencing multimillion-sellers from God of War and Star Wars: Jedi to Hollow Knig…
Musk denied he was aware Grok ever produced ‘any naked underage images’ A survivor of child sexual abuse has sued Elon Musk ’s artificial intelligence company, alleging that its chatbot used pictures of her abuse to generate new illegal pornographic images that depict her. “Using real images of Plaintiff and class members, Grok generated child pornography depicting Plaintiff and class members,” states the complaint, which was filed last week in a US district court in California.

I built a cross platform amateur radio program using the egui framework. It was originally built as quite frankly I got annoyed with having so many different programs installed to listen to and send radio signals. If you have a cheap SDR radio dongle like the RTL based ones or even better an AirspyHF+ Discovery laying around then give radio bench a try. Bonus points if you are a licensed ham and have a transceiver. The key idea behind the software is to have a much more realistic and calm workspace for making contacts. The all singing, all dancing programs with the windows 95 style ui are jus…

EXCLUSIVE: India stalls Alipay+ payments link over security, data concerns, sources say Reuters
PicoLM is an LLM inference engine written in C99. It currently supports llama-2, GPT-2, Qwen 3.6/3.8(+MoE) and Gemma-3n models. Significant amount of work went into CPU SIMD acceleration/testing/correctness, and wide cross-platform availability with constant testing to never lose portability (from DOS through OS/X 10.4 to modernity). CUDA/HIP is supported, and accelerated IMMA kernels are available. More work needs to be done on prompt processing speed, but text generation is quite fast already. GGUFs are mmap()'ed, not preloaded, so it's much more friendly to RAM usage than llama.cpp. Extern…

Outrage grows over US strike that killed four people and wounded 67 at a wedding party in Kuhestak.
I built an AI course builder that helps you create hands-on course materials, interactive tutorials, exercises, and automatically checks the work submitted by students. It should feel like Claude Code or Codex for building courses. Most AI course generators stop after producing a syllabus or a collection of text. I wanted the agent to work on the actual course. After giving it a prompt, learning objectives, or a syllabus, the course builder can create and edit: - Modules, lessons, and learning paths - Coding, SQL, multiple-choice, checkbox, and written exercises - Starter code, public example…
mitmproxy cannot recreate the client's TLS, it uses python's TLS stack, so even with a real browser behind it, your connection looks like that of a python script. To solve this, I've created mitmcloak. It reads the client's ClientHello and HTTP/2 preface in real time and mirrors it with httpcloak (my other tls client library), no capture or fine tuning of the preset required. H3 is mirrored as well though QUIC only reaches the proxy in wireguard/transparent/reverse mode as a proxy setting doesn't redirect UDP by default. mitmcloak is an addon to mitmproxy, not a fork, so your setup stays exac…

It also embeds lots of hippie shit. If I'm […]

Hi all, here to share an experiment with you all. And I can get real technical on here because you get it. I built this briefing service. What's a brief? Well it's like a mini-podcast if it was just about what you care about. Oh a new app? Who cares am I right. But it's not an app. It's a service you use over SMS for cheap (because running a mac mini for this is out of my budget or the $100 a month.) The results though arrive in your podcasts app. Since RSS is a widely accepted open-source standard, it can work on all your podcasts apps if it can accept a personalized URL. Which Apple Podcast…
