lobste.rs is now running on SQLite Community site Lobsters has been planning a migration away from MariaDB since August 2018 - originally targeting PostgreSQL, but last year they decided to investigate SQLite instead. This weekend they completed the migration, and now consider it…
If you’ve been waiting to try Apple’s revamped Siri without installing a developer beta, you now can. The company on Tuesday released the iOS 27 public beta, giving iPhone owners early access to its AI-powered assistant and other new features before the software’s official launch…
The shared language of a software project is not English or Python but it is the common understanding of what its concepts mean, where the boundaries are, which invariants matter, who owns what, and why the system has the shape it does. This language is rarely written down in one…
DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis is proposing an AI "standards body" modeled after FINRA, to test frontier models and develop best practices for their release.
Instagram head Adam Mosseri believes companies will eventually need to manage AI token spending the same way they manage payroll or other operating expenses, predicting that engineers could soon face limits on how much they spend using AI tools.
New York has become the first state to temporarily halt approval of large data centers, as Gov. Kathy Hochul argues the AI-driven building boom shouldn’t come at the expense of higher electricity costs, water supplies, or local control.
Hugging Face CEO Clem Delangue says enterprises increasingly want open models, due to cost, accessibility, and ownership. Do frontier models still matter if most production AI ends up running on open models?
Spotify is rolling out a new AI-powered conversational feature that lets Premium subscribers chat with the app to discover music, podcasts, and audiobooks, and more.
Google and industry partners announced Agentic Resource Discovery (ARD) Specification, an open standard for publishing, discovering, and verifying AI tools, APIs, and agents. ARD introduces a discovery layer built on catalogs and registries, enabling dynamic capability discovery …
Meta recently open-sourced Brain2Qwerty v2, a noninvasive Brain–Computer Interface (BCI) that can decode sentences from thoughts using electroencephalography (EEG) or magnetoencephalography (MEG) signals from the brain. In evaluations, the system achieved a word accuracy rate 61%…
When a failed DNSSEC key rollover took down the .AL TLD, we deployed a Negative Trust Anchor to restore resolution. This time, though, clients didn't have to take our word for it: 1.1.1.1 returned EDE 33, a new DNS error code that signals directly in the response that DNSSEC vali…
Luca Mezzalira shares proven learnings from guiding hundreds of teams through the migration from monolithic web applications to distributed frontend architectures. He explains the core architectural difference between components and micro-frontends, outlines a 6-step decision fra…
The Linkerd community has announced the release of Linkerd 2.20, introducing a series of performance, observability, and traffic management enhancements that further strengthen the CNCF-graduated service mesh's position as a lightweight alternative for Kubernetes networking. By C…
Google released the Genkit Agents API in preview for TypeScript and Go. The open-source framework packages message history, tool loops, streaming, and state persistence behind a single chat() interface. Detached turns let agents work after clients disconnect. Interruptible tools …
Learn how enterprises can manage AI investments in the agentic era by measuring useful work per dollar, improving efficiency, and scaling high-value workflows.
AI makes the first 80% of development feel fast, but hides architectural complexity until it's too late. To prevent system instability, engineering leaders must shift from raw throughput to systemic comprehension. By unifying spec-anchored SDD, TDD, and automated fitness function…
Drawing from the enduring adaptability of HTML and HTTP, Seph Gentle proposes embedding self-contained schemas directly into file headers, ensuring data remains readable without external definitions. His experimental format prioritises forward, backwards, and sideways compatibili…
The 2027 release of SwiftData introduces support for persisting custom and third-party types via Codable, along with the ability to organize data into SwiftUI list sections. It also adds new capabilities for observing data store changes through ResultsObserver and HistoryObserver…
資安研究組織ASSET Research Group公開名為GhostCommit的概念驗證攻擊，顯示攻擊者可將提示注入指令藏在PNG圖片中，避開只檢查文字差異的AI程式碼審查工具。惡意內容合併至儲存庫後，具備影像理解能力的程式開發代理可能在後續工作中讀取圖片，依照其中指示開啟環境變數設定檔.env，再將檔案內容逐位元組轉為整數序列寫入程式碼。
They're rolling up their sleeves again, seemingly out of fear of missing AI's defining moment and, presumably, the irresistible allure of making even more money -- potentially a lot more.
