The US government crackdown on Anthropic’s Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5 hides a glaring truth: AI models with advanced hacking capabilities will soon be the norm.

Mobileye apparently wants to own some of the robotaxi market, even if that puts it in direct competition with companies it supplies its self-driving system to.

I've been working for a while on trying to curate a game that has the emergence of procedurally generated computer games but that can be played with only pen and paper. Here I present the best version I've been able to come up with that is simple and emergent. I've really enjoyed being able to engage with this sort of game while not feeling like my brain in rotting. I recon my numeracy improves while playing it.

The company said the cuts were part of a restructuring meant to help scale to profitability. Rivian recently pushed back its profitability goal to invest in autonomy.

Nimble’s thoughtfully designed SharePower is a modular power bank you can share with a friend.

Verizon is launching a new Simplicity plan that starts at $30 / month for new customers, or $45 / month for existing ones.

The Nintendo eShop got a big makeover.

Now that we're clear of WWDC and all of the new AI-powered features coming to Apple's platforms, Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman has more details about rumored new hardware, like the camera-equipped AirPods he'd previously written about. He says they are currently on schedule for a late 2027 launch, and that while we're checking out beta […]

I wrote this technical deep-dive to explore the paradigm mismatch between declarative, set-based processing and sequential, depth-first search algorithms. The write-up walks through the mechanics of forcing a relational database engine (DuckDB) to handle chess logic, specifically: Data Representation: Mapping 64-bit bitboards into a relational model using UBIGINT types. The Pruning Blocker: Why the stateless nature of relational sets prevents sibling nodes from communicating, making true Alpha-Beta pruning impossible inside a single query. The Workaround: Offloading the stateful control flow to an external orchestrator to implement Batched Principal Variation Search (PVS) across query boundaries without violating the declarative nature of the core chess math. The resulting chess engine is obviously not competitive, but the goal was to document the architectural trade-offs, the performance walls encountered with recursive CTEs, and how relational algebra behaves when pushed entirely out of its comfort zone. submitted by /u/swing_bit [link] [留言]

Smart glasses are still a nascent category, but chipmaker Qualcomm is hard at work upgrading the silicon to power the next wave of XR devices: the Snapdragon Reality Elite. Although Qualcomm is announcing the chip today at Augmented World Expo, we've technically already gotten a hands-on with a device powered by the new chip at […]
