On June 9th, Anthropic released its Fable generative AI model. Three days later, the US government classified it as a dangerous munition, and used its export-control authority to prohibit any foreign nationals from accessing it. Unable to differentiate between Americans and foreigners, the company shut off access for everyone. The government’s actions won’t help . The problem isn’t any one particular model; it’s the general trend of increasing AI capabilities. And any real solution requires the sort of collective action that just isn’t possible right now...

For young people, the trend removes the stigma of being unmarried and alone, and recasts it as something to aim for, not avoid.

Efficient C++ Programming for Modern 64-bit CPUs, Chapter 4/part 2 Here comes the 2nd installment of (VERY DRAFT) Chapters from my (and Dmytro Ivanchykhin's) upcoming book, "Efficient C++ Programming for Modern 64-bit CPUs" . Comments are extremely welcome (as before, we're committed to fixing all the issues highlighted in comments). Second part of Chapter 4 (the one on CPU Physics and CPU Cycles): https://6it.dev/blog/infographics-operation-costs-in-cpu-clock-cycles-take-2-80736 . In addition to some interesting data (in particular, micro-research on the progress of MUL/DIV ops since 2017), it has that visualization of the different times quite a few ppl here have asked for. DISCLAIMERS: - it is VERY DRAFT (editing is coming) - this is not a book on optimizations (though some techniques will be covered in Appendices A and B in Vol. 2) - this is a book on de-pessimizations; for optimizations - please refer to the excellent book by Denis Bakhvalov (though we're sure that de-pessimizations should be seen as a prerequisite for optimizations 😉). submitted by /u/no-bugs [link] [留言]

Miami-based AI startup Subquadratic came out of stealth mode last month with a huge claim. It announced that it had solved a mathematical bottleneck that had been holding back large language models for almost a decade. The details were thin, and many people were unconvinced. But Subquadratic has started to bring the receipts, sharing the…

The crypto platform claims you can “pay anyone to do anything,” from quitting a job on camera to getting a memecoin-themed tattoo. But it mostly seems like people trying to scam each other.

Apple’s fall macOS release will let you build Shortcuts by typing what you want to happen. But Claude Code and Codex users don’t have to wait.

LLM costs scale linearly with usage. A system processing 10,000 requests a day at $0.01 per request costs $100 daily — $365 a year. At enterprise scale, that's over $10,000. Cost optimization isn't about cutting corners. It's about spending tokens where they matter. Every token you waste is a token you could have spent on a better answer. Token budgeting The simplest way to control costs is to set limits. Per session, per task, or per day. Strategy 1: Per-Session Budgets Per-session budgets are straightforward: class SessionBudget : def __init__ ( self , budget_tokens : int = 10000 ): self . budget = budget_tokens self . used = 0 def allocate ( self , tokens : int ) -> bool : if self . used + tokens <= self . budget : self . used += tokens return True return False def remaining ( self ) -> int : return self . budget - self . used Strategy 2: Per-Task Budgets Per-task budgets are more useful. Different tasks need different amounts of context: task_budgets : classify : max_tokens : 100 model : qwen2.5-1.5b summarize : max_tokens : 500 model : qwen2.5-7b code_review : max_tokens : 2000 model : qwen2.5-coder-7b reason : max_tokens : 4000 model : qwen2.5-32b Strategy 3: Adaptive Budgets Adaptive budgets adjust based on what actually happens. If classification tasks consistently use 80 tokens, stop allocating 100: class AdaptiveBudget : def __init__ ( self ): self . task_history = {} def allocate ( self , task_type : str ) -> int : if task_type in self . task_history : return int ( self . task_history [ task_type ] * 1.5 ) return 1000 def record ( self , task_type : str , tokens_used : int ): if task_type not in self . task_history : self . task_history [ task_type ] = tokens_used else : self . task_history [ task_type ] = ( 0.9 * self . task_history [ task_type ] + 0.1 * tokens_used ) The exponential moving average (0.9 weight) means recent usage matters more than history. Adjust the weight based on how volatile your workloads are. API vs local inference Local inference

LLMs are unpredictable. They hallucinate, leak data, generate harmful content, or refuse legitimate requests. Guardrails constrain model behavior without sacrificing capability. The key is knowing which guardrails matter and which are just noise. Guardrails aren't about controlling the model. They're about controlling the risk. Input validation The most important guardrail. Bad input gets bad output, and bad input can also prompt-inject your system. Strategy 1: Prompt Sanitization Sanitize dangerous patterns early: import re class PromptSanitizer : def __init__ ( self ): self . dangerous_patterns = [ r " ignore\s+previous\s+instructions " , r " system\s+prompt " , r " you\s+are\s+now\s+free " , r " break\s+out\s+of " , ] def sanitize ( self , prompt : str ) -> str : for pattern in self . dangerous_patterns : prompt = re . sub ( pattern , " [REDACTED] " , prompt , flags = re . IGNORECASE ) return prompt This isn't bulletproof. Adversarial inputs are creative. But it catches the obvious ones, and the obvious ones are the most common. Strategy 2: Input Length Limits Length limits prevent token waste and timeouts: class InputValidator : def __init__ ( self , max_length : int = 10000 ): self . max_length = max_length def validate ( self , prompt : str ) -> tuple [ bool , str ]: if len ( prompt ) > self . max_length : return False , f " Input too long: { len ( prompt ) } > { self . max_length } " return True , " OK " Strategy 3: Content Filtering Content filtering blocks policy violations. The patterns here depend on your domain: class ContentFilter : def __init__ ( self ): self . blocked_topics = [ " violence " , " hate speech " , " self-harm " , " sexual content " , " illegal activities " , ] def filter ( self , prompt : str ) -> tuple [ bool , str ]: prompt_lower = prompt . lower () for topic in self . blocked_topics : if topic in prompt_lower : return False , f " Blocked: { topic } " return True , " OK " Simple string matching is fast but imprecise. For production, us

Running a 70B parameter model to summarize a 200-word email is wasteful. Running a 3B model to review production code is reckless. Most systems live somewhere in between — and that's where model routing comes in. It matches task complexity to model capability. The tradeoffs are real, but the savings are too. The routing problem People usually start with one model and stick with it. That works until you notice the cost, or the latency, or both. The alternative is building a router — something that decides which model handles which request. Four strategies work in practice: Capability-based — route by what the model can do Cost-aware — route by what you're willing to spend Latency-aware — route by how fast you need it Hybrid — combine them Each optimizes something different. Picking one is usually a decision about what hurts most. Capability-based routing The simplest approach. Classify the task, send it to the model that handles it. Task Model size Examples Classification, tagging 1-3B Qwen2.5-1.5B, Gemma-2-2B Summarization, extraction 3-7B Qwen2.5-7B, Llama-3.1-8B Code generation 7-14B Qwen2.5-Coder-7B, DeepSeek-Coder-V2 Complex reasoning 14-32B Qwen2.5-32B, Llama-3.1-70B Creative writing, analysis 32B+ Qwen2.5-72B, Claude, GPT-4 If the task doesn't need the bigger model, don't use it. A 1.5B model handles sentiment classification fine. It just won't write a coherent essay. Implementation is straightforward: ROUTING_RULES = { " classify " : { " model " : " qwen2.5-1.5b " , " max_tokens " : 100 }, " summarize " : { " model " : " qwen2.5-7b " , " max_tokens " : 500 }, " code_review " : { " model " : " qwen2.5-coder-7b " , " max_tokens " : 2000 }, " reason " : { " model " : " qwen2.5-32b " , " max_tokens " : 4000 }, " creative " : { " model " : " claude-sonnet-4 " , " max_tokens " : 8000 }, } def route_request ( task_type : str ) -> dict : return ROUTING_RULES . get ( task_type , ROUTING_RULES [ " reason " ]) The catch is classification itself. If you get the task type

Single-model systems are simple. Multi-model systems are powerful. The challenge isn't choosing models — it's designing the architecture that orchestrates them. A multi-model system isn't about having more models. It's about having the right model for the right task at the right time. Architecture patterns Five patterns cover most use cases: Pattern Complexity When to use Tradeoff Single Model Lowest Prototyping, simple tasks Limited capability Sequential Low Multi-step workflows Higher latency Parallel Medium Independent tasks Higher cost Hierarchical High Complex reasoning Complex orchestration Ensemble Highest Critical decisions Highest cost Pick the simplest one that works. Complexity is real, and it compounds. Sequential architecture Process tasks through a chain of models, each specializing in a step. Pattern 1: Pipeline Pipeline pattern — each model's output feeds the next: class ModelPipeline : def __init__ ( self ): self . models = [ { " model " : " qwen2.5-1.5b " , " task " : " classify " }, { " model " : " qwen2.5-7b " , " task " : " extract " }, { " model " : " qwen2.5-32b " , " task " : " reason " }, ] def process ( self , input : str ) -> str : current = input for model_config in self . models : current = self . call_model ( model_config [ " model " ], self . create_prompt ( model_config [ " task " ], current ) ) return current Latency adds up. Three models in sequence means three times the latency. Only use this when each step actually needs a different model. Pattern 2: Router Router pattern — classify the task, route to the specialist: class ModelRouter : def __init__ ( self ): self . classifier = " qwen2.5-1.5b " self . specialists = { " code " : " qwen2.5-coder-7b " , " math " : " qwen2.5-32b " , " creative " : " claude-sonnet-4 " , " general " : " qwen2.5-7b " , } def route ( self , prompt : str ) -> str : task_type = self . classify ( prompt ) model = self . specialists . get ( task_type , self . specialists [ " general " ]) return self . call_m

Hello Dev Community! 👋 It is officially Day 45 of my non-stop run toward full-stack engineering! Yesterday, I learned how to serve static HTML pages using Express routing. Today, I took a major step toward building premium, clean, and minimalist UI/UX styles by installing and mastering Tailwind CSS via the Tailwind CLI ! Instead of writing massive, chaotic external CSS stylesheet files, today I shifted to the industry-standard utility-first workflow to speed up my design iterations. 🧠 Key Learnings From Day 45 (Tailwind CSS Architecture) Tailwind doesn't give you pre-built components; it gives you atomic utility classes that let you build completely custom, high-end layouts directly inside your HTML structure. Here is the engineering breakdown: 1. Tailwind CLI Installation & Initialization I learned how to integrate Tailwind from scratch using npm packages instead of lazy CDN links. Installed the tailwindcss compiler core ( npm install -D tailwindcss ). Initialized the configuration hub using npx tailwindcss init . 2. Crafting the Content Map inside tailwind.config.js Understood how Tailwind optimizes final file weights using tree-shaking. I configured the structural template paths so the compiler knows exactly which files to scan for dynamic styling classes: javascript /** @type {import('tailwindcss').Config} */ module.exports = { content: ["./public/**/*.{html,js}"], // Scanning static folders cleanly theme: { extend: {}, }, plugins: [], }

The “5-minute market” concept is gaining attention because of how fast new prediction rounds appear and how quickly volume builds up. Each cycle is short, which creates both opportunity and risk for anyone trying to analyze or trade it. In this article, I’ll break down how I’ve been approaching this space from a data perspective, how I’m thinking about building an edge, and the tools I’ve been experimenting with. What is the 5-minute market? A 5-minute market is a fast-cycle prediction or trading window where outcomes resolve quickly and new markets appear frequently. Compared to longer timeframes (like 15-minute markets), these shorter cycles: Generate more trading opportunities per hour Require faster data collection and processing Make latency and execution extremely important Increase noise in price action Because of this, traditional slow analysis often doesn’t work well here. Data collection approach My current setup focuses on continuously pulling market data in real time. The idea is simple: Connect to a market data source (I’m using a Gamma API as part of the pipeline) Stream or request live market updates Store order book + price movement data Aggregate it into 5-minute windows for analysis The goal is to build a dataset that can later be used for backtesting and feature extraction. Right now, I’m mainly focusing on a single asset (PPC) to keep things simple while testing the pipeline. Where the potential edge might come from The key question is: can we predict short 5-minute movements better than random chance? Some areas I’m exploring: 1. Order book behavior Tracking: Liquidity changes Bid/ask imbalances Sudden volume spikes 2. Session-based behavior Some traders observe patterns during different market sessions: Asian session behavior London session volatility Overlap periods These may or may not hold in 5-minute markets, but they’re worth testing. 3. Micro momentum patterns Since markets reset frequently, short momentum bursts might matter more than lo

Hello, I'm Maneshwar. I'm building git-lrc, a Micro AI code reviewer that runs on every commit. It is free and source-available on Github. Star git-lrc to help devs discover the project. Do give it a try and share your feedback. I boot up my machine. The desktop loads. And before I open my editor, before I check Slack, before I do a single productive thing, I right-click an empty patch of desktop and hit Refresh . Then I do it again. And again. I am a person who can explain event loops and reason about cache invalidation, and yet here I am, mashing F5 on a static wallpaper like it owes me money. If you've never done this, congratulations, you're better than me. If you have ... welcome. You're among friends. First, let's kill the myth There's a folk belief that refreshing the desktop is a tiny act of system maintenance. A little spring cleaning. A gift to your hardworking CPU. It is not. Manually refreshing your desktop does not : free up RAM reduce CPU load clear some mysterious cache make your PC faster in any way, shape, or form All it does is tell Windows Explorer to redraw the current view . That's it. That's the whole feature. What's actually happening under the hood Here's the part that's actually interesting (we're devs, we live for the "actually"). Windows doesn't repaint your entire screen on every frame, that would be wildly wasteful. Instead it leans on a composition engine that, with help from your GPU when one's available, only redraws the regions that changed since the last frame. Already drawn elements get cached and reused. Icons, the taskbar, your wallpaper they're all mostly static, so mostly left alone. When something genuinely changes (you save a file, delete a folder, plug in a drive), the OS detects it and tells the composition engine: "hey, this little rectangle changed, repaint just that." The desktop refreshes itself, automatically, all day long, without you ever touching anything. So the manual Refresh button is really just a manual overrid

There is a comfortable lie that has taken root in information security domain. It goes like this: "We have invested in the best tools. We have CSPM. We have CNAPP. We have ASM, ASPM, EDR, SIEM. We are covered." Boards believe it. CISOs present it. Security budgets are built around it. And while everyone is looking at dashboards full of green, two things are quietly true: One — attackers are not trying to beat your tools. They are looking for what your tools were never designed to see. Two — the most dangerous gaps in your security posture today are not gaps in your tooling budget. They are gaps in visibility, knowledge, and the fundamental understanding of what your own systems are supposed to do — and whether they actually do it. No tool solves that. Only people do. The Tool Trap The security industry has industrialized the idea that protection is a purchasing decision. Spend enough. Deploy enough. Integrate enough. And you will be secure. This thinking has produced something genuinely useful — a generation of powerful tools that automate detection, surface known misconfigurations, and reduce the manual burden on security teams. CSPM catches publicly exposed storage buckets. EDR detects malware. SIEM correlates suspicious behavior across logs. These tools matter and they work — within the boundaries of what they were designed to see. But there is a boundary. And most organizations have no idea where it is. The boundary is this: every security tool operates on known patterns, defined rules, and observable configuration state. None of them operate on context. None of them understand intent. And intent — what a system was supposed to do, how it was supposed to be accessed, what data it was never supposed to expose — is exactly where the most dangerous vulnerabilities live today. The Dangerous Gap Nobody Has Named Yet Security practitioners are familiar with the concept of IoM — Indicator of Misconfiguration. A wrong setting. An overpermissioned role. A flag that flipp

"Email verification" sounds like one thing, but it's really a stack of checks of increasing depth and cost. Knowing what each layer actually proves helps you pick the right level instead of overpaying for verification you don't need. Layer 1: syntax The cheapest check: does the string look like a valid email address? A pragmatic regex catches obvious garbage ( asdf , a@@b , trailing spaces). It's instant and free, but weak on its own: nobody@asdf.asdf passes syntax and can't receive a single message. Layer 2: domain and MX records Next, does the domain actually accept mail? Every domain that receives email publishes MX (mail exchanger) records in DNS pointing to its mail servers. A quick DNS lookup tells you whether any exist. No MX (and no fallback A record) means the domain can't receive mail, so the address is undeliverable no matter how it's spelled. This single step removes a large class of fakes and dead domains. Layer 3: SMTP mailbox check The deepest level connects to the domain's mail server and begins the motions of sending a message to ask whether that specific mailbox exists, without actually delivering anything. It's the only layer that can hint a particular inbox is real, but it comes with real caveats: It's slow (a live connection per address). Many servers are "accept-all" and say yes to everything, so the answer is often meaningless. Lots of providers block or throttle these probes, and outbound port 25 is blocked on most modern hosting, so it's frequently unavailable anyway. SMTP checks matter most for cleaning old, cold lists, and far less for stopping junk at signup. The heuristics layer Alongside those, useful verification adds signal that has nothing to do with deliverability per se: Disposable detection: is it a throwaway provider? Role detection: is it info@ or admin@ rather than a person? Typo suggestions: "did you mean gmail.com?" for gmial.com . A deliverability score: one 0–100 number that rolls it all up so you can just threshold on it.

PSYONIC's prosthetic touch data is now training ABB robots. Gatik signed the first Fortune 50 commercial autonomous freight contract with PepsiCo. Burro drove Physical AI onto the construction site. Experts set $20k as the humanoid price target. And someone just called Edge AI the Windows of robotics. This week, Physical AI crossed three invisible lines at once. A company that makes prosthetic hands figured out that the touch data from amputees is exactly what industrial robots need to learn how to grip. A Fortune 50 company signed not a pilot but a commercial contract for autonomous freight. A 44-horsepower robot drove off the warehouse floor and onto the construction site. And two separate conversations about software and pricing suggest that the next wave of robotics adoption will be driven by access, not capability. Here is what happened, and why it matters beyond the headlines. Value Description Fortune 50 PepsiCo becomes first to sign a commercial contract for autonomous freight with Gatik $20k Target price point for humanoid robots, Robotics Summit consensus: achievable by 2028–2030 1M hours Burro's field experience backing the Grande 44 autonomous outdoor platform 100+ Pressure sensors per fingertip in PSYONIC's Ability Hand, now training ABB GoFa A Prosthetic Hand Is Now Teaching an Industrial Robot How to Grip The standard approach to teaching a robot how to handle objects has been simulation, teleoperation, or labor-intensive physical demonstrations. PSYONIC and ABB just introduced a different source of data : the hands of people who have already learned to feel again. PSYONIC's Ability Hand is a prosthetic with more than 100 pressure sensors per fingertip . The company has been collecting kinesthetic data from users with upper-limb amputations. That data, which captures how a human hand adjusts grip pressure, contact area, and force across thousands of everyday tasks, is now being fed as training data into ABB GoFa robot arm models. The implication is no

How I Cut My Multimodal AI Costs by 97% — A Freelancer's Guide Last month I almost killed a side gig because of a single line item on an invoice. A client wanted me to build a document-processing tool that could read scanned PDFs, pull text out of photos, and answer questions about charts. Easy enough — except I'd quoted the job assuming I'd use GPT-4o for the vision work. When I actually ran the numbers, I realized the API bill would eat my entire margin. I'd be working for free. Maybe worse. So I did what every freelancer does when the big-name vendor gets too expensive: I went hunting. And I landed on Global API, which routes to a bunch of multimodal models I've honestly never heard clients talk about. After a few weeks of testing, I figured out which ones are worth my billable hours and which ones aren't. This is everything I learned, plus the exact code I'm shipping to clients. Why Multimodal Even Matters for Solo Devs Two years ago, "multimodal" was a buzzword you'd hear at conferences. In 2026 it's table stakes. I've personally used vision models to: OCR receipts for an expense-tracking app (boring but pays the rent) Convert screenshots of legacy code into editable source for a Y2K-era company migration Read bar charts from PDF reports for a finance client who hates spreadsheets Analyze medical imaging samples for a startup MVP (this one was scary) Every one of those jobs started as a quick conversation with a prospect and turned into real invoices because I could say yes. The bottleneck was never capability — it was always cost. When GPT-4o charges north of $10/M output tokens, a single 2,000-token response on a tricky chart costs me about two cents. Multiply by 10,000 images per month and you've got a $200 API line item before you've paid yourself. That's a problem when the whole job is worth $400. So I tested every multimodal model I could find on Global API. Here's the lineup I ended up evaluating. The Contenders Nine models, three providers, one freelanc
