Three big AI IPOs are set to generate more value than all the U.S. VC-backed exits since 2000.

Benchmark-backed Ollama has amassed 176,000 stars, and nearly 17,000 forks on Github by helping developers easily run AI on their PCs.

SpaceX is currently ahead of last year's record-setting pace for Starlink satellite deployments. SpaceX launched 1,589 Starlink satellites into low-Earth orbit in the first half of 2026, according to launch data compiled by Jonathan McDowell's satellite tracker, compared to 1,489 satellites deployed at the same point in 2025. 2025 was already a record year for […]

OpenAI found two unrelated bugs masquerading as one in ChatGPT's data infrastructure. Silent hardware corruption on one Azure host and an 18-year-old race condition in GNU libunwind's setcontext function with a one-instruction vulnerability window. The breakthrough came from switching to population-level crash analysis rather than examining individual core dumps. By Steef-Jan Wiggers

As extreme heat becomes the norm on the continent, the AC culture wars may be solved by advances in environmentally friendly technology.

We have all been there: you open your editor to write a simple feature, and within ten minutes, your screen is a chaotic mess. You are drowning in squiggly red lines, bright rainbow bracket lines, a crowded sidebar, Git blame popups blocking your text, and terminal notifications screaming for attention. Modern IDEs like VS Code and Cursor are incredibly powerful, but out of the box, they are built to distract you. If you want to achieve true flow state, you need to strip away the noise. Here are 10 minimalist extensions built for both VS Code and Cursor that are explicitly engineered to eliminate clutter, reduce cognitive load, and help you focus on the only thing that matters: the code. Interface and Zen Mode Cleansers 1. Zen Mode (Built-in, but needs tweaking) The Vibe: Complete visual isolation. What it does: While not an external extension, true minimalism starts here. Hitting Cmd+K Z (or Ctrl+K Z) instantly hides the activity bar, status bar, sidebar, and editor tabs, leaving you with nothing but your code centered on the screen. The Focus Trick: Go into your settings and toggle zenMode.hideLineNumbers to true to get rid of the left-hand numbering margin entirely for deep reading sessions. 2. APC Customize UI++ The Vibe: Pixel-perfect control over editor bloat. What it does: If you love the layout of hyper-minimalist editors like Zed but want to keep the power of Cursor or VS Code, this is your holy grail. It allows you to shrink font sizes of the UI independently from your code, hide specific layout borders, trim the massive top title bars, and customize panel padding to give your code room to breathe. 3. Customize UI / Active Bar Hidden The Vibe: Moving target elements out of sight. What it does: The left-hand Activity Bar (with the extensions, search, and source control icons) is a constant source of colorful badge notifications. Use this to hide it entirely. You can easily trigger those panels via keyboard shortcuts (Cmd+Shift+E for explorer, Cmd+Shift+F fo

The Redbelly Network EligibilitySDK is the compliance backbone for any dApp that needs to verify user eligibility (KYC, KYB, investor accreditation) before letting a wallet in. The official documentation covers each piece well on its own reference page, but there is no single walkthrough connecting the frontend widget to the backend verifier to the on-chain permission check to a production deployment. This guide is that walkthrough. Everything here was verified against the live documentation at https://docs.redbelly.network/ in July 2026: contract addresses, route names, config fields, issuer DIDs and every error string in the reference section. Every code example was then compiled against the published SDK package (v0.0.31) on React 19 with Vite and on Next.js 16 with the App Router, and the backend verifier was booted and exercised for real. Where the docs and reality diverge (a quickstart repo that is not publicly visible, a credential faucet still under development, three undocumented behaviours the builds surfaced), the guide says so and gives you the workaround. What you will build, in order: A mental model of the two verification mechanisms (and why conflating them costs you a day) A working backend verifier with the three routes the widget demands A plain React integration with full loading and error states A production-grade Next.js App Router setup: secure proxy, SIWE sessions, request gating, and both static and dynamic rendering approaches An end-to-end test run on Redbelly Testnet The decision logic for choosing between the three SDK flows, and the pattern for combining them A complete error reference: every documented error, its cause, and its fix A developer following this guide should have the widget running inside an existing dApp within about four hours. 1. Overview and Architecture What the EligibilitySDK actually is The Redbelly "Onboarding and Eligibility Kit" ( @redbellynetwork/eligibility-sdk ) is a set of React components and hooks for provin

Users judge a mobile app in the first few seconds, and they judge it harshly. A slow launch, stuttering scroll, or a device that runs hot will sink an otherwise good app faster than a missing feature. Performance isn't one metric — it's four distinct areas, each with its own causes and fixes. Here's how to keep all of them healthy. Startup time — the first impression Time from tap to usable screen is the metric users feel most. Every extra second measurably increases abandonment. The usual culprits are doing too much before the first frame: heavy synchronous work at launch, loading data you don't yet need, and oversized bundles. Fixes: Defer non-essential initialization until after the first screen renders Lazy-load features and screens instead of loading everything upfront Show a real first screen fast, then hydrate data — don't block on the network Trim your dependency footprint; every library adds to startup cost Rendering — kill the jank Smooth means hitting the device's frame budget (about 16ms per frame for 60fps). Dropped frames show up as stutter during scrolling and animation. The main causes are doing heavy work on the UI thread and rendering more than you need. Virtualize long lists so only visible rows render (FlatList, RecyclerView equivalents) Move expensive work off the main thread Avoid unnecessary re-renders — in React Native, memoize and keep render functions cheap Optimize images: right-sized, cached, and in efficient formats Memory — don't get killed The OS terminates apps that use too much memory, and users read that crash as your bug. Leaks and oversized assets are the main offenders. Watch for retained references, unbounded caches, and full-resolution images held in memory. Load and decode images at display size, release resources when screens unmount, and cap in-memory caches. Battery and network — the invisible costs Users blame the app that drains their battery even if they can't name why. The big drains are aggressive polling, chatty netwo

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said emergency scenes are not "edge cases."

Like its U.S. counterpart, the European Chips Act aims to foster the semiconductor industry — in part thanks to state subsidies. One of the beneficiaries is QuantumDiamonds, a German startup that applies a novel approach to inspecting chips.

The Fallout: New Vegas developer has not escaped Microsoft's Xbox layoffs unscathed.

More young girls sue X over Grok CSAM; X accused of shielding child predators.

Both vulnerabilities allow untrusted users to gain root privileges.

As part of Microsoft's big Xbox "reset," which includes layoffs affecting 3,200 staffers, jettisoning studios, and shifting investments to focus on "higher priority projects," Obsidian Entertainment is changing its plans. The studio, behind games like Grounded and The Outer Worlds, is starting work on a new Fallout title and has canceled "multiple projects," including a […]

LLM agents burn a ridiculous number of tokens on redundancy: opening the same files again and again, trying a patch, failing, then wandering back through the repo like they’ve never seen it before. A July 2026 paper, ContextSniper: AntTrail's Token-Efficient Code Memory for Repository-Level Program Repair , puts real numbers behind that waste. In repository-level repair, agents keep dragging in irrelevant code and logs. ContextSniper tackles that with a context layer built around tiered memory and an intention-aware context gate that filters low-value regions before they ever reach the model. That gate alone cut tokens by 51.5% on one host agent and 38.9% on Claude Code, while submitted-resolution rates stayed basically in the same neighborhood. The gate is the interesting part, because it is not tied to that paper’s exact system. It is a more general idea, and it is starting to show up across agent architectures. At heart, the gate is just a classifier. Given a request, it has to decide what kind of retrieval will answer the question cheapest: symbol lookup, semantic search, graph impact, mutation prep, or something else. That leads to the practical question the paper does not really answer: Do you need another LLM call just to decide what context to retrieve? We tested that directly. Five ways agents get code into context Before you can gate anything, you need a retrieval strategy. Most current systems fall into one of five rough families: Grounded read-only retrieval: parse the code and return exact symbol source by name. Byte-precise, no synthesis. Graph code intelligence: model calls, imports, entities, and dependencies as a graph, then traverse it. Embedding / RAG search: use vector similarity over chunks. Whole-repo packers: compress or dump the repo into the context window. Mutate / execute runtimes: retrieve context, then modify or run code. None of these is magic. Graphs are great for relationships, but they can drift away from source. RAG is useful, but f

Lost an evening to this, so you don't have to. The fix everyone hands you is a single checkbox that quietly downgrades how your Mac stores its password. The clean alternative — Kerberos, the exact thing your iPhone already uses — is "impossible" according to three sources I dug up, one of them Apple's own Heimdal source. They're wrong. What follows is the whole path: why it breaks, why the popular fix is the bad one, and the two setups that actually work (a one-shot command and a hands-off automount). My Mac mini shares a folder over SMB. My iPhone mounts it fine. My Linux box: $ smbclient -L 192.168.0.153 -U tmlr%remote session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE Same username, same password, rejected. Every "fix" on the internet ends with "turn on Windows File Sharing for that user on the Mac." That works, and it's the wrong answer. Here's why, and what to do instead. The problem The credentials are correct — the iPhone's connecting just fine. The handshake even completes; run it with -d3 and you'll see the full NTLMSSP exchange finish before the Mac rejects you. So this isn't networking, isn't the password, isn't the SMB dialect. It's authentication, and only Linux hits it. Why: two doors, one account macOS keeps several credentials for a local account, not one. Look: $ dscl . -read /Users/tmlr AuthenticationAuthority AuthenticationAuthority: ; ShadowHash ; HASHLIST:<SALTED-SHA512-PBKDF2,SRP-RFC5054-4096-SHA512-PBKDF2> ; Kerberosv5 ;; tmlr@LKDC:SHA1.XXXX ; LKDC:SHA1.XXXX ; Two things matter in there: HASHLIST is SALTED-SHA512-PBKDF2 (login) and an SRP verifier. There is no NT hash. There's a Kerberosv5 identity in a realm called LKDC:SHA1.<40 hex> . SMB auth has two doors into this account: NTLMv2 — validates against a stored NT hash. Linux smbclient and mount.cifs knock here. Kerberos — validates against the Mac's built-in Local KDC (LKDC), which every Mac runs. Apple clients knock here. Your iPhone walks through the Kerberos door and never touches the NT hash

Bad nextjs folder structure does not show up on day one. It shows up at month six when three developers search for the checkout form hook and find four copies.
