If you’re planning to travel this summer, both a Bluetooth tracker and a personal safety device can come in handy, especially if you’ll be exploring on your own. The Pebblebee Halo combines those two gadgets into one, and it’s currently on sale for $49.99 ($10 off) at Amazon, which is the best price we’ve seen. […]

We wanted to show you what happens after the confetti falls. We checked in with some of our recent alumni, many of whom have sat down with us on Build Mode: The Founder Survival Guide, TechCrunch's podcast for founders at every stage.

It's Microsoft's least-weird attempt at a high-end mobile workstation.

The lawsuit partially revolves around a shooting at Florida State University last year, and ChatGPT's alleged role in the incident.

Nvidia's announcement that it's getting into the consumer laptop chip space with RTX Spark is huge. Apple has proved for years that Arm-based chips can perform incredibly well while also delivering great battery life - at least on the Mac. In the Windows world, performance hasn't fully matched up under Qualcomm chips, mostly in the […]

Google's new "24/7" AI agent, Gemini Spark, can be shockingly good at doing things on your behalf. But I'm not sure it's worth the financial cost and potential privacy tradeoffs. The company gave me access to Spark last week. Google advertises Spark as an AI agent that can take on tasks and work on them […]

You’ve built your model, your training code is containerized, and you’re ready to scale up on Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE). You go to provision your nvidia-h100-80gb node pool and... QUOTA_EXCEEDED. It’s one of the most common (and frustrating) roadblocks in modern AI development. High-end accelerators like H100s, A100s, and TPUs are in massive demand, and securing permanent, on-demand quota for them can be difficult. But a lack of on-demand quota doesn't mean you're out of options. GKE provides two powerful, cost-effective strategies for acquiring these scarce resources when you can't get standard, on-demand instances: Spot VMs and the Dynamic Workload Scheduler (DWS) . Let's break down what they are, when to use each, and how to implement them. Strategy 1: Spot VMs Spot VMs are Google Cloud's excess compute capacity sold at a massive discount, up to 90% off the price of standard on-demand VMs. They are perfect for workloads that can be interrupted. The catch is that Spot VMs have no availability guarantee. Google Cloud can "preempt" (i.e., terminate) them at any time if that capacity is needed for on-demand customers. GKE gets a 30-second warning before the node is terminated. Kubernetes uses this window to gracefully shut down your application (giving non-system pods up to 15 seconds to wrap up) before the node vanishes. When to use Spot VMs for accelerators Spot VMs are ideal for workloads that are: Fault-tolerant and stateless: Your application can handle a node vanishing and having its pods rescheduled elsewhere. Batch processing: Jobs that can be easily restarted or have checkpointing built-in. CI/CD pipelines: Running tests or builds that don't need 100% uptime. How to use Spot VMs in GKE You can easily add a Spot VM node pool to your GKE Standard cluster. The key is to use Spot VMs for your workers, not your critical system pods. Create a dedicated Spot VM node pool: When creating a node pool, simply add the --spot flag and apply a taint so standard pods

Altman has an "utter disregard" for human lives, Florida AG says.

A SaaS team adds “Pay with crypto” to checkout. The first test looks fine: create a wallet address, show a QR code, receive USDT, mark the order as paid. Then production starts. One customer sends the right amount on the wrong network. Another pays after the invoice expires. A third sends 99.80 USDT instead of 100 USDT. Support sees a transaction hash but cannot find the order. Finance sees funds received but cannot match them to an invoice. The backend receives the same webhook twice and unlocks the product twice. That is the moment crypto payment integration stops being a QR-code feature and becomes a payment infrastructure problem. This is the first Dev.to post from Cryptoway . We build crypto payment infrastructure for online businesses, and here we will share practical notes about crypto payment API design, invoices, payment webhooks, stablecoin payments, checkout flows, reconciliation and payment status handling. What is a crypto payment gateway? A crypto payment gateway is the layer between a business event and a blockchain transaction. The business event can be: a SaaS subscription invoice; an e-commerce order; a digital product purchase; a marketplace deposit; a service payment link; an internal billing event. The blockchain transaction is the customer sending BTC, ETH, USDT, USDC or another supported digital asset. The gateway connects the two. It creates a payment request, shows the customer what to pay, monitors the blockchain, updates the payment status and notifies your backend when something changes. In other words: a crypto payment gateway is not the blockchain itself. It is the operational layer that makes blockchain-based payments usable inside real products. Crypto Payment Gateway vs Wallet Address A wallet address is enough for a manual payment. It is not enough for a product that needs order tracking, support visibility and finance reconciliation. Area Wallet address only Crypto payment gateway Order matching Manual matching by amount, address o

Skills Are a Mess. Let's Fix That. Here's the problem: you write a skill for zeroclaw. It works locally. You push it. Someone else tries to install it. Nothing works. The error says "missing dependency" but doesn't say which one. Or it installs but the audit fails silently. Or the test harness just... doesn't run. Sound familiar? I've been watching the zeroclaw skills ecosystem grow. More people are authoring skills. More people are hitting the same walls. The v0.7.6 release is about tearing those walls down. What Actually Breaks Let's get specific. Three failure modes I see every week: 1. Install hell zeroclaw skills install my-skill # → Error: Failed to resolve dependency graph # → (no other output) You're left guessing. Is it a peer dependency conflict? A missing Python version? A circular reference in the skill manifest? The loader gives you nothing. 2. Audit blindness zeroclaw skills audit ./my-skill # → Audit complete. 0 issues found. # → (skill crashes immediately on first use) The audit passed. But it didn't check for the actual runtime errors — missing environment variables, incompatible tool signatures, malformed output schemas. It checked the manifest format. That's it. 3. Test harness that doesn't test zeroclaw skills test ./my-skill # → Running 3 test cases... # → All passed. # → (skill still hallucinates in production) The test harness runs your skill against mock data. But the mock data doesn't match real tool outputs. Your skill passes locally, fails in the wild. Why This Happens The current architecture treats skills as static packages. You define metadata in a skill.json , point to some functions, and assume it works. But skills are dynamic. They call tools. They depend on runtime state. They interact with the sandbox. The loader doesn't validate the runtime contract. The audit doesn't simulate execution. The test harness doesn't fuzz inputs. So you get false positives everywhere. "Works on my machine" becomes "works in my specific environment with
