A WIRED timeline shows how dozens of governments, companies, and other organizations across Europe are moving, or planning to shift, away from US Big Tech.

We've seen Axiom Space and Prada's collaboration on the Axiom Extravehicular Mobility Unit (AxEMU) spacesuit. Now the company has revealed the Liquid Cooling and Ventilation Garment (LCVG) that astronauts will wear underneath it when Artemis IV returns humans to the Moon in 2028. The LCVG is the all-important base layer that will keep the crew […]

We run 10+ web products. For years our SEO tooling was a $100+/month subscription we mostly used for one job: technical audits. The keyword and backlink dashboards sat untouched while the bill renewed every month. At some point the math stopped making sense, so we rebuilt our stack around what we actually use. Here's the honest breakdown — what we kept free, what we replaced, and why. What a technical audit actually needs to check Before picking tools, it helps to know what you're auditing. The technical layer is finite and well-defined: Crawlability — robots.txt, broken internal links, redirect chains Indexability — noindex tags, canonical correctness, soft 404s, orphan pages Sitemaps — only canonical, indexable, 200-status URLs On-page — titles, meta descriptions, one H1, valid structured data International — hreflang reciprocity (if you're multilingual) Performance — Core Web Vitals (LCP, CLS, INP) That's it. None of it requires a keyword database or a backlink index — the two things you're really paying $100+/mo for in the big suites. The free tools that cover most of it Google Search Console is non-negotiable and free. The Pages report is the source of truth for what's indexed and why the rest isn't. PageSpeed Insights (free) gives you real Core Web Vitals. Screaming Frog's free tier crawls up to 500 URLs, which is plenty for small sites. For a long time that was our whole stack: GSC + PageSpeed + free Screaming Frog. If your site is under 500 pages, you may not need anything else. Where it broke down for us The free Screaming Frog cap (500 URLs) is the wall. Several of our sites are bigger, and re-auditing them meant either the paid Screaming Frog licence (annual) or going back to a monthly suite. Both felt wrong for something we run after every deploy. So we built our own crawler for the technical layer — and then, honestly, turned it into a product because other people we talked to had the same problem. It does the whole checklist above across the entire sit

Microsoft has created a special edition Xbox Series X to celebrate 25 years of the console.

I built something I desperately needed: daily AI audio lessons from real developer trends (plus a Dutch coach for inburgering B1). The hardest part wasn't the AI. It was figuring out how to score genuine rising skills vs. one-day noise. I ended up building a cross-day momentum signal that rewards skills accelerating over 3+ days and dampers spikes. But I'm stuck on the next problem: how do you personalize this without storing user data? (I'm privacy-first, so no subscriber DB — Telegram holds the member list.) If you've solved this, I'd love your take. And if you're learning Dutch + coding, I'd appreciate you trying it and telling me what's useless. What I'm curious about: Is the momentum signal actually working — am I surfacing real trends or just noise? Would the Dutch coach be useful for expat developers in NL, or is it too niche? Technical details (for those who care): • 7 sources: GitHub Trending, HN (Who-is-Hiring + front page), Stack Overflow tag deltas, dev.to, Reddit, Lobste.rs • Map-reduce skill extraction with deterministic attribution (corpus scan, not LLM tally) • Grounded briefs: reads actual source text via Jina + Exa, cited sources • Delivered via Telegram (audio + PDF), Spotify podcast, email • Privacy: PII redacted at ingestion, no subscriber data stored Live: https://yusuprozimemet.github.io/LearnX-Radar/ GitHub: https://github.com/Yusuprozimemet/LearnX-Radar (P.S. This is still beta — I'm looking for feedback, not users. If you try it, tell me what's useless, not what's good.)

The Virtual OS Museum isn't a physical place, it's a collection of over 1,700 distinct installations of over 600 operating systems for over 250 platforms that you can download and run via emulation right on your computer. It's largely the work of one man, Andrew Warkentin, a developer and OS historian who has been slowly […]

Sorry Anker: JMGO now makes my favorite flagship portable projector. The N3 Ultimate is an excellent portable 4K projector that defeats moderate ambient light at severe placement angles and can rival more expensive home theater installations at night. After a few weeks of testing, I think the raw adaptability exhibited by the JMGO's N3 Ultimate […]

Every AI coding tool can write Python — Cursor, Claude Code, Windsurf. None of them can run it safely in production. That gap between "AI wrote the code" and "the code ran safely" is exactly what I'm building jhansi.io to close. This series documents the journey. One layer of the problem at a time. The execution gap When AI generates code, four things still stand between you and prod: Dependencies — Install the right packages, with versions and licenses you trust Isolation — Run it hard-sandboxed. No host access, no outbound network, no surprises Secrets — Let AI use your API keys without ever letting it see or leak them Audit — Log every execution. Prompt, code, result, timestamp. Compliance-grade. Most teams stop at step 1. Banks and fintechs can't. FCA, SOC2, and the EU AI Act require audit trails for AI actions. You can't eval() your way through an audit. jhansi.io is the missing run() for AI-generated code. Open core, cloud sandbox, built to close each part of the gap — layer by layer. The series Part 1 — Persistent sandboxes Why "ephemeral" breaks debugging, state, and compliance. The case for giving every AI a home directory. → Read Part 1 Part 2 — Dependency management (coming soon) Detecting, installing, and locking deps across Python, Node, Go, and Java. With SBOMs and policy built in. Part 3 — Isolation (coming soon) What "hard isolation" actually means. Containers, Firecracker, zero trust networking, and the metadata service attacks you haven't thought of yet. Part 4 — Secrets (coming soon) Kernel-level proxies. AI can call Stripe without the key ever entering the sandbox. Part 5 — Audit (coming soon) Who ran what, when, with which prompt. Hash-chained logs that satisfy auditors, not just engineers. Building this in public. Follow the series on Dev.to , Linkedin , and X . Code is Apache 2.0 at github.com/jhansi-io .

Facebook has long been filled with feeds of clickbait articles. Now, Meta is making its own clickbait articles with AI. The standalone Meta AI app now has a "For You" section that populates a list of clickbait-style stories for you to read. But the topics, images, and text are all AI-generated - and as questionable […]

Apple has been on its back foot, AI-wise, for the past few years. But in a strange way, playing from behind might not be such a bad move. At WWDC on Monday, Apple appears to be getting ready to reintroduce us to the new Siri. Again. As a reminder, we met the new Siri in […]

Day 48 of building GoDavaii, and the toughest problem isn't the sheer volume of allopathic medicines or the complexity of their interactions. It's the invisible logic of 'Desi Ilaaj' - the home remedies and traditional practices deeply ingrained in Indian families for generations. When everyone knows the comfort and efficacy of 'haldi-doodh' (turmeric milk) for a cold, how does an AI health platform authentically verify and integrate that knowledge without replacing professional medical advice? This isn't just a cultural nod; it's a fundamental challenge for any health AI truly built for India. Global competitors like Epocrates or drugs.com, while excellent within their scope, are entirely English-centric and focused on Western allopathic data. They have no framework for the millions of people who search for health guidance in Hindi, Tamil, or Marathi, and whose first instinct for a cough might be a herbal concoction, not an over-the-counter syrup. The Unspoken Truth About India's Health Landscape For a vast majority of Indian families, health decisions often involve a blend of modern medicine and traditional wisdom. From specific herbs to dietary adjustments passed down through generations, these practices are effective for many minor ailments. Yet, in the digital health space, they're largely ignored. Why? Because the data is fragmented, often anecdotal, and doesn't fit neatly into structured pharmacological databases. It's a goldmine of practical health knowledge, but also a minefield for safety if not handled with care. My realization as Pururva Agarwal, 27-year-old founder of GoDavaii, was simple but profound: if we truly want to serve families coming online in their mother tongue, our AI needs to understand and interact with this context. This means going far beyond just translating English medical terms into 22+ Indian languages. It means building a knowledge graph that can intelligently cross-reference traditional remedies with known active compounds, potent

Imagine your smartwatch detects an irregular heart rhythm at 3 AM. Instead of just waking you up with a frantic "beep," an AI agent immediately analyzes your historical health data, searches for the best cardiologist nearby, and prepares a calendar invite for a consultation. This isn't science fiction—it's the power of Healthcare Automation driven by AI Agents . In this tutorial, we are diving deep into LangGraph , the cutting-edge framework for building stateful, multi-agent applications. We’ll explore how to use State Machines to orchestrate a complex medical workflow, moving from an "Abnormal Heart Rate Alert" to a "Specialist Appointment" using the Tavily API for research and Twilio for urgent notifications. By the end of this guide, you’ll understand how to manage non-linear LLM workflows that require reliability and precision. The Architecture: Why LangGraph? Traditional LLM chains are linear. But medical emergencies are not. They require loops, conditional branching (e.g., "Is this an emergency or a routine check-up?"), and state persistence. LangGraph allows us to define a graph where each node is a function and edges define the transition logic. Data Flow Overview The following diagram illustrates how our agent processes a heart rate alert: graph TD A[Start: Heart Rate Alert] --> B{Severity Triage} B -- Emergency --> C[Twilio: Alert Emergency Services] B -- High Risk --> D[Tavily API: Find Best Specialist] B -- Normal/Review --> E[Log to Health Records] D --> F[Google Calendar: Draft Appointment] F --> G[Twilio: SMS Patient Confirmation] C --> H[End] G --> H E --> H Prerequisites 🛠️ To follow along with this advanced tutorial, you'll need: Python 3.10+ LangGraph & LangChain : The orchestration engine. Tavily API Key : For searching local medical specialists. Twilio Account : For SMS/Voice alerting. An OpenAI API Key (GPT-4o is recommended for medical reasoning). Step 1: Defining the Agent State In LangGraph, the State is a shared schema that evolves as it m
