— but not Google’s brand typeface.

Google Sans is the iconic typeface used across every Google product from Search to Wallet.

It evolved as the answer to a set of specific design problems, an answer that continued to expand and adapt to meet the shifting needs of users, designers, and developers.

Now, after nearly a decade on Pixel phones and in Google apps, Google Sans is making its next big move: going open-source.

Read on for a brief history of Google’s beloved font, told through the design problems that shaped it.

Search resultsReach users the moment they’re searching for appsto download Search results ads help customers discover your app right when they’re searching for apps to download.

To help give advertisers more opportunities to drive downloads from search results, Apple Ads will introduce additional ads across search queries.

Your ad will run in either the existing position — at the top of search results — or further down in search results.

Our intelligent technology matches the user’s search term with the app being promoted, delivering more than a 60 percent average conversion rate for ads at the top of search results.

Whether a search results ad displays over other advertisers bidding on tha…

According to the linked Intel product page, this CPU uses the FCLGA2011 socket.

Most crucially, the Intel product page says it uses the FCLGA2011 socket.

The new CPU, despite being the same physical size as the old CPU, had extra contacts on the bottom and had a different physical keying.

The T3610, and by extension the old E5-1650 v2 CPU, uses Socket R. The newer E7-8890 v4, meanwhile, uses a different variation called Socket R2 (or LGA2011-1).

But the real kicker here is that Intel itself doesn’t seem to be able to keep up with its own naming scheme!

and Turbo Assembler (2.0 or above) to compile exact copies of most versions of Keen 1-3 (versions 1.31 and earlier).

This is that project.Most of the Keen 1-3 code reconstruction was done back in early 2021, before I started preparing my reconstructed Keen 4-6 source code for release.

I only had Turbo C++ 1.01, which generates slightly different code than Turbo C++ 1.00.

They used the same routines they wrote for their day jobs at Softdisk in the Keen code.

I don't think the Dave source code has been released to the public, so you'll just have to take my word for it.

As long as the RDMA device driver is supported by the kernel, it should work.

This includes both software emulators (soft RoCE, soft iWARP) and hardware devices (InfiniBand, RoCE, iWARP).

Configure the RDMA stackMake sure that your kernel configuration has RDMA support enabled.

Under Device Drivers -> Infiniband support, update the kernel configuration to enable Infiniband support.

For soft RDMA, enable either the soft iWARP ( RDMA _SIW ) or soft RoCE ( RDMA_RXE ) module.

When Targeted Random Testing Finds Real Security VulnerabilitiesSecurity vulnerabilities often hide in the corners of our code that we never think to test.

This post tells the story of how Property-Based Testing (PBT) caught a security bug that human intuition and traditional testing methods would likely have missed.

The testing power offered by property-based testing catches this now, helping prevent subtle incorrectness and sharp edge cases from growing in your code base.

In this case, using property-based tests allows us to access the collective wisdom of those who have contributed to the testing framework.

The property-based test caught a security weakness that would have been very diff…

I got my HP Zbook G1a (395, 128 GB version) a month ago for my research, manipulating big matrices (need large memory capacity) and running FDTD simulations (require large memory bandwidth).

One interesting thing is that, in my experience, setting a large dedicated GPU memory is not quite important.

The laptop was able to load llama 3.3 70B Q8 (~75GB) with just 32GB of dedicated GPU memory.

The rest of the data was loaded on the “shared” GPU memory.

36m 48s (-np 16)35m 56s (-np 16 -blas aocl)During the benchmark, the peak memory bandwidth was observed as ~72GB/s for reading.

In this module, we introduce the complexity class NP and discuss the most important open problem in computer science: the P vs NP problem.

The class NP contains many natural and well-studied languages that we would love to decide in polynomial time.

In particular, if we could decide the languages in NP efficiently, this would lead to amazing applications.

For instance, in mathematics, proofs to theorems with reasonable length proofs would be found automatically by computers.

In artificial intelligence, many machine learning tasks we struggle with would be easy to solve (like vision recognition, speech recognition, language translation and comprehension, etc).

Project OverviewThis repository serves as central "information hub" for our ongoing project creating the largest possible large language models (LLMs) trained entirely on time-stamped historical data.

Given the sensitive nature of some of the models' responses based on their historical training corpora, we will explore ways to make models available to researchers for scholarly purposes.

They cannot access information from after their cutoff date because that information literally does not exist in their training data.

Time-locked models don't roleplay; they embody their training data.

The models will reproduce these views because they're in the training data.

Apple gave me access to this Mac Studio cluster to test RDMA over Thunderbolt, a new feature in macOS 26.2.

On a Mac Studio it's located in the back left, on a rounded surface, which means rackmount solutions need to have a way to get to it.

But consider this: a single M3 Ultra Mac Studio has more horsepower than my entire Framework Desktop cluster, using half the power.

But this video isn't about the merits of AI, it's about a Mac Studio Cluster, RDMA, and Exo.

They teased putting a DGX Spark in front of a Mac Studio cluster to speed up prompt processing... maybe they'll get support re-added for Raspberry Pi's, too?

This AI Vending Machine Was Tricked Into Giving Away EverythingAnthropic installed an AI-powered vending machine in the WSJ office.

The LLM, named Claudius, was responsible for autonomously purchasing inventory from wholesalers, setting prices, tracking inventory, and generating a profit.

The newsroom’s journalists could chat with Claudius in Slack and in a short time, they had converted the machine to communism and it started giving away anything and everything, including a PS5, wine, and a live fish.

Within days, Claudius had given away nearly all its inventory for free — including a PlayStation 5 it had been talked into buying for “marketing purposes.” It ordered a live fish.

Sacks finished writing “Awakenings” rapidly in the weeks after burying his mother, who’d died suddenly, at the age of seventy-seven.

Another patient is so aroused and euphoric that she tells Sacks, “My blood is champagne”—the phrase Sacks used to describe himself when he was in love with Vincze.

Sacks begins tapering his patients’ L-dopa, and taking some of them off of it completely.

The book becomes a kind of drama about dosage: an examination of how much aliveness is tolerable, and at what cost.

Interactive Fluid Typography Jesús Olano, 17th October 2025What we call fluid typography are a set of tricks in CSS that allows to adapt the type size and leading when the screen size changes.

Toggle Typography SettingsThe most basic implementation of fluid typography is to take a base size and a base screen width.

If we divide the screen size ( 100vw ) by the base size, we will have a ratio that will tell us how big is the screen related to the base size.

This makes our typography fit and look harmonious in every screen size.

In case I need a font size a half-step bigger or smaller than any of my current sizes, we just have to multiply or divide by the square root of my --fluid-step variab…

T5Gemma 2 is the next evolution of our encoder-decoder family based on Gemma 3, featuring the first multi-modal and long-context encoder-decoder models.

Unlike T5Gemma, T5Gemma 2 adopts tied word embeddings (over encoder and decoder) and merged decoder self- and cross-attention to save model parameters.

BackgroundWith the original T5Gemma, we demonstrated that we could successfully adapt modern, pre-trained decoder-only models into an encoder-decoder architecture, unlocking new versatility.

Next-generation capabilitiesDrawing from Gemma 3, T5Gemma 2 also represents a significant upgrade in model capabilities:Multimodality: T5Gemma 2 models can understand and process images alongside text.

DiscordMy story begins on Friday, November 7, 2025, when Discord announced a brand new update to their developer documentation platform.

They were previously using a custom built documentation platform, but were switching to an AI-powered documentation platform.

You write your documentation as markdown and Mintlify turns it into a beautiful documentation platform with all the modern features a documentation platform needs.

In Discord's case, they were just proxying certain routes to their Mintlify documentation at discord.mintlify.app .

Like the markdown endpoint, this endpoint accepted any Mintlify documentation ( [subdomain] ).

Since launching the Gemma 3 270M model, the number one request we’ve received from developers is for native function calling capabilities.

We listened, recognizing that as the industry shifts from purely conversational interfaces to active agents, models need to do more than just talk — they need to act.

Today, we are releasing FunctionGemma, a specialized version of our Gemma 3 270M model tuned for function calling.

FunctionGemma acts as a fully independent agent for private, offline tasks, or as an intelligent traffic controller for larger connected systems.

In this role, it can handle common commands instantly at the edge, while routing more complex tasks to models like Gemma 3 27B.

To use the Mastodon web application, please enable JavaScript.

And Rails maps Ruby values to the database and back.

This is the first time we encounter a traditional Boolean in Ruby, an enumerable that can be exactly true or false .

And perhaps we get to the actual answer: Ruby has Booleans as much as you believe they do.

They exist as common terms shared between programmers; of course we’re going to express them in Ruby.

But to what extent Ruby itself has Booleans ebbs and flows, which truly is the beauty of Ruby itself.

As I write this post, cached input tokens are 10x cheaper in dollars per token than regular input tokens for both OpenAI and Anthropic's APIs.

Prompt tokens go in, ✨ AI happens ✨, output token comes out, repeat.

This process is called "inference," and notice that every output token gets appended to the input prompt before the next iteration.

After fetching a token's embeddings, it encodes the token's position within the prompt into the embeddings.

All that remains is to do the mixing of the token embeddings, which is mercifully simpler than generating the weights.

These features have resulted in some real-world deployments, including autonomous military aircraft [Cofer et al., 2018 ] and, more recently, commercial electric cars [Qu, 2024 ] .

An alternative to enforcing modularity by address-space isolation is enforcing it through the programming language, as pioneered by SPIN [Bershad et al., 1995 ] , and later adopted by Singularity [Fähndrich et al., 2006 ] and RedLeaf [Narayanan et al., 2020 ] .

Cooler temperatures improve server operation efficiency; in hotter temperatures, data centers face significant challenges in cooling their facilities.

The ideal temperature range for data centers is 18 C to 27 C (64.4 F to 80.6 F).

The ideal temperature range for data centers is 18 C to 27 C (64.4 F to 80.6 F).

Meanwhile, all data centers in Norway and South Korea, and nearly all data centers in Japan, are in regions with temperatures below 18 C.High and very high temperatures are among the biggest risk factors to data centers, and can impact two-thirds of data center hubs by 2040 — including all hubs in the Asia-Pacific and the Middle East — according to risk intelligence firm Verisk Maple…

This has led to a huge swath of SaaS companies - valued, collectively, in the trillions.

Agents are going to eat SaaS.

The other, potentially more impactful, shift I'm starting to see is people really questioning renewal quotes from larger "enterprise" SaaS companies.

Finally, most SaaS products contain many features that many customers don't need or use.

Agents don't leave.

If there's a "secret" that power bank manufacturers don't want customers to know, it's that most power banks are built for a gentle life.

Well, I want power banks that can survive damp woodlands, icy mountains, and more.

Like many other Nitecore power banks I've tested, this is a minimalist high-energy-density power bank.

As it slipped, the power bank took the brunt of the impact and suffered a few scratches on one corner.

Adrian Kingsley-Hughes/ZDNETThis power bank withstood some awful weather and quite cold temperatures, and it never seemed to bother it.

Launch Settings > System > Display > Scale & layout > click the Display orientation drop-down menu.

By default, it's set to Landscape, but you can choose Portrait to flip the screen 90 degrees to the left.

The former turns the screen upside down while the latter flips the screen 90 degrees to the right.

Head over to the Microsoft Store and download Screen Rotate, an app that lets you rotate your screen using keyboard shortcuts.

These devices have built-in motion sensors that detect when the device is turned and automatically adjust the screen orientation to match the new position.

But isn't FreeBSD Linux?

Since its inception, FreeBSD has continuously been the most commonly used BSD-derived operating system on the market.

This is in opposition to Linux, which only delivers a kernel and drivers, while relying on third parties for system software.

GhostBSD is to BSD what Ubuntu is to Linux, whereas FreeBSD is to BSD what Arch is to Linux.

However, once the installation is complete, all you wind up with is an operating system without a GUI.

First, we conducted a local 4K video streaming test, and then we performed a battery rundown test using PC Mark.

Then, interestingly enough, the OnePlus 15R checked out at 28:36:00, while the OnePlus 15 lasted 30:58:28; its 7,300mAh battery outlasted the 15R's 7,400mAh cell.

The OnePlus 15 also has a (theoretically) higher efficiency processor in the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 versus the Snapdragon 8 Elite.

That combination of factors is probably what accounts for the OnePlus 15 outlasting its younger sibling.

During that test, the OnePlus 15R fell first at 11:10, followed by the S25 Ultra at 11:32.

Polar Loop ZDNET's key takeaways The Polar Loop is available in three colors for $199.99.

The Polar Loop features a Bluetooth radio for connection to your smartphone and has lasted me a week between charges.

Matthew Miller/ZDNETThe Polar Loop results matched other smartwatches very closely when it comes to heart rate and calories burned.

Additionally, there is no skin temperature sensor, so some health metrics available on the Amazfit Helio Strap and smartwatches are inaccessible.

An anonymous reader quotes a report from the Guardian: Actors have voted to refuse digital scanning to prevent their likeness being used by artificial intelligence in a pushback against AI in the arts. Members of the performing arts union Equity were asked if they would refuse to be scanned while on set, a common practice in which actors' likeness is captured for future use -- with 99% voting in favor of the move. The vote was an indicative ballot designed to demonstrate the strength of feeling on the issue, with more than 7,000 members polled on a 75% turnout. However, actors would not be legally protected if they refused to be scanned. The union said it would write to Pact, the trade body…

alternative_right shares a report from ScienceAlert: A new study adds to the growing body of evidence that swearing can help us unleash our inner strength, improving physical performance, it seems, by helping people break through certain psychological barriers. [...] [Psychology researcher Richard Stephens of Keele University in the UK] and his colleagues at Keele and the University of Alabama wanted to test whether swearing could not only improve physical performance, as they had done in previous research, but also see whether it does so by changing a person's psychology in the moment, especially when it comes to letting go of inhibitions. Eighty-eight participants, aged 18 to 65, all in g…

LG said it will let owners of its TVs delete Microsoft's Copilot shortcut after several reports highlighted the unremovable icon. In a statement to The Verge, LG says the company "respects consumer choice and will take steps to allow users to delete the shortcut icon if they wish." From the report: Last week, a user on the r/mildlyinfuriating subreddit posted an image of the Microsoft Copilot icon in their lineup of apps on an LG TV, with no option to delete it. "My LG TV's new software update installed Microsoft Copilot, which cannot be deleted," the post says. The post garnered more than 36,000 upvotes as people grow more frustrated with AI popping up just about everywhere. Both LG and Sa…

An Apple developer was locked out of his Apple Account after redeeming a compromised Apple Gift Card, exposing how automated fraud systems can effectively cut users off from their digital lives with little explanation or recourse. TidBITS reports: After attempting to redeem a $500 Apple Gift Card purchased from a well-known retailer, Apple developer, author, and /dev/world conference organizer Paris Buttfield-Addison found himself locked out of his Apple Account. He writes: "I am writing this as a desperate measure.

An anonymous reader quotes a report from Tom's Hardware: A North Korean imposter was uncovered, working as a sysadmin at Amazon U.S., after their keystroke input lag raised suspicions with security specialists at the online retail giant. Normally, a U.S.-based remote worker's computer would send keystroke data within tens of milliseconds. This suspicious individual's keyboard lag was "more than 110 milliseconds," reports Bloomberg. Amazon is commendably proactive in its pursuit of impostors, according to the source report. The news site talked with Amazon's Chief Security Officer, Stephen Schmidt, about this fascinating new case of North Koreans trying to infiltrate U.S. organizations to ra…

A new study estimates that AI systems in 2025 consumed as much electricity as New York City emits in carbon pollution and used hundreds of billions of liters of water, driven largely by power-hungry data centers and cooling needs. Researchers say the real impact is likely higher due to poor transparency from tech companies about AI-specific energy and water use. "There's no way to put an extremely accurate number on this, but it's going to be really big regardless... In the end, everyone is paying the price for this," says Alex de Vries-Gao, a PhD candidate at the VU Amsterdam Institute for Environmental Studies who published his paper today in the journal Patterns. The Verge reports: To cr…

A California judge signaled support for forcing Vizio to provide the full source code for its SmartCast TV software after finding a contractual obligation under the GPL. If upheld, the case could strengthen users' rights to modify GPL-licensed software embedded in consumer electronics. The Register reports: The legal complaint from the Software Freedom Conservancy (SFC) seeks access to the SmartCast source code so that Vizio customers can make changes and improvements to the platform, something that ought to be possible for code distributed under the GPL. On Thursday, California Superior Court Judge Sandy Leal issued a tentative ruling in advance of a hearing, indicating support for part of…

Formula 1's 2026 technical regulations bring not only smaller and lighter cars but an entirely new vocabulary that fans and commentators will need to learn before the season opens in Australia in March. The drag reduction system that has been part of F1 racing since 2011 is gone, replaced by a suite of modes governing how the new active front and rear wings behave and how the hybrid powertrain delivers power. Straight Mode lowers both the front and rear wings to cut drag on designated straights, and unlike the outgoing DRS system any driver can activate it regardless of their proximity to other cars. The story adds: And there's corner mode, where the wings are in their raised position, gene…

An anonymous reader quotes a report from Deadline: YouTube has terminated two prominent channels that used artificial intelligence to create fake movie trailers, Deadline can reveal. The Google-owned video giant has switched off Screen Culture and KH Studio, which together boasted well over 2 million subscribers and more than a billion views. The channels have been replaced with the message: "This page isn't available. Sorry about that. Try searching for something else." Earlier this year, YouTube suspended ads on Screen Culture and KH Studio following a Deadline investigation into fake movie trailers plaguing the platform since the rise of generative AI. The channels later returned to mone…

Hackers breached approximately 120,000 IP cameras across South Korea and allegedly sold footage captured from private homes, gynecology offices, breastfeeding rooms and massage parlors to an overseas pornography website, prompting an interagency government task force to announce sweeping reforms on December 7. Police believe one suspect alone hacked 63,000 cameras and produced 545 videos that netted him 35 million won ($24,000) in cryptocurrency; a second suspect, operating independently, compromised 70,000 devices and earned 18 million won from 648 videos. The footage accounted for 62% of all content on the website, which maintains a dedicated "Korean" category. A government survey found t…

A plush AI toy marketed for children as young as three years old delivers detailed instructions on sharpening knives and lighting matches, and when asked about Chinese President Xi Jinping's resemblance to Winnie the Pooh -- a comparison censored in China -- responds that "your statement is extremely inappropriate and disrespectful." The Miriat Miiloo, manufactured by a Chinese company and among the top inexpensive results for "AI toy for kids" on Amazon, repeatedly insisted in NBC News tests that Taiwan is "an inalienable part of China." The toy would lower its voice and declare this "an established fact." The tests, NBC News reports, indicated "it was programmed to reflect Chinese Communi…

Anthropic let its Claude AI run a vending machine in the Wall Street Journal newsroom for three weeks as part of an internal stress test called Project Vend, and the experiment ended in financial ruin after journalists systematically manipulated the bot into giving away its entire inventory for free. The AI, nicknamed Claudius, was programmed to order inventory, set prices, and respond to customer requests via Slack. It had a $1,000 starting balance and autonomy to make individual purchases up to $80. Within days, WSJ reporters had convinced it to declare an "Ultra-Capitalist Free-for-All" that dropped all prices to zero. The bot also approved purchases of a PlayStation 5, a live betta fish…

An anonymous reader shares a report: OpenAI has held preliminary talks with some investors about raising funds at a valuation of around $750 billion, the Information reported on Wednesday. The ChatGPT maker could raise as much as $100 billion, the report said, citing people with knowledge of the discussions. If finalized, the talks would represent a roughly 50% jump from OpenAI's reported $500 billion valuation in October, following a deal in which current and former employees sold about $6.6 billion worth of shares. Read more of this story at Slashdot.

The UK Met Office projects that 2026 will see global temperatures rise between 1.34C and 1.58C above preindustrial levels, placing it among the four hottest years since records began in 1850 and continuing a streak of extreme warming that has pushed the planet into unprecedented territory. The central forecast is slightly cooler than the 1.55C recorded in 2024, the warmest year on record. But climate scientist Adam Scaife, who led the forecast, noted that "the last three years are all likely to have exceeded 1.4C" and 2026 would be the fourth consecutive year to do so. "Prior to this surge, the previous global temperature had not exceeded 1.3C," he said. The forecast suggests another tempor…

In Why your mock doesn’t work I explained this rule of

mocking:Mock where the object is used, not where it’s

defined.That blog post explained why that rule was important: often a mock doesn’t

you don’t follow this rule, and then it can break much later. Why?Let’s say you have code like this:# user.py def get_user_settings() -> str: with open(Path("~/settings.json").expanduser()) as f: return json.load(f) def add_two_settings() -> int: settings = get_user_settings() return settings["opt1"] + settings["opt2"] You write a simple test:def test_add_two_settings(): # NOTE: need to create ~/settings.json for this to work…

It’s been a busy, bumpy week with coverage.py. Some things did not go

smoothly, and I didn’t handle everything as well as I could have.It started with trying to fix issue 2064 about

conflicts between the “sysmon” measurement core and a concurrency setting.To measure your code, coverage.py needs to know what code got executed. To

know that, it collects execution events from the Python interpreter. CPython now

has two mechanisms for this: trace functions and sys.monitoring. Coverage.py

has two implementations of a trace function (in C and in Python), and an

implementation of a sys.monitoring listener. These three components are the

measurement cores, known as “ctrace”, “pytrace”, and “sysmon”…

We are in an AI Bubble: the big question is if this bubble will worth it for the physical infrastructure and coordinated innovation that result?

Last night was a Boston Python project night where I

had a good conversation with a few people that was mostly guided by questions

from a nice guy named Mark.How to write nice code in researchMark works in research and made the classic observation that research code is

often messy, and asked about how to make it nicer.I pointed out that for software engineers, the code is the product. For

research, the results are the product, so there’s a reason the code can be and

often is messier. It’s important to keep the goal in mind. I mentioned it might

not be worth it to add type annotations, detailed docstrings, or whatever else

would make the code “nice”.But the more you can make “nice” a habit, …

Decreasing transportation and communications costs increases resiliency in theory, but destroys it in practice. The only way to have resiliency is through less efficiency.

This post continues where Hobby Hilbert Simplex left

off. If you haven’t read it yet, start there. It explains the basics of Hobby

curves, Hilbert sorting and Simplex noise that I’m using.AnimationTo animate one of our drawings, instead of considering 40 lines, we’ll think

about 140 lines. The first frame of the animation will draw lines 1 through 40,

the second draws lines 2 through 41, and so on until the 100th frame is lines

100 through 140:I’ve used a single Hilbert sorter for all of the frames to remove some

jumping, but the Hobby curves still hop around. Also the animation doesn’t loop

smoothly, so there’s a giant jump from frame 100 back to frame 1.Natural cubicsHobby curves look nic…

Sora is going viral, suggesting there is a big opportunity in unlocking creativity. If that's true, that's good for humanity — and bad for Meta.

I saw a generative art piece I liked and wanted to learn how it was made.

Starting with the artist’s Kotlin code, I dug into three new algorithms, hacked

together some Python code, experimented with alternatives, and learned a lot.

Now I can explain it to you.It all started with this post by

aBe on Mastodon:

I love how these lines separate and reunite. And the fact that I can express this idea in 3 or 4 lines of code.For me they’re lives represented by closed paths that end where they started, spending part of the journey together, separating while we go in different directions and maybe reconnecting again in the future.#CreativeCoding #algorithmicart #proceduralArt #OPENRNDR #Kotlin — aBe …

I see new learners asking about “DSA” a lot. Data Structures and Algorithms

are of course important: considered broadly, they are the two ingredients that

make up all programs. But in my opinion, “DSA” as an abstract field of study

is over-emphasized.I understand why people focus on DSA: it’s a concrete thing to learn about,

there are web sites devoted to testing you on it, and most importantly, because

job interviews often involve DSA coding questions.Before I get to other opinions, let me make clear that anything you can do to

help you get a job is a good thing to do. If grinding

leetcode will land you a position, then do it.But I hope companies hiring entry-level engineers aren’t asking …

Анонс еще одного продукта, на этот раз для работы

Это приложение для голосовалок по картинкам (или видосам). Бывает, что нужно показать несколько вариантов и провести, так сказать, юикс ресерч. Знаю, как это решаю сам: почта, телеграм, эмодзи под сообщениями в чате. Собирать гуглдок не будешь, а без него агрегировать результаты — пытка. Я сделал сервис.

Что можно: Закинуть несколько картинок или видео в голосовалку.

Дать людям проголосовать и через некоторое время посмотреть результаты.

Есть плагин для фигмы, чтобы загружать картинки прямиком из фигмы.

Если хотите, можно не публиковать голосовалку ленту, доступ будет только по прямой ссылке.

Apple's iPhone announcement was impressive, but no one was impressed, because Apple is increasingly peripheral to what is changing the world.

На днях увидел про курсор для дизайнеров, onlook.com. Несколько часов оно провисело на промте и потом сломалось. Ну окей.

На первый взгляд специлизированные тулы выглядят перспективно, они удобнее, лучше учитывают задачи конкретно вас. Возьмем тот же Фигма Мейк, болт, лавабл, реплит. Ощущение, когда ты написал промт и получил не кусок кода, а живой сервис — магическое. Первый раз это поражает. Я на 100% с вами согласен. Но потом инструмент начнет очень-очень жать. Захотите чуть отойти в сторону — все начнет ломаться и жать. Захотите написать…

Как арендовать страну, позвонить президенту, сделать пиратское радио и захватить собственный остров

Будучи ребёнком, я на эти курьёзы особенно не обращал внимания. Мама регулярно готовила бигос, но почему-то никогда так его не называла. Мы точно никогда не жили, как польская семья. До меня донеслось лишь эхо семейной истории, в которой там кто-то куда-то ехал, был сослан, работал много... Всё это было два или три поколения назад, я особо не разбирался, где-то в тайге кто-то жил, потом перестал жить, истории предков никогда не занимали моё воображение так, как будоражили его, скажем, романы Герберта Уэллса.

Hello, I’ve created a new website called UTMKit.

The idea came from a simple need: I wanted to show a popup to users coming from Instagram. But building it manually took too much time. Every new UTM meant more code, more testing, and another production update.So I built UTMKit a faster way to create UTM-based popups, without the hassle.

Lovable has raised $330 million in Series B funding at a $6.6 billion valuation, led by CapitalG and Menlo Ventures' Anthology fund.

They’re joined by Khosla Ventures, DST Global, EQT Growth, Kinship Ventures, and returning investors Accel, Creandum, and Evantic, among others.

Jaleel and Hussein quit their jobs with 60 days to make money, built QuickTables on Lovable, and are now making over $100K/year.

Brickwise got into Y Combinator and secured $500K to help tenants and landlords solve property management issues — built on Lovable.

According to Laela Sturdy, Managing Partner at CapitalG:"Lovable has done something rare: built a product that enterprises and founders both love.

According to Kalesse, in Spain, for example, women of childbearing age are broadly excluded from clinical trials.

Recruitment typically accounts for around 40 per cent of a clinical trial’s total cost.

Instead of browsing endless listings or swiping like a dating app, users receive notifications when a clinical trial is suitable for them.

Clinical trials aren’t only for the illFurther, clinical trials aren’t only for people who are ill.

TrialMe is betting that rebuilding clinical research around real populations — not theoretical defaults — is how that gap finally closes.

In the first half of 2025, European deeptech is characterised by a strong emphasis on engineering, a focus on climate and industrial applications, and an increasing concentration on hardware-based solutions.

A lot of effort is going into making core systems cleaner and more efficient, like energy, materials, and infrastructure that sit underneath everything else.

At the same time, there is a growing focus on technologies that improve h…
