Amazon Engineers Want Claude Code, but the Company Keeps Pushing Its Own Tool

About 1,500 employees endorsed the formal adoption of Claude Code in one internal forum thread, and some pointed out the awkwardness of being asked to sell the tool through AWS's Bedrock platform while not being permitted to use it themselves.

The Trump administration is about to tear down a load-bearing ruling that considers climate change as a threat to Americans’ health.  Today, the Environmental Protection Agency is announcing that it will publish its final rule to dismantle the endangerment finding for greenhouse gases — the legal foundation of the EPA’s major US climate regulations.

Apple Vision Pro finally gets a YouTube app today

Apple’s Vision Pro is a curious product — it initially wowed me two years ago, but it was hard to ignore that the visionOS platform felt incomplete without dedicated apps for YouTube and Netflix. Well, it seems that Google has finally decided to take the Vision Pro seriously, as it’s launching a YouTube app on the platform today. Previously, you could only view YouTube videos via Safari, or through third-party... Read more

Downbeat Crypto Sector Looks to AI for Rescue

Crypto’s market crash has prompted much soul-searching within the industry, I learned at this week’s annual crypto Consensus conference in Hong Kong. The answer: To stay relevant, the industry must tie its fate with the AI boom. I find the crypto industry’s hopes for an AI rescue somewhat ironic, given that AI has siphoned capital and talent away from crypto in the last two years. Nevertheless, “AI agent” was the...

The Bizarre Enhancement Claims Rocking Ski Jumping

German newspaper Bild reported in January that some ski jumpers have been injecting their penises with hyaluronic acid ahead of the Milan Cortina Winter Olympics -- the theory being that temporarily enlarged genitalia would yield looser-fitting suits when measured by 3D scanners, and those looser suits could act like sails to produce longer jumps. A study published last October in the scientific journal Frontiers found that a 2cm suit change... Read more

Good News: We Saved the Bees. Bad News: We Saved the Wrong Ones.

Despite urgent pleas to Americans to save the honeybees, "it was all based on a fallacy," writes Washington Post columnist Dana Milbank. "Honeybees were never in existential trouble. And well-meaning efforts to boost their numbers have accelerated the decline of native bees that actually are." "Suppose I were to say to you, 'I'm really worried about bird decline, so I've decided to take up keeping chickens.' You'd think I was... Read more

The First Signs of Burnout Are Coming From the People Who Embrace AI the Most

But for most other roles, the argument goes, AI is... Read more

AI Gold Rush is Resurrecting China's Infamous 72-hour Work Week - in US

The AI boom has revived a workplace philosophy that China's own regulators cracked down on years ago: the 72-hour work week, known as 996 for its 9am-to-9pm, six-days-a-week cadence. US startups flush with venture capital are now openly advertising it as a feature, not a bug. Rilla, a New York-based AI company that monitors sales reps in the field, warns applicants on its careers page to expect roughly 70-hour weeks.... Read more
