Sometimes, a short game hits the spot

Slots & Daggers, a low-key, fantasy-themed slot machine roguelike, was one of my favorite games last year. That may sound like a complicated description, but the game mixes ideas from deckbuilding roguelikes with slot machines to create an engrossing loop, and there's steady meta-progression that helps you push further with just about every run. Perhaps […] Read more

Zero Trust для AI-агентов: как безопасно давать LLM доступ к инструментам, данным и действиям

AI-агенты уже вышли за пределы чат-ботов. Они читают документы, вызывают API, анализируют логи, создают тикеты, готовят правки в коде и выполняют многошаговые задачи без ручного подтверждения каждого шага. Это делает их полезными, но меняет модель риска: агент с инструментами становится явным риском внутри инфраструктуры.Главная идея Zero Trust для таких систем проста: агенту нельзя доверять по умолчанию только потому, что он запущен внутри компании или работает от имени легитимного пользователя.
