Modal, a startup that rents out Nvidia graphics processing units and software to help developers run and train models as well as agents, is in talks to raise money at around a $4.5 billion valuation. That would be an 80% premium to its last valuation from just a few months ago, according to two people with knowledge of the round.
The steep hike in valuation follows a jump in its annualized revenue to around $300 million, up five times from its pace last fall, one of the people with knowledge said. Much of.

11 мая Anthropic выкатили в Claude Code новую фичу — agent view. Это менеджер сессий: один экран, в котором видны все запущенные параллельно сессии Claude Code, их статус и какие из них ждут ввода. Запускается командой claude agents. Звучит как мелкое улучшение, но на практике решает реальную боль — раньше для трёх параллельных задач нужны были tmux-сетка и mental ledger в голове. Обновил Claude Code, потестил неделю, рассказываю, что внутри... Read more ›

![[Перевод] Вайб‑кодинг для ПЛИС: как я собрал I2S FIFO‑реклокер без знания Verilog](https://times42.com/media/0/3/3/12423033_640x200.jpg "[Перевод] Вайб‑кодинг для ПЛИС: как я собрал I2S FIFO‑реклокер без знания Verilog")
Вайб‑кодинг выглядит безобидно, пока речь идет о скриптах, лендингах и небольших сервисах. Но что будет, если попробовать с его помощью собрать проект для ПЛИС: с I2S, FIFO‑буфером, DSD, S/PDIF, UART, PSRAM и отладкой на реальном железе? Я проверил это на практике и почти без знания Verilog прошел путь от мигающего светодиода до рабочего FIFO‑реклокера для цифрового аудио. Получилась история о том, где ИИ действительно помогает инженеру, где уверенно ведет в... Read more ›

Давайте попробуем еще раз, в прошлый раз как-то не задалось, но много воды утекло с тех пор. Проект начался как простой способ "заглянуть в БД сервера" собственно таким он и остается до сих пор.

Релиз залетел в топ-1 GitHub Trending, набрал 61 тысячу звёзд за пару недель, попал во все технические телеграм-каналы.

Рассказываю, что внутри, чем отличается от Claude Code и OpenHands, и почему телеграм-маркетинг расходится... Read more ›
