Are moderate Democrats washed?

A year ago, the hottest idea in Democratic circles was “abundance” — a growth-friendly agenda with centrist appeal that would help the party prove it was capable of shoving aside special interests and governing again.  Fast-forward a year. Today, in primary after primary, the far left is on the march. Last week’s victories for socialist […] Read more

Booking.com still runs on the internal A/B testing framework its engineers wrote in Amsterdam in the mid-2000s, with no major rewrite since, and at any given moment it is running more than 1,000 live experiments on the same booking page you’re looking at

Booking.com runs more than 1,000 concurrent experiments on its production booking flow through an in-house framework its Amsterdam engineers built in the late 2000s — a foundational piece of software that has been extended continuously but never rewritten. The case reveals how the most powerful systems in modern e-commerce are often the oldest. Read more

This motor could be the future of e-bikes

Imagine an e-bike motor that lets you select your preferred pedaling cadence and then automatically adjusts the gears to keep your legs spinning at that exact speed, no matter how steep the hill gets - all without a fragile derailleur or heavy multi-speed cassette to maintain. Prefer manual control? No problem, you can have as […] Read more

Я декомпилировал свою зависимость: как программист раскидал курение на 100+ субличностей и перестал курить

Курение - это баг в прошивке. Я декомпилировал его, нашёл 100+ модулей, отвечающих за зависимость, и переписал код. Почти 30 лет курения стали частью системы, которую можно отладить. Рассказываю, как я это сделал.Или: "Системный подход к отказу от курения: от Паучка-Дитя-Ленивца до Императора-Тела" Читать далее Read more

"We can't back out now!" Onimusha: Way of the Sword developer laughs off concerns around 2025's packed September release window

Onimusha: Way of the Sword is one of many, many games due to launch in the September/October period in 2026. As developers and publishers flee as far away from GTA 6 black hole as they possibly can, the resultant squeeze in the earlier (or later) months is resulting in a veritable feast of triple-A and indie games on the horizon.

Бездумное использование ИИ ведёт к вырождению специалистов

Это не критика искусственного интеллекта, а размышления на тему к чему может привести бездумное использование этого весьма полезного инструмента. Осознаём ли мы, что в погоне за прибылью держатели больших языковых моделей разрушают человеческий интеллект.Не секрет, что генеративные трансформеры ничего не изобретают, а лишь используют большие языковые модели для генерирования (комбинирования) правдоподобных текстов. Соответственно, те, кто использует сгенерированные тексты без должного критического анализа,. Read more

While many enterprises have already begun integrating AI-generated images, visuals, graphics and videos into their production workflows — there is also a growing pool of data and subjective commentary indicating AI imagery ultimately looks non-distinct, monotonous, and too unoriginal to ensure a brand and its assets stand out from the pack. That it's "AI slop," in other words. AI creative tools startup Krea is hoping to change that trend by... Read more

OpenAI and Broadcom this morning unveiled their first custom AI accelerator chip named "Jalapeño," positioning it is as a purpose-built processor for large language model (LLM) inference, rather than the more general GPUs offered by the likes of Nvidia or AMD. According to its creators, Jalapeño is designed to support workloads behind ChatGPT, Codex, the API and future agentic products, though notably, both OpenAI's and Broadcom's news releases position it...

Customer expectations have shifted from simple, fast conversational interactions to complex agentic AI-powered tasks that legacy IT architectures simply can’t handle. To address this, Intuit made the bold decision to overhaul its technical infrastructure for its business platform. The company moved away from its multi-agent setup, which prioritized broad capabilities, to a granular, skill-and-tool-based architecture while embedding human experts directly into the workflow alongside AI. This shift involved d Read more

AI agents are increasingly proficient at executing business tasks autonomously, but IT leaders are cautious about granting permissions to access enterprise systems. Part of the challenge lies in how AI reliability is measured. Industry standards often rely on EVAL scores, which provide a static snapshot of performance rather than a measure of overall reliability. These metrics can fail to capture predictability across prompts, environments, and input types, said Bryan Silverthorn,... Read more

Shopify built an LLM proxy that gives every engineer access to multiple AI providers — with automatic failover when any one of them goes down, changes, or disappears. When Claude Fable 5 shut down, Shopify's engineers didn't go into panic mode.

Drug discovery is notoriously inefficient. Pharmaceutical projects span years, moving from one specialized human team to the next through disconnected workflows that result in knowledge loss during each handoff. A shocking 90% to 95% of drug discovery projects reportedly fail — one of the highest failure rates of any industry. A single successful drug can take over a dozen years and up to $1 billion from initial discovery to patient... Read more

As enterprise AI agents take on increasingly complex, long-horizon tasks, their performance is often restricted by their harness, the software scaffolding that connects the backbone LLM to its environment. Currently, harnesses are largely static and hand-crafted. Improving them is largely manual and they do not automatically improve based on the execution data they collect from their environment.To address this engineering bottleneck, researchers at Xiaomi introduced HarnessX, a framework that treats...
