SpaceX plans to launch a new Starlink mobile service for customers in the US. The company is considering building its own terrestrial mobile network in the country. The new retail offering would put SpaceX in direct competition with Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile. Some analysts say that the idea may be a gamble to extract better deals from the company's telecom partners, as it would cost billions of dollars to roll out the required infrastructure.

Meta is building an app that allows people to make bets on practically anything, similar to Polymarket and Kalshi. Arena, which is now a top priority within Meta, will use points instead of real money and is aimed at 18- to 34-year-olds. The company is now actively trying to form partnerships with Polymarket and Kalshi, but it is unclear what kind of arrangement Meta is seeking. If released, Arena will be a stand-alone app, but Meta eventually plans to integrate parts of it into Facebook and Messenger.

Around 8% of the land in the major coastal cities in the US was underwater in the 1890s. Some cities, like Boston and Charleston, have doubled in size by reclaiming land. The demand for land is now higher than ever, but the country has virtually ceased to reclaim any at all. Regulations introduced in the 1970s made it enormously expensive to reshape the landscape. Lifting these legal barriers could mean hundreds of thousands of new homes near the centers of the country's most valuable cities.

Amble, a European electric car company, has released a $25,000 electric buggy designed for places where a normal car feels out of place. The Amble One has a range of more than 60 miles with a top speed capped at 40 miles per hour. It takes five hours to charge the vehicle from any standard home socket. The vehicle weighs under 450 kilograms, which allows it to drive on public roads in Europe without being treated as a car.

This handbook describes the most important patterns used in software engineering when money is the primary focus of the system. It aims to provide a comprehensive understanding for people entering fintech, those already in it, and those outside the industry. The guide follows three principles: no invented data, no lost data, and no trust. Money can't be created out of nowhere, everything that happens to money has to be tracked and persisted, and everything must be verified.

A local setup is a viable alternative to using proprietary services for many coding workflows. Running agents locally makes them transparent, inspectable, and free to run apart from hardware and electricity costs. This tutorial walks readers through how to set up a production-ready coding agent with a fully local stack. The agent uses a locally served LLM with a coding harness that allows it to read files, make edits, run commands, and verify changes.

Anthropic is now allowed to serve its Mythos 5 model to trusted companies and government partners. Fable 5 remains restricted and restrictions on Mythos 5 still apply to entities that aren't trusted partners. The US government is racing to implement an executive order recently signed that gives federal cybersecurity officials a say in AI model evaluation. The industry is in limbo and will have to react to case-by-case decisions by the administration until the order is implemented and standards are in place.

Apple has raised the prices of its Macs and iPads. Price tags for Mac computers rose roughly 15% to 20%, and iPad prices rose 15% to 25%. iPhone prices were unchanged, but price increases are likely coming. The increase in pricing has been attributed to rises in component prices. The price of memory and storage chips has quadrupled over the past year due to surging demand from AI hyperscalers.

The US government has requested that OpenAI release GPT-5.6 to a short list of trusted partners before a wider release. OpenAI staff have been instructed to work with the Trump administration on any input that officials have on safety and restrictions. GPT-5.6 will initially be released to 20 partners through Amazon's Bedrock software platform. The Trump administration is continuing to collaborate with frontier AI labs to develop a shared approach for addressing the challenges of scaling the technology.

SpaceX's planned AI satellite constellation will be called Starmind. Starmind will compute data directly in orbit using onboard processors powered by large solar arrays. It will allow AI models to run inference, process queries, and generate outputs from space. Starship will be able to carry 30 to 50 Starmind AI1 satellites per launch.

IBM claims to have created sub-1-nanometer chip technology. The company says its nanostack architecture can deliver the computing performance expected if a theoretical chip could be built with physical features smaller than 1 nanometer. The design stacks transitions in a staggered layout to pack more transistors in the same space. IBM describes its new chip technology as being built at the 0.7-nanometer node, but it is important to remember that these node numbers have nothing to do with the actual physical dimensions of the chip.

The AI-native tooling layer is multiplying fast and is crowded already. Being an 'AI engineer' is not a moat. AI can help build prototypes, but production is a different animal that requires engineers who understand reliability, scale, security, performance, observability, and operational trade-offs. The biggest returns may actually come from knowing one hard thing exceptionally well.

Gemini 3.5 Flash has a built-in tool called Computer Use that lets the model look at a screenshot and a goal and return structured actions.

A series of recent developments has caused OpenAI's executives to lean towards holding off the company's initial public offering until next year. SpaceX's IPO was the largest ever, but its stock value dropped quickly. Global markets have been choppy in recent weeks, with tech stocks dragging down indexes. These factors may mean that retail investors might not have much enthusiasm for OpenAI's shares.

Z.ai released GLM-5.2 just days after Anthropic was forced to shut down its most powerful AI systems due to a demand from the US government. GLM-5.2 is nearly as powerful as Anthropic's Fable and Mythos models, but it costs much less to use, and no one in the US is putting restrictions on it. The model is currently one of the world's top 10 most popular models. It is open source, so anyone can use and modify it for free.

The funds will be used to back the development of treatments that could protect people from many viruses at once.

Colin Angle, who led iRobot for nearly three decades, has a new startup called Familiar Machines & Magic that is selling a robot designed to help people monitor their loved ones. The robot, called the Familiar, is an expressive, furry creature that can react to people's actions and feelings in an emotionally intelligent way. It is still in an early prototype stage, so there's no information about price or availability, but videos of the current iteration of the product are available in the article. The Familiar will use local small models to process requests and won't send any data to the cloud.

Natural language is becoming an interface. Software is beginning to understand instructions in human language. Language-native software will accept intent in the language users already speak, translate it into structured operations, and execute them deterministically. This makes language the interface itself.

Large language models will code from scratch unless you explicitly tell them about existing functionalities. They don't know to use existing code unless you tell them to. Letting them know what already exists can result in significant token savings. It can also help remove entire categories of security and reliability issues.

Mark Zuckerberg recently dispatched a small team at Meta to create a smartphone app similar to Polymarket and Kalshi. The app uses a points system rather than real money, but Meta has not ruled out the eventual use of real money betting. Internally referred to as 'Arena', the app will function independently from Meta's other apps. The effort is part of a broader purchase at the company to create new types of apps based on emerging social behavior online.

Claude Tag is a new feature that lets users create a chatbot that interacts on their behalf on Slack.

Claude Tag will replace the existing Claude Slack app. It is being rolled out to Anthropic's enterprise and team subscription users.

The use of robots in war will only increase. All signs point towards governments relying on a much smaller pool of human capital for labor and war. The use of unmanned munitions drives down costs and lessens the need for humans on the battlefield without weakening deterrence. This means that a fundamental source of political power has begun to shift from the people towards the firms that make the machines.

A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket lifted off yesterday with a new saucer-shaped reentry pod called Starfall. The secretive mission's purpose is reportedly to support the transport and delivery of goods through space. Most of what is known about Starfall comes from the FAA's environmental assessment, which says that Starfall will enable point-to-point delivery of critical cargo through space on rapid timelines and provide access to space for commercial in-space manufacturing. Starfall is designed exclusively for cargo and is smaller than SpaceX's human-rated Crew Dragon spacecraft.

Agent loops are enabling teams to build at astonishing speeds. However, their use reduces developers to the role of merely a messenger. Looping is powerful, but it removes responsibility and encourages people to give in to the machine. While agent loops are likely going to be the future, it's important for developers to retain good judgment and ensure the rules of good engineering are kept.

Treating natural language as a specification language for engineering quietly caps what you can build. Prompt debt increases as additional guidance is added to instructions to nudge models into line. These prompts, full of edge cases and threats to the AI, become impossible to comprehend for teams. Prompt debt locks developers into older models, possibly making them miss potentially cheaper, faster, and better models.

Founders used to aim for the stars. iPhones, social networks, large language models, and cryptocurrency are the sort of non-linear increments that were either created by accident or in the process of trying to do the impossible or unprecedented. The non-linear option is now more impersonal and lower-risk than ever. This means people who have no personal reason to take risks and pursue a moonshot are more likely to try anyway.

NSA cybersecurity analysts were testing versions of Anthropic's tools when export controls were imposed on the company. The tests found that Mythos was able to identify cybersecurity flaws within the NSA's classified network quickly. Analysts were impressed with Mythos' capabilities in controlled test settings. There is an effort to push forward a classified contract between Anthropic and the NSA that would allow the agency to use the company's AI technology for a variety of purposes, but that contract has not been finalized.

Nvidia has created a lab where robot makers and customers can run safety tests before going to regulators to receive the necessary certifications. Engineers at the lab can help with pre-inspection work and engineering tweaks as needed. Robot safety design is much more complicated than safety design for autonomous vehicles, which generally just involves avoiding contact with people and other objects. Robots need to be able to know what things they can or can't touch, move, or exert force on.

It's a mistake to use AI to nitpick a few lines of code here and there. LLMs now catch high-severity vulnerabilities, so individual line reviews aren't needed. A human code reviewer's role is now to transfer knowledge to the AI that it doesn't know. This workflow is best in places where each line of code isn't sacred.

Software requires different levels of verification depending on its use case. Casual software has limited distribution and loose quality constraints. Business software needs to work, or organizations suffer losses. Acute software is mission-critical and merits the highest levels of scrutiny. The amount of permissible AI-slop decreases as the risks of the software failing increase.

Apple's industrial design organization used to be the heart and soul of the company. Today, the organization no longer has a true seat at Apple's executive table. It has become a place where other teams come to get what they need before promptly leaving. This article tells the story of the group's decline, its impact on the company, and Apple's plans to restore the design studio's prowess.

DNA doesn't do anything by itself. The information only becomes something when an enzyme unzips the helix and copies a stretch into messenger RNA, after which its instructions are decoded to create chains of amino acids. Similarly, the weights of a neural network don't mean anything on their own. They only become meaningful during the forward pass, activated during inference. In both cases, a passive informational substrate is brought to life only by a process outside of it.

Shinkei is a startup that makes a refrigerator-sized robot that scans fish with computer vision, identifies the species, locates the brain, then pierces the brain and severs the gills so the fish dies before it can thrash or suffocate. The system prevents the fish from experiencing a slow death, which floods the meat with stress hormones and lactic acid, dulling the flavor and shortening shelf life. The process delays decomposition long enough for the flesh to be safely aged for days or longer before it is served. The aging period gives top-tier sashimi its concentrated, umami-heavy flavor.

Agent Hooks allow developers to interject themselves into an agent's workflow while they are doing work rather than after the work is done. They can stop agents from ignoring rules. This means agents can be used for deterministic checks that work 100% of the time. This article discusses how to create two agent hooks: one that ensures agents never use an 'input' tag directly, and another that ensures agents never claim work is done while tests are still failing.

A well-supervised agent can offer dramatic speedups when paired with someone who cares about software, cares about the craft, and has specific goals they want to achieve. They can be used to significantly speed up the PR process. Agents can turn open issues into prompts, generate solutions, edit the output to meet standards for mergeability, and then commit as soon as it's ready, all on their own. This means issues can be fixed just hours after being identified.
