France's CNIL has fined Hôpital privé de la Loire €500,000, a year after the data of 524,867 patients was exfiltrated. The ruling describes basic failures: no VPN, no two-factor authentication, no monitoring of access.
OpenAI shipped GPT-6 Astra on 3 September 2026 with a near-perfect ARC-AGI 3 score. Measured on the benchmark's own standard harness, the same model drops to 62.7% — and costs more.
A patch series from Intel heading into Linux 7.4 wakes up Content Match Refresh Rate after nearly two years switched off. It promises stutter-free video playback — just not on the machines that introduced it.
CERN is moving all 2,200 of its industrial computers from Red Hat to Debian 13 before the end of the year. The reason isn't the price of a support contract — it's a compiler flag.
At IFA on 3 September 2026, Lenovo showed a 14-inch concept laptop under 10 mm thick and 830 grams, with not a single fan inside. The technology that makes it possible has been touring trade shows for years without ever breaking through.
On 2 September 2026, an LLVM developer proposed hosting an AGENTS.md file in the project's repository. The replies are split, and what they say reaches well beyond LLVM.
Nvidia announced on Thursday that it is buying Hugging Face for $13 billion, its largest acquisition to date. The reference catalogue for open models would pass under the control of the company selling the GPUs to run them.
On the morning of Thursday, September 3, all four major AI assistants stumbled inside the same few-hour window. Rare enough that you go hunting for the common supplier — except none of them ever declared an outage.
The author of Babylonian Twins had a model port the 72,758 lines of 68000 assembly behind his 1993 Amiga game to Godot. The machine read the code; a human still had to say whether the jump felt right.
Models, agents, tools and uses — and the often generous gap between the demo and the promise.
Languages, frameworks, tooling, practices, and the regular dramas of open source.
Systems, apps, licences, and those terms of service nobody reads.
Chips, machines, GPUs, datacenters — and the electricity bill that follows.
Flaws, leaks, attacks and regulation. The one section where we do not joke.
