To anyone listening closely to what Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella has been saying over the past couple of years, this week felt like the clearest sign yet that AI is about to fundamentally change the size of Microsoft's workforce. Microsoft is now offering voluntary buyouts to around 60,000 employees across the US, UK, Canada, and […]
A flaw in the Linux kernel's TCP code, tracked as CVE-2026-98432, affects Ubuntu, Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), and other Linux distributions. The kernel's own CVE team rates it 9.8 out of 10 on the CVSS scale. Anthropic said on October 27 that its AI model wrote an exploit that uses the flaw to let a remote attacker with no credentials run commands as root on Linux servers with a
Hi HN, we're Ahnaf and Seungmin from Simantic ( https://simantic.com ). We are building the simulation layer that lets engineers and AI agents test and validate firmware without hardware. Before Simantic, we were ex-firmware engineers at companies like Neuralink and Tesla. We’ve worked on some of the coolest projects, like the Cybertruck and Roadster, back when they were still early prototypes. We started working on firmware back when ChatGPT didn’t exist yet, but over the years, we saw how much

Mistral has released the weights for Large 4, aka "Le Chonk," a trillion-parameter model trained entirely in Europe. Mistral says it beats its open rivals at coding, and independent testing shows it's fast and fairly cheap. It still can't match China's top models, scoring 26 points to the 32 posted by DeepSeek V4.1 Flash and GLM-5.3. The article Paris-based Mistral releases "Le Chonk," a strong coding model that still trails China overall appeared first on The Decoder .
Hi, As I am coding day in day out using Opus, I was wondering if people here had a view on the effect of input style on the quality of the agent's production? Like if I treat the agent like shit, with a great deal of pressure and shaming, does it perform differently than if I treat him with the utmost deference and calm? And if so, which should I be using? I am usually talking nice to my agent, because I am worried that if I trash talk it all day long, it's going to become a habit and I am going
Threat actors are delivering malicious loaders and cryptocurrency miners under the guise of artificial intelligence (AI) desktop applications for Anthropic Claude and OpenAI ChatGPT as part of a campaign dubbed Yoba.

I've been fine tuning my own decision models lately and I've been interested in how there are no real multi-turn harnesses out there for decision models. I decided to build my own. The standard claude code style interface doesn't quite make sense with a decision model since it isn't a conversation so I built this out as a sort-of REPL inspired interface. You can also use it with the command line. You just type facts as you get them and ask questions with a ?. The questions stick around so every
