Amazon WorkSpaces now lets AI agents securely operate legacy desktop applications—without APIs or modernization—using IAM authentication, MCP support, and computer vision within existing security frameworks.
How the cloud changes the way we build applications, and why engineers’ ethical choices matter more than ever. Excerpt from the book, ‘Designing Data-Intensive Applications’, 2nd edition
The open web is a critical platform for applications that handle highly sensitive data, from private communications to financial transactions and medical records. Traditionally, servers are trusted to deliver the appropriate code and resources for their web applications to browsers, who then provide a secure and isolated environment for their execution. In some circumstances, this […] The post Trustworthy JavaScript for the Open Web appeared first on Mozilla Hacks - the Web developer blog .

Presented AI Ethics Recommendations for Geoscientists at the European Geosciences Union (EGU) in Vienna yesterday. At around 20,000 attendees, the European Geosciences Union (EGU) is a huge event with researchers world-wide attending. As well as geology and the geological sciences in general, the conference covers hydrology, biogeosciences, remote sensing, oceanography, planetary, earth, space and atmospheric... Continue Reading →
Excerpt By 2024, Slack’s data platform had accumulated 700+ SSH-based operators orchestrating critical data pipelines. We’re talking daily search indexing that processed terabytes of data, analytics jobs powering business intelligence, the whole shebang. Every single one of these jobs required direct SSH access to production AWS Elastic MapReduce (EMR) clusters. We had a massive security…
Porosity and permeability prediction from petrographic point-counting data using machine learning. A new study from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology has demonstrated that machine learning can accurately predict porosity and permeability in reservoirs using microscopic rock descriptions from samples. The researchers (Sadrikhanloo et al., 2026) trained models on petrographic point-counting data, mineral-by-mineral descriptions of rock composition that... Continue Reading →
Open-source data: A Global-Scale Time Series Dataset for Groundwater Studies within the Earth System. Paper out this week in Nature from Bäthge et al (2026), introduces GROW (Global-scale integrated GROundWater dataset), a large, standardised, analysis-ready dataset designed to improve understanding of groundwater dynamics within the Earth system. Groundwater is critical (~99% of accessible freshwater), but... Continue Reading →
Machine learning for sustainable geoenergy: uncertainty, physics and decision-ready inference. Interesting paper this week from Menke et al (2026) at the Institute of GeoEnergy Engineering, and Subsurface Energy Transition and Innovation Centre, Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh, UK. Abstract:Geoenergy projects (CO2 storage, geothermal, subsurface H2 generation/storage, critical minerals from subsurface fluids, or nuclear waste disposal) increasingly follow a petroleum-style...

OpenAI introduces MRC (Multipath Reliable Connection), a new supercomputer networking protocol released via OCP to improve resilience and performance in large-scale AI training clusters.
Want to build your own custom AI tools and automations, but don’t have coding or developer experience? Curious how Claude Code can help? In this article, you'll discover how to set up Claude Code from scratch and build your first automation today. Why Use Claude Code? The biggest misconception about AI coding tools is that […] The post Claude Code for Everyone: How to Get Started appeared first on Social Media Examiner .
First week of Musk v. Altman, OpenAI ends Microsoft legal peril over its $50B Amazon deal, DeepSeek previews new AI model that ‘closes the gap’ with frontier models, and more!
Design always starts with function — function shapes form. But if that function can’t be made completely invisible and people still have to interact with it, it inevitably becomes part of their experience. In this article, Kyrylo Levashov shares four common software design assumptions.
You can now access Observability Plus metrics in the Vercel CLI. Query observability data for any Vercel team or project using the new vercel metrics command. Coding agents can also leverage this new command to better analyze the performance, reliability, or security of applications on Vercel, as well as debug issues. This feature is available in public beta for all teams with Observability Plus. Learn more about vercel metrics . Read more
Both Supabase Realtime and Supabase ETL read changes from your Postgres database using logical replication. But they solve very different problems. Here is how to pick the right one.
Associate Professor Dwai Banerjee’s new book examines the visionaries who wanted to turn India into a world power at making computers.
Two years ago, Colin Angle stepped down as CEO of iRobot , the company that he cofounded and the most successful home robot company the world has ever seen. Angle almost immediately founded a stealthy new “physical AI” company called Familiar Machines & Magic (FM&M), which in short order managed to attract a combination of exceptionally talented robotics folks, including Morgan Pope from Disney Research , which got us very curious. Today, Familiar Machines & Magic is announcing its first robot,
Last week, I took some time off in York, England, often described as the most haunted city in the country. I wandered through the ruins of abbeys that have stood for nearly a thousand years, walked along medieval walls, and spent an evening on a ghost tour hearing stories passed down through centuries. There’s something […]

Today we’re open sourcing deepsec : a security harness powered by coding agents. It runs on your own infrastructure and surfaces hard-to-find issues in large codebases. You can run deepsec on your laptop without setting up a cloud service for privileged source code access. For inference, you can use your existing Claude or Codex subscription without any additional setup. Scanning large repos can take multiple days on a single machine. To run research jobs in parallel, deepsec supports optional f
A while back I decided to stop using Tailwind for new projects and to just write vanilla CSS instead. But one thing I missed about Tailwind was the colour palette (here as CSS). If I wanted a light blue I could just use blue-100 and if I didn’t like it maybe try blue-200 or blue-50. I’m not very good with colours so it makes a big difference to me to have a reasonable colour palette that somebody who is better at colour than me has thought about. But I’m also a little tired of
How OpenAI rebuilt its WebRTC stack to power real-time Voice AI with low latency, global scale, and seamless conversational turn-taking.
