▸ • OpenAI adds a plugin marketplace to Codex, targeting enterprise IT and taking a swing at Claude Code.
▸ • CERN is burning tiny AI models directly into silicon to filter the Large Hadron Collider's massive data firehose.
▸ • SoftBank secures a $40B loan, fueling rumors of a blockbuster OpenAI IPO later this year.
OpenAI just shipped Codex CLI v0.117.0, complete with a built-in plugin marketplace. It launches with integrations for Slack, Notion, Figma, Gmail, and Google Drive, giving enterprise IT admins the power to standardize (or block) agent behaviors across their engineering teams.
Wall Street giants JPMorgan and Goldman Sachs are extending a massive 12-month, unsecured loan to SoftBank. The move is widely seen as a precursor to a blockbuster OpenAI IPO later this year.
Just four months after its last raise, robotics AI startup Physical Intelligence is reportedly in talks to raise another $1 billion. The deal would effectively double the company's valuation to $5.6 billion.
Oppo has once again made the best foldable phone on the market. The Find N6 is as thin as a regular phone when closed, proving that you don't have to compromise on form factor to get a folding screen.
The Large Hadron Collider generates 40,000 exabytes of raw data annually—about a quarter of the entire internet. To filter this firehose in real-time, CERN is bypassing traditional GPUs and literally burning custom, tiny AI models directly into silicon ASICs.
A hilarious but deeply technical dive into the quirks of macOS window management and UI inconsistencies. It's a cathartic read for anyone who has ever fought with Apple's operating system and wondered why things just don't work the way they should.
Sourcegraph dives into the future of SCIP (SCIP Code Intelligence Protocol). It's a fascinating look at how we index and understand massive codebases, and where the tooling is heading next as AI becomes more integrated into our editors.
People are already wiping their home directories by giving AI agents too much access. Stanford researchers have released `jai`, a lightweight containment tool for Linux that gives agents access to your working directory while protecting the rest of your system.
Velxio 2.0 just dropped, allowing you to emulate Arduino, ESP32, and Raspberry Pi 3 directly in your web browser. It's a massive leap forward for accessible hardware development and testing without needing the physical boards.
Cocoa-Way is a new native macOS Wayland compositor designed to run Linux applications seamlessly on Apple Silicon. It's an impressive piece of engineering bridging the gap between Linux GUI apps and macOS.
Someone revived the classic 'Twitch Roulette' concept, allowing you to randomly drop into streams with zero viewers. It's the perfect way to make a lonely gamer's day or witness something truly inexplicable.
Over three decades later, someone has figured out how to play the classic FPS Wolfenstein 3D with just one hand. It's a historical curiosity with more than a few rough edges, but a fun weekend project nonetheless.
