It's simpler than it sounds: 1. Notice that the project includes a 22k dependency called cpuinfo 2. Prove that the only feature used from cpuinfo is the one to check the CPU brand name 3. Code a C function that reads the CPU brand name in 51 lines (it could be shorter) 4. Done

HUBSPOT CUTS NEARLY 660 JOBS 7% of staff. CEO Yamini Rangan told employees it is "not driven by AI-related efficiencies" and "not simply a cost-cutting exercise." The same filing books $65M to $75M in severance charges and reaffirms 2026 guidance. Stock down 45% this year. $HUBS

I got hacked at 3:59 AM without clicking anything. My voicemail handed the attacker my Telegram login code. Here is exactly how it worked, so it doesn't happen to you. 3:54 AM. My phone rings about ten times in a row, No Caller ID. That was not harassment. It was the attack: keep my line busy. Meanwhile, the attacker asks Telegram to log in with my number and picks "send the code by phone call". My line is busy, so Telegram's robot call lands on my voicemail and reads the code out loud to it. Carrier voicemail can often be reached remotely, with a default PIN or a spoofed caller ID. He listens to the message. At 3:59 he is in. Fortunately, the attack was noisy. The calls woke me up. At 4 AM I only wanted to go back to sleep, but I had the presence of mind to check my notifications. Telegram was showing a new login from a device I didn't know. That check is what saved me: I ended his session within minutes. If I had rolled over, the next day would have been a mess. In those few minutes he had already typed /balance, then /start on every old wallet bot he could find in my chats. He was hunting for funds tied to my Telegram. The bots were long dead and nothing was lost. He still had time to set his own 2FA password on my account. What would have stopped it: Telegram two-step verification, with a recovery email. With a password on the account, the code alone is useless. Your voicemail. Change the PIN, block remote access, or turn it off (##002# cancels call forwarding on most carriers). Same for WhatsApp and any service that can send a code by voice call. No seeds, keys or passwords in Saved Messages. Ever. A burst of masked calls at night is a signal, not a nuisance. Check your notifications and your active sessions. I have been building in crypto for more than ten years and I had never thought about my voicemail. Check yours today.

Cloudflare is building its own Certificate Authority to give websites free SSL/TLS certificates. It has applied to be trusted by Chrome, Apple, Microsoft and Mozilla, and is acquiring an existing trusted root from GlobalSign. This would let Cloudflare issue the TLS certificates websites use to prove their identity and establish HTTPS connections. And starting in 2027, it plans to issue post-quantum certificates too. Cloudflare is now moving into the trust infrastructure behind HTTPS itself. Source: blog.cloudflare.com/cloudfla…

I've never had THIS much fun building, Opus 5.5 is so fun. Excalidraw directly in the office, and an elevator to take you to your other projects. Don't forget to pet the dog.

AHAH HAHAHAH COPILOT OS HAHAHAHAHA WHAT THE FUCK SATYA YOU FUCKING DOOFUS HAHAHAHAHAHA
We’re building Copilot as a new OS for work that spans every model, every form factor, and every task. Today, we’re announcing our biggest update to Copilot to date, bringing four things together: · Autopilot: proactive and long-running agent built for the enterprise · Code: build apps with Copilot, hosted inside your company’s tenant · Home: Chat + Cowork together · Office: now fully embedded in Copilot (and Copilot embedded in Office, of course!) Plus, you can invoke Copilot in Teams, and we’re introducing Today, a proactive experience that surfaces the most important information from across M365 without needing to ask for it. The way we work is changing and so are our workflows. This update brings AI into that flow, from answering a question, to building an app, to getting work done on your behalf.

I agree with Anthropic on this. This model is way too powerful to be turned to war. They have Grok. We need answers, we need cures, we need longevity and benefits to humanity from this technology. The government acting like this is only going to get Anthropic more support.
