Norway will reportedly ban young kids from using AI in schools.
Fusion startups have raised $7.1 billion to date, with the majority of it going to a handful of companies.
Why Studying Open Source Code Is Important Reading open-source frameworks teaches things that textbooks usually cannot. For example, from AsyncTask we learn: real-world concurrency design serialization strategies thread scheduling producer-consumer patterns executor frameworks synchronization tradeoffs Theory vs Reality A textbook may say: "synchronized prevents race conditions" But Android source code shows: Why do engineers use synchronization WHERE they used it WHAT problem they were solving WHAT tradeoffs they accepted That is real engineering knowledge. Why Great Engineers Read Source Code Engineers who study frameworks like: OpenJDK Android Linux kernel OpenFOAM FreeCAD develop: architectural thinking systems intuition debugging maturity performance awareness concurrency understanding far beyond ordinary programming. What You Are Actually Learning Here My small example contains concepts from: JVM monitor implementation object lifetime static memory model synchronization semantics concurrent scheduling executor design Android framework architecture This is exactly why studying framework source code is powerful. You stop seeing programming as: "writing syntax" and begin seeing it as: "designing systems" That transition is what separates an average coder from a strong software engineer. submitted by /u/sommukhopadhyay [link] [留言]
Bobby Prince, composer for Doom and other classic shooters, has died.
I couldn't find a simple way to explore the Brazilian startup ecosystem geographically, as I can in other places like the Bay Area or London, so I built one. The map currently includes hundreds of startups from Sao Paulo and their job opportunities. The most interesting thing I've learned so far is how clustered startup activity is in a handful of areas. I'd love to hear your thoughts. The EN version: https://www.startupsbr.com/sao-paulo
Just as last week was ending, the US government forced Anthropic to pull its two newest models, Fable 5 and Mythos 5, citing national security concerns after Amazon researchers allegedly found a way to bypass Fable 5’s guardrails. Cybersecurity researchers have since signed an open letter calling the move dangerous, and Anthropic itself noted the same jailbreaks exist in other models. So is […]
Qubot, our internal Copilot-powered analytics agent, allows any GitHub employee to ask questions about our data in plain language. Here's what we learned as we built it. The post How we built an internal data analytics agent appeared first on The GitHub Blog .
