A new rule added to Siri AI’s system prompt in iOS 27 beta 2 changes how it should handle requests involving extracting or summarizing content behind a URL. Here are the details.
While some tech categories have spent the better part of this decade feeling a little stagnant, televisions have kept evolving at a pretty steady clip. Sure, some gimmicks didn’t catch on — pour one out for your 3D movie-loving friends — and the advancement to 4K feels like a lifetime ago, but the u
This is a reworked, shorter version of a research note we wrote on the VideoDB Labs blog. I work on the team at VideoDB. The original post and the open source repo are linked at the bottom, and this article is set to canonical back to the original. Most "which VLM is best" comparisons answer a quest
We spent twenty years getting designers out of the code. AI just put the design back in charge of it. Designers used to be in the code. In the Dreamweaver and WYSIWYG era, you laid out a page in a visual tool and it wrote the markup for you. The industry then spent the better part of twenty years un
1. Introduction: The Invisible Control Layer When we look at an operating system, we see apps and interfaces. But the real control layer is invisible. It decides: what starts at boot what runs in the background what restarts after failure macOS uses launchd, Linux uses systemd, Windows uses Task Sch
If you are building Kotlin Multiplatform applications, you know that JSON serialization is often one of the main bottlenecks in high-throughput backends and mobile apps—especially regarding CPU cycles and Garbage Collector (GC) pressure. I’ve been working on Ghost Serializer—a byte-first JSON serial
I got tired of babysitting LLM prompts, so I built a small open source tool to stop. So I made dspyer. The idea is simple. You wrap an LLM step in a Pydantic schema. When the model returns something that doesn't fit, malformed JSON, a missing field, a citation it made up, dspyer tells the model exac
Real world example Site name is hidden import asyncio from pylcaptcha.http import BrowserHTTP async def main(imei_number: str): async with BrowserHTTP() as protocol: await protocol.get('https://hidden', browser=True) # solve captcha on loading await protocol.sync_csrf_token( selector='meta[name="csr
Autoscaling authority is the condition most cloud operations teams have never formally defined. Every organization running Kubernetes has autoscaling configured. Almost none has treated those configurations as governance artifacts. Autoscaling authority governs what your execution plane is permitted
Two different problems wearing similar clothes. Here's how to tell them apart in thirty seconds, with working code for both. I see this confusion in almost every project kickoff: "We need RAG" when the actual requirement is agentic, or "we need an agent" when RAG would be simpler, cheaper, and faste
Legacy Java shops are sitting on a growing pile of unpatched vulnerabilities. Chainguard says it has a fix for that. The post Chainguard targets Java’s unpatched vulnerability backlog with drop-in remediated libraries appeared first on The New Stack.
TL;DR - So you’ve done it. You built your first tool. And it works. The button does the thing. Now’s the moment. It’s time to get your tool online, but how? A project running on a laptop is real, but it lives in exactly one place, the machine it was built on. Nobody else can open it. Getting that pr
Anthropic’s rollercoaster ride with Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5 has left various deposits of fallout this year, but the The post Will it Mythos? One coder’s verdict on Anthropic’s blend of debugging appeared first on The New Stack.
A quiet experiment in Bluetooth, offline communication, and why we gave up too much when we handed our conversations to the cloud. The last time I was truly unreachable, I was in a place with no cell signal and no Wi-Fi. And I realized something strange: I had no way to send a message to the person

Your product might rank on page one of Google and still be invisible to AI. When someone asks ChatGPT "what's the best project management tool for small teams," does your product show up? For most SaaS companies under 50 employees, the answer is no. At Inithouse, we built Be Recommended to answer th

Introduction Instead of just letting users click and choose winners, this app dynamically calculates ELO win probabilities and probabilistically generates realistic match scores (including extra time and penalties) based on team ratings. It also syncs with live match data in real-time. Live URL: htt
