Read this article on Signadot. Long-running and background coding agents have hit a new threshold. When an agent runs for hours, manages its own iteration loop, and submits a pull request without hand-holding, it stops being a tool you invoke and starts being more like a worker you assign tasks to. Like any worker, the […]

Hey LLM folks 👋 Whether you're shipping with Ollama on a Mac, vllm on 8× H100, or anything in between — model planning shouldn't be napkin math. I built a free calculator: WeightRoom. → https://smelukov.github.io/WeightRoom/ No backend, no signup, no telemetry. Pick a model, pick a quant, pick a context window — get RAM, disk […]

Most startups approach the SRE vs DevOps question wrong. They ask "which is better?" when the real question is "which do I need right now and in what order?" After seeing this play out across a lot of engineering teams, the mistake is almost always the same: hiring the wrong role at the wrong stage. […]

Monday’s recap shows the same pattern in different places. A third-party tool becomes a way in, then leads to internal access. A trusted download path is briefly swapped to deliver malware. Browser extensions act normally while pulling data and running code. Even update channels are used to push payloads. It’s not breaking systems—it’s bending trust. […]

The fastest way to fall in love with an AI tool is to watch the demo. Everything moves quickly. Prompts land cleanly. The system produces impressive outputs in seconds. It feels like the beginning of a new era for your team. But most AI initiatives don't fail because of bad technology. They stall because what […]

Cybersecurity researchers have discovered a critical "by design" weakness in the Model Context Protocol's (MCP) architecture that could pave the way for remote code execution and have a cascading effect on the artificial intelligence (AI) supply chain. "This flaw enables Arbitrary Command Execution (RCE) on any system running a vulnerable MCP implementation, granting attackers direct […]

Cybersecurity researchers have flagged a new malware called ZionSiphon that appears to be specifically designed to target Israeli water treatment and desalination systems. The malware has been codenamed ZionSiphon by Darktrace, highlighting its ability to set up persistence, tamper with local configuration files, and scan for operational technology (OT)-relevant services on the local subnet.

Web infrastructure provider Vercel has disclosed a security breach that allows bad actors to gain unauthorized access to "certain" internal Vercel systems. The incident stemmed from the compromise of Context.ai, a third-party artificial intelligence (AI) tool, that was used by an employee at the company. "The attacker used that access to take over the employee's […]
