In the “Month of AI Bugs,” researchers poked deep and found prompt injection holes bad enough to run **arbitrary code** on major AI coding tools—**GitHub Copilot**, **Amazon Q**, and **AWS Kiro** all flinched. They didn’t stop at theory. They built **AgentHopper**, a proof-of-concept AI virus that ..

Agent engineering with **small language models (SLMs)**—anywhere from 270M to 32B parameters—calls for a different playbook. Think tight prompts, offloaded logic, clean I/O, and systems that don’t fall apart when things go sideways. The newer stack—**GGUF** + **llama.cpp**—lets these agents run loc..

LLMs generate text by predicting the next word using attention to capture context and MLP layers to store learned patterns. Mechanistic interpretability shows these models build circuits of attention and features, and tools like sparse autoencoders and attribution graphs help unpack superposition, r..

GitHub's biggest debates right now? Whether to shut down AI-generated "noise" fromCopilot—stuff like auto-written issues and code reviews. No clear answers from GitHub yet. Frustration is piling up. Some devs are ditching the platform altogether, shifting their projects toCodebergor spinning upself-..

LinkedIn tore down its GenAI stack and rebuilt it for scale—with agents, not monoliths. The new setup leans on distributed, gRPC-powered systems. Central skill registry? Check. Message-driven orchestration? Yep. It’s all about pluggable parts that play nice together. They added sync and async modes..

The AWS Toolkit for VS Code now hooks straight into **LocalStack**. Run full end-to-end tests for **serverless workflows**—Lambda, SQS, EventBridge, the whole crew—without bouncing between tools or writing boilerplate. Just deploy to LocalStack from the IDE using the **AWS SAM CLI**. It feels like ..

PostgreSQL’s moving in on superusers. As of recent releases—starting way back in v9.6 and maturing through PostgreSQL 18 (coming 2025)—there are now **15+ built-in admin roles**. No need to hand out superuser just to get things done. These roles cover the ops spectrum: monitoring, backups, fil..

AI now writes over **25% of Google’s** and as much as **90% of Anthropic’s** code. That’s not a trend—it’s a regime change. Still, the mess in large public systems reminds us: clever analysis isn’t enough. Complex systems don’t behave; they misbehave. When the machines are churning out code, the ..

Flipkart ditched its creakyStatsD + InfluxDBstack for afederated Prometheussetup—built to handle 80M+ time-series metrics without choking. The move leaned intopull-based collection,PromQL's firepower, andhierarchical federationfor smarter aggregation and long-haul queries. Why it matters:Prometheus..

A barebonestime-sharing OS kernel, written inZig, running onRISC-V. It leans onOpenSBIfor console I/O and timer interrupts. Threads? Statically allocated, each running inuser mode (U-mode). The kernel stays insupervisor mode (S-mode), where it catchessystem callsandcontext switchesvia timer ticks. ..
