In a first, Google has released data on how much energy an AI prompt uses

Google dropped detailed stats on energy, water, and carbon use per query for its Gemini models. Median energy:0.24 Wh, with TPUs eating58%of that. They’re claiming a33× efficiency boostin the last year—credit goes to model and software tuning. System shift:A public hyperscaler posting this means th.. read more

AI Models Need a Virtual Machine

Microsoft and academic researchers want to give AI models a new kind of home: theAI Model Virtual Machine (MVM). Think of it like theJVM, but for LLMs—an interface layer that standardizes how models plug into host software. The MVM enforcessecurity,isolation, andtool-calling rules, while also unloc.. read more

Zero-Click Remote Code Execution: Exploiting MCP & Agentic IDEs

A zero-click exploit is making the rounds—nasty stuff targeting agentic IDEs likeCursor. The trick? Slip a malicious Google Doc into the system. If MCP integration and allow-listedPython executionare on, the document gets auto-pulled, parsed, and runs code. No clicks. No prompts. Justremote code exe.. read more  

Zero-Click Remote Code Execution: Exploiting MCP & Agentic IDEs
Lustre is an open-source, parallel distributed file system built for high-performance computing environments that require extremely fast, large-scale data access. Designed to serve thousands of compute nodes concurrently, Lustre enables HPC clusters to read and write data at multi-terabyte-per-second speeds while maintaining low latency and fault tolerance.

A Lustre deployment separates metadata and file data into distinct services—Metadata Servers (MDS) handling namespace operations and Object Storage Servers (OSS) serving file contents stored across multiple Object Storage Targets (OSTs). This architecture allows clients to access data in parallel, achieving performance far beyond traditional network file systems.

Widely adopted in scientific computing, supercomputing centers, weather modeling, genomics, and large-scale AI training, Lustre remains a foundational component of modern HPC stacks. It integrates with resource managers like Slurm, supports POSIX semantics, and is designed to scale from small clusters to some of the world’s fastest supercomputers.

With strong community and enterprise support, Lustre provides a mature, battle-tested solution for workloads that demand extreme I/O performance, massive concurrency, and petabyte-scale distributed storage.
