DeepSeek-OCRflips the OCR script. Instead of feeding full image tokens to the decoder, it leans on an encoder to compress them up front, trimming down input size and GPU strain in one move. That context diet? It opens the door for way bigger windows in LLMs. Why it matters:Shoving compression earlie.. read more

You can chain prompts, preview apps, and feed it text, voice, or images, without touching code. They also dropped theGemini 3 Flash model, built for dual rea.. read more  

AI coding agents are eating the lunch of low-complexity SaaS. Teams with a bit of dev muscle are skipping subscription logins and spinning up dashboards, pipelines, even decks, using Claude, Gemini, whoever’s fastest that day. Build vs. buy? Tilting back toward build. The kicker: build now takes min.. read more  

Airbnb just rewired Mussel, its key-value store, with a smarter, layered QoS system. Out go the rigid QPS caps. In comeresource-aware rate control,criticality-based load shedding, andreal-time hot-key mitigation. Dispatchers now speak the language of backend cost -rows, bytes, latency - not just raw.. read more  

A sandboxed setup dropped multiple Claude-powered agents into Docker containers to run a full incident response drill. Each agent played a role: probing Kubernetes clusters, sniffing out root causes, and shipping remediation PRs straight to GitHub. Out of 7 test incidents, they nailed the diagnoses .. read more

Refinery 3.0 cuts CPU by 70% and slashes RAM by 60%. The trick: selective field extraction from serialized spans. No full deserialization. Fewer heap allocations. Way less waste. It also recycles buffers, handles metrics smarter, and is gearing up to parallelize its core decision loop... read more
