This is pretty awesome, a huge step towards democratising GPU programming.

GPU code can now use Rust's standard library. We share the implementation approach and what this unlocks for GPU programming.

From authors of "We heard you wanted Copilot Mode at Work":

- Manage my emails.
- No, but I sure can rap 😎
"Kate, you should use AI to handle your terrible email inbox!"
Microsoft Copilot: "Sorry, it looks like I can’t respond to this. Let’s try a different topic. Suggestions: Write a rap song. Show me some cool facts. Teach me a new word!"

Trump is now confusing Greenland and Iceland: "They're not there for us on Iceland, that I can tell you. Our stock market took the first dip yesterday because of Iceland. So Iceland has already cost us a lot of money."

This is great - it's about time someone updated the discourse on LLM energy usage to reflect that coding agents use massively more prompts than occasional questions to ChatGPT

Simon estimates that a day of coding agent usage comes out close to the energy needed to run a dishwasher
Whenever I read discourse on AI energy/water use that focuses on the "median query," I can't help but feel misled. Coding agents like Claude Code send hundreds of longer-than-median queries every session, and I run dozens of sessions a day.

I do not see how you can argue that nuclear deterrence doesn't work when you live in a country whose government and allies have spent almost 4 years being very publicly deterred by Russian nuclear weapons

Not sure I have ever seen this color of aurora before - literally pure blue and indigo. This is happening now over central Canada in Rabbit Lake, SK.

The camera is accessible and linked on my webcam list: go.theauroraguy.com/webcams

Ukraine's SBU just released a massive compilation of its medium-range attack drones destroying Russian air defense systems.

The unit reportedly did over $4 billion in damage to Russian radars and SAM systems last year.

"Copilot mistake" 😂
UK police have blamed Microsoft Copilot for an intelligence mistake. Microsoft's Copilot AI assistant made up a non-existent football match and British police included the mistake in an intelligence report. Yikes. Details on the Copilot mistake here👇 www.theverge.com/news/861668/...
