Despite 71% claiming AI aligns with business goals, only 31% have metrics tied to business KPIs. 71% of organizations with data governance programs report high trust in their data, compared to just 50% without governance programs.…

GitHub has launched a technical preview of the GitHub Copilot SDK, a tool kit for embedding the “agentic core” of the GitHub Copilot CLI into applications. Available on GitHub, the SDK was unveiled on January 22. Initially available for Node.js/TypeScript, Python, Go, and .NET, the GitHub Copilot SDK exposes the same engine behind the GitHub Copilot CLI, a production-tested agent runtime that can be invoked programmatically. There is no need to build orchestration, according GitHub. Users define agent behavior, and Copilot handles planning, tool invocation, file edits, and more, according to GitHub. A GitHub Copilot subscription is required to use…

Posted by Dave Kleidermacher, VP Engineering, Android Security & Privacy Today marks a watershed moment and new benchmark for open-source security and the future of consumer electronics. Google is proud to announce that protected KVM (pKVM), the hypervisor that powers the Android Virtualization Framework, has officially achieved SESIP Level 5 certification. This makes pKVM the first software security system designed for large-scale deployment in consumer electronics to meet this assurance bar. Supporting Next-Gen Android Features The implications for the future of secure mobile technology are profound. With this level of security assurance, Android is now positioned to securely support the…

Photo by: Province of British Columbia, CC BY-NC-ND 2.0, via Flickr VICTORIA — Evan Pivnick, clean energy program manager at Clean Energy Canada, made the following statement in response to B.C.’s 2025 Climate Change Accountability Report. “B.C.’s new Climate Change Accountability Report shows both real progress being made and rightly acknowledges there is more work to do. In particular, emissions in the province declined in 2023 by 4% compared to 2022, with per capita emissions falling even further. “Indeed, we now have a long enough historical view to see the efficacy of meaningful climate policy. Per capita climate pollution has…

SwiftData migrations are one of those things that feel optional… right until you ship an update and real users upgrade with real data on disk.In this post we’ll dig into:How to implement schema versions with VersionedSchemaWhen you should introduce new schema versionsWhen SwiftData can migrate automatically and when you’ll have to write manual migrations with SchemaMigrationPlan and MigrationStageHow to handle extra complex migrations where you need “bridge” versionsBy the end of this post you should have a pretty solid understanding of SwiftData’s migration rules, possibilities, and limitations. More importantly: you’ll know how to keep your migration work proportional. Not every…

Pentesting is cool, because it provides all of the fun and challenge of hacking, without any of those pesky ethical concerns. But as sophisticated as some attacks can be, the most effective attacks are often the tried-and-true methods that have been around for decades… just with some updates. That’s why you may be interested in the Diabolic Parasite Wi-Fi-enabled keystroke injector and keylogger.Keystroke injection and keylogging are positively ancient attacks. Keystroke injection works by automatically typing out a series of keystrokes to perform some activity, like opening a shell and uploading an important file to a remote server. Keylogging is…

Apple’s dispute with the Competition Commission of India (CCI) seems to be heating up ahead of next week’s hearing. Here are the details. Apple asks court to prevent the ICC from getting global turnover documents Last week, Reuters reported that India’s competition watchdog had issued a final warning to Apple regarding delays in a years-long App Store antitrust investigation that could potentially result in a $38 billion fine. That potential $38 billion fine is notable because it would be calculated on Apple’s global turnover, as allowed by the country’s Competition (Amendment) Act from 2023. Apple argues that it shouldn’t be…

Many common products, including plastics and detergents, rely on chemical reactions that depend on catalysts made from precious metals such as platinum. These metals are effective but costly and limited in supply. For years, scientists have been searching for alternatives that are cheaper and more sustainable. One promising option is tungsten carbide, an Earth-abundant material already widely used in industrial machinery, cutting tools, and chisels. Despite its potential, tungsten carbide has not been easy to use as a catalyst. Its chemical behavior can be unpredictable, which has restricted its broader adoption. Researchers led by Marc Porosoff, an associate professor in…

Anthropic report on how their AI is changing their own software development practice.

Rather than just hear people gush about how wonderful it…

Package management sits at the foundation of modern software development, quietly powering nearly every software project in the world. Tools like npm and Yarn have long been the core of the JavaScript ecosystem, enabling developers to install, update, and share code with ease. But as projects grow larger and the ecosystem more complex, this older infrastructure is beginning to show its limits with performance bottlenecks, dependency conflicts, and growing concerns around supply chain security. Darcy Clarke and Ruy Adorno are veterans of this ecosystem. Both spent years maintaining the npm CLI and helping guide the Node.js project, where they saw…
