Your employees connect AI writing tools, meeting assistants, browser extensions, and automation agents to inboxes, drives, calendars, CRMs, and code repositories faster than any security team can review them. Each click of an “Allow” button creates a standing trust relationship, and the relationship can outlive the task, the user, and sometimes the vendor’s security posture. Your OAuth inventory is now part of your attack surface. The good news: you can audit it, and the first pass rarely takes as long as you fear. Why an OAuth Grant Is a Persistent Liability, Not a One-Time Click OAuth solved a genuine problem.…
Entrance to the Port of Tyne The UK government has appointed the Marine Management Organisation (MMO) as Lead Environmental Regulator for the Port of Tyne’s proposed £175 million Clean Energy Park, in a move intended to accelerate approvals for a major offshore wind and clean energy development in North East England.1 The designation gives the MMO responsibility for coordinating advice from environmental regulators including the Environment Agency and Natural England, creating a single point of contact for the project while maintaining existing environmental protections.2 The proposed development would transform a 230-acre brownfield site on the north bank of the River…
If you want a snack, Matty Benedetto of Unnecessary Inventions thinks you should have to earn it. To fight the temptation to gobble down treats without doing some work first, he built a lock box that can only be opened after the owner takes a certain number of steps. The idea is that you put your snack inside, then dial in the number of steps you need to take to burn all of the calories it contains. After all of the steps have been taken, the door pops open.The internal hardware (📷: Matty Benedetto)The lock box is built into a…
TL;DR A previously rumored green variant of the Sony WH-1000XM6 has been listed by a Chilean retailer. The new colorway hasn’t been officially announced and is not yet available for purchase. This would be the third additional XM6 colorway Sony has introduced since the headphones launched last year. It looks like the best headphones for most people are getting another snazzy new finish soon: Sony’s WH-1000XM6 headphones have been listed by a Chilean department store in a previously unseen colorway.Sony launched its XM6 headphones in three colorways — Black, Midnight Blue, and Platinum Silver — in May last year. The…
A PhD student in Sydney has produced cosmic dust from scratch by recreating a small piece of the universe inside a laboratory bottle. The experiment offers new clues about how some of the chemical ingredients associated with life could have developed before Earth even formed. Linda Losurdo, a PhD candidate in materials and plasma physics in the School of Physics, combined nitrogen, carbon dioxide and acetylene to simulate the energetic conditions found near stars and supernova remnants. She then exposed the gases to a powerful electrical charge. The process created carbon-rich dust resembling material that floats through interstellar space and…
OpenAI is selling its first hardware — without any help from Jony Ive. It describes the Codex Micro as a “command center for agentic work” but it’s really a 13-switch wireless keyboard customized to help developers keep tabs on what their Codex agents are doing. It costs $230. The keyboard has 13 mechanical switches (one keycap covers two of them by default), a rotary encoder, joystick, and RGB backlighting around the whole keypad and individual keys. It comes with 32 customizable icon keycaps. OpenAI claims that the Codex Micro is a serious business tool: The command keys enable Codex users…
We’re gearing up for the Platform Global conference in Antibes on September 8-10, 2026—an event attended by senior leaders in digital infrastructure and data centers. Much as this event is a converging point for network and data center experts, the wider Mediterranean region where our beautiful host city sits is a converging point for communications ecosystems. While cities throughout the Mediterranean from Barcelona to Genoa have seen growth in network investment, no city in this region compares with what Marseille has accomplished.
We are happy to announce that luz version 0.3.0 is now on CRAN. This release brings a few improvements to the learning rate finder first contributed by Chris McMaster. As we didn’t have a 0.2.0 release post, we will also highlight a few improvements that date back to that version. What’s luz? Since it is relatively new package, we are starting this blog post with a quick recap of how luz works. If you already know what luz is, feel free to move on to the next section. luz is a high-level API for torch that aims to encapsulate the…
If you’ve spent any time on GitHub Trending this month, you’ve probably noticed a pattern: it isn’t research papers turning into repositories anymore, it’s agents. Coding agents, pentesting agents, trading agents, and the infrastructure that ties them all together. We tracked star growth, momentum, and real-world impact to identify the ten repositories that mattered most this month. Rather than ranking projects by stars alone, we considered both their influence on the AI ecosystem and how quickly they’re gaining traction. In this article, we’ll break down each repository, what it does, why it’s trending, and why it’s worth adding to your…
On July 13, 2006, we launched Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS) as one of the first three services available to customers, alongside Amazon EC2 and Amazon S3. We had learned firsthand that distributed systems need a reliable way to pass messages between components without creating tight dependencies. If one service called another directly and that service was slow or unavailable, failures cascaded through the entire system. Message queuing solved this by letting services communicate asynchronously: a producer could drop a message into a queue and move on, while a consumer picked it up when ready. This approach kept individual…
