A few months ago, I spoke with Shaolei Ren, as associate professor of computer science at University of California, Riverside, and his team about their research into the secret water footprint of AI.

AutoResponder AI is an AI-powered email assistant that can help you save time and prevent your inbox from overflowing. It checks all your unread emails in Gmail, understands their sentiment, writes the replies for the ones that need a reply and saves them as drafts for you to finalize. When the drafts are ready, it will send you a notification by email or SMS...

Linear Attention variants optimize autoregressive modeling with kernel approximations and efficient normalization. Long-context models promise scalability, but few prove performance gains—Selective SSMs aim to bridge the gap.

SSMs integrate selection mechanisms and state expansion to outperform traditional RNNs in sequence modeling. Models like H3, RetNet, and RWKV refine AI efficiency for long-context data, surpassing RNN limitations.

Selection mechanisms refine AI’s approach to gating and hypernetworks, enabling structured state space models (SSMs) to handle long-context tasks more efficiently. Mamba leverages this innovation to outperform traditional models in sequence learning.

With vehicles becoming more software-defined, the need for higher quality and more automated security testing is evident.

We now discuss how our testing platform can enable a researcher to rapidly establish and experiment with numerous ECU networks to support their security research

In the context of this work, we define ECUs as production ECUs from the field, engineering samples, or even off-the-shelf automotive-grade microcontrollers

The designer, Marcio agrees that he is not a prototyper, that he is a shipper. With this reflective writing he agrees with the (big idea) from 37signals - that UX, UI, front-end development, copywriter, should be seen as one role. But he also reflects about how writing takes a specialist to become a generalist, a better thinker, a better designer, a better manager, a...

*Signals* are a new concept in Angular that plays well with reactive programming and templates. They can be used to create signals that are automatically destroyed when a component or service is destroyed. They are a way of solving the problem of memory leaks when integrating signals and RxJS. They work with asynchronisity in Angular so it’s easy to introduce memory leaks.

NAMLE specifically recognized The Markup for creating actionable journalism for the public good. In late 2022, we published an article describing how we approach impact in our newsroom, which centers on being clear and deliberate about who we want to “equip with the tools, knowledge, and agency to create change.”

A Michigan nuclear power plant is reopening as the U.S. continues looking to nuclear to solve the energy crisis. However, locals may have concerns, such as nuclear waste, radiation, or the possibility of a meltdown. While the risks are generally low, it may be wise to implement a buffer zone.

Multi-cloud strategies optimize performance but pose security and connectivity challenges. Experts like Arun Pandiyan Perumal use DevOps, automation, and AI to enhance reliability, observability, and security. Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) streamline cloud management. AI-driven self-healing systems could revolutionize multi-cloud operations.

Sugarverse secures $1 million to develop Web3 games with lasting economies, starting with Sugar Match on Tezos’ Etherlink in 2025.

Co-founder of HitBit Pro and Head of Pateplay Africa believes that Web3 is a revolution in emerging markets, allowing people to safely make payments and preserve capital.

Open Banking began as a response to the European Union’s PSD2 regulation, designed to increase competition and innovation in financial services. Open Banking enabled third-party providers to introduce new payment solutions, such as Pay-by-Bank. VRP is an Open Banking innovation designed to address these gaps by automating payments while maintaining transparency, security, and user control.

React: Flexible, library-focused approach. Great for projects that need customizable solutions. Vast ecosystem but requires additional libraries for routing and state management. Vue: Easy to learn, uses single-file components, and provides official plugins like Vue Router and Vuex/Pinia. Good for both small apps and larger-scale projects when structured carefully. Angular: A complete, TypeScript-based framework with built-in solutions for routing, form handling, and more. Ideal...

This tutorial demonstrates how to create a striking lightning text effect using HTML and CSS. By structuring the HTML with a container and child elements, and applying specific CSS properties like clip-path and position, you can simulate a lightning effect on text. The guide addresses common styling challenges, such as handling italic fonts and ensuring proper element positioning, providing solutions to maintain design integrity.

Have you ever been in the middle of an important task, only for your Mac to dim the screen or go to sleep at the worst possible moment?

The debate concerning the sustainability of the AI has become increasingly important. The training phase remains the biggest contributor to power consumption in AI systems. Pruning and self-optimization approaches are challenging in AI-optimized systems.
