Latest articles on AI, technology, and software development.
The AI boom has created an unprecedented demand for electricity that is straining power grids, reviving nuclear plants, and reshaping energy markets in ways that will outlast any individual AI model. The numbers are extraordinary — and the industry's responses reveal deep tensions between speed and sustainability.
WebAssembly launched as a way to run near-native code in browsers. In 2026, it's running at the edge, inside databases, as a plugin system in dozens of applications, and as the foundation for portable CLIs that run identically on any operating system. The story of how a browser technology became a universal compute substrate is worth understanding.
Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference on June 8 delivered its biggest software update in years: a complete Siri rebuild branded Siri AI, iOS 27 with AI-powered system features, and a clearer picture of where Apple Intelligence is actually going. Here's what was announced and what it means.
Wi-Fi 7 routers have been on sale since early 2024, but the standard only became widespread in 2025. Two years of real-world deployments tell a clearer story than any spec sheet: what actually changes, what stays the same, and whether it's worth upgrading from Wi-Fi 6E.
NIST finalized four post-quantum cryptographic standards in August 2024. CISA has told federal agencies to complete inventory by 2026 and migration by 2030. Most private sector organizations haven't started. A practical guide to the threat model, the standards that matter, and where to begin.
Meta's Ray-Ban smart glasses sold more than 4 million units in 2024 and proved that people will wear AI on their faces if the hardware is lightweight and the glasses look normal. Now Google has shipped Android XR glasses, Samsung is in the race, and the category is suddenly competitive in a way it hasn't been since Glass Enterprise Edition.
Pectra went live on Ethereum mainnet in May 2025 and immediately became the most consequential upgrade since The Merge. EIP-7702 — account abstraction for ordinary wallets — is the headline feature. What it enables in practice: transaction batching, gas sponsorship, and recovery options that could make self-custody genuinely accessible to non-technical users.
For most of the last decade, buying a thin laptop meant accepting that whatever RAM it shipped with was the RAM you'd have forever. LPCAMM2, a JEDEC-standardised memory module format first shipped in the Dell XPS 15 in late 2023, is changing that. In 2026, it has arrived in enough mainstream laptops to call it a trend.
OpenAI's o3, Claude 3.7 Sonnet's extended thinking, and DeepSeek R1 made "slow, deliberate AI reasoning" mainstream. But running a reasoning model on every task is like hiring a PhD to answer yes/no questions. Here's a practical framework for when extended thinking actually moves the needle — and when it just burns tokens.
Gesichtserkennungssysteme sind in Flughäfen, Stadien, Schulen, Einzelhandelsgeschäften und auf öffentlichen Straßen in Dutzenden von Ländern im Einsatz. Die Technologie hat sich dramatisch verbessert, und ihr Einsatz ist der Regulierung weit vorausgeeilt. Hier erfahren Sie, wo Ihr Gesicht gescannt wird, wofür die Daten verwendet werden und welche Schutzmaßnahmen tatsächlich existieren.
Allein in den USA gibt es mittlerweile über fünf Millionen gebrauchte Elektrofahrzeuge auf dem Markt. Die Batteriegesundheit ist das zentrale Anliegen der Käufer – doch die Daten zur realen Degradation zeigen, dass die Sorge oft schlimmer ist als die Realität. Hier sehen Sie, wie die Zahlen tatsächlich aussehen und wie man einen gebrauchten EV richtig bewertet.
Die Dev Container-Spezifikation, unterstützt von VS Code, GitHub Codespaces, JetBrains und der Open-Source-Community, löst leise das hartnäckigste Problem in der Softwareentwicklung: die Kluft zwischen den Entwicklungsumgebungen verschiedener Entwickler. Hier erfahren Sie, wie es funktioniert und wann es tatsächlich sinnvoll ist.
