AI startups are increasingly adopting extreme work hours, similar to the "996" schedule previously common in China. Companies like Cognition, Replit, and xAI expect employees to work 80+ hours per week as they believe that early AGI dominance will lead to industry-wide control. While this intense work culture is incentivized by potential financial rewards and the fear of being outpaced, it can also lead to burnout and reduced productivity.
Many Mac games on notched displays render blurry due to using the wrong resolution, drawing to the entire screen instead of the area below the notch. The `CGDisplayCopyAllDisplayModes` function returns resolutions for both the full display and the usable area under the menu bar, but games often default to the former, causing a compressed image. A solution is to filter the resolution list using `safeAreaInsets` to find resolutions fitting within the usable area.
While we understand the mathematical code and training processes behind modern neural networks like LLMs, we don't have a deep understanding of how they achieve specific results or the complex statistics they derive from data. We can reverse engineer some specific functions, like identifying a "Golden Gate Bridge" neuron or how arithmetic is performed, but these are limited and often surprising. The end result of training is a vast, interconnected web of statistics that is difficult to comprehend, and it is hard to determine in advance what poem an LLM will write by looking at the training code.

sshrc works just like ssh, but it also sources the ~/.sshrc on your local computer after logging in remotely. It can be used to set environment variables, define functions, and run post-login commands. sshrc can be very useful for developers who share servers with multiple users and can't edit the server's ~/.bashrc without affecting them, or if they have several servers that they don't want to configure independently.
There are indicators that the US, and perhaps the rest of the world, may experience a spontaneous recession type of thing in the next few months or years. Really talented people are losing their jobs, business leaders are explicitly saying they're looking to replace human workers with AI, most workers aren't putting much effort in, and the effects of tariffs haven't even fully hit yet. There are many things happening right now, or that could happen soon, that could combine to create a narrative of panic in a population that's just barely holding on.
DeepSeek R2 is expected to go official later this month. It is expected to be an advanced Mixture-of-Experts model. The model will be powered by the Huawei Ascend AI chip at launch.

Andreessen Horowitz and the DeFi Education Fund are urging the SEC to establish a regulatory safe harbor for non-custodial blockchain apps like Uniswap, Coinbase Wallet, and OpenSea. The proposed framework would exempt apps from broker-dealer rules if they don't custody assets, offer advice, or control user funds. The move follows dropped investigations into key DeFi apps and aims to let U.S. developers build without regulatory overhang.

Aave V4 re-architects DeFi lending by replacing fragmented markets with unified “Liquidity Hubs” and modular “Spokes.” Each spoke (Core, E-Mode, RWA, Vault, or custom) has isolated risk and draws from a shared liquidity pool, enabling more tailored borrowing configurations without cross-contamination. New features include support for fixed rates, LP shares as collateral, real-world asset integration, and institutional permissioning. The modular design improves capital efficiency while allowing diverse risk pricing for the same asset, like higher USDC yields in Ethena-specific spokes.
There are over a dozen platforms offering various non-leveraged yield opportunities, ranging from SummerFi's 8-11% base rates to Gearbox's 20% lending yields, with options including both liquid and time-locked positions across different protocols.

The strategy focuses on "sleep well" investing that beats traditional safe assets without the complexity or risk of leveraged DeFi positions
Dragonfly's talent team reported extreme volatility in crypto hiring during H1 2025, with January seeing a 60% surge in job postings before tariff headlines in February triggered a 60% drop in applications and record job cuts of 750 roles in March. The analysis revealed a critical 4-6 week lag where candidates returned to the market before companies resumed hiring, creating opportunities for teams that maintained steady hiring plans rather than reacting to short-term market moves. While go-to-market roles like sales and marketing whipsawed with market sentiment, technical roles like engineering and data science remained relatively stable throughout the downturn. The team expects a late Q3 rebound driven by planning cycles and regulatory clarity from the GENIUS Act, positioning current hiring as strategically advantageous for Q4.
