ANTHROPIC'S SAFETY SUPERPOWER (18 MINUTE READ) [7]
Many people think that Anthropic's public statements around its model
releases are mostly scare-mongering for the sake of marketing.
However, its models are very impressive, and Anthropic's cautious
rollout of Mythos was justified. The model is definitely more capable
of identifying and exploiting security issues than previous
generations. The problem with public releases is that guardrails can
be jailbroken, which is what happened shortly after release.
FOX TO BUY ROKU STREAMING SERVICE IN $25 BILLION DEAL (4 MINUTE READ)
[8]
Fox is acquiring Roku in a deal valued at around $25 billion. The
deal will add scale to Fox's streaming business, subscription-based
Fox One, and Fox Nation. The combined company will compete with the
likes of Amazon and Netflix for ad dollars. The deal is expected to
close in the first half of 2027.

SCIENCE & FUTURISTIC TECHNOLOGY
SPACEX & THE SENTIENT SUN (44 MINUTE READ) [9]
SpaceX's mission statement to scale to make a sentient sun is more
honest than ridiculous. SpaceX is a launch provider with an internet
subsidiary and an AI lab. It is the only company on Earth assembling
the full prerequisite stack for a transition to a post-scarcity
society. The company is a serious attempt to push humanity into an interplanetary species.
BRAIN-COMPUTER INTERFACE ENABLES INDEPENDENT, ACCURATE COMMUNICATION
FOR MAN LIVING WITH ALS (14 MINUTE READ) [10]
A brain-computer interface developed at UC Davis has enabled a person
with severe paralysis caused by amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) to communicate, work, and interact with the digital world. The device
uses an advanced decoding algorithm to translate neural signals into
text and enable cursor control. It allows full interaction with a
personal computer. The development marks a significant step toward
delivering practical assistive technology for people with severe
speech and motor impairments.

AGENTIC CODE REVIEW (28 MINUTE READ) [12]
Coding agents are good and getting better fast. The hard heart of
engineering has moved from writing code to deciding whether to trust
it. Code review is the most leveraged skill in software right now. Understanding is still as expensive as it has always been.
THE GOLDEN RULE OF CUSTOMIZABLE SELECT (5 MINUTE READ) [13]
Customizable select, a new feature coming to Safari 27, allows
developers to fully control the appearance of 'select' elements
without the need for JavaScript libraries or endless 'div' elements.
Ensuring this built-in control works well for everyone requires making
sure developers always provide text content or accessible text
attributes in their 'option' elements. This provides a better UX,
better accessibility, and better progressive enhancement.

GOOGLE CHROME'S NEXT UPDATE WILL MARK THE END OF POPULAR AD BLOCKERS
(2 MINUTE READ) [14]
Google Chrome has been planning its move to Manifest V3 for years. A
recent commit in the Chromium repository finally removes support for
Manifest V2 extensions. This will stop many Manifest V2-based ad
blocker extensions from working. All traces of Manifest V2 will be
removed in Chrome 151.
THE WEB WE KNOW IS GOING TO DISAPPEAR (20 MINUTE READ) [15]
The web is now shifting from search engines to AI chat interfaces.
The open place where people search, click, read, browse, publish, and
discover is being replaced by something more centralized and much
harder to escape. Websites are increasingly becoming infrastructure
for machines. The web will likely still exist in the future, but it
may no longer be where people go.
