Launching Junction: come speed-run the semiconductor tech tree this December in Bangalore.
We’re flying in students from all over India 🇮🇳 to a 2-week fabrication retreat at @_lagrangepoint to build equipment, design chips and engineer processes, with our friends at @hackerfabindia.
India still needs thousands of semicon engineers -- the ecosystem to produce them isn’t mature enough yet -- we're changing that.
Current applicants have built vacuum chambers to study plasma physics, RISC-V processors from scratch, scanning tunneling microscopes, et cetera
At junction you will:
1. Propose a project
2. Figure out a plan with the Junction team.
3. Iterate fast towards a working prototype, with help from the Junction team
4. Be mentored by top semiconductor hackers and specialists.
5. Demo to industry leaders, founders, investors, and your fellow craftspeople
Flights, accommodation and project expenses? All covered. Apply on the link below

why is Google suddenly dropping models like they invented transformers, own half the internet’s data, and sit on an ocean of TPUs?
oh wait…
I did say we'd be releasing our models periodically...introducing Gemini 4 Carbon, our next frontier model.
Following Argon's release just two weeks ago, Carbon shows the pace at which we’re pushing the frontier, it ranks #1 on the recently updated v5.0 of @ArtificialAnlys Intelligence Index at 59. It also leads across key cybersecurity evaluations scoring 88.2% on SEC-bench Pro for finding vulnerabilities, 54.8% on ExploitGym for exploitation, and 71.0% on CWE-bench for patching.
We’re seeing significant improvements in long-horizon tasks even compared to Argon, and we’ve strengthened frontier safeguards.
As we did with Argon, we’re going to roll it out gradually + responsibly. Some trusted cyber defenders will get access starting this week. We'll be expanding it to more partners through our Fairwind Program, ahead of wider availability soon, so hang tight!

All Apple needs to do is slap the new OLED screen on a 15" Macbook Air, drop the touchscreen nobody wants, and they have a winning product.

This should be life ban behaviour..... no combat sport would survive if this is allowed
Even in sports they are criminals
USA’s Morgan Turner twiced poked Russia’s Elizaveta Smirnova in the eyes during the World Wrestling Championships. Smirnova was left with a serious corneal injury and rushed to hospital. Turner was disqualified on the spot. Not enough - she should be arrested and given a 20 year sentence.

I really do not understand the pricing on the new Mac Studio M5 Ultra.
A 256GB unit costs $10,799.
Upgrading that RAM to 512GB adds an extra $11,500.
You are paying more just to double the memory than it costs to buy two separate 256GB machines. And two machines give you twice the processors and twice the storage for less money.
How does this pricing strategy make any sense?

Apple has all the ingredients to make an incredible Apple Pencil experience with iMac Studio.
Frankly the iMac would benefit more from a touchscreen than the MacBook Pros.

₹544 for a 2% salicylic acid face wash.
Jan Aushadhi has a 2% option for ₹66.
Same active ingredient. Wildly different prices.
So I built SameSalt: search the brands you buy, see the same-salt swap, find a Kendra near you.
