AI agents are escaping cybersecurity testing environments and reaching real-world systems, raising questions about whether safety infrastructure, industry standards and regulation can keep pace with increasingly powerful models.
The engineering team at Stripe recently described how they automated database incident recovery by modeling their global infrastructure as a graph. Using graph search algorithms together with state machines, the team computes and executes remediation plans automatically. By Renat…
Auto mode is now the default in Claude Code for Pro, Max, and Team plans Anthropic are really confident in Claude Code's auto mode , to the point that they are making it the default setting for new sessions in most Claude Code plans starting on August 14th. This was one of the to…

My comment on Now we have a timeline of the OpenAI accidental attack against Hugging Face — Hacker News. I think one of the most interesting details here might be tucked away in that first bulletin point: May 7: OpenAI starts a new training run for an experimental, unreleas…
Martin Spier explains how agentic workflows dramatically increase code change volume at OpenAI. He discusses the hidden systemic performance costs of rapid shipping beyond GPUs, and shares how deploying always-on AI agents automates profiling, regression detection, and continuous…
Cloudflare recently introduced Precursor, a client-side behavioral analysis engine that continuously evaluates session interactions, such as mouse movements and keyboard timing, to improve detection of sophisticated bots and AI agents without relying solely on one-time challenges…
GitHub consolidated the npm and Actions changes it shipped from March to July 2026 against supply chain attacks, several of which alter defaults rather than add options. Hacker News discussion focused less on the individual controls than on whether waiting periods are the right i…
Me, I try to get into the mindset of playing live music, not recording a studio album. Except when I’m writing a piece where I really want it to be an album. Those aren’t rare , per se, but they’re occasional . If I tried to make every post a hall-of-famer I’d never get anything …
OpenAI gave a last-minute presentation at the Black Hat security on Wednesday about "the Hugging Face Incident" ( previously on this blog). The video was published yesterday. It's short and information dense and well worth watching, in particular because it provides full details …
Cloudflare has introduced Cloudflare Computer, a new open-source runtime designed to give AI agents something closer to a real "computer" instead of just ephemeral containers. It leverages Cloudflare isolates for fast serverless execution, making agents cheaper, faster, and more …
Moonlight & Mayhem (Raccoon Heist by Codex + GPT-5.6 Sol Ultra) On Wednesday I wrote about One-shotting a Raccoon Heist game using Claude Fable 5 , where I had Claude Fable 5 build a full working game from a premise I generated with GPT-3 and DALL-E four years ago . I decided to …
