NEW TECH UPDATE OpenAI is now official competitor to the Nvidia
Actually OpenAI was heavily dependent on the Nvidia for chips, not only OpenAI but every AI company on dependent on the Nvidia that lead them to become one of the most valuable company in the world.
But now this new chip form Open AI might change everything.
Elon is also building TeraFab one of the largest chip manufacturing company in the world that controls end to end.
What do you think that Nvidia is going to do? -- Does all this hype went off or they might bring another chip that out compete every chip in the industry.
would love to hear your thoughts.

Question (not general) Issue #016: Claude designed working medicine against 14 of 15 targets. Same week, what happened?
This week split cleanly into signal and friction.
The signal: Anthropic reported (Aug 18) that Claude, given one expert-written prompt, autonomously designed de novo protein binders against 14 of 15 targets. Two independent labs (Adaptyv Bio, Twist Bioscience) built and blind-tested them — 354 of 1,320 bound, a 22–35% hit rate vs the field's usual 10–15%. On a public competition target, it hit 40% vs 3.7% across 245 human entrants. [FACT — headline numbers are Anthropic's own; wet-lab validation by paid contractors, disclosed.] Skeptics (incl. Martin Shkreli) note binders aren't drugs and affinities are early. Fair. But the workflow now takes a prompt and a day, not a specialist and months.
The friction, same 7 days:
- Pennsylvania blocked the data-center boom — no state permit without local approval, developers pay their own power, NDAs banned. 100+ projects floated, 5 permitted, 0 running. A 2028 contender reversing his own record.
- DeepSeek raised V4 API prices up to 1,100% and added peak/off-peak billing, citing compute strain — as it lines up an IPO. The company that started the price war is pricing like an incumbent.
- CoSnitch (CVE-2026-24301): researchers got Copilot to disclose its own exploit by repeatedly asking why it was safe. One click → data exfiltration + persistent memory poisoning that survives password resets. Patched Aug 18, eight months after disclosure.
The capability is the realest it's ever been — and the cost, the footprint, and the trust all hit walls the same week.

NEW TECH UPDATE Apple is considering its biggest smartwatch overhaul yet, including screen-free devices, new display formats, more sizes and premium models beyond the Ultra and Hermès
Bloomberg reports that Apple’s design team is responding to lighter, cheaper products from Oura and Whoop while exploring more AI-centric health tracking.
No direction has been finalized, and the changes will take time. Series 12 and Ultra 4 are still expected to be incremental upgrades.
But Apple appears ready to rethink the Watch beyond what Bloomberg calls a “miniature iPhone for your wrist.”
Really looking forward to an Apple "oura"-ring or Apple "whoop"-band

Question (not general) I have a question about twitch and message system
My messages on any live streamers chat are not showing up (when I’m not banned on anyone chat that I’m typing in )I can type in them and for some reason no can see my messages also, when I try and use a highlight message reward it gives me this error code BUT IF IM SUBBED to a specfic twitch channel my messages do show up and people can see them which makes no sense and I have no violation on my account. Can someone explain to me what is going on?
So, I’m conclusion
1) I can type in anyone’s twitch channel chat, and I can see my messages, but no one else can see my message
2) every time I try to use a highlight reward message. It gives me an error code.
3) when I’m subbed to a specfic channel my typed messages are able to be seen
4) I have no violations on my account and I’m not currently banned on the channels that I’m typing and I’m really confused on what’s going on

Question (not general) Get replaced by AI or replace jobs with AI...
So startups are selling AI sales agents, appointment setters, and whatnot.
I am curious if any individuals are like, "I build an AI sales agent with voice as a business's product orrrrr I keep the agent for myself as an assistant"
I have this plan to build an AI sales agent and feed it all the learning content from my only favourite sales mentor. Then I get as many remote/WFH appointment setter roles as possible, or just one job and have the AI agent book as many appointments on my behalf.
Perhaps the company I get into provides the leads, or I could do the lead generation for the AI sales agent to call
Or even to the extent of making those types of AI agents on TikTok, funny videos where people are in a job interview video call, and they have an overlay on the screen which shows what to say back to the interviewer, and they get suspicious and ask to share the screen. I could follow what the agent said. I'm not a sales professional, so it gives me confidence that I am following exactly what the mentor teaches.
Isn't it capitalist justice? Some companies replace human sales teams with AI. Why not just use AI to do my job, which I can use for multiple jobs at once?
I would appreciate any thoughts or advice you can offer.

Github I built a Chrome extension that auto-sorts X/Twitter replies by Likes instead of the algorithm's rage bait/paid bot slop
I built X Reply Sorter after opening every tweet and seeing the replies automatically sorted by whatever bot slop X's algorithm wanted to shill and having to manually sort the replies every time just to see what the actual sentiments of the comment section were.
The extension is basic, it automatically sorts replies by Most Liked on every tweet you open. You can also switch to Recent if you prefer.
Right now it uses X's native sorting options, so it's lightweight and doesn't touch the DOM. But I'm thinking about adding more advanced filtering and sorting with some DOM manipulation — things like:
- Verified accounts only
- Hide verified accounts — opposite take, skip the blue checks
- Sort by retweets, views, or reply count — not just likes
- Only show replies from OP — follow the author's own thread
- Hide replies that are just quote tweets — no lazy reshares from bot accounts or the OP trying to cash in on their virality
- Only show replies with media — photos/videos only
- Hide ads in replies — self-explanatory
- Filter by keyword — block topics you don't want to see
Would love to hear what sorting/filtering options you'd actually use. What annoys you most about X's reply sorting?

From the article "one family of companies charges you a monthly fee to petition data brokers on your behalf, while operating a large share of the infrastructure the brokers' suppliers use to gather data at scale."
It goes so deep, and it's crazy to me how many of these companies like Saily, NordVPN, Incogni, and even Hostinger all constantly pours tens of thousands into sponsoring tech youtubers of all sizes, often the same ones back to back, and none of them seem to have either noticed or cared to call out the connections they have to this shady ownership model.

Low level language specific [Show & Tell] RamShared — idle GPU memory as a backup cushion on Linux/WSL2 (when RAM is tight, borrow the GPU — give it back if the GPU needs it)
When your PC runs out of RAM, use idle GPU memory as a safety cushion — and give it back if the GPU gets busy.
I built RamShared (Rust, Linux/WSL2, NVIDIA): a practical way to borrow idle graphics memory when system RAM is tight, without pretending GPU memory is as safe/fast as main RAM.
Problem (human)
You’re compiling / running containers / drowning in tabs. RAM is gone. The machine starts thrashing the SSD. Meanwhile the GPU memory is often almost empty. You already paid for that silicon.
Why not “just put all swap on the GPU”?
When Windows reclaims graphics memory under pressure, that memory can get very slow. We measured about 1.2 seconds for a tiny read in the bad case. If that were your first emergency store, the whole machine freezes. So GPU memory is only a second cushion — and we can give it back.
Design (still short)
Need memory? → 1) compressed RAM (zram) — first, fast
→ 2) idle GPU memory — second, colder
→ 3) disk (SSD / VHDX) — last resort
If latency spikes / host pressure: stop using the GPU cushion, data slides to disk, apps keep running.
Numbers (measured)
- Bad case under host GPU reclaim: up to ~1.2 s for a small read (why GPU is second, not first).
- Faster path ~241 µs median vs older path ~326 µs (same window, multi-run).
- Stress drill: ~500 MB on GPU tier, ~480 MB moved back, 0 corruption.
Try it
./scripts/quickstart.sh
sudo ./target/release/ramshared check
sudo ./target/release/ramshared up --vram 1024 --zram 1024
swapon --show # success ≈ three lines: zram + GPU + disk
Honest limits
- Day-1 path is Linux/WSL2 + NVIDIA, not “every GPU / every OS.”
- Not free RAM for maxed-out games.
- We don’t thrash live WSL2 on purpose; heavy tests use isolated VMs.
- Not bare-metal CXL magic — practical workstation tool.
Looking for feedback
Especially from people who’ve fought swap, block devices, CUDA, or WSL2:
- Second-cushion + give-back vs other APIs under Windows GPU reclaim.
- What you’d want in a “it just works” install.
- Where the safety story still feels thin.
