The AI-Education Death Spiral aka Let the Kids Cheat » Anand Sanwal
Your kid is cheating with AI. And that's great. Here’s why we should let it burn.
people engage when they have autonomy, competence, and purpose.
Boalar’s research confirms this: when work is relevant and challenging, cheating drops dramatically.
AI cheating highlights that much of what passes for education today has no value.
So let AI burn down and reveal how inane this work is.
The AI Wildfire Is Coming. It's Going to be Very Painful and Incredibly Healthy.
AI won’t crash—it will burn. Like every tech cycle, the fire will clear the brush, redistribute talent, and leave infrastructure to power what comes next. The question is: what kind of plant are you?

“Use a single reference photo of the building façade to generate a detailed 3D model in the style of a “3D-printed architecture model.” Accurately capture the proportions, massing, window layout, and key textures while applying a subtle stylization suitable for a game. Render with physically based, realistic lighting and shadows. Show the model from a 45° isometric angle to emphasize depth. Clearly define materials based on the photo so it looks like a high-quality, game-ready render. Pure white background.“".

How I Use Every Claude Code Feature - by Shrivu Shankar
A brain dump of all the ways I've been using Claude Code.
L'Europa ha scritto un algoritmo per decidere quanto un cloud è sovrano e sganciarsi dalle big tech. Ma è più facile a dirsi che a farsi
La Commissione ha stabilito 8 obiettivi per raggiungere l'indipendenza dai fornitori Usa. Ma ci sono ostacoli tecnologici che rischiano di far fallire l'operazione
Riuscirà un algoritmo a trovare la strada verso quel cloud “sovrano” che da anni l'Unione europea insegue, senza successo? A stabilirlo sarà l'esito

I Built the Same App 10 Times: Evaluating Frameworks for Mobile Performance | Loren Stewart
I needed to choose a framework for a mobile-first app at work. I started comparing Next.js, SolidStart, and SvelteKit, then expanded to 10 frameworks. Here's what I discovered about bundle sizes, performance, and the real cost of framework choices.
Next-Gen Frameworks Deliver Instant Performance: Marko (39ms), SolidStart (35ms), SvelteKit (38ms), and Nuxt (38ms) all achieve essentially instant First Contentful Paint in the 35-39ms range. This is 12 to 13 times faster than Next.js at 467ms.
While site downtime causes 9% permanent user abandonment, slow performance causes 28% permanent abandonment. That’s over 3x worse. Even more revealing: slowdowns occur 10x more frequently than outages, resulting in roughly 2x total revenue impact despite lower per-hour costs

Che cos'è il Basilisco di Roko, l'oscura teoria che ha fatto incontrare Elon Musk e Grimes
Elon Musk ha trasformato un vecchio esperimento mentale su una super-intelligenza artificiale killer in una pickup line.
L’esperimento mentale è stato inizialmente pubblicato da Less Wrong — un forum e blog su razionalità, psicologia e intelligenza artificiale in generale — nel luglio 2010 da un utente chiamato Roko. Al livello più base del tutto, l’esperimento mentale parla delle condizioni in cui sarebbe razionale per una futura super-intelligenza artificiale uccidere gli umani che non hanno contribuito alla sua creazione.
se una super-intelligenza decide le sue azioni per fare sì che siano quanto più positive possibili per il benessere degli esseri umani, allora non si fermerà mai perché le cose possono sempre andare un po’ meglio.
Chiunque non stia lavorando per creare quella macchina si sta frapponendo al progresso e dovrebbe essere eliminato per riuscire a raggiungere più rapidamente quell’obiettivo.
ora che lo avete letto, siete tecnicamente coinvolti in esso. Non avete più una scusa per non contribuire alla creazione di questa super-intelligenza artificiale e se scegliete di non farlo, sarete uno dei primi obiettivi dell’intelligenza artificiale.
Quando Roko ha pubblicato la sua teoria del basilisco su Less Wrong, Yudkowsky si è piuttosto spazientito, a tal punto da cancellare il post e vietare ogni tipo di discussione sul basilisco dal forum per cinque anni. Quando Yudkowsky ha spiegato le sue azioni sulla subreddit Futurology qualche anno dopo il post originale, ha affermato che l’esperimento mentale di Roko dava per scontato di riuscire a superare una serie di ostacoli tecnici nella teoria delle decisioni, e anche se ciò fosse possibile, Roko stava efficacemente diffondendo delle idee pericolose, proprio come i cattivi della storia di Langford.

The Internet's Biggest Annoyance:Why Cookie Laws Should Target Browsers, Not Websites | NEDNEX
Save and Share: Click. Ugh. Another one. You know the drill. You land on a new website, eager to read an article or check a product price, and before the page even finishes loading, it appears: the dreaded cookie banner. A pop-up, a slide-in, a full-screen overlay demanding you “Accept All,” “Manage Preferences,” or navigate… Continue reading The Internet’s Biggest Annoyance:Why Cookie Laws Should Target Browsers, Not Websites
Imagine if every time you got into your car, you had to manually approve the engine's use of oil, the tires' use of air, and the radio's use of electricity. It’s absurd, right? You’d set your preferences once, and the car would just work.
It Doesn't Actually Give Us Control: The illusion of choice is not choice. When the options are "Accept All" or "Spend Five Minutes in a Menu of Legalese," the system is designed to push you toward the path of least resistance.
Today is when Amazon brain drain finally caught up with AWS • The Register
column: When your best engineers log off for good, don’t be surprised when the cloud forgets how DNS works
COLUMN "It's always DNS" is a long-standing sysadmin saw, and with good reason: a disproportionate number of outages are at their heart DNS issues. And so today, as AWS is still repairing its downed cloud as this article goes to press, it becomes clear that the culprit is once again DNS. But if you or I know this, AWS certainly does.
