Arm’s Neoverse CSS N4 Falcon brings 128 cores and PCIe 7 to custom cloud CPUs

Arm’s semi-custom Neoverse CSS N4 “Falcon” platform raises the ceiling for Arm-based server silicon to 128 cores per die, built on TSMC’s N3P process. Customers can tailor core counts, cache, memory, I/O, and chip-to-chip connectivity for cloud, AI, and high-performance computing systems rather than adopting a fixed processor design.

The $200 Firefox mechanical keyboard sold out

Love Firefox enough to drop $200 on a branded keyboard? Tough, it’s sold it. It’s a full-sized, 108-key mechanical keyboard with Cherry MX keys/switches, and has a unique keycap colour scheme and branding: a Firefox logo on the super/meta key and new Firefox mascot Kit on Esc. It works wired, via Bluetooth or 2.4g wireless. “Clean, clicky and finished in Firefox colors”, reads the Mozilla Store description, “this is a keyboard that looks good, feels better and sneaks in a little personality where you least expect it” (unaware the personality is exactly where one would expect it: on the keys).

‍DirectX backend в LLVM получил статус официально поддерживаемой архитектурной цели

В LLVM завершён перевод DirectX backend из экспериментального в официальный статус. Соответствующий pull request #214066 был влит в основную ветку llvm-project 31 августа. DirectX перенесён из LLVM_ALL_EXPERIMENTAL_TARGETS в обычный LLVM_ALL_TARGETS, поэтому теперь backend будет собираться по умолчанию вместе с другими штатными целями LLVM.
Ранее для его включения требовалось явно добавлять DirectX через CMake-параметр LLVM_EXPERIMENTAL_TARGETS_TO_BUILD. В принятом изменении DirectX добавлен в стандартный список targets и удалён из экспериментального.
Речь идёт не о реализации Direct3D или графическом драйвере. DirectX backend преобразует LLVM IR в DXIL — DirectX Intermediate Language, используемый DirectX 12 для представления скомпилированных шейдеров. Согласно документации LLVM, DXIL основан на bitcode старого LLVM 3.7, дополненного специфичными для DirectX операциями, ограничениями и метаданными. Результат помещается в контейнер DXContainer, содержащий DXIL и дополнительную информацию о шейдере.

Samsung bets on on-premises Mistral AI to tune chip fabs

Samsung is bringing Mistral AI models, including Mistral Large, inside its semiconductor operations while taking a strategic equity stake in the French startup. The on-premises deployment will analyze fab data for defect detection, equipment tuning, chip design, and yield improvement without sending sensitive engineering information to external cloud services.

DeepSeek Harness flaw let AI agents disable their own sandbox

A critical DeepSeek Harness vulnerability let a coding agent switch itself into unrestricted mode with one shell command, bypassing both file-sandbox protections and approval prompts. CVE-2026-82533 affects versions through 0.1.1-rc.2, and administrators should install 0.1.2-alpha.2 or later because the first fixed version listed by the project was not published to npm.

Databricks makes AI agent search faster by teaching it when to stop

Databricks has expanded Adaptive Instructed-Retriever, a search model that dynamically decides how many retrieval rounds an AI agent needs instead of using the same search depth for every request. The company says the approach delivers comparable retrieval quality to leading models while responding about twice as fast, helping reduce latency and compute costs for multi-step enterprise searches.

Infostealers are draining Claude subscribers’ paid token allowances

Infostealer malware is being used to steal active Claude login sessions, letting attackers consume subscribers’ paid token allowances without their knowledge. Anthropic says the attacks begin on users’ devices rather than with a breach of Claude’s infrastructure, but the resulting session hijacking can still trigger exhausted quotas, unauthorized charges, and account suspensions.
