The price of secondary housing in Moscow has risen sharply: in just one month, the average price per square meter has increased by 5.4%, now totaling β‚½598,000.

In St. Petersburg, prices rose by 4.7% in August, and in Yekaterinburg, they increased by 3.4%. All figures for the top 10 regions with rising prices can be found in the image.

This surge is attributed to demand: secondary housing is currently, on average, 20% cheaper than new constructions.

Hackers breached OpenAI using... Claude. The Hacktron team took just 72 hours to discover two critical vulnerabilities.

One of the vulnerabilities was related to image processing, while the other involved authorization in the internal system. As a result, the hackers managed to access several ChatGPT accounts, one of which belonged to an OpenAI employee.

This employee was connected to the company's internal GitHub. To illustrate the level of vulnerability: they were able to make changes to the repository.

On the positive side, these were white hat hackers. They alerted OpenAI about the issue and even received a reward of $6,500.

Anthropic has opened its own biology lab: Claude will manage robots, conduct experiments, and possibly even develop medications.

Anthropic themselves state that drug development is not their primary goal. The company plans to address global issues that modern pharmaceuticals "ignore."

There is already a theory circulating online that Claude will focus on combating aging.

Fun fact: Apple has placed signs with the word "hello" in literally every Apple Store around the world so that customers can find them and test the zoom feature on the iPhone 18 Pro.

They are still marketing geniuses.

A clear comparison of GPT-6 Astra Max versus Claude Fable 5.1 Max in the coding benchmark Code Arena.

In short: Astra performs better with analytical, product, and content-related tasks, while Fable 5.1 excels in visuals and interactivity.

Currently, GPT-6 Astra Max leads the overall ranking. You can explore the entire leaderboard at this link.

GPT-6 Astra decoded a German radio message from World War II. In just 10 hours, it cracked a cipher that had remained unsolved for 83 years.

The message was encrypted by a German soldier on July 10, 1941, using an Enigma machine. It contained a request to indicate his further route from Rosenau.

The model delved into archives and found a previously decoded message from the same day and with the same city name. Then, it wrote code for cryptanalysis and arrived at the decoded sequence.

In the end, Astra even created a project website where you can read about the decoding history and interact with a 3D Enigma simulator.

A beautiful sight: a pilot from the USA created an outline of the Mona Lisa in the sky, flying a route shaped like her silhouette in a small Cessna Skylane RG.

He spent 3 hours and 47 minutes in the air to recreate Leonardo da Vinci's masterpiece. Approximately 70,000 users watched the flight in real time.

This is even cooler than the drawings made after runs on Strava.

Mark Gurman, the insider known for his accurate leaks about Apple, has stated that it's not worth buying the iPhone 18 Pro if you already have a previous model.

According to his comments, there are currently many enthusiastic reviews about the new iPhone from bloggers on social media. However, the issue is that they were all "bought" through barter deals.

He does not specify what exactly the problem with the iPhone 18 Pro is, suggesting that the updates may be too minor.

A former OpenAI employee has introduced a new generation of AI: their Jev model works 200 times faster than regular LLMs for certain tasks. Here's a brief overview of what the startup TypeSafe AI, led by Diogo Almeida, has accomplished: - Jev does not generate…
A comprehensive collection of tools, demos, and ready-made projects for working with Jevβ€”a new model from a former OpenAI employeeβ€”has been compiled online.

There are tools for Claude Code and Codex, useful guides, and even games. However, Jev excels in agent scenarios, so the collection also includes agents for macOS, Android, and browsers.

Everything has been gathered in one project on GitHub. You can check it out here.

The iPhone 18 Pro has been rated as repairable at 7 out of 10. iFixit has traditionally taken apart the new Apple smartphone for parts.

Key issues:
- The plastic frame under the display. In almost all cases, it cracked when the display was removed β€” simply applying fresh glue is not enough; a new frame needs to be installed.
- Variable aperture. This significantly increases repair costs: if the mechanism breaks, the entire module will need to be replaced.

Repairs are possible, but it's best not to break the camera.

ChatGPT monitors free users β€” OpenAI tracks their clicks, IP addresses, and email addresses on external sites.

You can disable this by:
1) Blocking third-party cookies. In Chrome, go to Settings β†’ Privacy and Security β†’ Cookies and other site data β†’ Block third-party cookies. Safari, Firefox, and Brave do this by default.

2) Blocking the tracker. In uBlock Origin, AdGuard, or at the DNS level, add bzr.openai.com and bzrcdn.openai.com to the block list. This will prevent the script from loading on external sites.

Additionally, you can disable the collection of analytical cookies on all OpenAI pages.

Sam, please don’t do that.

The trailer for "The Misadventures of Cliff Booth," a spin-off of Quentin Tarantino's "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood," has been released.

The story is set eight years after the events of the original film. Cliff has left his career as a stuntman and now helps studios "solve problems," including scandals.

Brad Pitt reprises his role as Cliff Booth, but this time the film is directed by David Fincher.

It will be released in theaters on November 25, and will be available on Netflix in December.

Jev has "speedrun" Minecraft in collaboration with Astra: the next-generation model and OpenAI's flagship managed to defeat the Ender Dragon in just 8 minutes.

The neural networks were trained on the mistakes from previous attemptsβ€”Astra developed skills based on those errors. Jev was responsible for making instant decisions. This cost only $1 in tokens.

However, the AI has only succeeded in a pre-known world, which is commonly used by real speedrunners.

The code and settings for the models are available here.

Telegram groups will become squares: new settings for video messages have been discovered in the messenger's beta version.

There will be options for adjusting video quality and frame rate, allowing for clearer and smoother videos.

A more notable feature is "Composition," which will enable users to record videos without the circular crop and remove background blurring.

Update: Videos will remain circular, while the square format will be used when saving them to a device.

Grok 4.7 has been released β€” the new xAI model partially outperforms GPT 5.6 Sol and Fable 5.1 in everyday tasks.

It performs well on long tasks, writes code, and excels in engineering and legal matters. It also shows decent results in 3D design.

The pricing and speed remain the same as the previous version β€” $2 per million input tokens and $6 for output tokens, with a context limit of 500,000 tokens.

You can already test it in Cursor, Grok Build, and via the Grok API.
