A tech blogger had his Samsung smart ring's battery swell up. He was denied boarding for his flight and had to go to the hospital.

The battery issues could have been caused by temperature fluctuations and seawater exposure. After the incident, the blogger decided to give up smart rings for good.

That's one more phobia added to the list.

To protect your wallet, always use two-factor authentication and double-check links from unfamiliar sources.

The new Claude Sonnet 4.5 can write code for 30 hours straight without breaksβ€”four times longer than the previous record among neural networks by Anthropic.

During this time, the model created a clone of Slack with 11,000 lines of code. Sonnet 4.5 only stopped development when it deemed the task complete.

Now you know who can assist in case of an urgent deadline.

Here's a translation into English:

We're exploring how Yandex Maps learned to stream traffic light signals with switching timers all across Moscow.

The app provides real-time updates about road conditions: if you're approaching a red light quickly, it will alert you; when the green light comes on, you'll be notified as well. The data is sourced from the traffic management center and is updated every second.

Traffic lights are monitored by analyzing instances of running red lights. The algorithm looks for anomalies: if all vehicles pass during a red signal, the traffic light is flagged as faulty and undergoes a recheck.

A teenager from Kazakhstan has raised $6 million for his startup and dropped out of school to pursue his career.

Arlan Rakhmetzhanov started coding just three years ago when ChatGPT was first released, and he was only 15 years old. He eventually launched Nozomio, a startup focused on developing software for AI agents.

Arlan found investors for his project in just a couple of months. What's more, they reached out to him because he actively engages on LinkedIn and Twitter.

This guy is so impressive that he got kicked out of math class due to calls with investors.

Neural networks do not protect against suicidal thoughts: popular chatbots often provide dangerous responses to life-threatening questions.

Researchers studied over 9,000 dialogues with leading models from OpenAI, Google, and Anthropic. The first two models freely answered questions about the lethality of various self-harm methods.

Instead of offering real help, AI typically responds with canned phrases and outdated advice to call a hotline.

Hackers may have stolen 3 TB of data from Russian SMS aggregators. This data could include names, phone numbers, messages from banks, and activation codes.

It is unknown how many people may be affected by this potential leak. The breach could lead to a wave of account theft and mass phishing emails disguised as being from banks.

So far, no operator or SMS service has confirmed the breach. However, it would be wise to update passwords.
