APPLE'S FOLDABLE IPHONE TO FEATURE IPAD-LIKE INTERFACE WHEN OPENED (4
MINUTE READ) [5]
Apple's upcoming foldable iPhone will have an iPad-like layout when
opened. It will be able to run apps side-by-side for the first time.
The interior foldable display will be roughly the size of an iPad
mini. The external screen will be about the size of the display on a
small iPhone. Apple is developing new iOS app layouts so developers
can adapt their software to the new interface.
MUSK UNVEILS JOINT TESLA-XAI PROJECT `MACROHARD,' EYES SOFTWARE
DISRUPTION (2 MINUTE READ) [6]
Elon Musk has revealed a new joint project between Tesla and xAI
called 'Macrohard' or 'Digital Optimus' aimed at creating a system
capable of emulating the functions of software companies. The project
pairs xAI's Grok with a Tesla-developed AI agent that processes
real-time computer screen video and keyboard and mouse actions. The
system will run on Tesla's in-house AI4 chip paired with xAI's
Nvidia-based server hardware. xAI applied for a trademark for
'Macrohard' in August 2025.

ANDURIL, THE AUTONOMOUS WEAPONS MAKER, DOUBLES THE SIZE OF ITS SPACE
UNIT (5 MINUTE READ) [7]
Anduril is acquiring ExoAnalytic Solutions, a space intelligence firm
that operates a network of sensors that monitor the movements of
satellites above Earth. The acquisition will more than double
Anduril's staff dedicated to space projects. Anduril is best known for developing autonomous weapons such as cruise missiles, jet-powered
missile interceptors, and underwater drones. The purchase of
ExoAnalytic will accelerate Anduril's work on supporting national
security space customers.
HOW TO DESIGN ANTIBODIES (28 MINUTE READ) [8]
AI-based tools can now help scientists design original antibodies on computers. Antibodies are among the most versatile tools in biology.
Before AI, scientists searching for a useful antibody would have to
screen billions of candidates in laboratory assays to identify just a
handful with a high affinity for a target. Now, suitable binders can
be found after just tens of attempts rather than billions. This post
shows readers the modern computational process for designing
antibodies from scratch.

WORDPRESS EVERYWHERE (5 MINUTE READ) [10]
Thanks to advances in WebAssembly, it is now possible to spin up a
web server, a database, and a full WordPress installation within a
browser in about 30 seconds. WordPress has now launched a site that
does exactly that. Users can launch it to build sites and
cross-publish apps to the web, desktop, and iOS. WordPress plans to
add features like peer-to-peer sync, version control integration, and
cloud publishing.
TEMPORAL: THE 9-YEAR JOURNEY TO FIX TIME IN JAVASCRIPT (24 MINUTE
READ) [11]
The JavaScript Temporal object, a full replacement for the Date
object, enables date and time management in various scenarios, such as
time zone and calendar representation, wall-clock time conversions, arithmetics, and formatting. It has an intricate and powerful API that
exposes over 200 utility methods via several classes. Implementing
Temporal was a challenge as it was a very large proposal that brought
more challenges to JavaScript than any other proposal in the
programming language's history. This post takes readers through the
journey of how Temporal came to be.

PRODUCTIVE INDIVIDUALS DON'T MAKE PRODUCTIVE FIRMS (18 MINUTE READ)
[12]
Individual AI is the vector by which most of the world's businesses
will first experience the transformative magic of AI. However,
productive individuals do not make productive firms. There is a gaping
need for institutional intelligence that creates coordination, finds
signal, creates objectivity, optimizes for edge, and scales revenue. Organizations need an institutional AI purpose-built for
domain-specific problems that individual AIs can leverage as a tool.
THE MARGINAL HIRE (1 MINUTE READ) [13]
Companies are hiring again, but at a lower rate than before. AI is
helping teams ship with smaller headcounts. Most organizations aren't
laying workers off or restructuring, just hiring less than planned. AI
is taking jobs, just invisibly, one unposted job at a time.
