They argue that these models are not inherently dangerous but rather a result of regulatory failures and unchecked power.

Getting 50 GB/S Back from the Apple Neural Engine

https://eiln.github.io/posts/2026-08-10-ane-dma/artifacts/bandwidth-vs-d-near-2048.png
The Apple M3 Neural Engine's DRAM weight streaming throughput is throttled at 17-19 GB/s when the total weight size is a multiple of 1 MiB, due to speculative prefetch ring lookahead requests. This issue can be avoided by splitting transfers that are multiples of 1 MiB into smaller chunks, resulting in a 2.6x speedup.

We must pace the frontier

Durable execution without history replay

https://trigora.dev/og-image.png
A durable execution system recovers by replaying retained execution history or checkpointing the program continuation, providing progress while allowing workers to remain ephemeral. Trigora is building an execution layer for long-running AI agents using a continuation-based recovery model that offers better scalability and performance than traditional replay-based systems.

Microcode in Intel's 8087 floating-point chip: the scale instruction

https://static.righto.com/images/8087-fscale/8087-die-labeled-w500.jpg
The Intel 8087 floating-point unit was introduced in 1980 and became the standard for most computers today. It uses a complex microcode system to handle various arithmetic operations, including scaling numbers by powers of two. The FSCALE instruction is one such operation that scales a number by adding its exponent to a power of two, but it is surprisingly complicated due to special cases and ...
