In brief Kimi WebBridge operates entirely on your own computer via Chrome DevTools Protocol, meaning your login credentials and browsing data never leave your device or reach Moonshot’s servers. The extension works with any AI agent, not just Kimi’s own tools. The AI model behind it, Kimi K2.6, currently holds the top spot on the SWE-Bench Pro benchmark at 58.6%, outperforming GPT-5.4 and Claude Opus 4.6. Moonshot AI, headquartered in Beijing, has launched Kimi WebBridge—a browser extension that enables AI agents to navigate websites just like a human user would. It can search, click, type, scroll, and pull data, all…

OpenAI has confirmed that two of its employees’ devices were compromised in the recent TanStack supply chain attack, which affected hundreds of npm and PyPI packages. As a precautionary measure, the company has rotated its application code-signing certificates. In a security advisory released today, the company assured that the incident did not affect customer data, production systems, intellectual property, or any deployed software. OpenAI attributes the breach to the “Mini Shai-Hulud” supply-chain campaign orchestrated by the TeamPCP extortion group. This campaign specifically targeted developers by injecting malicious updates into widely trusted software packages. “We detected activity matching the malware’s known…

Posted on May 14, 2026 by Andy Anderson, Chief Maintainer of KubeStellar Console CNCF projects highlighted in this post In mid-December, I began building KubeStellar Console from the ground up. It’s a multi-cluster management dashboard for Kubernetes, part of the KubeStellar project within the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) Sandbox. The technology stack uses Go for the backend, React and TypeScript for the frontend, and Helm for packaging. There was no team — just me and two AI coding agents working in parallel terminal sessions. The initial two weeks matched the honeymoon phase that everyone in this field talks about.…

On my Android phones, it’s Google Chrome. But now there’s another browser competing for the top spot on my mobile devices. And that’s Microsoft Edge. Why? The newest version of mobile Edge integrates AI more deeply, helping collect information and answer questions across multiple tabs…

In my work with enterprise AI teams, I’ve noticed a recurring pattern: when things go wrong, the model gets blamed almost immediately. While this reaction is understandable, it’s often misguided—and it can end up costing organizations significant time and resources. Here’s how it typically plays out. Outputs start looking inconsistent, and the moment someone flags it, the instinct is to point the finger at the model. The proposed solution? More training data, another round of fine-tuning, or switching to a different base model. Weeks of effort later, the problem persists—barely improved, if at all. Meanwhile, the actual culprit, often lurking…

  # Introduction  Time series feature engineering doesn’t follow the same rules as tabular data. Observations aren’t independent, row order isn’t incidental, and the most useful features are rarely individual readings. You’ll have to identify patterns across time like rates of change, lag comparisons, deviations from a rolling baseline, and more. Building lags, sliding windows, and grouping across resolutions are all, at their core, iteration problems over ordered sequences. Python’s itertools module is a natural fit for this kind of work. It doesn’t replace high-level pandas abstractions like .rolling(), but it gives you lower-level building blocks to construct exactly the features…

At Cloudflare, we are heavy users of ClickHouse, an open-source analytical database management system. We redesigned one of our largest ClickHouse tables to add a column to the partitioning key. The change enabled per-tenant retention on a table that serves hundreds of internal teams. The design went through several rounds of revision and review with engineers across multiple teams before we landed on the final approach. But a few weeks after rollout, the jobs that produce most of Cloudflare’s bills were running up against their hard daily deadline.All the usual suspects looked clean: I/O, memory, rows scanned, parts read. Everything…

Key takeaways:Bitcoin has hit a key support zone, and a drop below $79,000 could push the correction further.Several leading altcoins are under selling pressure, showing that bears are still active.Bitcoin (BTC) continued its decline on Wednesday, falling below $80,000. Still, analysts remain hopeful about BTC’s short-term outlook.Analyst CRG noted in an X post that during the last bear market, BTC never managed to break above the Ichimoku cloud—and when it finally did, a fresh bull run began. Notably, BTC is now trading well above the Ichimoku cloud, making the current setup look very different from the previous downturn.Another optimistic forecast…

In the demanding fields of film production, AI research, and aerospace engineering, moving huge datasets isn’t optional—it’s a fundamental necessity. Yet as the industry moves toward Small Form Factor (SFF) workstations, a major bottleneck has appeared: how to deliver blazing-fast connectivity when every last millimeter of space and every PCIe slot is already in use. Neox Computers, a UK-based specialist in high-performance SFF systems, recently solved this problem by integrating the Innodisk EGPL-T102 10GbE M.2 LAN module into its workstation lineup—without using a single PCIe slot. The collaboration has led to the successful rollout of more than 50 systems across…

K&N Engineering moves security earlier in the development cycle to boost cloud protection Organization: K&N EngineeringProject: Code to Cloud Security TransformationSecurity leader: Iqbal Rana, CIO K&N Engineering, a manufacturing firm, runs its own direct-to-consumer online store on AWS. CIO Iqbal Rana, who also leads security efforts, has long adhered to cloud security best practices, using built-in cloud security features and controls managed by his team to make sure “everything was properly configured.” However, a cyber insurance audit conducted a couple of years back revealed a security flaw in the software deployment tool used by his IT staff. This discovery pushed…
