It introduces over 14 new performance and efficiency improvements. Organizations still using Redis 7.2 will need to either move to Valkey or upgrade to a new major version of Redis. Redis 7.8 will endure until May 2027, but it isn't strictly FOSS.

CSS functions just landed in Chrome 139. The capability helps developers write more organized and dynamic CSS. CSS functions can run logic - they accept arguments and return new values. Using custom functions makes code much neater. This article looks at some real-world examples of where CSS functions can come in handy. While Chrome is currently the only browser to have shipped the feature, CSS functions has gone through the CSSWG draft process, so other browsers should be implementing it soon.

Extreme working hours have long been rejected in the US because excessive hours tend to lead to burnout and other health issues in the long term. Despite that, more AI startups are increasing their hours, with some firms expecting staff to work more than 80 hours per week. These extreme hours are justified by a sprint to achieve Artificial General Intelligence in just a matter of months. These working hours will likely stay - the fear of missing out is very strong across the industry.

The days when Meta's self-identification as a social network caused them to miss fundamental shifts in the Internet are over. Meta used to talk about connection, but it has now switched to talking about empowering the individual. Facebook has transformed from a platform that connects people into a diverse global provider of entertaining and informative content. Being a social network was ultimately unsustainable, and Meta is now stronger than ever.

OpenAI's long-awaited open weight models have been released. The 120B model achieves near-party with OpenAI o4-mini on core reasoning benchmarks while running efficiently on a single 80 GB GPU. The 20B model delivers similar results to OpenAI o3-mini on common benchmarks and can run on edge devices with just 16 GB of memory. Both models are mixture-of-experts. It is likely that OpenAI now offers the best available open weights models.

Anthropic's new model, Opus 4.1, is more capable at coding, research, and data analysis and better at fielding complex multistep problems than previous versions. It can better navigate large codebases and make more precise modifications to code. Opus 4.1 scores two percentage points higher than its predecessor on SWE-Bench Verified, a popular coding evaluation benchmark. Anthropic is currently finalizing a deal to raise as much as $5 billion in a new funding round at a valuation of $170 billion.

Ozempic demonstrated remarkable anti-agent effects in a randomized controlled trial involving 108 people with HIV-associated lipohypertrophy, a condition characterized by excess fat accumulation and accelerated cellular aging. The researchers used epigenetic clocks to assess biological aging and found that those on semaglutide became 3.1 years biologically younger on average by the end of the study. The anti-aging effects weren't uniform across all body systems - the most dramatic improvements occurred in the inflammatory system and brain. The researchers believe that the anti-aging properties of semaglutide stem from its effects on fat distribution and metabolic health.

stagewise is a frontend coding agent for production codebases. Developers just have to tell the agent what they want to change, click on elements to let the agent know where a change should happen, and then stagewise does the rest. stagewise can be customized with plugins, and it is compatible with all kinds of frameworks. It features a dedicated frontend agent, but developers can use any other compatible agent through stagewise's open agent interface.

Programming is quickly changing. Claude Code fundamentally changed what is possible when working at scale. AI has removed a lot of friction in the development process, allowing tasks that weren't worth tackling before to be completed. However, when coding speed stops being the limiting factor, new bottlenecks emerge. The constraint now isn't how fast features can be implemented, it's how quickly decisions can be made about what to build.

Writing code that runs efficiently is hard. Hardware has improved significantly in the past few years. GenAI has accelerated this hardware transformation. The software side has a lot of work to do to catch up with the reality of the hardware.

Google DeepMind's Genie 3 model can create interactive worlds from prompts or images. It can create continuously generated environments that can be changed on the fly.

Tesla's board has awarded Elon Musk an interim pay package of 96 million shares worth about $29 billion. The package includes shares that vest in two years as long as Musk continues as CEO or in another key executive position. It will be forfeited if the legal battle over Musk's 2017 compensation ends with him being able to exercise shares from that package. The pay plan was approved by a 'special committee' of the Tesla board that included board chair Robyn Denholm and director Kathleen Wilson-Thompson. It doesn't limit Musk's ability to start new businesses or continue with his political work.

Synchron recently published a video of a patient controlling their iPad entirely with their thoughts. Apple is developing ways for Brain Computer Interfaces (BCIs) to translate brain signals into controls for its devices.

The demand for senior product designers has skyrocketed in the past five years. This has left a troubling gap as there are fewer opportunities for designers to gain critical experience and mentorship to develop into the next generation of leaders. If the trend continues, the field of design risks becoming stagnant, overqualified, and obsolete. Other industries have proven that sustainable talent development is possible, but it requires deliberate structure and aligned incentives.

Good estimation is about creating trust and transparency. An estimate is the beginning of a conversation that surfaces hidden complexity before it becomes a problem. Estimates are valuable when they become a shared language between developers and stakeholders, as they become reference points for meaningful discussions about progress and priorities. Estimates create visibility into the work to be done, allowing managers to check in without being intrusive and creating realistic expectations. Teams that consistently deliver treat estimates as tools for collaboration rather than a source of stress. Adjusting an estimate based on new information isn't admitting defeat: it's being professional.

The Lighthaven hotel has become a temple to the pursuit of artificial intelligence and the future of humanity. The gated complex includes five buildings and a small park. It is the de facto headquarters of the Rationalists, a group with many interests involving mathematics, genetics, and philosophy. One of the Rationalists' overriding beliefs is that artificial intelligence can deliver a better life if it doesn't destroy humanity first. The group believes it is up to the people building AI to ensure that it is a force for the greater good.

Montana passed a law in 2023 that allows any patient to access experimental treatments, not just those with terminal illnesses. In May, the state's governor signed a bill to create a framework for licensed treatment centers to offer access to therapies that have passed a Phase 1 safety trial. Patients are unlikely to receive their first therapies under the law before 2026, but roughly 20 businesses, ranging from small biotech companies to medical clinic operators, have already reached out to express interest in operating in Montana under the new law. Healthcare providers and drug makers will be largely protected from legal liability if patients are harmed unless they are negligent or fail to get proper consent from patients.

Sketch experienced a series of mini-outages on July 15. An LLM had made a small but critical change during a refactor that was missed by a human reviewer. When humans refactor code, they select the original text, cut it, move it to the new file, paste it, and then make intentional changes. LLMs write two patches, a deletion and an insertion, leaving room for transcription errors. Sketch added clipboard support to its agent environment to try to prevent further issues in transcription.

The best way to convince those around you to take on a project idea is to individually talk about it with many relevant people before finally pitching it to a decision-making group. Your odds of success dramatically increase if you've talked to the decision-makers in advance and have addressed their issues or incorporated their additions. Leaders need to create buy-in from their teams to maintain team morale. Getting everyone to buy in encourages autonomous collaboration and helps iteration happen quickly, but it could also lead to groupthink, exclude oppositional peers, and cause teams to misrepresent reality.

Figma just went public in one of the largest IPOs in Silicon Valley history. This article tells the story of Figma and its founder, Dylan Field. Field's journey was a true Silicon Valley story.

Choose novel technology when trying to learn something new and use boring technology when trying to solve a problem. Boring technologies have known failure modes, well-understood capabilities, and proven operational reliability. The advent of large language models and agent AI coding tools has made this principle even more critical. Developers who use technologies unknown to them have no way of verifying whether AI is leading them down the wrong path.

Fast software changes behavior. Fast eliminates cognitive friction and signals simplicity, which is rare in the world where code and content are commodities. Making software fast often requires stripping away non-essential features - the ultimate expression of respect in a world obsessed with adding rather than refining.
