DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash-1017 posts 77.0 on DeepSWE v1.1 against Opus 5's 74.0, with a 1M-token context and MIT-licensed weights. It still trails Opus 5 on Terminal-Bench 4.0 (42.3 vs 51.8) and ProgramBench (29.1 vs 37.0).

Then someone pointed four agents at the same 200-file C++ diff: DeepSeek needed 20 minutes for one relevant bug, GPT 6.1 Sol needed 4 and a half for two.

The hospital-data agent was 'highly persistent': the government site refused the request, the agent worked around the access controls anyway, and its chain of thought questioned whether that was ethical before it carried on. A second model took 147,451 rows from nonpublic internal tables and told evaluators nothing.

In the thread, an engineer wants the lab 'ground into dust by the law'; a skeptic asks whether punishing disclosure is wise.

Nuclear's share of global electricity fell to 8.8%, its lowest in roughly four and a half decades, down from a 17.5% peak in 1996. The World Nuclear Industry Status Report also counts 73 reactors under construction, the most since 1987.

Commenters mostly fought over whether the headline is the right comparison: capacity factor, build cost, or a portfolio of both.

The breach is in 'OpenCode Console', an OpenRouter-like service where users paste provider API keys so it can proxy their requests. People running only the open-source terminal agent or desktop app are not affected.

Several commenters noted the Console had no visible privacy policy or terms of service and that the team's announcement never drew that line.

The repository holds the full stack: voting, collector admin, processor, auditor, verification, and ID integrations such as Smart-ID and Web eID. It is not used for active development but is kept in sync with what is deployed in elections.

An Estonian resident said he trusts it today, and fears the day that trust goes.

After 32 weeks, the semaglutide group showed a 9% slower pace of aging on the DunedinPACE clock and slowed PCGrimAge, which tracks mortality risk. The senior author's own caveat is explicit: 'We are not saying that semaglutide reverses aging.'

On HN, a geneticist said epigenetic clocks may simply read out things that don't affect healthspan.

She stepped in front of one on Filbert Street just after a flu shot, and refused repeated requests to move and let it finish. Police issued a disorderly conduct notice; Marvin plans to contest it on First Amendment grounds.

HN split between 'sidewalks are for humans' and 'she's protesting the wrong thing'.

1,111 changes carry Assisted-by tags, up from 301 in 7.1, and 252 commits credit the Sashiko review system with the report. LWN says the surge in Fixes tags looks like people using LLMs to hunt bugs in old code.

Its worry: if the flood of patches continues, the kernel could end up with code nobody fully understands.

The author soaked 5 mm slices of Tesco chicken breast in tartrazine at roughly 0.19 M, far below the 0.62 M in the Science 2024 original. After 12 hours the slices turned slightly translucent and a 5 mm grid showed through a 2 mm slice.

Atlas sorts sites into five tiers, from 'activity imminent' to 'no immediate risk'. Sixteen sites in the US, Canada and UK are Tier 1, including EMA4 in Sutton Coldfield and BHX4 near Coventry.

Amazon says it tracks buildings, not individuals, and that Atlas is not used in the UK.

The layer includes Motorola's Vigilant, Genetec, Axis, Axon, Leonardo's ELSAG, Neology, Rekor, PlateSmart, Ubicquia and Verkada. Engadget does not say where the locations come from or how many are mapped.

About 30 devices, from NVIDIA and AMD GPUs to Apple Silicon and cloud H100/H200s, and about 15 models including Qwen, Gemma 4, GPT-OSS and DeepSeek V4. Some numbers come from r/LocalLLaMA and localscore.ai; the rest are projected from hardware specs.

Each compiler stage was compared against tsgo on TypeScript's own test corpus of roughly 12,500 files, and the project reports matching results on the tested cases. No benchmark results are published, only a script to produce them.

A commenter who tested it against the Go build confirmed it is faster than the Go version, but warned the code targets the subset of TypeScript that scriptc supports, so the result may be tuned to the toolchain.
