Nearly a decade ago, a major financial services firm faced an AWS account manager during an aggressive cloud migration. AWS advised to keep it simple, run everything on AWS, and avoid other clouds.

Cython has been the most viable option for converting Python code to C, but PythoC could change that—with distinct compile-time advantages. We also have a first look at Databot, a new LLM add-on for the Positron IDE; a chance to learn the finer points of debug logging in Python and Java; and a report on

Cloudflare CEO Matthew Prince says in a new interview with Wired that the company has blocked more than 416 billion AI bot requests since July 1, 2025. It’s all part of the company’s initiative to help customers stop AI bots from scraping their content without payment. According to Prince, AI represents a platform shift that

Microsoft believes it has a fix for AI prompts being given, the response missing the mark, and the cycle repeating. This inefficiency is a drain on resources. The “trial-and-error loop can feel unpredictable and discouraging,” turning what should be a productivity booster into a time sink. Knowledge workers often spend more time managing the interaction

NASA has lost contact with one of its three spacecraft orbiting Mars, the agency announced Tuesday. Meanwhile, a second Mars orbiter is perilously close to running out of fuel, and the third mission is running well past its warranty. Ground teams last heard from the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution, or MAVEN, spacecraft on Saturday,
