OpenAI shares new results on long-standing open problems in mathematics and theoretical computer science, including advances in geometry, cryptography, and complexity.
If you've picked LangChain over CrewAI (or vice versa) partly for "security reasons," this preprint is worth five minutes. I ran a controlled evaluation — 6 LLMs, 6 agent execution conditions, 5 attack families, 7,020 payload-verified trials — to isolate what actually explains security outcomes in agentic AI systems. The headline: framework choice explains about 0.06% of the variance (not statistically significant, p ≈ 0.70). Attack family explains ~29%. Model explains ~4%. In plain terms: which
You found a public collection of AI agent definitions — maybe for Claude Code, maybe for Codex — and one looks like the role you're missing. The fast path: copy the file into your agents directory and try it. That path skips every step that would tell you what the file does before it runs with your permissions. TL;DR: Treat every external AI agent definition as untrusted input until you've read the whole file, not the README. Check what it claims to read, write, and execute against what your hos
This is a submission for Frontend Challenge: Comfort Food Edition, CSS Art: Comfort Food A paper tray of poutine: 50 fries, 13 cheese curds, 11 patches of gravy, a ribbon of it still pouring in, and steam coming off the top. No images, no SVG, no canvas. Every edible object on screen is an <i> or a <b> shaped with CSS. I picked poutine because it is the worst-behaved food I could think of, and that turns out to be the interesting part. A croissant is a silhouette problem — get the outline right

This is a submission for Frontend Challenge: Comfort Food Edition, Perfect Landing: Comfort Food Gravy Boat — a landing page for a fictional poutinerie. One truck, four corners, sells exactly one thing and has opinions about it. The hero isn't a photograph. It's the CSS poutine I built for the other half of this challenge — 50 fries, 13 curds, no images — wired to a slider. Drag Gravy level from Dry to Drowned and the sauce on the plate responds. I wanted the interactive bit to be something that
Every bug has a story. Here is the technical breakdown of how we caught a cascading React state re-render storm, eliminated a 1.4GB memory leak using Sentry, and crushed an 8.4-second diagnostic latency down to 1.1 seconds using Google AI. The Chaos How Google AI Transformed the App Gemini 2.5 Flash: Utilized for fast initial triage and native structured JSON schema enforcement (responseMimeType: 'application/json' + responseSchema). MedGemma 27B: Leveraged for System 2 Chain-of-Thought (CoT) c
We're a team of 15-year-old students who ran into the same frustration every time we sat down to study: having to constantly switch between four different apps just to review for one test. Quizlet, Khan Academy, Notion, and Gizmo are all great, but each only handles one piece of the puzzle. That’s why we created Reviscio—a free, all-in-one study platform that brings notes, flashcards, quizzes, exam prep, personalized practice, and mini-games together into one place. Help us build the "Duolingo o
