The Title Cards in Blade Runner Are Fucking Amazing
Appreciating typography is a study in paradox. The primary goal of well-designed typography is to help you read the words, not appreciate how the words are composed of letters and how each of those individual letters has been designed to convey a small bit of meaning. If you see the typography rather than read the […]
Nvidia’s Vera Whitepaper Has a Thread Loose
Hello you fine Internet folks, NVIDIA has published a 45-page whitepaper explaining Vera, its first server CPU built around the company’s own Olympus core. On paper, Vera is a fascinating chip with an 88-core monolithic compute die, Olympus being a 10-wide Arm v9.2 core that has value prediction, a graph prefetcher, 2 MB of private […]
Prime Agent: A self-improving RLM agent
Today, we are launching Prime Agent, our self-improving coding harness designed around two abstractions, the Recursive Language Model (RLM) [citation] and Continual Harness [citation]. Modern harness designs were built around the capabilities of earlier generations of models, and they do not reflect what frontier models can do today: fixed tool-calling schemas and context compaction force […]
I’m switching my phone from Android to Linux
I’m switching my phone from Android to Linux. – runarcn.no Home Posts Garden RSS 02 Aug, 2026 For the past months or even years, I’ve become more and more dissatisfied with the path Google has taken with the Android Open Source Project (AOSP). Be it the dependency and insane tracking of Google Play Services, locking […]

Zed DeltaDB
Rewind to any edit DeltaDB captures every operation in between commits and gives each one a stable identity, so you can point to the code at any moment in its evolution. Trace code to conversation Every change is linked to the agent conversation that produced it. From any line of code, find the conversation. From […]
Beating GPT-5.6 Sol on retrieval with 100x cheaper open models
“Most teams’ best training data is just sitting in their databases. The problem is that turning raw data into something usable is hard, and letting agents read, search, and mutate data cheaply at scale requires advanced infra. Pointing Castform at Neon skips both.” Ying Hang Seah, cofounder, Castform A ”good agent” needs to be strong […]
Sycophantic AI Decreases Prosocial Intentions and Promotes Dependence (2025)
Abstract:Both the general public and academic communities have raised concerns about sycophancy, the phenomenon of artificial intelligence (AI) excessively agreeing with or flattering users. Yet, beyond isolated media reports of severe consequences, like reinforcing delusions, little is known about the extent of sycophancy or how it affects people who use AI. Here we show the […]
Atlassian Rovo Exfiltrates Data, Bypassing Controls
The injection manipulates Rovo to submit Jira tickets and Confluence documents to the attacker’s website Rovo’s URL retrieval tool is insecure: there are no protections against opening a URL that has been dynamically created by the agent. Here, Rovo is manipulated to append sensitive data to an attacker’s URL. When Rovo calls the insecure tool […]
