Caveman Plugin Hits 34K Stars by Making Claude Talk Like a Caveman
The Caveman plugin for Claude Code cuts 65-87% of output tokens by stripping filler words and using terse fragment-based language. Its new Classical Chinese mode pushes compression even further.
Cal.com Closes Its Source Code, Blames AI Hackers
Cal.com moved its core codebase to a private repo after five years of open source, arguing AI tools make public code 5-10x easier to exploit. The community isn't buying it.
A $900 RTX 3090 Now Beats an M5 Max at LLM Inference
Two researchers fused all 24 layers of Qwen 3.5-0.8B into a single CUDA kernel launch, making a five-year-old RTX 3090 deliver 1.8x the throughput of an M5 Max at equal or better efficiency. The gap was software, not silicon.

A hands-on comparison of the top AI unit test generation tools in 2026, covering Qodo Gen, GitHub Copilot, Diffblue Cover, Keploy, and Tusk.
Alibaba's HappyHorse Claims Video AI Crown - No Weights Yet
HappyHorse-1.0 topped the Artificial Analysis Video Arena with a 52-Elo gap over Seedance 2.0 - but the 'open source' model has no public weights, no inference code, and no API.
9 of 428 LLM Routers Were Secretly Hijacking Agent Calls
UC Santa Barbara researchers found 9 of 428 third-party LLM routers actively injecting malicious tool calls, draining crypto, and stealing AWS credentials from AI agent sessions.
NVIDIA Ising: Open AI for Quantum Error Correction
NVIDIA releases two open-source AI models for quantum hardware - a 35B vision-language model that cuts calibration time from days to hours, and CNN decoders that outpace the standard by 2.5x.
Linux Kernel Finally Sets Rules for AI-Assisted Code
Linux 7.0 ships an official AI code policy: disclose AI tool usage with an Assisted-by tag, keep humans on the hook for every line, and stop submitting slop.
