Surprising Signs of an Atmosphere Around a Tiny World, Billions of Miles Away (7 minute read)
Japanese astronomers have discovered a small world about 3.5 billion miles from the Sun that appears to be swaddled in a layer of air. The discovery of an atmosphere is surprising, as the 300-mile-wide celestial body shouldn't have a strong enough gravitational pull to keep it in place. Also, temperatures in that quadrant are so cold that most of the molecules that exist as gases in Earth's atmosphere freeze solid. The atmosphere is very thin, with only a few gas molecules to exert any pressure.

Even if AI produces code that's just as easy to maintain as human-written code, the productivity gains don't last. Chase improvements to coding speed, but spend just as much time chasing improvements to maintenance costs as well.

Learning on the Shop floor (10 minute read)
River is an AI agent that lives in Shopify's company Slack. It can read code, run tests, write code, open pull requests, query data, look up production traces, and a lot more. River only works in the open - it doesn't respond to direct messages. This helps employees learn from each other faster and more effectively than if they were using the agent privately. The agent's success comes from Shopify's employees watching each other interact with it.

Apple has long been TSMC's top customer, but soaring demand means that Apple no longer has the leverage to secure the supplies it needs. CEO Tim Cook has blamed the lack of availability of advanced chips for the company's inability to meet customer demand for iPhones.
