It could help with many disorders, including diabetes, obesity, arthritis, heart disease, and certain cancers. The technology offers a precise and safe way to provide healing treatments for a wide range of both acute and chronic maladies - without surgery, and potentially at home with a wearable device. This article discusses in-depth how FUS works and its potential applications. XRobotics' countertop robots are cooking up 25,000 pizzas a month (4 minute read) XRobotics' countertop robot, xPizza Cube, can make up to 100 pizzas an hour. Roughly the size of a stackable washing machine, the xPizza Cube can be retrofitted to work with pies of different sizes and styles. A unit can be leased for $1,300 a month for three years. XRobotics recently raised a $2.5 million seed round - it will use the capital to produce more units and install more robots for customers. 💻 Programming, Design & Data Science Making sense of agentic AI orchestration — and why governance might be the missing piece (Sponsor) AI agents can be productivity multipliers, but oversight is still messy. And when multiple agents work together without proper orchestration, you get autonomous chaos. Camunda's free webinar (June 24) shows how to coordinate AI agents while maintaining control, including real examples of balancing agent autonomy with compliance requirements.

It enables developers to build AI-powered features that work offline, protect privacy, and incur no inference costs. The framework is available for testing starting today through the Apple Developer Program. A public beta will be available through the Apple Beta Software Program next month. container (GitHub Repo) container is a tool for creating and running Linux containers as lightweight virtual machines on macOS. It consumes and produces OCI-compliant container images, so developers can pull and run images from any standard container registry. Developers can also push images to those registries, and run the images in any other OCI-compliant application. container is optimized for Apple silicon. 🎁 Miscellaneous LLMs are cheap (16 minute read) Generative AI is relatively cheap, especially when compared to search APIs. While inference was very expensive at the start of the AI boom, it has since gotten a lot cheaper. The real cost problem will be from the backend services that AI agents will want to access. One Man Armies (4 minute read) This post contains a list of one-person (or mostly one-person) projects. The list includes Stardew Valley, Linux, the first scientific map of the Atlantic Ocean, Rollercoaster Tycoon, and jQuery. Each entry names the project's creator. The list shows how incredible things can be made by a single person. If you care enough about your ideas, they might be worth trying. ⚡ Quick Links Loving TLDR but want more AI?
