Moderna gets $50 million to develop mRNA Ebola vaccine against Bundibugyo (3 minute read)

The Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI) has pledged a little over $60 million to accelerate the development of three vaccine candidates against the Bundibugyo ebolavirus (BDBV). There are currently two licensed vaccines against Ebola, but they both target a different strain. The lack of medical interventions is allowing the virus to spread out of control in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The disease is spreading in an area with armed conflict, large population mobility, and significant need for humanitarian assistance.
BYD plans to bring all-solid-state batteries to EVs by 2027, but it's not alone (4 minute read)

Several EV manufacturers plan to deploy vehicles with all-solid-state batteries in just a few months. The technology enables a driving range of over 1,000 kilometers. The first models to launch with the new battery technology will likely come from BYD's high-end sub-brands before trickling down to mass-market vehicles. Other manufacturers racing to introduce next-generation EV batteries include SAIC Motor and Changan Automobile.

Rethinking Search as Code Generation (34 minute read)

Perplexity's Search as Code (SaC) is a new search architecture that empowers models to reach into the search stack itself rather than merely consume the final outputs. It exposes the components of the search stack as primitives within an SDK that can be assembled on demand through code generation and execution within a secure sandbox into retrieval pipelines tailored to specific requests. This article describes SaC's design and implementation and provides benchmark results. SaC establishes a new cost performance frontier for agent search.
The mathematics of multi-tenancy (9 minute read)

An S3 customer's bucket migration resulted in a swarm of 503 errors coming from S3 due to the way S3 prevents users from explicitly defining partitions. S3 doesn't let users control partitioning because it would result in unpredictable usage patterns. This article looks deeper into the reasons why multi-tenancy works for S3 and presents a statistical model for better understanding multi-tenancy.

The Newest Instagram "Exploit" is the Goofiest I've Seen (3 minute read)

The recent slew of Instagram account takeovers was due to the exploitation of a simple vulnerability. Attackers simply tried to log onto target accounts using a VPN in a location close to the target and then told the Meta support AI that the account was hacked and to send verification codes to another email. There were no checks to see whether the emails belonged to the accounts. The vulnerability seems to have been patched, but it was exploited to take over accounts to be flipped or used for propaganda.
Why It Matters if OpenAI or Anthropic Wins the IPO Race (5 minute read)

Research has shown that IPOs tend to come in industry clusters. Companies listed later in a cycle don't tend to perform as well. Even in a hot market, there's only so much money going around. The first company that goes up is likely to absorb more of the increasingly scarce capital.
