Did you ever walk into a conference session thinking you were ready for the week, only to realise the announcements were coming so fast that you almost needed an agent of your own to keep up? That was the mood across Las Vegas, and it was the backdrop for my conversation with Madhu Parthasarathy, the general manager for Agent Core at AWS. He has spent the week at the centre of AWS's wave of agentic AI news, working on the ideas that are already moving from keynotes and demos into the hands of real enterprise teams. Sitting down with him offered a rare moment of clarity among the noise, and his calm take on what actually matters helped bring the bigger picture into focus. Madhu talked through the thinking behind Agent Core and why he believes 2026 will be the year enterprises finally begin shifting from prototypes to production scale agents. He walked me through the two areas customers keep coming back to, trust and performance, and why the new policy framework and agent evaluations could remove long standing barriers to deployment. His examples were grounded in real behaviour he is seeing inside large companies, whether that is internal support workloads, developer productivity, meeting preparation, or customer facing flows designed to reduce the friction between intent and outcome. We also explored the deeper shift introduced by Nova Forge, including the idea of blending enterprise data with model checkpoints to create domain specific agents that can work with greater accuracy and context. Madhu explained why there will never be a one size fits all model and how choice remains central to AWS's approach to agentic AI. My guest also reflected on how infrastructure changes, such as Trainium three ultra servers and expanded Nova model families, are shaping the pace at which companies can experiment, evaluate, and adopt emerging capabilities. Trust surfaced again and again in our conversation. Madhu was clear that non-deterministic systems also introduce concerns, which is why action boundaries and guardrails are becoming as important as model quality. He described the excitement he is seeing from customers who now feel they have workable ways to give agents responsibility without handing over the keys entirely. As he put it, this is the moment where confidence begins to grow because the guardrails finally meet the expectations of enterprise leaders. We closed with the topic many people have been whispering about all week, modernization. Madhu reflected on AWS Transform, the push to help organisations move away from legacy architectures far faster than before, and the impact that agentic systems will have as they support full stack migrations across Windows environments and custom languages. Madhu cuts through the noise with a grounded view of reliable autonomy, multi agent orchestration, policy driven safety, and the shift toward agents as true collaborators. The question now is where you see the biggest opportunity. How might these agent-based systems change your workflows, and what would it take for you to trust them with the tasks you never seem to have time for? I would love to hear your thoughts.
In this episode of 'Cybersecurity Today,' host Jim Love discusses several significant cybersecurity issues. Highlights include a maximum severity vulnerability in React Server Components dubbed React2Shell (CVE-2025-55182), a recently patched Windows shortcut flaw by Microsoft, and new attacks using the Evilginx phishing platform in schools. Additionally, the show explores a long-running campaign by 'Shady Panda,' which used browser extensions to harvest data, and an unexpected failure by Google's AI tool that led to the deletion of a developer's hard drive.

Windows 11 proved the old “Windows 10 is the last version” claim wrong, but was it that claim a lie? I'll look at where it came from, what Microsoft actually said, and how headlines can twist a message.
Most artists quit at the exact moment things are finally about to take off.In this episode, I sit down with Ralph (Bassjackers) and Jobke (Jay Hardway) to talk about momentum, rejection, slow growth, and why consistency always wins in the long run.We dive into how long it actually takes to build a real artist career, the pressure that comes with success, and why the “boring” phase is where most people give up.

The news of AI voice cloning by Michael Caine and Matthew McConaughey met with a mixture of weighing legacy, ownership rights, estates, and the risk of deepfake fraud using celebrities and even podcasters. Chuck Joiner, Marty Jencius, Brian Flanigan-Arthurs, Jeff Gamet, Eric Bolden, Dave Ginsburg, Mark Fuccio, Web Bixby, and Jim Rea debate legal guardrails, fair use, and how cheap tools empower scams. Later, the discussion shifts to reports that London thieves prefer stealing iPhones over Android devices and how social engineering can defeat Apple's security measures.

It's just one week until Australia's controversial social media age restrictions come into force, so I decided to chat with Justin Warren, noted “consultant, freedom of information tragic, hexagon enthusiast, and creator of the CyberRating™ labelling scheme”.It's the first time he's been on the pod this year!In this episode we do indeed talk about the age restrictions which come into force on 10 December. But we also discuss robots, secretive intelligence organisations, the Bureau of Meteorology's website budget overrun, and how Microsoft Windows has become unreliable at the same time as more of the company's software is written by AI.

Avui venim carregats de temes que ho estan sacsejant tot: des de decisions polítiques que afecten milions de joves fins a moviments inesperats de les grans tecnològiques. Començarem amb Austràlia, que ha decidit prohibir les xarxes socials per als menors de 16 anys, una mesura que ha encès un debat global sobre seguretat, educació digital i llibertats individuals. I d'aquí saltarem a la batalla més calenta del moment: OpenAI contra Google. L'arribada de Gemini 3 ha encès el “codi vermell” a OpenAI, just quan ChatGPT compleix tres anys i es prepara per integrar publicitat per primera vegada. Mentre tot això passa, el govern espanyol decideix ajornar fins al 2027 el sistema Verifactu, un alleujament temporal per a autònoms i empreses. Tancarem amb un cop d'ull al mercat mòbil i la connexió: Apple podria superar Samsung aquest 2025, tenim filtracions del futur iPhone 17e i bones notícies per als usuaris d'Android, perquè el punt d'accés està a punt de ser molt més ràpid.
Linux adoption vs. Windows 10 vs. TPM 2.0 vs. Anti-Cheat vs. Steam Machines vs. Windows 11... where does it end? Heck, where does it start? Also: Goat Simulator 3 is broken in the right ways, an Xbox Series X was more expensive than a PS5 Pro there for a little bit, I dug out the entirety of Level 7 in S&Miner and all I have is this screenshot, the next Hitman, the next Dead Rising, and more!

Join Me for the 12-Day Homeschool Mom Self-Care Challenge A homeschool mom self-care challenge that honours you. Homeschool mama, I see you. December is here, and it feels like an avalanche of ALL the things.Every month as a homeschool mom is full, but December? It's a whole new level. You're trying to finish things up, or you’re moving into a unit study on Christmas, you’re purchasing, prepping, planning, and playing—and you just added a part time-job to your full-time job. But as a homeschool mama, when December rolls around, mama ain’t looking after herself, she’s looking, after ALL the things. And though ALL the things are a whole lot of things EVERY other month, December’s ALL the things is an exponential set of things. Though you’re trying to do all the things, fulfill the expectations, and make it magical for your kids, you can’t do a little bit more if you didn’t already incorporate an approach to maintain margins and pursue purposeful living. That's why I'm inviting you to join me for the 12-Day Self-Care Challenge for Homeschool Moms. This isn't another TO DO list. It's a TO GIVE list—a way to give back to yourself. Join the 12 Day Self-Care Challenge Why Self-Care Matters As homeschool moms, we have a unique calling. We're deeply present with our kids, invested in their well-being, and working hard to create meaningful memories and learning experiences. We savor moments of: Watching our kids harmoniously play together (sometimes). Cheering them on as they tackle new challenges. Seeing their excitement as they pursue new interests. Building lifelong memories as a family. But there's another side to this season: The constant stream of emotions (theirs and ours). Sibling squabbles. Complaints and meltdowns. And, of course, the never-ending mundane tasks—laundry, dishes, meals, and errands. Even when we handle these challenges with grace, the emotional and mental investment is enormous. Add the holidays to the mix, and it's no wonder we feel stretched thin. The Secret Ingredient to a (more) Peaceful Holiday Season Here's the thing: you matter too. Your well-being is not just an afterthought—it's the foundation of a happy family life and a peaceful holiday season. Self-care: Refills your energy so you can approach the holidays with calm and joy. Models healthy balance and boundaries for your children. Helps you manage stress and let go of perfection. Strengthens your emotional resilience to handle challenges with patience and grace. Creates space for joy and presence, helping you savor the small, magical moments. When you care for yourself, you're giving your family the best gift of all—a peaceful, grounded, and joyful mama. What You'll Get in the 12-Day Challenge In just fifteen minutes a day—maybe even five—you'll explore simple, practical self-care strategies that fit into your busy December. These strategies aren't just for the holidays; they're tools to carry into the new year, helping you nurture yourself and your family with greater ease and satisfaction. By the end of these 12 days, you'll feel: More energized. More connected to yourself. And more at peace as you move through this beautiful, busy season. And so we must take care of ourselves. Join the 12 Days of Homeschool Mom Self-Care Challenge Join Me—You Deserve This So, homeschool mama, this is your invitation to take a breath, step back, and remember that you are worth nurturing. Let's do this together. This December, give yourself the gift of care, calm, and connection. Join the 12-Day Self-Care Challenge for Homeschool Moms and rediscover the joy of the season—not just for your family, but for you too. Just fifteen minutes a day. You've got this.

Wenn die Digitalisierung fehlschlägt: The London Ambulance System DisasterWas passiert, wenn Politik alles automatisieren will, ein starres Pflichtenheft ohne Tests verabschiedet und eine kleine Agentur in Rekordzeit ein hochkritisches System auf Visual Basic liefern soll? 1992 ging das Notrufsystem des London Ambulance Service mit einem Big Bang Rollout live. Ohne vollwertige Schulung, ohne belastbare Lasttests und ohne echten Backup-Plan. Das Ergebnis: Fehldispatches, endlose Wartezeiten, Ausnahmezustand in der Leitstelle und ein technischer Kollaps durch ein simples Memory Leak.In dieser Episode sprechen wir über den gesamten Projektverlauf vom London Ambulance System Disaster: Von der Zettelwirtschaft mit Förderband über ein überambitioniertes Automatisierungsvorhaben, NIH-Syndrom in der Ausschreibung, unrealistische Deadlines und Budgets, fehlendes Projektmanagement sowie Quality Assurance. Wir beleuchten die Live-Inbetriebnahme im Oktober 1992, GPS- und Statusprobleme in den Ambulanzen, die Exception-Flut auf den Monitoren, das ungetestete Failover und die Folgen für Personal, Vertrauen und Öffentlichkeit.Wir ordnen das Desaster für die Tech Community ein und ziehen Parallelen zu heute: AI- und Cloud-Rollouts ohne Fallback, Fix-forward statt Rollback, End-to-End- und Lasttests mit realistischen Szenarien, SRE-Praktiken, soziotechnische Systeme, UX in kritischen Workflows und die ethische Verantwortung von Entwicklerinnen. Außerdem: moderne Beispiele wie die Boeing 737 Max und Pandemie-Apps, die zeigen, wie zeitlos diese Learnings sind.Bonus: Das Kernsystem lief auf Visual Basic unter Windows 3. Klingt retro, war aber alles andere als ein Retro-Game.Unsere aktuellen Werbepartner findest du auf https://engineeringkiosk.dev/partnersDas schnelle Feedback zur Episode:
Dr. Glen Jeffery, PhD, is a professor of neuroscience at University College London and a leading expert on how different colors (wavelengths) of light impact cellular, organ and overall health. He explains that long-wavelength light (red, near-infrared and infrared) can enter the body and brain to enhance mitochondrial function and thereby improve metabolism, eyesight, blood glucose regulation, mood, hormones and more. We also discuss how short-wavelength light from LED bulbs can impair mitochondrial health and why balanced, full-spectrum light is essential for health. Dr. Jeffery shares simple yet powerful ways to use natural and artificial light sources to enhance your metabolic function, eyesight and longevity.

Windows are pivotal to the lived experience of a home. They impact the basic aesthetic and provide natural light, views, ventilation, and safety. However, they are also nearly always the largest single source of heat loss and gain - it's hard to overstate the importance of getting windows right, as they play a huge role in a building's energy use. Today, we're going to take a deep dive into high-performance architectural windows, exploring the technology that lets us control unwanted heat flow through conduction, convection, and radiation. We'll be looking at the technical specs U-factor, Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC), air leakage and visual transmittance, as well as the fundamental differences between US and European manufacturing philosophies.Article from Passive House Accelerator:How Windows Make (Or Break) Wall PerformanceAndrew DrydenAndrew Dryden is the Owner of Pivot Windows LLC. He is dedicated to promoting sustainable construction practices that enhance energy efficiency and overall building performance. His journey began during a transformative sabbatical year in the Pacific Northwest, where he constructed his own high-performance home.

Small businesses in the U.S. are facing rising costs and job losses, with 70% of owners citing inflation as their primary concern, according to a recent Bank of America study. Despite this, 75% of small business owners remain optimistic about revenue growth in the coming year. However, the disparity in employment trends is stark, as small firms shed 88,000 jobs while larger companies gained 151,000. This economic environment is leading to a reduction in discretionary tech spending, as small businesses prioritize survival and cost control over technology investments.The global tech consulting market is projected to exceed $400 billion in revenue by 2026, driven by a surge in technology upgrades. A report indicates that 84% of buyers plan to upgrade their technology within the next year, with a notable increase in demand for consulting services. However, a significant number of personal computers are delaying upgrades to Windows 11, indicating a gap between modernization goals and actual implementation. This presents an opportunity for IT providers to position Windows 11 migration not merely as an OS upgrade but as essential for achieving desired business outcomes.In the hardware sector, Dell reported record revenues of $27 billion for the quarter ending October 31, 2025, largely attributed to its AI infrastructure business. Conversely, HP announced plans to cut 4,000 to 6,000 jobs as part of a restructuring initiative aimed at enhancing productivity through AI. Both companies are navigating challenges, including a projected memory shortage that could lead to increased prices in the second half of the fiscal year. These developments highlight the shifting dynamics in the tech industry, where AI is reshaping hardware strategies and vendor support is expected to diminish.For Managed Service Providers (MSPs) and IT decision-makers, the current economic landscape necessitates a strategic approach to technology investments. As small businesses tighten their budgets, IT providers must focus on demonstrating the financial impact of their solutions and offering flexible purchasing options. The convergence of rising consulting demand, hardware inflation, and vendor financial repositioning underscores the importance of aligning technology refresh cycles with business outcomes. By proactively addressing these challenges, MSPs can position themselves as essential partners in navigating the complexities of modernization and economic pressure.

The panel begins with Apple Vision Pro, diving into the M5 vs. M2 comparison, app support concerns, frozen iPad-based apps, spatial vs. 3D video, and why personas remain one of the Vision Pro's most underrated features. Several panelists challenge a recent critical article about Vision Pro, noting that the platform is still early and evolving. Next, the group covers iOS 26 beta updates and Apple's Invites app, leading to a comedic sidebar about who exactly uses the app — if anyone. This transitions into a deep (and funny) debate over USB thumb drives, CDs/DVDs, Blu-rays, and digital vs. physical media. From enterprise security to indie concert CDs, everyone shares stories illustrating why physical media is "dead"… or maybe not so dead. More news includes AirTag upgrades that help airlines locate lost luggage, Spotify preparing another round of price increases, and Plex restricting free users from sharing library access — which sparked concerns among Plex users on Apple TV. The crew also reacts to Apple's limited-run $149 iPhone "pocket" accessory, Pocket Casts adding smart playlists, and Peanuts holiday specials becoming Apple TV+ exclusives. The episode wraps with chat room highlights and each panelist sharing where they can be found online. Topics and Links In Touch With Vision Pro this week.

Are we ready for a world where everything is smart? Not just phones and apps, but buildings, robots, and delivery bots rolling down our streets?Windows ... doors ... maybe even towels. And don't forget your shoes.In this episode of TechFirst, I talk with Mat Gilbert, director of AI and data at Synapse, about physical AI: putting intelligence into machines, devices, and environments so they can sense, reason, act, and learn in the real world.We cover why physical AI is suddenly economically viable, how factories and logistics centers are already using millions of robots, the commercial race to build useful humanoids, why your home is the last frontier, and how to keep physical AI safe when mistakes have real-world consequences.In this episode:• Why hardware costs (lidar, batteries) are making “AI with a body” possible• How Amazon, FedEx, Ford, and others are already deploying physical AI at scale• The humanoid robot race: Boston Dynamics, Figure AI, Tesla, and more• Why home robots are so hard, and the “coffee test” for general humanoid intelligence• Physical AI in agtech, healthcare, and elder care• Safety, simulation, and why physical AI can't rely only on probabilistic LLMs• Human–robot teaming and how to build trust in messy, real-world environments• What we can expect by 2026 and beyond in service robots and smart spaces00:00 – Giving AI a body: why physical AI is becoming viable01:00 – Where we are today: factories, logistics, and Amazon's million robots03:30 – The software layer: coordinating robots, routing, and warehouse intelligence06:00 – Cloud vs edge AI: latency, cost, and why intelligence is moving to the edge10:00 – Humanoid robots: bets from Boston Dynamics, Figure AI, and Tesla14:00 – Home robots as the last frontier and the “coffee test” for generality17:00 – Beyond factories: agtech, carbon-killing farm bots, and healthcare use cases18:30 – Elder care, hospital robots, and amplifying human caregivers20:00 – Foundation models for robotics, simulation, and digital twins21:00 – Why physical AI safety is different from digital AI safety22:30 – Layers of safety, shutdown zones, and cyber-physical security risks24:30 – Human–robot teaming, trust, and communicating intent26:00 – What's coming by 2026: service robots, delivery bots, and smart spaces28:00 – Delivery robots, drones, and physical AI in everyday environments29:00 – Closing thoughts on living in a world full of physical AI
Pavan Davuluri only spoke at one Ignite 2025 session, and it did not deserve the hate he got. But what did he really say? Copilot is a front-end for apps and cloud AI services, agents are background processes. Apps in Windows need to become programmatic so AI and agents can control them. You are in control. You being IT and the user. These experiences are off by default, opt-in, and optional. This is the end of whatever BS argument anyone has about this stuff. Copilot Voice because AI is better when you babble and is often more natural than typing Key concept: Apps, CLIs, etc. expect exact commands, AI is all about intent, just do what I want, not exactly what I say. This is why, yes, people WILL want to talk to their PCs (and other devices) UIs for these new features will look/feel natural in Windows Search box in Taskbar is getting updated to orchestrate between local/web search and Copilot capabilities, including agents Agents will appear as app icons in Taskbar when fired, can be check in on, can post notifications for you to attend to Integration of M365 Copilot capabilities with Windows - Better together story, with things like Writing Assistance for every text box Accessibility updates thanks to AI - Fluid Dictation, which is what makes Copilot Voice make so much sense All the security, privacy, and IT management the audience expects Windows Insider Program Dev and Beta builds include Full Screen Experience on all PCs, new Notepad app, more Hardware - Earnings Lenovo PC business up 12 percent to $15.1 billion, 25.6 percent unit share HP up 4 percent to $14.6 billion, but job cuts for AI are coming Dell PC business up 3 percent to $1.41 billion AI and Stuff Microsoft releases local Fara-7B agentic model for computer use ChatGPT's new coding model is optimized for Windows Dear God, you must see Nano Banana Pro to understand Google's lead Google is bringing AirDrop to Android, starting with Pixel.
