TL;DR: Proton recently introduced Lumo, a new chatbot service designed with a focus on confidentiality and security. Billed as a "privacy-first" AI tool, Lumo aims to deliver the benefits of modern artificial intelligence without compromising user privacy or misusing personal data. While results may vary, Proton appears confident enough to position Lumo alongside established competitors in the AI market. The idea behind Lumo is that while AI can provide significant opportunities for users and b
The big picture: Since its announcement last year, Windows Recall has faced mounting criticism from privacy experts who have labeled it a potential surveillance tool – despite Microsoft's assurances of airtight security. Now, some developers are taking matters into their own hands, leveraging built-in Windows features to shield users from what many advocates view as a serious intrusion into personal privacy. Signal was one of the first apps to block Windows Recall from capturing screenshots of
Why it matters: A week ago, we highlighted the surprising interview Valve co-founder Gabe Newell gave to a little-known YouTube channel, where he revealed his unconventional daily routine and passion for scuba diving. But beyond the lifestyle quirks lies a deeper, more instructive story – how a chance encounter with Steve Ballmer at Microsoft pulled Newell away from Harvard and into a 13-year tenure at the software giant. That decision not only shaped Newell's personal trajectory but also helped

It’s a dark November night in Los Angeles. The car in front is lit by its rear lights only. After driving for 20 miles, it stops, suddenly, in the middle of the street. A man in a dark t-shirt gets out and runs towards an apartment. A woman appears and jumps up, wrapping her legs around him. They start making out before going to get tacos and, later, returning to her place. At 6 a.m. the next morning his car is still outside the woman’s apartment. A few hours later, they emerge holding hands, h

“That is quite unusual,” said a third private intelligence figure, adding that in the U.S. people are “very open” about having worked for the CIA. America has a “semi-retirement model where when you’re moving out of the agency, you’ll probably spend about six or seven years subcontracting back, and then you’ll finally move into the private sector.” “We don’t do things like that here at all. So, Vauxhall [MI6] will almost never outsource meaningful intelligence work to the private sector,” they

July 27, 2025 The many, many, many JavaScript runtimes of the last decade This last decade has seen an inundation of new JavaScript runtimes (and engines in equal measure), enabling us to run JavaScript in all manner of contexts with precise fitness for task. Through these, we've seen the language spread to the Cloud, the edge, Smart TVs, mobile devices, and even microcontrollers. In this article, we'll explore what's driving this diversity, and why no one runtime or engine suffices for all p

What drives a master inventor? If it’s IBM’s John Werner, it’s both voracious curiosity and a passion for solving real-world problems. These dual drives have resulted in more than 270 patents filed and 139 issued—and in Werner’s being named an IBM Master Inventor in 2018. Today, Werner is a Senior Electromagnetic Compatibility and Product Safety Designer Engineer at IBM, where he specializes in compliance testing and thrives in what he calls the company’s “ecosystem of brilliant minds.” He is

Innovation demands processors that can keep up. Readily available processors are built on technology that is over 70 years old. This limits innovation. To meet modern demands, processors must be entirely reimagined, breaking free from the constraints that have plagued computing for decades. This spatial dataflow architecture supports general-purpose computing, without being bound by the constraints of traditional processor designs or limited by fixed-purpose accelerators.

Vampires, witches, and demons, beware: the Talamasca, a secret group that fans of Interview With the Vampire will already have an inkling about, has you under surveillance. But can the watchers themselves be trusted? The first teaser trailer for Talamasca: The Secret Order, AMC’s latest show in its Anne Rice Immortal Universe, suggests that even those on the inside should definitely watch their backs. The trailer heavily features a very blonde Elizabeth McGovern doing her best to recruit Nichol
After teasing us last year with Lestat’s transformation from the Brat Prince to an even brattier music idol, AMC returned to San Diego Comic-Con to really bare the fangs for Interview With the Vampire‘s third season. Officially being dubbed The Vampire Lestat for the Anne Rice novel the season will draw on, Interview With the Vampire‘s third season will see Sam Reid’s vamping vamp react to his portrayal in Daniel Molloy’s Interview With the Vampire book (first, he’s busy guest starring in the t
The USCSS Maginot, a Weyland Yutani research vessel, crashed into the large lawn next to Hall H at San Diego Comic-Con this weekend. Onlookers remarked they hoped there was nothing dangerous on board, as containers had spilled all over the surrounding area. That’s both the tease for a very cool activation put together by FX for its new show, Alien: Earth, as well as the setup for Alien: Earth itself. The show, which debuts August 12, centers on a crashed ship and all the horrors that it contain
As of 2023, the US has around 142.3 million housing units: roughly one home for every 2.4 people in the country. The vast majority of these homes – 127.5 million – are occupied. The remaining 14.8 million homes are vacant. Of these, around 4.8 million homes, or around 3.5% of the total, are vacant because they’re seasonal, or vacation, homes. I’ve spent a lot of time writing about patterns of housing and home construction in the US, but virtually none of it has been looking at vacation homes sp
