SAP Exec: Get Ready to Be Fired Because of AI

futurism.com Frank Landymore 2025-10-03 02:15:00

A key executive at Europe’s biggest software company is sending a clear message: your job can and will be done with AI. In a provocative interview with Business Insider, SAP chief finance officer Dominik Asam was asked if the goal of the company’s push to use AI coding tools was to produce more code with the same number of employees. That’s when he laid out the ruthless calculus. By using AI, “there’s more automation, simply,” Asam replied. “There are certain tasks which are automated and for

Broker-Side SQL Filtering with RabbitMQ Streams

news.ycombinator.com David Ansari 2025-09-29 11:25:27

RabbitMQ 4.2 introduces SQL filter expressions for streams, enabling powerful broker-side message filtering. In our benchmarks, combining SQL filters with Bloom filters achieved filtering rates of more than 4 million messages per second — in highly selective scenarios with high ingress rates. This means only the messages your consumers actually care about leave the broker, greatly reducing network traffic and client-side processing overhead.

Oldest Shell Jewelry Workshop in Western Europe Dates Back 42,000 Years

gizmodo.com Margherita Bassi 2025-10-03 02:00:15

Between 55,000 and 42,000 years ago, the Châtelperronian people lived in what is now modern-day France and northern Spain. Their tool industry is among the earliest known from this part of the world during the Upper Paleolithic, a time spanning 55,000 and 42,000 years ago. And as new research suggests, Châtelperronians also had a knack for shell-based jewelry. Researchers excavating at the Palaeolithic site of La Roche-à-Pierrot in Saint-Césaire on France’s Atlantic coast have discovered pigmen

China Finds Ingenious Solution for Its Decommissioned Wind Turbine Blades

gizmodo.com Margherita Bassi 2025-10-03 04:00:32

Many wind turbine blades in China are approaching retirement, and researchers have come up with a creative way to reuse the giant components. In a study published earlier this summer in the journal International Soil and Water Conservation Research, scientists suggest repurposing decommissioned wind turbine blades in sand control measures. Namely, in sand barriers. The approach could be the solution to two problems: dealing with old blades and finding optimal sand control measures. “Wind turbi

150 million-year-old pterosaur cold case has finally been solved

One hundred and fifty million years ago, the Solnhofen Limestones of Germany were covered in small islands and warm saltwater lagoons. Coral reefs flourished with crinoids, sponges, jellyfish, and crustaceans; Dragonflies buzzed above the water as small reptiles sunned themselves at the water’s edge. Pterosaurs and Archaeopteryx took to the skies, but there was trouble in this Jurassic paradise: Tropical storms would turn it into a pterosaur graveyard. What paleontologist Rab Smyth found in thi

“One of the key things to understand about cybersecurity is that it’s a mind game,” Ami Luttwak, chief technologist at cybersecurity firm Wiz, told TechCrunch on a recent episode of Equity. “If there’s a new technology wave coming, there are new opportunities for [attackers] to start using it.” As enterprises rush to embed AI into their workflows — whether through vibe coding, AI agent integration, or new tooling — the attack surface is expanding.

Thoughts on its role and impact on the web’s landscape. As many of you know, I am skeptical of the concept of relying on someone else’s computer, especially when a service grows to the point where it becomes an oligopoly, or worse, a monopoly. Cloudflare is, in my view, on track to becoming precisely that. As a result, I would argue they are a net negative for the internet and society at large.

Samsung Galaxy Buds3 FE Review: Better AirPods for Android

I’ve been very impressed with Samsung’s third-gen wireless earbuds. The Galaxy Buds3 Pro ($190), which were released in 2024, were a solid AirPods Pro competitor for Android owners. Now, they’ve been joined by the Galaxy Buds3 FE, a new entry-level model that looks nearly identical to the Buds3 Pro but trades away a lot of bells and whistles for a more accessible price: $150.

When this EV maker collapsed, its customers became the car company

Cristian Fleming paid around $70,000 for his dream car, a Fisker Ocean. He was drawn to the new EV’s 350-mile range, eco-friendly image, and quirky features like “California Modes,” which rolls down nearly every window at once. “I’ve always bought my cars because I love the way they look,” Fleming says. “That’s probably my first mistake.” But his joy soon turned sour. In June 2024, seven months after Fleming’s purchase, Fisker collapsed into bankruptcy, having only delivered 11,000 vehicles.
