NVIDIA throws Intel a $5 billion lifeline to build PC and data center CPUs

NVIDIA has today announced it will invest $5 billion in Intel as part of a new collaboration between the two companies. In a statement, NVIDIA said it would work with its ailing rival to ā€œjointly develop multiple generations of custom data center and PC products.ā€ The partnership will focus on "seamlessly integrating" NVIDIA's class-leading GPUs and AI chips with Intel's ailing x86 CPUs. Some of that work will be based on harnessing NVLink, NVIDIA's existing system to marry-up x86 CPUs with its

Gemini AI solves coding problem that stumped 139 human teams at ICPC World Finals

Like the rest of its Big Tech cadre, Google has spent lavishly on developing generative AI models. Google's AI can clean up your text messages and summarize the web, but the company is constantly looking to prove that its generative AI has true intelligence. The International Collegiate Programming Contest (ICPC) helps make the point. Google says Gemini 2.5 participated in the 2025 ICPC World Finals, turning in a gold medal performance. According to Google this marks "a significant step on our p

Coders End, from Typers to Thinkers

After 10 years in software development, wearing different hats, my approach to building changed in 2025. With AI, I’m finally developing the way I’ve long believed we should. From Typers to Thinkers I’ve genuinely come to believe the real value of my craft lies in architecture: how things are thought out, assembled, structured, and named. I have long considered that the technical part of a project was successful when the code was readable, maintainable, with the right abstractions in the righ

MIT-MC CP/M archive files, 1979-1984

MIT-MC CP/M archive files, 1979-1984 This repository contains code, software, and related files developed for the CP/M operating system, created from 1979-1984. It was hosted on the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's MIT-MC (Macsyma Consortium) computer and available on the ARPANET. This was a freeware and shareware "archive" maintained by Frank J. Wancho and Keith Petersen. When the Macsyma Consortium was dissolved in 1983, the files were moved to SIMTEL20. The files available in this rep

Weird CPU architectures, the MOV only CPU (2020)

I like CPU architectures, especially weird, interesting and unusual ones. For example, the Intel iAPX 432 is still something I would love to play around with. Recently, I realized that a working CPU can be made with just a simple Move instruction. For this to work, everything needs to be memory mapped. The ALU, program counter, everything. Of course, this idea is nothing new and this idea is called the Transport Triggered Architecture. I decided to have a look into this, how it works and make a

CPU Utilization is Wrong (2017)

The metric we all use for CPU utilization is deeply misleading, and getting worse every year. What is CPU utilization? How busy your processors are? No, that's not what it measures. Yes, I'm talking about the "%CPU" metric used everywhere, by everyone. In every performance monitoring product. In top(1). What you may think 90% CPU utilization means: What it might really mean: Stalled means the processor was not making forward progress with instructions, and usually happens because it is waitin

Nvidia unveils new GPU designed for long-context inference

In Brief At the AI Infrastructure Summit on Tuesday, Nvidia announced a new GPU called the Rubin CPX, designed for context windows larger than 1 million tokens. Part of the chip giant’s forthcoming Rubin series, the CPX is optimized for processing large sequences of context and is meant to be used as part of a broader ā€œdisaggregated inferenceā€ infrastructure approach. For users, the result will be better performance on long-context tasks like video generation or software development. Nvidia’s

CPR in space could be made easier by chest compression machines

Performing CPR on a space station in microgravity involves doing a handstand on a person's chest and pushing against the walls with your legs – but now researchers say there is a better way Researchers test a chest compression machine on a dummy in an aeroplane CNES Microgravity makes it tricky to do simple tasks like eating, using the toilet and showering, so it is no wonder that performing CPR on someone whose heart stops beating in space is an extremely demanding procedure. But a mechanical

Claude Code: Now in Beta in Zed

You asked for it. A lot. So we built it: our Claude Code integration is now available in public beta, running natively in Zed through our new Agent Client Protocol (ACP). For months, developers have been asking us to bring Claude Code into Zed. We didn’t just want to bolt on a one-off integration; we wanted to build something better. ACP is our new open standard that lets any agent connect to Zed (and other editors, too). Claude Code is a perfect example of what’s possible. Now you can: Run

%CPU utilization is a lie

I deal with a lot of servers at work, and one thing everyone wants to know about their servers is how close they are to being at max utilization. It should be easy, right? Just pull up top or another system monitor tool, look at network, memory and CPU utilization, and whichever one is the highest tells you how close you are to the limits. And yet, whenever people actually try to project these numbers, they find that CPU utilization doesn't quite increase linearly. But how bad could it possibly

Agent Client Protocol (ACP)

The Agent Client Protocol standardizes communication between code editors (IDEs, text-editors, etc.) and coding agents (programs that use generative AI to autonomously modify code). The protocol is still under development, but it should be complete enough to build interesting user experiences using it. AI coding agents and editors are tightly coupled but interoperability isn’t the default. Each editor must build custom integrations for every agent they want to support, and agents must implemen
