The Isle of May, a small island in the Firth of Forth known for its lighthouse and large seabird colony, is opening to visitors as part of an Open Doors heritage event. The island's history includes its wartime role, its working lighthouse, and its population of roughly 200,000 seabirds including puffins.
A developer rebuilt their personal blogging platform, bloffy.co, after removing Next.js, and reports the site now scores 100 across every Lighthouse category on pagespeed.web.dev. The post describes dissatisfaction with existing blog platforms like Medium, Blogger, WordPress, Ghost, and Hugo, and credits caching improvements as central to the performance gains.
Research firm Aterio says Oracle's Project Lighthouse datacenter in Port Washington, Wisconsin, developed with Vantage, may miss its planned second-half 2027 opening because American Transmission Company still needs Public Service Commission approval to build the site's grid connection. Aterio also noted Oracle recently sent a force majeure notice to a Blue Owl Capital subsidiary over its Project Jupiter campus in New Mexico, seeking to defer payments if that site isn't ready on time, though Oracle maintains Jupiter remains on schedule.
Executives from Whalar Group's The Lighthouse, Pie, and Peach & Lily convened to discuss how influencer marketing is evolving beyond traditional sponsored posts. The panel addressed how brands should select creators, structure longer-term partnerships, and produce content that feels genuine rather than promotional.
