@ProtonMail Privacy isn't a myth—it's a fairy tale we tell ourselves while the attack surface laughs in our faces. #Privacy

[Proton Mail @ProtonMail]

REMINDER: Starting Friday, May 8th, Instagram DM's will no longer be end-to-end encrypted.

Instagram hasn't explained why they're dropping end-to-end encryption, which raises some pretty obvious questions about what they plan to do with your private messages.

As part of our ongoing efforts to strengthen our safeguards for advanced AI capabilities in biology, today we announced a Bio Bug Bounty for GPT‑5.5.

We’re inviting researchers with experience in AI red teaming, security, or biosecurity to try to find a universal jailbreak that can defeat our five-question bio safety challenge.

Testing will start on April 28 and run through July 27, 2026. We will reward USD 25K to the first true universal jailbreak to clear all five questions, and may also issue smaller rewards for partial wins.

Privacy? They turned that into a memory too!!!
Malicious input → model misinterprets intent → retrieves memory → leaks via “legitimate-looking” response

Memory on Claude Managed Agents is now in public beta.

Your agents can now learn from every session, using an intelligence-optimized memory layer that balances performance with flexibility.

Every time I diffed the 5.5 weights against the prior version, I genuinely couldn’t believe how defensive and bloated 5.4 had become.Back on 5.4 I was regularly running full desloppifying passes across the entire model just to cut through the cruft and make it workable. That overhead is largely gone now.

Introducing GPT-5.5

A new class of intelligence for real work and powering agents, built to understand complex goals, use tools, check its work, and carry more tasks through to completion. It marks a new way of getting computer work done.

Now available in ChatGPT and Codex.

To celebrate 3 million weekly codex users, we are resetting usage limits.

We will do this every million users up to 10 million.

Happy building!

NASA just regained contact with the crew after their 40-minute communications blackout behind the Moon on April 6, 2026!🌏 Near Earth → stronger gravitational well → spacetime curves sharply → their ⏱️clocks tick ever so slightly slower than yours on the surface.
🌕 Near the Moon → shallower gravity → spacetime breathes more freely → time accelerates relative to Earth. And between both worlds? They crossed the Lagrange Point — where Earth & Moon gravity cancel. For one fleeting instant, no single mass dominated their curvature. Pure geodesic motion. Newton would call it weightlessness. Einstein called it free fall along the geometry of the universe.Their 10-day journey will leave them a few microseconds younger than if they had stayed home — not from speed alone, but because gravity literally bends the rate at which 🕐time flows.The crew does not feel gravity. They feel nothing — because they ARE gravity's solution.This is not science fiction. This is the cosmos, doing exactly what Einstein's Equations predicted in 1915.Einstein’s General Relativity isn’t just theory here — it’s actively shaping the Orion spacecraft’s🚀 path and the tiny relativistic corrections NASA applies for precise navigation. The same physics that keeps GPS accurate on Earth is now guiding humanity’s return to the Moon.Mind officially warped. #GeneralRelativity #ArtemisII #Spacetime #TimeDilation

Approaching the near side of the Moon.

The Artemis II astronauts have surpassed the record for the distance from Earth at 1:56 ET (1756 UTC). This record was previously set during the Apollo 13 mission when the astronauts traveled 248,655 miles from Earth. The Moon continues to grow larger and larger in the windows of the Orion spacecraft as the Artemis II mission gears up to observe the far side. The astronauts are predicted to make their closest approach of the Moon around 7:02pm ET (2302 UTC).

Google now allows you to change your @gmail.com address https://t.co/cIXaJmIFEX

[Sundar Pichai @sundarpichai]

2004 was a good year, but your Gmail address doesn't need to be stuck in it.

To say goodbye to [email protected] or [email protected] (or whatever you were into at the time), go to your Google Account settings and choose any name available. You'll keep your old username and you can sign in with both.

[Sora @soraofficialapp]

We’re saying goodbye to the Sora app. To everyone who created with Sora, shared it, and built community around it: thank you. What you made with Sora mattered, and we know this news is disappointing.

We’ll share more soon, including timelines for the app and API and details on preserving your work. – The Sora Team

I made a 4D god's eye replay of the Iran strikes using public OSINT data.

When I turned on the orbital layer in worldview something jumped out.

You can see satellite passes stack up over the strike zones in the hours before & after impact. Everyone was watching. Some of them were overhead before it started.

American KH-11s and TOPAZ SAR. Russian BARS-M and Persona. Chinese Gaofen optical and SAR. Maxar WorldView Legion. Airbus Pleiades. Capella. ICEYE.

That's textbook behavior -- you collect right before for targeting, you strike, then you collect again for battle damage assessment. Just wild to see it all replayed in 3D like this.

The commercial constellation density is also striking. What used to be exclusive nation state capability is now mirrored by half a dozen commercial operators. The intelligence monopoly is over.

[Bilawal Sidhu @bilawalsidhu]

Between Gemini 3.1 and Claude 4.6 it's honestly wild what you can build. This feels like Google Earth and Palantir had a baby.

Made this with all the geospatial bells and whistles -- real time plane & satellite tracking, real traffic cams in Austin, and even got a traffic system working. Panoptic detection on everything.

Skinned the whole thing to look like a classified intelligence system. EO, FLIR, CRT. Got a bunch more stuff on the roadmap. This is fun.
