What this means for operators:
Kosovo isn’t “outsourcing.”
It’s distributed capability.
You’re plugging into a growing tech ecosystem that already works with global clients.
Most companies chasing “cheap talent overseas” are looking in the wrong places.
Meanwhile, Kosovo is quietly becoming one of the smartest talent plays in tech right now.
Not cheap labor.
Undervalued excellence.🧵
This isn’t a local market story.
It’s an export engine.
Nearly 85% of Kosovo tech firms serve international clients, mainly software and digital services.
Global standards are the baseline.
We’re launching full-length, on demand practice exams for standardized tests in @GeminiApp, starting with the SAT, available now at no cost.
Practice SATs are grounded in rigorously vetted content in partnership with @ThePrincetonRev, and Gemini will provide immediate feedback highlighting where you excelled and where you might need to study more.
To try it out, tell Gemini, “I want to take a practice SAT test.”
New breakthrough quantum algorithm published in @Nature today: Our Willow chip has achieved the first-ever verifiable quantum advantage.
Willow ran the algorithm - which we’ve named Quantum Echoes - 13,000x faster than the best classical algorithm on one of the world's fastest supercomputers. This new algorithm can explain interactions between atoms in a molecule using nuclear magnetic resonance, paving a path towards potential future uses in drug discovery and materials science.
And the result is verifiable, meaning its outcome can be repeated by other quantum computers or confirmed by experiments.
This breakthrough is a significant step toward the first real-world application of quantum computing, and we're excited to see where it leads.
This picture sums up Luka Modrić 🐐
A man who’s won:
• Ballon d’Or
• 6 UCLs
• 4 La Ligas
• Took Croatia to a World Cup Final
And yet drops to his knees after 90 minutes vs Napoli, leading Milan to victory.
An absolute Champion 👏🔥
🧵1/5 @GoogleChrome is officially entering its Gemini era ✨
Directly embedded into Chrome, Gemini can now answer questions about your open pages, summarize information from multiple tabs, and help you take action in Google apps like YouTube and Calendar.
Here is a deeper look into some of Chrome's new features:
gpt-oss is out!
we made an open model that performs at the level of o4-mini and runs on a high-end laptop (WTF!!)
(and a smaller one that runs on a phone).
super proud of the team; big triumph of technology.
Previously we shifted from a world where you had to pay for the news to the news being fed to you. Now, we will shift from a world where you had to spend hours researching a topic to having a topic reported to you on command.
Every single one of the 11 Meta superintelligence hires is an immigrant who did their undergrad abroad.
7 China, 1 India, 1 Australia, 1 UK, 1 South Africa.
8 are PhD or PhD dropouts in the US.
Immigration is key to US AI innovation.
Lake Como is one of the most beautiful places in the world.
On the other hand, I just stood in 90° heat for the last hour trying to flag a taxi—only to have 12 Italian drivers tell me “no, you must book in advance” while smoking a cigarette.
Adam Smith is in shambles.
