Here's your weekend project. Build a fully local, sandboxed AI assistant.
Step-by-step tutorial to build your always-on agent:
🦞 on openclaw
✅ with NVIDIA NemoClaw
✨ using NVIDIA DGX Spark
Get started: https://t.co/EoXBTKpPIh
Qwen3.6 35B-A3B dropped yesterday, so I ran it on 4 GPUs to see how it performs:
🟣 RTX 3090 — 49.78 tok/s, TTFT 852ms
🟡 RTX 4090 — 118.93 tok/s, TTFT 686ms
🟢 RTX 5090 — 160.37 tok/s, TTFT 409ms
🔵 DGX Spark — 59.98 tok/s, TTFT 228ms
I went with ollama as the backend because honestly, it's the easiest way for most people to get started. One command, model pulled, done.
I used Q4_K_M (24GB) across all four cards. The reason is the 3090 and 4090 don't support NVFP4 (only the 5090 and DGX Spark could use it). Keeping the same quant everywhere felt like the fairest way to compare.
And yes, you can absolutely squeeze more performance out of every card with vLLM, SGLang, or TensorRT-LLM. But that's not what this test is about. This is just the out-of-the-box experience for folks who own a GPU and want to try the new model tonight.
“With the release of Aliro 1.0, Nordic gives developers a faster path to adoption,” says Øyvind Strøm, EVP Short-Range at @NordicTweets Semiconductor. "We are delivering a complete, certified software solution that solves the integration of #Aliro and #Matter.”

Feitian’s new Passive Dual-Interface Fingerprint Card meets GDPR requirements, its sensor and SE are elegantly embedded into the smart card carrier tape, enabling seamless integration with existing smart card production lines, payment and PIV identity systems. #trustech
A simple 'Air Trace' tool for Apple VAS certification. It can be completed in one step:
import raw trace from device + raw trace to json format + json format to bytes_txt format (certifier app required)

"Our N-BioCard is a Dual interface payment card that incorporates an extra layer of security in the payment transactions. Cardholders approve the transactions via a fingerprint sensor embedded in the card instead of introducing a PIN in the terminal. "

We’ve seen incredible growth, both in technology and expertise over this time, and are looking forward to what is all still to come.
Thanks to those that made the event a success, and to all those who have spent their careers working with, and developing, the #SmartCard. 👏
🚀 Excited to introduce Qwen-Image-Edit!
Built on 20B Qwen-Image, it brings precise bilingual text editing (Chinese & English) while preserving style, and supports both semantic and appearance-level editing.
✨ Key Features
✅ Accurate text editing with bilingual support
✅ High-level semantic editing (e.g. object rotation, IP creation)
✅ Low-level appearance editing (e.g. addition/delete/insert)
