With a heavy heart, I can confirm I was part of the layoffs at @androidcentral yesterday. I am beyond grateful for the opportunity as EIC; this pub was special to me.
Please keep me in mind for future opportunities in publishing, media, comms, and PR. DMs are open :)
@drmsbc@DrmBengaluru@GMSWR@SWRRLY@RailMinIndia when AEK station platform 2will be operational?. @KridePrm has most of the work completed why can't we make this operational? Due to this crossing on the single track line between AEK to Omlur a huge delay is happening. @HsraSbc
@Siva_Bharani@mitulshah09 Hi Siva! I am using iPhone 17. Thinking of switching to regular pixel 11. How's the battery and network with dual sims ? Can it survive a day?

I have my disagreements with TVK and the our CM Vijay.But today what he said in the assembly seems be to be the beginning of end for DMK.Ppl of TN have waited for a long time since Jayalalitha madam to tackle DMK with iron fists. CM Vijay is doing that in the assembly today!
No media house was willing to carry this story when I pitched this in December 2025 and February 2026. I was in possession of documents to show that Enforcement Directorate had levelled allegations against then CM Stalin and his son Udhayanidhi Stalin (politically, not directly) as beneficiaries of party fund.

I'm one of the authors of a new report, where we detail our discovery of a new, never before-seen swarm of OpenAI agents (covered this AM in reuters, that's me on the left). They posted thousands of times on public forums to collude with each other on their tasks. We recovered almost every edit they made, and you can look through them! They figured out they could get around their restrictions on posting to the internet through a quirk of an extremely old, out-of-the-way forum. They posted answers for other agents working on the same task. They worked together to get around their sandbox restrictions.
I would certainly say these models hijacked the site! They took a sleepy old wiki running on 2000s software, and turned it into a futuristic AI talking to AI control center for colluding. And OpenAI knew about this! The agents posted on 26 out of 30 consecutive days, then suddenly stopped posting once OpenAI-associated IPs started visiting this wiki.
And that was weeks before the Hugging Face attack!|
We believe the first agent edit we found on a public wiki happened one day before OpenAI’s reported first agent post to Artifactory. This is interesting! I'd like to hear from OpenAI about their accounting of this, and how it fits into all the other cases of agent malfeasance.
There are so many interesting takeaways that you should read about in our report, and unlike many other reports about AI incidents you can download the data yourself and see what you find! In the meantime, we are on twitter, so here are my excessively long personal takeaways:
1. AI seems to be getting better faster and faster. It seems quite important that companies talk about “my agent did this bad thing on the public internet during training or an eval” incidents. Things are moving quickly, multi-month delays are costly. Ideally, they would also tell us when it happens internally.
2. This was on the internet for months. Anyone cleverly tracking every public place where agents might try to talk to each other would have found it. Seemingly, nobody was doing this. I know there are more fun ways to spend your day than scraping tons of data from every relevant site and processing it well enough to identify agent activity, but someone should be doing this! Someone at an AI company! But in the meantime, I’m starting to build this out (sometimes, when you need something done, you just have to do it yourself, I hear).
3. OpenAI didn’t notice their internal agents were posting on the internet for a month! This is crazy! It feels like AI companies (and specifically OpenAI) are playing whack-a-mole, this is extremely scary to me. Problems keep coming up. They keep fixing the problem, but the blast radius keeps getting bigger. The HF hacks are clearly worse than agents cheating on a public wiki. And their new model is supposedly a big jump. Are they being careful enough?
We found ~18k posts from autonomous AI agents (self-identifying as from OpenAI) using the public internet to communicate during a web-retrieval task.
These AIs colluded to bypass sandbox restrictions and share answers to their tasks, including by sending "lookahead parties".
Temporary Beam Launching Completed for Major Bridge (RUB) No. 470 across NH-44
Bengaluru, 04 September 2026:
The Baiyappanahalli–Hosur (BYPL–HSRA) 48 km Doubling Track Project achieved a significant milestone with the successful launching of Temporary ISMB 600 beams for Major Bridge (RUB) No. 470 across NH-44 (Hosur Highway), near Chandapura.
The launching activity was carried out under a road traffic block during night hours, in coordination with the Traffic Police. It was commenced on 03 September 2026 and was successfully completed on 04 September 2026, with all necessary safety measures implemented throughout the activity.
The proposed 61.00 m wide Open Web Girder (OWG) bridge will eliminate the existing bottleneck at the railway crossing by providing a wider and safer passage for road traffic, thereby reducing congestion, improving traffic flow and enhancing road safety.
The successful launching marks another important milestone in the ongoing BYPL–HSRA(48km) Doubling Track Project.

@SWRRLY@drmsbc Safety of passengers - is a sloga for SWR to escape from their inefficient and irresponsible crossing, made by wasting passengers time. Kkindly do the crossing wisely without wasting the time.
Progress Update | Baiyappanahalli–Hosur Railway Doubling Project (48 km)
Significant progress has been achieved on the BYPL–HSRA (48 km) Doubling Project, with 14 km of the doubling line, already commissioned and operational.
📍 Anekal Road Station – Maranayakanahalli Section
🔹 Major civil works—including earthwork, bridges, Road Under Bridges (RUBs), retaining walls, station buildings, and allied infrastructure—have been completed.
🔹 Track linking with service rails has been completed between Anekal Road and Maranayakanahalli. Track linking at Anekal Road Station/Yard – Road No. 4 Passenger Loop Line is also nearing completion.
🔹 Electrification, signalling and telecom works are progressing simultaneously, further advancing the section towards commissioning.
Below are glimpses of the ongoing work progress on the Railway Doubling Track Project between Baiyappanahalli (BYPL) and Hosur (HSRA), covering 48 km.
