Someone open-sourced an Android emulator that runs in Docker.
It's called docker-android. One docker command spins up a complete Android device with ADB port-forwarding, KVM, and GPU acceleration.. fully headless and CI-ready.
100% Open Source.
I've built a full LLM inference engine in C#/.NET 10. From scratch. Not a wrapper - native GGUF loading, BPE tokenizer, attention, KV-cache, SIMD-vectorized CPU kernels, CUDA GPU backend, OpenAI-compatible API. Solo dev, ~2 months, AI-assisted (not vibe-coded!). First preview is out.

Even worse - each neuron that contributes to your cognition and consciousness might contain 100,000 Microtubules - each Microtubule Operating at 10,000,000 oscillations per second - and being Quantum photonic memristers
Good luck with the AGI tho
LINQPad 9 is now fully integrated with
@openrouter. Access all popular AI models with seamless sign-in and no subscription. Play models off against each other with a single click! Chats are fully rewritable and you get total control over system prompts. https://t.co/3l7Z2yogQ9
When Microsoft said WPF couldn't run on macOS and Linux, we proved them wrong.
3 years later, and Fortune 500 companies worldwide trust Avalonia XPF to run their mission-critical apps everywhere. 🚀
Thank you to everyone who supported us on this journey!
Excited to share what my team has been working on lately - Gemini diffusion! We bring diffusion to language modeling, yielding more power and blazing speeds!
🚀🚀🚀
Gemini diffusion is especially strong at coding. In this example the model generates at 2000 tokens/sec, including overheads like tokenization, prefill, safety filters etc.
Agent mode is now available in public preview for all users in Visual Studio 17.14. Agent mode in Visual Studio allows you to define tasks using natural language, with Copilot autonomously planning, editing your codebase, invoking tools, and iterating to resolve issues. Unlike Copilot Chat or Edits, agent mode doesn’t stop at one suggestion or file edit.

Microsoft is porting the TS compiler to Go for a massive native speedup – amazing!
But why not Rust / C# / etc?
Here's @ahejlsberg explanation from his @wesbos interview:
.NET 10 reduces IEnumerable 'penalty' from 83% to 10%
I posted recently how the compiler team are looking to reduce what's known as the abstraction penalty in #dotnet 10.
It looks like things are progressing well so far. I ran the below benchmark (code snippet in 2nd tweet) off main yesterday.
In .NET 9 the cost of looping through an array via IEnumerable was 83% over directly iterating the array, whereas in .NET 10 the cost was only 10% 👏🏻
A bunch of awesome stuff is coming to .net10!
One notable thing: lack of enumerator boxing allocations when iterating over an array via `IEnumerable<T>`. This is awesome!
