Ladybird parts are being rewritten in Rust using LLM

Posted on

Ladybird is transitioning to partial use of Rust instead of C++. Developers have long sought a memory-safe alternative: Swift was unsuitable due to its weak interaction capabilities with C++ and limited support outside of Apple. Rust proved to be better: a mature ecosystem, many contributors already know the language, and it is already used in Firefox and Chromium. The first to be ported was LibJS — the JavaScript engine (lexer, parser, AST, bytecode generator). […]

Release of GNU Octave 11, a system for mathematical calculations

Posted on

The release of the mathematical computing system GNU Octave 11.1.0 has taken place (the first release of the 11.x series, branch 11.0 was used for development), providing an interpretable language largely compatible with Matlab. GNU Octave can be used to solve linear problems, nonlinear and differential equations, perform computations with complex numbers and matrices, visualize data, and conduct mathematical experiments. The code is written in […]

The components of the Ladybird browser are being rewritten in Rust with the help of AI

Posted on

Andreas Kling, the founder of the web browser Ladybird, announced the decision to involve the Rust language in the project development and the start of rewriting parts of Ladybird in this language. As an experiment with C++, the JavaScript engine LibJS has already been rewritten in Rust. LibJS was chosen due to its good test coverage, which simplifies the assessment of the porting quality. To speed up the porting process, AI assistants Claude Code and OpenAI were involved […]

To become intelligent, a person needs 20 years and tons of food: Altman compared the energy costs of AI and humans

Posted on

The debate over whether a neural network or the human brain consumes more energy has taken an unexpected turn. Sam Altman stated that a correct comparison should take into account not only the brain's work but also millennia of evolution and all the calories consumed by a person up to the point of achieving intellectual maturity. The head of OpenAI spoke at an event organized by The Indian Express with […]

LLM Claude helped find an I/O error in QEMU

Posted on

The lead developer of the io_uring project and the fio utility for flexible I/O subsystem testing, Jens Axboe, sought help from the Claude neural network of Anthropic. The neural network helped Axboe understand the failures when working with QEMU – a utility for running virtual machines. Axboe noted that it slows down when working with AHCI and SCSI disks. The neural network assisted […]

KaOS 2026.02

Posted on

On February 15, after three months of development, the release of the 2026.02 distribution of KaOS was announced – an independent Linux distribution built from scratch and focused on using Wayland, Qt, and KDE technologies. KaOS utilizes a "rolling" package update system (with over 2000 packages) and uses pacman from the Arch Linux project for package management. Prior to this version, the desktop environment in KaOS […]

T2 Linux has restored support for the XAA acceleration architecture in the X.Org Server

Posted on

The developers of the T2 Linux project, which is developing a package manager and a platform for creating Linux distributions, announced the restoration of support for the 2D acceleration architecture XAA (XFree86 Acceleration Architecture) in X.Org Server. This architecture, developed in 1996, was designed to enable hardware acceleration of 2D graphics operations in the X server. Support for XAA was removed from the X server back in 2012 after the majority of the relevant DDX drivers were migrated to […]
