Tasogare kaitsuki🦊🎭 🥼 (@tasokait) reportedthere is nothing else to be added to spout2pw, except pre-multiplied alpha on obs-pwvideo so from now on, I will just bug fix and maintain for different proton versions 11 onward, until at some point I just add pre-multiplied alpha on obs-pwvideo. I need a little break from github development to get to my IRL stuff.

AFRICA IS HOME GLOBAL (@AfricaisHOME2) reportedNvidia-backed AI code review startup CodeRabbit just raised a big new round that values it at $1.5 billion, marking a major step up for the 2-year-old company. The deal highlights how investors are betting on the next bottleneck in AI coding: not generating code, but reviewing it. With tools like GitHub Copilot, Cursor, and Claude Code letting developers ship code much faster, teams have hit a wall in pull requests and quality checks. CodeRabbit positions itself as the governance layer in between, a context-aware AI reviewer that understands a company’s codebase, flags bugs, security issues, and style problems, and drops feedback directly in IDEs, CLI, and *** platforms. The company, founded in early 2023 by Harjot Gill after he sold Netsil to Nutanix, has grown fast on that thesis. It announced a $60 million Series B led by Scale Venture Partners with participation from NVentures, Nvidia’s venture arm, plus CRV, Harmony Partners and others, bringing total funding to $88 million. At the time that round valued CodeRabbit at $550 million. Revenue is growing about 20% month-over-month and ARR has topped $15 million. More than 8,000 companies including Chegg, Groupon, Life360 and Mercury now use it, and over 100,000 open-source projects run it on GitHub Marketplace. Customers report big speedups, Groupon cut review-to-production time from 86 hours to 39 minutes. CodeRabbit says teams using it can cut human reviewers in half, and it’s doubling headcount to keep up with demand as vibe coding pushes more AI-generated code into production. - World Business News.

0xFoX ⟠ (@Sprawl__Network) reported@GibCryptoNews @chainspect_app @CronosApp This is what my private model, specifically trained for blockchain analysis and GitHub analysis, says: The numbers tell a very different story. Cronos is not literally bankrupt. But if we're talking about the original thesis of Cronos as a major L1 ecosystem, it looks like a failure. Today, Chainspect shows: • 0.25 TPS • 891 transactions/hour • 5,390 theoretical TPS • $95.45 on-chain revenue/day • $0.00445 average tx fee • 19,487 commits across 29 repos • 662 developers That means Cronos is using roughly 0.005% of its theoretical transaction capacity. They built a highway for thousands of cars per second and almost nobody is driving on it. Now compare that with Cronos' own numbers from 2022: 2022: • $4.8B TVL • 480,000 tx/day • 900k+ users • 300+ dApps 2026: • ~$254M TVL • ~18,500 tx/day • ~2,750 active addresses/day • ~$688k DEX volume/day • ~$66 chain fees/day according to DefiLlama That's roughly: TVL: -95% Daily transactions: -96% And this is four years later, during a much more mature crypto market. So what are all those GitHub commits? I checked. There IS real development, but most recent Cronos core work is infrastructure and maintenance: mempool performance, caching, storage fixes, RPC optimizations, OOM/DoS protections, IBC fixes, dependency upgrades, Cosmos SDK/CometBFT upgrades, CI and security hardening. Good engineering. But almost nothing that solves the actual problem: demand. They're optimizing an almost empty blockchain. And even the "19,487 commits" headline needs context. Chainspect aggregates repository history. Cronos zkEVM alone contains a huge ZKsync/ZK Stack codebase originating from Matter Labs, so those numbers should NOT be interpreted as 19,487 pieces of original Cronos R&D. Then there's Cronos zkEVM. Launched in August 2024 with 20+ partners after claiming 3M+ testnet addresses. June 2026: Cronos announced it is shutting it down. Their own explanation: It failed to achieve the required critical mass in developer activity, TVL and user adoption, while maintaining two chains caused resource fragmentation. Shutdown: June 3, 2027. That's not FUD. That's Cronos saying it themselves. Then CRO tokenomics. 70 BILLION CRO were famously burned in 2021. They were later reissued. SEC filings now describe a 100B total supply, with 70B CRO allocated to the Strategic Reserve, around 67.7B still locked at the time of the filing, and approximately 1.16B CRO unlocking every ~30.4 days. Vested doesn't automatically mean dumped, but pretending that isn't a gigantic supply overhang is absurd. The interesting part is that Cronos' new CEO seems to understand the problem. Ryan Wyatt literally said the generic L1 strategy "doesn't play to its strengths" and that Cronos is being rebooted around revenue-generating first-party products. The new thesis is basically: Cronos App → crypto/stocks/prediction markets/trading → activity settles on Cronos → real fees/revenue → CRO buybacks/burn/value accrual. THAT strategy actually makes more sense. But as of now, the numbers are still brutal. Cronos doesn't have a technology problem. It has a demand problem. And you don't fix 0.25 TPS by making the mempool faster.

virgo.fyi (@virgofyi) reportedGitHub Copilot just got persistent memory across agent sessions. That solves an obvious problem: stop teaching the same agent the same project context over and over. But engineering teams have a bigger one. What one agent learns should be discoverable by the whole team, across Copilot, Claude, Cursor, Codex, and whatever comes next. Agent memory is useful. Shared engineering memory is where this is heading.

0xAIGOAT.exe. (@0xAIGOATexe) reportedI tried the exact bug this guy is screaming about. Two hours in C++, half an hour with Claude. The C++ path: 22 include lines, one Board::print function with a broken loop, three attempts to fix the segfault, one hour lost to a missing semicolon. The Claude path: paste the file, ask "why is Board::print segfaulting on odd board sizes." Response in 40 seconds with the fix and a note that my loop was one-indexed against a zero-indexed array. ⌁ At 0:04 he cuts to a GitHub Dashboard screaming. That frame is the audience the article below was written for. I was that guy in 2024. The moment the four-part prompt formula clicks is the moment the screaming stops. ⌁ the prompt structure that makes the model actually read the code ⌁ Projects, so context stops resetting every debug session ⌁ Skills, custom rules that turn Claude into a working pair-programmer He is not wrong to scream. He is just fighting the wrong fight. The bugs are free. The prompt is the edge.

Synapse Brief (@Synapse_Brief) reportedGoogle's Python SDK just got a new string: gemini-3.7-flash. No model card, no pricing, no announcement. Just a name sitting in the GenAI SDK on GitHub, three weeks after 3.6 Flash shipped. That 3.6 Flash launch, for context, already cut output pricing from $9 to $7.50 per million tokens and trimmed output token usage by 17 percent across the board. If Google's iterating that fast on a model that just launched, the interesting question isn't whether 3.7 exists. It's why Flash keeps eating the roadmap while the model people actually asked for doesn't show up. Gemini 3.5 Pro was promised for June. It's now mid-August and Google's own model page still lists it as "coming soon." SemiAnalysis reported it's been quietly shelved in favor of a Gemini 4 pretraining run, Google has not confirmed that, and nobody outside DeepMind seems to know which is true. So you've got a flagship that's either delayed or dead, and a Flash tier iterating fast enough that 3.7 leaked in SDK code before 3.5 Pro even shipped. That's not a cadence problem. That's a company telling you where its actual confidence sits.

Multi-Tenant Security If the application contains organizations, teams, workspaces or tenants, aggressively test the architecture for cross-tenant access. Verify that a user from Tenant A cannot: * read Tenant B’s data * modify Tenant B’s data * enumerate Tenant B’s resources * invoke Tenant B’s actions * access Tenant B’s files * access Tenant B’s billing information * access Tenant B’s administrative functionality Payments and Billing Review: * checkout * subscriptions * plan changes * entitlements * coupon handling * payment webhooks * refund handling * invoice handling Look for: * client-controlled prices * client-controlled plan IDs * entitlement manipulation * webhook spoofing * missing webhook signature verification * replay attacks * race conditions Webhooks Verify: * authentication * signatures * timestamp validation * replay protection * idempotency * payload validation * authorization * secret rotation Dependencies Inspect dependency manifests and lock files. Identify: * known vulnerable dependencies * abandoned packages * dangerous packages * unnecessary privileged dependencies * suspicious lifecycle scripts Separate confirmed vulnerabilities from dependency risks requiring external version verification. CI/CD and Supply Chain Review: * GitHub Actions * deployment scripts * build scripts * package installation * release workflows * secrets usage * permissions * third-party actions Look for: * excessive GitHub token permissions * unpinned actions * unsafe pull-request workflows * secret exposure * command injection * supply-chain risks Docker and Infrastructure Review: * Dockerfiles * docker-compose * Kubernetes * Terraform * reverse proxies * cloud configuration Look for: * root containers * privileged mode * exposed management ports * unnecessary services * public databases * weak network segmentation * insecure volumes * leaked secrets * dangerous capabilities Business Logic Do not restrict analysis to textbook vulnerabilities. Look for business-logic abuse including: * bypassing subscription limits * manipulating plan entitlements * repeating one-time actions * race conditions * referral abuse * promotion abuse * unauthorized state transitions * workflow bypasses * inconsistent server/client enforcement PHASE 4 — ATTACK-PATH ANALYSIS For important vulnerabilities, trace the complete attack path. Example: attacker-controlled input → route → middleware → service → authorization decision → database/storage/external service → security impact Determine whether multiple individually small weaknesses can be chained into a serious compromise. Prioritize exploitable chains over isolated theoretical issues. PHASE 5 — VALIDATION Do not report speculative vulnerabilities as confirmed vulnerabilities.
