Intel’s latest Cache Aware Scheduling patches for Linux show measurable performance gains on the new Xeon 6 Granite Rapids processors. The technique groups tasks to minimize cache misses. It’s a win for multi-socket servers.
In a landmark move, the developers at legendary studio id Software have voted to form a union. This creates a “wall-to-wall” unit covering all employees and is a significant expansion of organized labor within Microsoft.
OpenAI’s ChatGPT predictably led Apple’s 2025 most-downloaded free apps list, boasting over 800 million weekly users. Yet, Google’s aggressive push with Gemini has triggered a “code red” at OpenAI, highlighting the shaky financial ground beneath the AI hype.
Microsoft is committing to a long-term project to refine the Windows 11 gaming experience. The company says it will focus on background workload management, power tuning, and graphics optimizations, with updates rolling out continuously through 2026 and beyond.
A UK tribunal is deciding whether a massive £2.1 billion lawsuit against Microsoft can proceed. The case alleges the company made Windows Server more expensive on rival cloud platforms like AWS and Google Cloud to push customers toward Azure.

AI’s explosive growth is creating a massive energy crisis for data centers. By 2030, they could use enough power for 37 million US homes. The solution isn’t just building more plants; it’s about squeezing every drop of efficiency from existing infrastructure.
A critical React server-side flaw is being exploited at scale by over a dozen distinct attack groups. Wiz reports half of all vulnerable, internet-facing systems remain unpatched, creating a massive attack surface for everything from cryptojacking to sophisticated espionage.
The data center industry is facing unprecedented resource demands, largely fueled by AI. Legacy metrics from 20 years ago, like PUE, are no longer sufficient for modern, complex facilities. New standards are emerging to measure everything from water stress to how effectively energy is turned into co
Physicists have shattered a long-standing quantum limit, the temporal Tsirelson’s bound, using a three-qubit system. The trick? Controlling one qubit with a quantum superposition state, which made the target qubit robust against decoherence for five times longer.
