When was the last time you had a good day of work? The kind where you got into flow and stayed there long enough to think deeply about a problem? Paul Graham wrote about this in 2009: a single meeting can wreck an entire half-day for someone who needs uninterrupted time to build something. Sixteen years later, we've added Slack, Teams, always-on video calls, and a culture of instant responsiveness.

Eight years ago, I made a jump to industry: I was chief scientist and head of R&D for Uber's self-driving program, which gave me a lot of visibility in terms of what building a world-class program and bringing the technology to market would look like. One of the things that became clear was that there was a tremendous opportunity for a disrupter in the industry, because everybody was going with an approach that was extremely complex and brittle,

Blurry streaks of light created by fast-moving artificial satellites are already known to mar images taken by ground-based observatories. Today, researchers report in Nature that space-based telescopes will not escape such interference as fleets of private satellites proliferate. The researchers found that in the next decade, satellite trails could taint roughly 96% of the images taken by some space-based telescopes, and a single image could contain as many as 92 streaks.

Among the benefits, tabletop exercises simulate a real-life attack so firms can put incident response plans to the test, including decision-making processes, communications and technical measures. When done well, tabletop exercises can expose blind spots and help response teams "build the muscle memory needed to act fast when the real thing hits", says Adam Harrison, managing director in the cyber security practice at FTI Consulting. So what types of tabletop exercises are available and how can you use them in your business?

"There is really a question about how the world is going to change by having these agents collaborating and talking to each other and negotiating," said Kamar. "We want to understand these things deeply."

Zen Buddhist monk and personal hero of mine, Thich Nhat Hanh, spent much of his life writing about mindfulness. He stressed that when we do anything, we should commit to it fully, giving it our undivided attention and allowing ourselves to become immersed in it, be it simply eating, walking, or anything else. "Drink your tea slowly and reverently," he said, "as if it is the axis on which the earth revolves--slowly, evenly, without rushing toward the future."

Mountains with predictably purple peaks drew a serrated line along the horizon. Above them iron grey cumulus warned of a gathering storm. On a plain beneath the sloping hill, moving inexorably towards an obsidian wall protecting an alabaster citadel, several armies converged. Ralph turned to the gaunt grey figure standing a few steps away, cocked a sceptical eyebrow and muttered: "Seriously?"

The latest edition of Steam Next Fest is over, and Steam has shared its list of the 50 most-played demos from the week-long event. This year's list was pretty heavy with horror, adventure, RPG, and simulation games. And surprisingly, only a few roguelike and racing titles. One of the most unusual titles was Final Sentence, a battle-royale typing game that has a fatal ending for any player who can't keep up with the pace.

Jamie Carragher called Liverpool defender Milos Kerkez's play-acting "ridiculous" after the 21-year-old collected a yellow card at Burnley in the Premier League on Sunday. Left-back Kerkez, who joined the Reds for £40 million from Bournemouth in July, went down in theatrical fashion as Clarets midfielder Josh Laurent pursued him inside the box. "It was a dive," former Liverpool defender Carragher told Sky Sports, praising referee Michael Oliver for spotting the simulation. "There are no doubts about it. That is absolutely stupid."

TechCrunch Disrupt 2025 hits Moscone West in San Francisco from October 27 to 29, bringing together 10,000+ startup and VC leaders for three days of bold ideas, groundbreaking tech, and future-shaping conversations.

startup, which launched in 2024, has developed a platform that generates AI personas that help companies test how their product, marketing, branding, and other content might be perceived. "We primarily use AI agents that chat with each other, mimicking how real humans influence each other," cofounder and CEO James He told Business Insider. "We try to capture that artificial society, and how it will respond to any input. It can be a marketing message or a product proposition, and we produce analysis for our customers."

The game is now squarely in the top 50 most-played games on Steam, putting it in competition with titles like Elden Ring, Nightreign, and Warframe.
