Six months ago, there was a lot of focus on the idea that the there would be a massive glut of unused computing power which would could a recession as AI use plateaued. The "compute bubble" belief was absolutely everywhere. The degree to which this was wrong deserves some notice

Neuromorphic Hardware and Neurosymbolic Systems as AGI Pathways
By
–
If such living, self‑organizing nervous systems are integrated with neuromorphic spiking hardware and neurosymbolic cognitive architectures, they form a plausible long‑term pathway toward AGI. Neuromorphic platforms (Loihi, TrueNorth, SpiNNaker, BrainScaleS, etc.) aim for

Database Query Performance Optimization Using Composite and Covering Indexes
By
–
When queries slow down, the instinct is simple. Add indexes. → Composite indexes on device_id + timestamp
→ Partial indexes for recent data
→ Covering indexes for hot queries Result → queries drop back to milliseconds. But something important just changed. Every insert -

Index Trap: How Database Fixes Create Hidden Write Load
By
–
Most database slowdowns don’t start with an outage. They start with a “fix.” You add an index.
Queries get faster.
Dashboards recover. Everyone moves on. But at scale, every new index quietly multiplies your write load. This is the index trap I discussed with @TigerDatabase
