Entire created a Git forge designed for collaboration between human developers and AI coding agents. The platform replaces traditional pull request timelines with trails that display automated evaluation scores on code quality and security. It also introduces persistent memory tools to store…

Linus Torvalds released the first candidate for Linux kernel 7.4, which reached nearly 20,000 commits. He reported that AI-generated work now arrives during the standard merge window instead of disrupting the stabilization phase. Contributors still rewrite many of the patch suggestions generated…

Employees are installing autonomous AI agents that inherit full user permissions without security reviews. These tools execute code and move data at machine speed. Security teams must now monitor agent behavior at runtime instead of relying on static policy checks.

Strengthen your research with practical statistical skills. The 5-day online “Introduction to Research Methods and Statistics” workshop from the Centre for Applied Statistics Courses (CASC) at University College London is designed for PhD students, academics and professional researchers across disciplines. Build confidence in data visualization, experimental design, hypothesis testing, regression, multivariate analysis, statistical software and reproducible research through a blend of theory and hands-on learning. Join live via Zoom or choose the on-demand option, with seminar materials available for 30 days and an instructor-monitored forum for questions. Participants receive an Instats certificate of completion, with ECTS equivalent points available for European students. Explore the workshop and take your research skills further. #ResearchMethods #Statistics #PhD #AcademicResearch #ProfessionalDevelopment #Demography #ComputerScience #StatisticsEducation #Business #ComputationalStatistics #HealthEconomics #SocialSciences #InformationSystems #PopulationBiology #ComputationalSocialScience #DigitalHumanities #History #Statisticalmodellingandregression #CulturalEconomics #PublicHealth #Education #Epidemiology #Biostatistics #Statistics #DataScience #Economics #Research #ResearchTraining #Instats

The publication examines the placement of AI agents alongside Kubernetes in engineering control loops. Developers use agents to write patches and identify bugs, but reviewers still catch defects like race conditions. Teams must determine how much autonomy to grant agents operating against runtime…

Librarians have become a mental health front line, and we should support them in this unexpected role.

Looking to bring a spatial dimension to your research? Join Dr Nick Bearman of University College London and Geospatial Training Solutions for a free online introduction to geographic information systems (GIS), designed for PhD students, academics, and professional researchers. Discover how GIS can help you visualize spatial data, analyze geographic patterns, and explore questions across disciplines—from ecology to urban studies. The seminar covers essential GIS concepts, spatial data sources, common software platforms, and practical strategies for integrating GIS into your research. Attend live via Zoom or revisit the recording and materials for 30 days after the seminar, with access to an expert-monitored Q&A forum during that period. An Instats certificate of completion is included. Ready to build on the foundations? Participants can also access an automatic 10% discount on Dr Bearman’s follow-on courses, QGIS: A Full Course 2.0 and GIS in R: A Full Course 2.0.
