The M2x2 in action. | Image: Paul Staal In 1979 - nearly 50 years ago - Lego jazzed up its very first spaceships with an iconic sloped computer brick that was just painted plastic. In 2022, we introduced you to the engineer who fit a tiny computer inside . Now, industrial designer Paul Staal has flipped the script: he's created a desktop PC that's a super-sized homage to the classic computer brick (via Reddit and Hackster.io ). It's ten times bigger than the original: The "M2x2" is largely a 3D-printed case for a Mac Mini - one you can freely print at home yourself - but it's not just a shell. He's outfitted it with a 7-inch IPS touchscreen display, a full array of additional p … Read the full story at The Verge.

senior woman making a decision of whether to switch from OXSQ to HTGC Tara Moore/DigitalVision via Getty Images The BDC market has been providing us with some volatility recently, proving our main point that something designed for income investors is much more suitable for experienced traders. The problem comes from the constant shift in sentiment and the fact that these companies trade on the exchange. This creates a lot of mispricings, and today's is among the strangest I have seen in my career. Hercules Capital ( HTGC ) has always been among the greatest performers when it comes to its NAV return, while Oxford Square ( OXSQ ) is among the worst-performing companies in the sector in almost any timeframe. You can get familiar with our work on these two names in the following articles: HTGC was overvalued at 70% premium against the simple HYG ETF Sell Oxford Square Capital Before It Is Too Late We're constantly changing our view of a particular company based on its pricing, and the approach is purely numerical. Before starting the comparison of the two completely mispriced companies, we want to clarify our methodology so the reader understands the approach we are using. There's no way for any analyst to know the future of the underlying portfolios in the BDC sector. It does not matter how smart, experienced, or gifted you are; there just isn't enough easy-to-access information on the past performance of these privately held companies to even analyze their past results. The approach is to always use available data and project past numbers into the future. The biggest flaw with this approach is that, at some point, a higher-risk, higher-yield portfolio performs better than a lower-risk, lower-yield portfolio. Statistically, this gives the higher-risk portfolio an edge, even though it may perform worse over time, as the magic of large numbers always works in the end. We're using the available data on returns to NAV for all BDCs. We look at their asset yield and the ave...

Anthropic PBC , threatened with blacklisting by the Defense Department in a dispute over AI safeguards, expects the standoff to lead to a legal battle. “We do not believe this action is legally sound, and we see no choice but to challenge it in court,” Chief Executive Officer Dario Amodei said in a blog post on Thursday. Earlier Thursday, the Pentagon formally notified Anthropic that the company and its products pose a risk to the US supply chain, a senior defense official told Bloomberg.

In his warning to the firm last Friday, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth had outlined a six-month transition period to shift its AI work to other providers.

SlavkoSereda/iStock via Getty Images Crude oil futures climbed Thursday to their highest levels since July 2024 but turned lower after-hours following news that the Trump administration is expected to announce measures aimed at combating rising energy prices due to the Middle East war, including potential action involving the oil futures market. The details of the plan are not clear, but the action may involve the U.S. Treasury's Exchange Stabilization Fund, which was used in October to prop up Argentina's currency by buying pesos in the open market and backing a $20B swap line. China reportedly is in talks with Iran to allow crude oil and Qatari liquefied natural gas vessels safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz, restoring at least some shipments from the vital waterway that accounts for 20% of the world's oil and LNG supplies. China, which relies heavily on Middle Eastern energy supplies, is said to be unhappy about Iran's move to paralyse shipping through Hormuz and is pressing to allow safe passage for the vessels. Additionally, the United Arab Emirates reportedly is considering freezing billions of dollars of Iranian assets held in the country, a move that could sever one of Iran's most important economic lifelines. U.S. crude oil has dropped ~2% post-market, after the front-month Nymex contract ( CL1:COM ) for April delivery closed regular trading +8.5% to $81.01/bbl, and f ront-month Brent crude ( CO1:COM ) for May delivery finished +4.9% to $85.41/bbl. U.S. natural gas futures ( NG1:COM ) rose after a slightly bigger-than-expected 132 Bcf weekly inventory draw that widened the deficit to the five-year average to 43 Bcf from 7 Bcf; the front-month Nymex April contract closed +2.9% at $3.003/MMBtu. "With an end to the conflict not in sight, additional crude price strength would appear to lie ahead and should this conflict extend through next week, a WTI advance in the $95 area is certainly within realm of possibility," Ritterbusch and Associates said in...
每次打开 AI 工具,你大概都要先想一秒钟:这个任务,该用哪个模型?写代码是一个,查资料是另一个,让 AI 帮你操作电脑,还得再开一个窗口。 今天过后, 这种分裂感终于有了一个答案。 就在刚刚,OpenAI 正式发布 GPT-5.4,把编程、推理、计算机操控、网页搜索和百万 Token 上下文全部整合进同一个模型,且没有为了整合而牺牲任何一项的能力。 OpenAI CEO 山姆·奥特曼也在 X 平...
每次打开 AI 工具,你大概都要先想一秒钟:这个任务,该用哪个模型?写代码是一个,查资料是另一个,让 AI 帮你操作电脑,还得再开一个窗口。 今天过后, 这种分裂感终于有了一个答案。 就在刚刚,OpenAI 正式发布 GPT-5.4,把编程、推理、计算机操控、网页搜索和百万 Token 上下文全部整合进同一个模型,且没有为了整合而牺牲任何一项的能力。 OpenAI CEO 山姆·奥特曼也在 X 平台发了一条简短推文,点出了五个方向:知识工作更强、网页搜索更出色、原生计算机操控、支持百万 Token 上下文、响应过程中随时可介入。 寥寥数语,对应的恰好是过去两年 AI 应用落地中最集中的五个痛点。 知识工作:十次有八次,AI 赢了专业人士 理解 GPT-5.4 在知识工作上的进步,需要先了解 GDPval 这个基准的设计逻辑。 它横跨美国 GDP 贡献最大的 9 个行业、44 种职业。任务是那些职场里每天真实发生的工作:给投资银行写财务模型、给医院排急诊班次、给销售团队做演示文稿。 任务完成后,把输出结果交给行业内的真实从业者盲测打分,看 AI 的产出能赢过多少比例的人类同行。 GPT-5.4 的答案是 83.0%,意味着十次对比中有八次以上,行业专业人士认为 AI 的产出达到或超过了人类同行水准。上代 GPT-5.2 是 70.9%,差距将近 13 个百分点。 进步在电子表格建模上表现得最为具体。GPT-5.4 模拟初级投行分析师完成建模任务,平均得分 87.3%,GPT-5.2 是 68.4%,GPT-5.3-Codex 是 79.3%,差距将近 20 个百分点。 法律平台 Harvey 的 BigLaw Bench 测试结果同样亮眼,GPT-5.4 得分 91%,专业服务评测平台 Mercor 的 APEX-Agents 基准中也拿下了第一。 准确性方面同样值得关注。 幻觉问题一直是 AI 进入专业场景最大的拦路虎,每降低一个百分点,都意味着更多场景可以放心用它。 数据显示,与 GPT-5.2 相比,GPT-5.4 单条陈述出错的概率低了 33%,完整回复含有错误的概率低了 18%。 编程:一个模型,写代码测代码全包了 GPT-5.4 把 GPT-5.3-Codex 的编程能力整合进主线,对开发者来说,这意味着你不再需要为了写代码单独开一个模型,而且编程能力本身...
