Justice for CSS

WIRED

The first in CSS stands for "style." Think colors and fonts, borders and shadows, rows and columns, animations and transitions. CSS is the programming language that makes a website look pretty (or pretty ugly, often). It's what makes this very webpage look like itself--look WIRED. One paragraph in, a certain reader will already be smarting at my description of CSS.

I don't know about you, but when I tuned into this week's episode of The Full Nerd I was mostly just excited to hear about the Steam Frame. I haven't bought a VR headset since the Quest 2 but I'm still curious about the state of VR gaming, and I'm sorely tempted to buy a Frame despite the eye-watering $1,000+ price tag. But as it turns out, I was a lot more excited to hear about Linux!

The Guardian

Nvidia's acquisition of Hugging Face will give it direct access to platform developers use to collaborate, test and share tools Nvidia's acquisition of Hugging Face will give it direct access to platform developers use to collaborate, test and share tools Nvidia to buy developer platform Hugging Face in $12.9bn deal Nvidia will buy the popular developer platform Hugging Face for nearly $13bn, betting that support for open AI models could offset a potential slowdown in demand for the semiconductor giant's chips. Shares in Nvidia were slightly lower after the $12.93bn (ยฃ9.57bn) deal - which ranks among its biggest ever - was announced for the database of AI models on Thursday. The New York-based startup Hugging Face, which is backed by Intel, Advanced Micro Devices and Amazon, was founded in 2016 by the French entrepreneurs Clรฉment Delangue, Julien Chaumond and Thomas Wolf. Nvidia's quarterly revenue doubles to nearly $100bn as CEO declares'golden age' The chipmaker is already a major open AI player in the US with its widely used Nemotron model and vocal support for the technology. Acquiring Hugging Face will give it direct access to a platform developers use to collaborate, test and share tools, potentially providing insight and data that could help it narrow the technology gap with top American and Chinese labs.

Not all Linux distributions will eventually include AI. Developers' ethos often runs counter to AI technology. Jack Wallen expects these six distros will continue to shun AI. AI is everywhere, and the technology's tendrils continue finding their way into more and more places.


I tested Omarchy Quattro, one of the first Linux distros to go all in on AI - and I didn't hate it

Omarchy Quattro brings together two very efficient technologies. AI in Linux has become a hotly debated subject. For some, it makes perfect sense. Linux creator Linus Torvalds has decided that AI is a great option for the kernel development process. I've been of the opinion that injecting AI into Linux places the open-source operating system on the same (often unwanted) plane as Windows and MacOS, where many users prefer not to have either Copilot or Apple Intelligence getting in the way .
