At enterprise scale, telemetry depth is only useful if the platform can query it quickly, prioritize alerts, and enforce role-appropriate access; otherwise the data exists but the workflows do not.Dynamic groups update automatically on endpoint characteristics, handling segmentation without manual maintenance. Role-based access controls set permissions at the script, endpoint, and system configuration levels, with junior analysts working within a defined triage scope while senior analysts and incident responders access broader data and response capabilities.Agent communications use TLS 1.2 encrypted WebSocket connections, and scripts execute simultaneously across multiple endpoints from a single task. The alert interface supports grouping, filtering, and…

According to Christian streamer Kangmin Lee, Anakin Skywalker represents the “archetypal disenfranchised chud,” radicalized when he realizes the “political order” he once believed in is “deeply corrupt, hypocritical, and wicked.” Right-wing Substack writer Max Mersault believes that the Anakin posts are “culturally significant” and that you couldn’t “engineer a better anti-progressive memetic virus in [a] lab if you tried.”Elon Musk himself, after funneling nearly half a billion dollars to Republican candidates this cycle, shared a seemingly AI-generated image of Anakin on a throne, accompanied by his love interest Padmé Amidala, their children Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia, and a bevy…

According to University of Washington research, across job interviews, conference presentations and English proficiency tests, AI models generally ranked American and British speakers highest, Indian speakers in the middle, and Chinese and Nigerian speakers lowest. (BigStock Image) Picture two job candidates giving the same answer to the same interview question, word for word. One has an American accent. The other has a Nigerian accent. Ask a leading AI model to score them, and the American will likely come out ahead. That’s the gist of new research from the University of Washington, which tested how AI models from Google, OpenAI and…

The hubbub at the New York Stock Exchange was audible on theCUBE Pod last Friday, with concerns rising over the artificial intelligence bubble. Several tech companies, including Intel Corp., Alphabet Inc., Amazon.com Inc., CoreWeave Inc. and Fortinet Inc., saw their stock fall, suggesting that investors may have doubts about all that AI infrastructure spending. At the same time, Anthropic PBC filed for an initial public offering with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, which looks to be a grand debut for one of the biggest AI developers out there (despite the company still not turning a profit). Also causing a…

Pay-per-appointment lead generation works only when appointments turn into conversations. And not when numbers matter over actual purchase intent. 2025 was the year when crucial conversations around demand gen took the front seat. MQLs were rendered dead. Cold calling was presumed too outdated. And the monumental demand was for lead gen to make a 180-degree shift. Especially if the outcome is inherently to be high-quality, qualified leads- not voluminous junk in the name of leads. Leads that convert into promising sales opportunities. There is a need for a solution that doesn’t merely sell promises. But unearths outcomes. One that’s focused…

The iPhone Duo is designed to be compact, but that hasn’t stopped some from wondering how its size compares with other iPhone models. Fortunately, we have all the current iPhone devices on hand to show how the Duo, when folded shut, stacks up against the dimensions of everything from the iPhone Air to the iPhone 18 Pro Max. This should give you a better sense of how easily the Duo might fit into a pocket or bag. The iPhone Duo is a $1,999 phone that, in case it wasn’t obvious from the price, isn’t for everyone. With a 5.4-inch cover…

If you have ever opened an app on your Wear OS smartwatch and had no idea what time it was, Google is working on a fix. In October, the company launched a Wear OS canary emulator inside Android Studio. It lets developers try out new features and design tweaks well before Google ships them to anyone’s wrist. The biggest addition in this build is a status bar that never leaves. It lives at the top edge of your round watch face, floats above whatever app you have open, and keeps the clock and your watch’s status icons in view.  What…
