Why Most "AirTag Alternatives" Still Make You Pick a Side

You lose your wallet. You check your phone. Nothing shows up, because the tracker inside that wallet only talks to iPhones, and you switched to a Galaxy last year. This happens more than people expect. Someone buys an AirTag alternative, assumes "alternative" means it works everywhere, and finds out the hard way that it doesn't. Most trackers marketed as universal are really just built for one ecosystem with a different logo on the box.

Top 6 Multi-Agent Orchestration Tools for Software Teams

Software teams have already seen what single-agent tools can do. They can draft code, explain unfamiliar functions, summarize pull requests, generate tests, and clean up documentation. Those tasks are useful, but they do not solve the larger coordination problem that slows down engineering work.

Removable Vinyl Decals: Plan the Takedown, Not Just Install

A campaign goes live across thirty sites on the same Monday. Someone has planned the artwork, the print run, the courier schedule and the install window. Six weeks later the campaign ends, and nobody has planned the part where the vinyl decals come off. The graphics come down however they come down. Which is to say badly, by whoever is on shift, with improvised tools and whatever removal method happens to be available.

Laser Cutting Acrylic vs CNC Machining: Which Method Is Better?

If you work with acrylic sheets, you may be wondering whether a laser cutter or CNC router is the better choice. Both machines can cut acrylic, but they work best for different applications. A CNC router is useful for deep cuts, 3D carving, and heavy machining. A CO2 laser cutter is often the better option for acrylic signs, displays, lettering, decorations, and other 2D sheet products. So, which one should you choose?

Why London's tech community should care about AI, cloud and digital sovereignty in 2026

London has spent decades establishing itself as one of the world’s major technology hubs. Its strength comes from the concentration of AI and technology startups, financial services and fintech, highly regulated industries, universities and research institutions, international businesses and technology companies, alongside a large community of developers and engineers.

You don't know what your model is going to do when you tell it what to do.

Give a model permission to act on your computer and you're trusting it will behave the way you expect. It might not. In this clip from our Braintrust conversation, Adam Berman, engineering leader at Semgrep, breaks down why a backdoored model is a different threat model than backdoored software. You can't fuzz-test your way to finding it, and you often can't detect it until it's already acting the way it shouldn't.

Minga's developers point AI tools at their own infrastructure

Matt Zytaruk, VP of Technology at Minga, on what changed once his developers could point their AI tools at their own infrastructure. Minga checks in 1.5 million students across the eastern seaboard every school morning. They run that platform on Control Plane, which gives their team an MCP server, a CLI, and Terraform-native resources — so a developer can investigate an issue and generate the code for the change without waiting on anyone.
