We have room S326. S building is next to Santafe's bookstore.
Codetown is a social network. It's got blogs, forums, groups, personal pages and more! You might think of Codetown as a funky camper van with lots of compartments for your stuff and a great multimedia system, too! Best of all, Codetown has room for all of your friends.

Kagi has released Orion 1.0, a web browser that features privacy by default, zero telemetry, and no integrated ad-tracking technology. Orion supports both Chrome and Firefox extensions and intentionally excludes AI from its core to prioritize security, privacy, and performance. Orion targets macOS and iOS, with upcoming Linux and Windows versions. Orion is based on WebKit.

Cactus, a Y Combinator-backed startup, enables local AI inference to mobile phones, wearables, and other low-power devices through cross-platform, energy-efficient kernels and a native runtime. It delivers sub-50ms time-to-first-token for on-device inference, eliminates network latency, and defaults to complete privacy.
