<li><strong>Meta secures massive nuclear power deals for AI data centers</strong>: Meta has inked agreements with Vistra, Oklo, and TerraPower to secure over six gigawatts of nuclear power for its data centers, driven by escalating AI workloads. Vistra will provide 2.1 GW immediately from existing Ohio facilities, with an additional 433 MW by the early 2030s. Oklo and TerraPower, both advanced nuclear startups, are slated to deliver 1.2 GW and 2.8 GW respectively by 2030-2032, marking a significant shift towards nuclear energy in the tech sector, as reported by TechCrunch. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/1sXfoaLc2" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>North Korean hackers exploit QR codes for credential theft</strong>: North Korean state-sponsored hackers, Kimsuky/APT43, are using malicious QR code spear-phishing campaigns to target U.S. think tanks, academic institutions, and government entities. These ‘quishing’ attacks bypass multi-factor authentication by directing victims to fake login pages for services like Microsoft 365 and Okta, then stealing session tokens. The FBI warns that mobile devices, often outside enterprise security tools, are particularly vulnerable, making this a critical threat for organizations with sensitive data. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/XmPhFlPf5" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Snowflake acquires Observe for AIops observability</strong>: Snowflake is acquiring Observe, an AI-based SRE platform, to enhance its observability offerings, particularly for diagnosing and managing production AI systems. This move aims to unify visibility across data pipelines, AI model behavior, and infrastructure health within Snowflake’s Data Cloud. The acquisition is positioned to address challenges in monitoring AI-driven applications and provide cost benefits over traditional observability vendors like Datadog and Splunk. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/XlAd95QPv" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>

<h2>Bullshit police</h2>

<li><strong>Anthropic claims 40% enterprise AI market share, based on their own survey</strong>: Anthropic is proudly announcing a partnership with Allianz and claiming a whopping 40% of the enterprise AI market share, up from 32% in July. This impressive statistic, however, comes from a Menlo Ventures survey, a venture capital firm that probably has zero incentive to inflate market perceptions. It’s almost as if companies like to cite data that makes them look good, regardless of independent verification. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=D8jNyiFSs&amp;id=DLaOdwegi" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>GameStop continues its slow, painful exit from relevance</strong>: GameStop is closing another 390 stores in the U.S. and pulling out of several European countries, while its CEO, Ryan Cohen, was awarded a $35 million performance incentive. Apparently, the goal is to raise the company’s market cap from $9.52 billion to $100 billion. Because nothing says ‘turnaround strategy’ like massive store closures and a CEO bonus tied to a 10x market cap increase for a company whose net sales dropped 27.5%. Good luck with that. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/t6Y3Ssj5q" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Russian APT28’s ‘sophisticated’ credential harvesting: free hosting and fake login pages</strong>: Russian state-sponsored group APT28 (Fancy Bear/BlueDelta) conducted credential harvesting campaigns using off-the-shelf free hosting services and fake login pages. Their ‘advanced’ techniques included localized phishing emails and redirecting victims to real login pages to minimize suspicion. It’s truly groundbreaking stuff—who knew that using free tools and basic social engineering could be so effective? Clearly, they’re prioritizing ‘cost-effectiveness’ over, you know, actual sophistication. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/bNDY7v5ay" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
