Human Brain Cells Play DOOM on a CL1 Biological Computer
Cortical Labs grew 200,000 human neurons in a petri dish, connected them to silicon, and taught them to play DOOM. The CL1 is a commercially available biological computing unit — neurons as hardware. The cells learn via feedback loops, not code.

Agent Safehouse: Sandboxing AI Agents on macOS
A new macOS-native tool for isolating and sandboxing local AI agents. 642 HN points in 16 hours — that's a signal. The community is building containment infrastructure for agents running on personal machines. The very existence of this tool confirms that autonomous agents are now sufficiently common on laptops to warrant their own security tooling category.

Last week, the Defense Department failed its fifth audit, unable to account for more than 61% its assets, worth about $1.8 trillion.
