SpaceX just pulled off the biggest IPO ever, raising $75 billion as demand ran more than four times the shares on offer. Its stock will begin trading on Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas this Friday. If the public-market debut holds strong, Elon Musk could cross the trillionaire mark. Meanwhile, Jeff Bezos has quietly launched Prometheus, a startup aiming to build what he calls an “artificial general engineer.” Prometheus plans to roll out new design and manufacturing tools for anything from chips to cars to rockets, slashing the invention cycle. Those tools could feed into Bezos’s other ventures, including Amazon and Blue Origin. NASA fixed many of the communication snarls that stalled science missions during Artemis I. New scheduling and coordination processes kept the Deep Space Network from buckling under Artemis II’s higher data demands, though the network still strains under peak loads. Back on Earth, the Familiar robot from Colin Angle’s new company wants to be your household pet. Soft, furry and dog-size, it uses on-device AI to chat and bond with family members. It doesn’t track engagement or feed you ads, and it won’t share data in the cloud without explicit permission. On the software side, agent-driven workflows are reshaping team operations. Cursor’s report pulls insights from millions of coding sessions and highlights five emerging shifts: faster individual developers, model cost dynamics, a widening power-user gap, deeper context use, and broader automation across the SDLC. Building a reliable vertical agent now means organizing context into a memory hierarchy rather than dumping gigabytes of data into the prompt. Homebrew 6.0.0 just landed with tap-trust security, a new JSON API, Linux sandboxing, better defaults and performance boosts, plus initial macOS 27 support. Over in long-form, Scott Alexander shares 36 minutes of AI takes on safety, geopolitics and mental-health applications. And a 25-minute deep dive explains why AI still can’t replace engineers: code writing was never the slow part. Defining what to build, verifying it and owning the outcome remain human jobs.
