Daily Tech News 27 March 2026

Top Story

Intel has been delivering interesting new products lately, with the Core 250K and Core 270K processors and the B70 Pro graphics card all providing solid performance at unmatched prices. The Core 290K processor, though - the planned new top of the line - has been unceremoniously - and now, officially - cancelled. (Tom's Hardware)

The 290K was to replace the existing 285K. But since the new 270K has already been upgraded to match the core counts of the 285K, the 290K could only offer higher clock speeds... And Intel can't offer higher clock speeds, not with these particular chips.
Also spoiling Intel's plans is AMD with its long-awaited Ryzen 9950X3D2. (Tom's Hardware)

AMD's X3D chips have what they call "3D V-Cache", because it has triple the usual amount of cache memory, with a second memory die stacked on top of the CPU - or in the latest iteration, underneath it. Vertically. In 3D. Which is slightly redundant, yes.

The new X3D2 variant applies that to both the CPU dies in a 16-core processor. The increased cache provides its biggest performance gains for computer games - often running 30% faster than anything else - which only really use eight cores since that's what the current generation of consoles have.

The 9950X3D2 is aimed more at workstation users and for most tasks will be barely faster (and possibly slightly slower) than the existing 9950X3D.

AMD plans a breakthrough with its upcoming Zen 6 family, which will offer 50% more of everything, cores and cache alike.

Tech News

Reddit has a bot problem and plans to tackle it by verifying the notbots. (Tech Crunch)

The notbots are rioting at the thought of being verified.
Wikpedia has banned AI-generated articles. (Engadget)

Like Reddit, Wikipedia has as large a problem with its humans as its inhumans, but this is not intrinsically a bad idea.
Tracy Kidder, a storyteller (as he described himself) and author of the classic tech story The Soul of a New Machine about the creation of the Data General Nova minicomputer, has passed away. (The Guardian)

He was 80.
Also late is Apple's Mac Pro. (9to5Mac)

It was introduced in 2019.

Apple has indicated that there will be no future Mac Pro models, or anything to fit that gap in the market.
The Langflow visual framework for building AI workflows has of course been compromised. (Bleeping Computer)

This is not a burn-your-house-down panic situation like some recent incidents, but if you're using it, update immediately.
Don't cross the streams. (Tech Crunch)

Speaking of recent incidents, LiteLLM, which as I reported yesterday is recovering from being very thoroughly hacked, previously received two security certifications marking it as safe to use.

From Delve.
Even so, as engineer Gergely Orosz pointed out on X when he saw people snickering about it online, "Oh damn, I thought this WAS a joke. ... but no, LiteLLM *really* was 'Secured by Delve.'"
As for LiteLLM, CEO Krrish Dholakia had no comment on the use of Delve. He's still busy cleaning up the unfortunate mess from being a victim of attack.
The attack on LiteLLM was indirect via Trivy and GitHub, so users of the software probably were safe... Right up until the entire project was compromised.

5 I was just watching this Beatles video of "The Night Before" that someone linked, and the video quality is amazing. 4K widescreen and perfect. I assume it was enhanced with AI, since it's apparently from the Help! movie, which was allegedly not shot with that great of a camera. As long as originals are also available, I'm glad to have a nicer-looking version (if you can ignore the text scroll that the enhancer DRMPLX put directly on the image at one point). How do other people feel about that use of the technology?

19 Greetings and good morning everyone. As I mentioned yesterday, I was dealing with only getting about 1.5 hours of sleep on account of being in a lot of pain. Things cleared up later that day and ibuprofen is proof God loves us. When I went to sleep last night, my body realized how bad the sleep deficit was and I was out within a few minutes of hitting the pillow AND my insomnia did not bother me.

41 @31/Ben Had: "You think we have fake news. The state media in Iran is telling people that Tel Aviv has been totally destroyed."

Sure, the Israelis could counter that with actual information (like getting themselves photographed with the current day's newspaper and a perfectly intact Tel Aviv behind them) - and some are!

Better yet though, and far more amusing to me, are those Israelis who are generating memes to counter the Iranian state media showing Godzilla (or other fictitious beings) destroying Tel Aviv.

I'd love for someone to make up a really awful looking paper mache mock-up of Tel-Aviv and then go stomping about in it on video, and hold up a sign saying "We're the Iranian State Media, totally accurate, trust us bro!"

I've always heard "put your best rubber on the drive wheels," and the Buick is front-wheel-drive. But nowadays tire companies recommend putting new tires only in the back regardless. What say you?

No, Rev, I'm not disagreeing with the shop's advice; I'll happily buy the new tires. My only question is, where should the new tires go. Most of my driving life (which will make a half-century next month), I'd heard the drive wheels advice, but now I get conflicting answers.

68 Wolfus, replace the tires on the driving wheels in pairs so that the drivetrain uses the same amount of torque to drive each wheel. Different tread depths (unequal wheel radius) and different treads (different coefficients of friction) will make the drivetrain work harder and out of balance.

Right. I hate to throw away a two-year-old tire, the RF, but the fronts wear faster, esp. being on the drive wheels. So it's as if the RF, though age two, is actually more than three, and the LF is over five.

Now not but last spring/summer we had roof damage from large stones hurled quite a distance from a missile impact in the area. Fixed within a few days.

In early 2024, an incoming intercepted missile scattered a rain of shrapnel over a large area. We have 2 half dollar size souvenirs on display in the house.

At present, the missile came in north of Jerusalem. So Mrs. BD and I are enjoying our coffees from the comfort of our home. First reports are the missile was intercepted and no reports yet of know damage or injured.

I just found out about babka.

95 So I just had three deer at the bird feeders.

The buck kept an eye on me. I assume it was the buck as it was noticeably larger.

He was slurping up sunflower seed from the woodpecker feeder.

98 Decisions. Cinnamon babka or chocolate croissant?

Both.

99 Local media sort of says 'be there, or be square' about the huge (so they say) no kings day in the city. Maybe they should have Kathy Hochul or Gavin Newsom give a speech or something to make it entertaining. Besides its going to be cold and whats the point, am I missing something.??

Besides, my backyard is a wildlife sanctuary, not a wildlife management area.

All these years not knowing. You poor thing!

We have a boutique bakery up north that makes the meanest babka with butter. Hard to stop slicing off pieces and eating the whole thing.

Thanks all for well-wishes. Us and pups are all doing fine, including our pups in uniform. Mrs. BD just got a big thanks video from unit friends of our youngest pup who get to nibble on the batches of choc. chip cookies Mrs. BD sends in their direction as often as possible.

105 I just got an email from my campus theater...

I can get 25% off tickets to see Menopause The Musical 2: Cruising Through "The Change"

I swear I am not making this up.

106 mornin yall. Wolfus, get two new front tires and an alignment. The rear tires in a FWD vehicle are just along for the ride.

Bruno goes back to the vet this morning for a biopsy on his lymph nodes. We hope it's not lymphoma. Please say a prayer for my buddy.

114 Apple is discontinuing the Mac Pro because the are already offering workstation level performance in their other products so their really is no market for it.

Also their design aesthetic for it, does not fit with the rest of their products.
