US may reassess Nato ties after Iran war ends, Rubio says
Secretary of State Marco Rubio said the US may need to reassess its relationship with Nato after the Iran war is finished, calling the military alliance’s alleged lack of support during the Middle East conflict “very disappointing”. Rubio assailed Nato members for denying access to military bases, following prior criticism from US President Donald Trump that partners in the security bloc are “cowards” and that the alliance is a “paper tiger”. “The president and our country will have to...
Secretary of State Marco Rubio said the US may need to reassess its relationship with Nato after the Iran war is finished, calling the military alliance’s alleged lack of support during the Middle East conflict “very disappointing”.
Rubio assailed Nato members for denying access to military bases, following prior criticism from US President Donald Trump that partners in the security bloc are “cowards” and that the alliance is a “paper tiger”.
“The president and our country will have to re-examine all of this after this operation is over,” Rubio said in an interview with Al Jazeera.
“If Nato is just about us defending Europe if they’re attacked, but them denying us basing rights when we need them, that’s not a very good arrangement. That’s a hard one to stay engaged in.”
Members of Nato have largely rebuffed Trump’s requests to help reopen the vital Strait of Hormuz, which Iran effectively closed with threats of retaliation after being attacked by the US and Israel. The critical passageway for energy supplies has been effectively shut since late February, leading oil and gas prices to soar.
“When this operation is over, it will be open and it’ll be open one way or another,” Rubio said. “It will be open because Iran agrees to abide by international law and not block the commercial waterway, or a coalition of nations from around the world – and the region – with the participation of the United States, will make sure that it’s open,” he added.

AI maps science papers to predict research trends two to three years ahead
The number of scientific papers is growing so rapidly that scientists are no longer able to keep track of all of them, even in their own research area. Researchers from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), in collaboration with scientific partners, have shown how new research ideas can still be obtained from this wealth of information. Using artificial intelligence (AI), they systematically analyzed materials science publications to identify potential new avenues of research. Their results have been published in Nature Machine Intelligence.

Developers Are Designing for AI Before Users Now
<p>A quiet shift is happening in modern web development.</p> <p>For years, developers designed applications with one priority: users.</p> <p>UI came first.<br><br> User flows came first.<br><br> User experience came first. </p> <p>Backend, APIs, and integrations were built around that experience.</p> <p>But today, something has changed.</p> <p>Developers are increasingly designing systems with <strong>AI in mind before users</strong>, and this is reshaping how frontend, UX, and fullstack engineering work.</p> <h2> The Old Way of Building Applications </h2> <p>Traditional product development looked like this:</p> <p>Design UI → Build frontend → Connect backend → Launch</p> <p>The focus was simple:</p> <ul> <li>What does the user need?</li> <li>How will they interact?</li> <li>What is the ea
What Is New In Helm 4 And How It Improves Over Helm 3
<p>The release of <strong>Helm 4</strong> marks a massive milestone in the <strong>Kubernetes</strong> ecosystem. For years developers and system administrators have relied on this robust package manager to template deploy and manage complex cloud native applications. When the maintainers transitioned from the second version to <strong>Helm 3</strong> the community rejoiced because it completely removed <strong>Tiller</strong>. That removal drastically simplified cluster security models and streamlined deployment pipelines. Now the highly anticipated <strong>Helm 4</strong> is stepping into the spotlight to address the modern challenges of <strong>DevOps</strong> workflows. This comprehensive blog post will explore exactly what is new in <strong>Helm 4</strong> and how it provides a vastly
Promoting raw BG3 gameplay bundle previews in the TD2 SDL port
<h1> Promoting raw BG3 gameplay bundle previews in the TD2 SDL port </h1> <p>Today's checkpoint was small in code size but important in interpretation.</p> <p>The late gameplay bundles in the project already had useful <code>BG1</code>, <code>BG2</code>, <code>OBJ</code>, and screenshot-derived support surfaces, but they were still weak on one practical question: when design flagged the sky/horizon side of gameplay, were we looking at a missing asset, or were we looking at a composition problem?</p> <p>I closed that ambiguity by extending the gameplay bundle builder to emit first-class <code>BG3</code> artifacts next to the existing layer outputs:</p> <ul> <li><code>bg3.ppm</code></li> <li><code>bg3.png</code></li> <li><code>bg3_render.json</code></li> </ul> <p>Then I refreshed the promote
