Here's your weekend project. Build a fully local, sandboxed AI assistant. Step-by-step tutorial to build your always-on agent: 🦞 on openclaw ✅ with NVIDIA NemoClaw ✨ using NVIDIA DGX Spark Get started: developer.nvidia.com/blog/build-a-s…

Qwen3.6 35B-A3B dropped yesterday, so I ran it on 4 GPUs to see how it performs: 🟣 RTX 3090 — 49.78 tok/s, TTFT 852ms 🟡 RTX 4090 — 118.93 tok/s, TTFT 686ms 🟢 RTX 5090 — 160.37 tok/s, TTFT 409ms 🔵 DGX Spark — 59.98 tok/s, TTFT 228ms I went with ollama as the backend because honestly, it's the easiest way for most people to get started. One command, model pulled, done. I used Q4_K_M (24GB) across all four cards. The reason is the 3090 and 4090 don't support NVFP4 (only the 5090 and DGX Spark could use it). Keeping the same quant everywhere felt like the fairest way to compare. And yes, you can absolutely squeeze more performance out of every card with vLLM, SGLang, or TensorRT-LLM. But that's not what this test is about. This is just the out-of-the-box experience for folks who own a GPU and want to try the new model tonight.

“With the release of Aliro 1.0, Nordic gives developers a faster path to adoption,” says Øyvind Strøm, EVP Short-Range at @NordicTweets Semiconductor. "We are delivering a complete, certified software solution that solves the integration of #Aliro and #Matter.” hubs.la/Q044Xbn-0 #csaiot

New demo unlocked. 🔓 At #EmbeddedWorld, we’re showcasing native tap-to-lock / tap-to-unlock with Aliro.

A simple 'Air Trace' tool for Apple VAS certification. It can be completed in one step: import raw trace from device + raw trace to json format + json format to bytes_txt format (certifier app required) #smartspy #apple_vas

this nfc/contactless enromment method is very nice.

We’ve seen incredible growth, both in technology and expertise over this time, and are looking forward to what is all still to come. Thanks to those that made the event a success, and to all those who have spent their careers working with, and developing, the #SmartCard. 👏
