Ginux has moved active development from an independent bootable kernel to a userspace kernel that runs as an ordinary Linux process, according to its project documentation. The project reports a Rocky Linux 10 baseline that starts systemd, supports a managed console login, updates through enabled repositories and shuts down cleanly. Ginux places a versioned contract between workloads and the host, deciding whether to emulate, mediate or deny managed system calls before they affect the host. The project is testing this boundary for AI agents that execute commands and access files or networks. It remains research software, lacks complete Linux compatibility and is not ready for production workloads.

Tree-Ising preprint reports cheaper weight repairs that improve math accuracy

Researchers report in a preprint that Tree-Ising repairs language model weights with four forward-pass requests and zero LLM tokens. On Qwen3.5-0.8B, the method scored 54.6% on MATH-500, compared with 51.7% for an earlier agent-generated repair under the same evaluation protocol.
