DuckDuckGo offers schools a search alternative as Google tightens AI controls
DuckDuckGo is positioning itself as the search alternative for schools frustrated by Google's tightening AI controls, offering educators a way to disable AI features entirely. It's a smart pivot that acknowledges not every classroom wants an AI assistant baked into search results. For a deeper look at how AI agents are reshaping work, see our coverage of Meta's latest acquisition that lets software teams deploy AI agents working in parallel.
Simplify Conditional Data Entry with Smarter Spreadsheet Logic
Conditional data entry doesn't have to feel like a puzzle with missing pieces. When you select NO under Relevant, the cells for Updated and Moved should automatically display N/A, no errors, no manual work. If YES is chosen, a dropdown with NO, YES, and NEEDED appears instead. That's the kind of logic that transforms spreadsheets from frustrating to functional.

Two AI coding agents face off in a practical head-to-head test
For months, Claude Code has been the default terminal coding agent, but Grok Build's beta arrival on May 14, 2026, changes that dynamic. I ran both through identical prompts on the same real-world tasks to see which genuinely delivers. The results are practical, not theoretical. If you are weighing your options, this comparison cuts through the noise. And for a deeper look at how AI agents refine their approach, check out our piece on Agentic Context Learning.
