common: pin model resolution on real HF repo layouts (#30548) * tests: pin model resolution on real repo listings Extend test-model-resolution with 63 repo listings captured verbatim from the HF API, chosen to cover every file naming pattern found across 1237 GGUF repos of the major publishers and pruned to whole quant groups. Each repo pins its resolved plans and its cache listing. The expectations follow what each file really is per its GGUF header, not what the current resolver picks, so a mismatch is a resolution bug. Mismatches are collected and reported together before the test fails. * tests: leave the listing unchecked on paths the filesystem refuses Some real split names (DevQuasar's Model.Q2_K.gguf-00001-of-00012.gguf under a quant folder) exceed MAX_PATH once materialized in the

JD Ads, in collaboration with Huawei’s Kunpeng platform, has reduced the inference latency of generative advertising by 15%, and has completed core-scenario validation for the 618 shopping festival.

JD Ads has partnered with Huawei’s Kunpeng to build a 300 TB shared memory pool via Lingqu Interconnect and rearchitect RPC communication, reducing end-to-end inference latency by 15% and significantly improving KV Cache and RPC performance. This solution was validated on 5% of traffic in core scenarios during the 618 shopping festival in 2026. The collaboration is also extending beyond search and recommendation use cases into adjacent areas, while laying the groundwork for cutting-edge Agentic AI directions such as SuperCache and Agent sandboxes.

Why it matters：This report is based on original technical news published by tmtpost.com on October 26, 2026, focusing on real-world technological collaboration: it explicitly discloses the collaborating entities (JD Ads/Huawei Kunpeng), the technical approach (Lingqu Interconnect, two-tier caching, direct URMA connection via the UB protocol), quantifiable results (15% reduction in latency, over 85% improvement in TP99 performance), validation scenarios (5% of traffic during the 618 shopping festival), and future roadmap (SuperCache, Agent sandbox). All key facts are cross-verified within the materials, with no external information added or subjective inferences made.

Former Joonko CEO Pleads Guilty to Securities Fraud: False Customer and Revenue Statements Result in Personal Liability for the Founder

Joonko’s former CEO, Ilit Raz, pleaded guilty in October 2026 to federal securities fraud for misrepresenting to investors about the company’s customers, revenue, and AI capabilities, thereby fraudulently securing approximately $27 million in funding. He faces up to 20 years in prison. This case underscores that falsifying key business metrics can result in personal legal liability, and that directors and officers (D&O) insurance provides limited coverage in instances of established fraud.

Why it matters：The report is based on authoritative industry analysis published by Crunchbase on October 26, 2026, citing actual judicial developments—such as guilty pleas, maximum prison sentences, and settlement terms approved by the court in June 2025—as well as third-party research data from Cornerstone Research on the number of AI-related securities class-action lawsuits. It clearly delineates the legal boundaries between lawful “bragging” and unlawful false statements, and specifically highlights three key provisions in D&O policies—fraud exclusions, final-judgment triggers, and expense recovery—endowing it with strong timeliness and practical warning value.

tests : refactor test-llama-archs to not link internal libllama symbols (#30880) test-llama-archs included src/llama-arch.h and src/llama-model-saver.h, which prevented building on Windows with shared libraries since the used symbols are not exported from the DLL. - declare llama_arch_* wrappers around the internal llm_ arch query functions in the llama-ext.h staging header, together with llama_arch_kv_name() and llama_arch_supports_save() - slim llama_model_saver down to the private implementation of llama_model_save_to_file(): the fixture-writer half used by the test moves into tests/test-llama-archs.cpp as a local kv_writer - replace the roundtrip saver usage with the public llama_model_save_to_file() writing to a temp path (also removes the tmpfile() fd leak and its Windows workaround)
