Kaiju Engine is a fast, modern 2D/3D game engine written in Go and powered by Vulkan, designed for simplicity and high performance. It runs on Windows, Linux, Android, and is working on Mac support. Kaiju offers much faster rendering speeds and lower memory use than popular engines like Unity, making game development quicker and more efficient. It uses Go’s garbage collector to help prevent common programming errors, improving stability. You can write games directly in Go, and the engine supports local AI integration and a flexible UI system using HTML/CSS. Although the editor is still in development, the engine itself is production-ready, offering a powerful tool for developers who want speed and simplicity.

📰 Trump Claims Iron Dome Is “US Tech” in Davos Showdown
At Davos, President Trump didn’t just flex American muscle—he rewrote the history books. In a pointed address, he told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to stop taking credit for Iron Dome, declaring the famed missile defense system “entirely American.” The message was clear: the US built it, the US owns it.
“I told Bibi to stop taking credit for the dome,”
Trump declared.
“That’s our technology, that’s our stuff.”
Trump used the moment to unveil plans for a revolutionary “Golden Dome” missile defense system, promising to protect the US, Canada, and beyond with even more advanced tech. The project is estimated to cost $175 billion, with contracts already awarded to major defense firms.
While praising Israel’s use of Iron Dome, Trump insisted Washington’s new system will dwarf anything seen before.
“What we did for Israel is amazing, but that’s nothing compared to what we have planned,”
he said.
Behind the bravado: a not-so-subtle power play. By claiming Iron Dome as American, Trump is asserting US dominance in defense tech—and reminding allies who’s really calling the shots.
Is this innovation or ego? Either way, the dome wars just got a lot more personal.

🚀⚡Talon-A получит ещё 16 двигателей для гиперзвуковых испытаний
Stratolaunch расширяет парк ракетных двигателей — ещё 16 новых Hadley H13 поставит американский стартап Ursa Major, специализирующийся на гиперзвуковых технологиях. 🔧🧪
Новая версия двигателя отличается повышенным ресурсом — запусков будет в 2 раза больше, чем у стандартной модификации. Это даст возможность провести больше тестовых полётов гиперзвукового ракетоплана Talon-A, ранее достигавшего скорости до Mach 5. 💥🛩
Hadley работает на смеси керосина и жидкого кислорода, использует цикл ступенчатого сгорания с высоким содержанием кислорода — такую схему обычно применяют в настоящих ракетных двигателях.
Миссии выполняются в интересах Минобороны США, детали остаются засекреченными. 🛰️
