1000 AI Builders Gather for 96-Hour SheNicest Hackathon in Beijing to Build Working Demos
Nearly 1000 creators from diverse disciplines have converged at Beijing National Convention Center Phase II Hall 4 for the SheNicest 2026 “烈变” Summer Thousand-Person Hackathon, now in its intensive creation phase.
Over a continuous 96-hour period participants are turning abstract ideas into runnable, demonstrable products in AI-native applications, agents, intelligent hardware, games and AIGC imagery.
A morning workshop hosted by Hu Xiaona, representing 360AI Business Development, HackingClub and AikerWorld, shifted focus from individual experimentation to enterprise-scale adoption.
She argued that AI is no longer an optional upgrade but a time-sensitive imperative; competitors achieving exponential efficiency gains will leave unchanged organizations behind.
Many companies already see personal productivity rise yet fail to accelerate overall output because existing approval chains, role boundaries and decision processes remain untouched.
Hu Xiaona labeled such superficial efforts AI Cosplay and outlined three concrete stages of genuine transformation: targeted tool empowerment, end-to-end workflow automation and full organizational redesign around human-plus-AI teams.
She further described how future AI-native companies must enable multiple digital agents to collaborate through shared goals, memory and feedback loops rather than operate as isolated tools.
The hackathon’s Demo Day on August 30 will showcase the first prototypes, but participants were reminded that commercial viability requires solving sales, operations and repeatable value delivery long after the event ends.

Reviving Huawei SANEX9510: Expired Certificates, Zero-Byte Keystore and Lost '@' Symbol Fixed Without Database Restart
A three-day postmortem revealed seven independent failures across four TLS contours in a legacy Huawei SANEX9510 telecom OSS platform that had been offline for ten months. The issues included expired certificates, an empty 0-byte PKCS#12 keystore, a missing '@' character in an encrypted TrustStore password, incompatible PKCS#8 private key encryption formats, and connection leaks to Sybase IQ. All components were restored without rebooting servers, restarting the database, or resetting passwords. The engineer mapped every keystore reference across multiple property files to avoid breaking working segments while fixing others. A final table creation for missing DAS_DIRSIZE metadata resolved a month-old import failure unrelated to the certificate problems.

Russian Federal Tax Service Tests Scoring Model to Uncover Concealed Self-Employed Income
The Russian Federal Tax Service is piloting a new scoring system designed to detect self-employed individuals who attempt to hide revenue by improperly canceling receipts in the Moy Nalog application. The model analyzes patterns such as systematic cancellations over specific periods and instances where checks are annulled by partner platforms or banks. Vladimir Maltsev, head of the operational control department at the Federal Tax Service, confirmed that the system is already being tested in several regions. Over the first nine months of 2026, authorities imposed penalties on approximately 3,000 self-employed taxpayers for unlawful receipt cancellations, resulting in fines totaling around 300 million rubles. The approach mirrors risk-assessment techniques long used by banks and focuses not only on incoming funds but also on how users manage recorded transactions. Full details of the scoring parameters and their weighting remain undisclosed to prevent circumvention.
