Но у средних и маленьких банков он до сих пор не работает.

Всего должны вернуть $166 млрд — на возврат претендуют «десятки тысяч» компаний.

Пока продаётся в Китае.

Их ввели в конце февраля 2026 года.

Это третий город, где работает функция — после Москвы и Новосибирска.

В апреле 2026 года рост составил 104%.

Три года, сэкономленные на затратах два миллиарда долларов, увольнение семи тысяч человек, но затеявший всё это человек так и не смог заставить числа работать.

И такая это была компания: профессиональная, влюблённая в своё дело и вкладывающая в него всё.

Остаткам отдела продаж постоянно повторяли, что Metabo и Metabo HPT останутся независимыми компаниями и что волноваться не о чем.

Она входит в крупную группу (Knipex Group), но не торгуется на бирже и не продаётся.

Это медленнее, это сложнее, и ваш график роста не впечатлит аналитика с Уолл-стрит.

Как это происходитМне написал пользователь Хабр Карьеры Олег Назаров @artshub09 (аккаунт заблокирован после репорта).

Именно на это и расчёт, беглый взгляд не вызывает подозрений.

Жертва получает доступ, открывает в VSCode и думает: «это специально для меня, значит серьёзные ребята».

Но тут коллега принес блок питания, который покупался для тестов устройств с Power Delivery, со словами: «Два раза зарядил телефон и блок питания перестал работать».

Это не панацея, но с учетом общего времени работы («два раза зарядил телефон»), перехожу к изучению второй платы.

Чтобы не потерять мощный USB TYPE-C, я взял транзисторы с канала USB-A, а туда запаял свои.

Чтобы не пришлось снова разбирать блок питания и менять ключи (а может и телефон), обмотал конденсаторы несколькими слоями полиимидного скотча.

Если это не так, то рано или поздно данная проблема проявится на всех без исключения таких блоках питания.

Блокнот — это, блин, приложение для простых ЗАМЕТОК, а не замена Word, калькулятор — это калькулятор, а не планировщик лунной миссии НАСА.

Вроде бы, по современным меркам 50 МБ — это не так много, но в том-то и смысл: эти мегабайты постепенно накапливаются.

Обычно смысл этого заключался не в удобстве пользования, а в индивидуальности.

Всё остальное исчезает, и визуально, и с точки зрения интерактивности.

Культура десктопного UI перестала считать крутыми безумные скины, она хочет, чтобы окна надёжно работали и не мешали процессу.

Это не сюжет научно-фантастического комикса; это строгая, математически обоснованная концепция на стыке астрофизики, инженерии и поиска внеземного разума (SETI).

Это в десять миллиардов раз превышает общее энергопотребление современного человечества [9].

Самой амбициозной концепцией в этой категории является «Звёздный буксир», предложенный исследователем А. А. Свороносом [3].

По мере старения звёзды становятся менее надёжными и, в конечном итоге, враждебными к жизни.

Цивилизация II типа может рассматривать близлежащую двойную звёздную систему не как объект исследования, а как ферму плюс шахту.

К сожалению, длина URL-адреса ограничена, так что я могу запросить только 20 дополнительных страниц.

У меня был API-ключ с правом записи, так что я очистил эту таблицу.

Большинство из них есть как в Firefox, так и в Chrome, у них похожие сайты, и в пользовательском соглашении каждого упоминается Innover Online Group Ltd, причём в виде .png.

Так как я дважды соскрейпил все расширения Firefox, то вижу, какие из них были удалены.

До этого я писал, что в DevTools не загружались никакие расширения, так как это была страница about:, но вот я установил webhint и перешёл на about:support, где оно вполне отобразилось.

Вот только считали объем памяти тогда не в гигабайтах, а в словах.

Эта логика прослеживается и в самом коде: все команды и их назначение прописаны максимально прозрачно.

В результате значительная часть времени уходит не на основную логику, а на разбор того, как взаимодействуют между собой отдельные компоненты.

Если в системе возникает ошибка, ее источник может находиться на любом уровне, и поиск причины превращается в долгий и не всегда предсказуемый процесс.

История Apollo 11 хорошо показывает, что в критически важных задачах программирование — это полноценная инженерная работа, где важны не только функции, но и предсказуемость поведения.

А еще можно приспособить их для полезного дела - показывать температуру воды в котле, например - чтобы не бегать смотреть на основные экраны "умного дома", и не хвататься за телефон.

По даташиту он может работать с кассой как по USB, так и по RS232, в зависимости от кабеля.

На самом дисплее всего один разьем типа RJ45, но он не сетевой, просто для удобства подключения кабелей.

Конечно, кабель можно прозвонить тестером - но кто его знает, какой провод к чему относится, раз уж тут всё не по стандарту?

Пришлось лезть внутрь - и не зря.

Именно это и стало поводом для поста: я хочу объяснить, что я считаю функциональным языком — и почему JS таковым не является.

Не перечислить отсутствующие фичи, а показать, почему их нет и что это значит в реальном рантайме.

В JS — в рантайме.

Это и есть гравитация языка: не злой умысел, не плохие разработчики — просто путь наименьшего сопротивления ведёт не туда.

Каждое из ограничений — не баг и не просчёт.

В этой же статье мы посмотрим, можно ли использовать локальные модели для написания кода с помощью тех же агентов.

Локальные модели: компромисс качества и ресурсовЛокальные модели и ресурсыСразу становится понятно, что за приватность придётся платить качеством модели.

Архитектура Apple Silicon: процессоры серии M используют так называемую unified memory (унифицированная память) — это общая память и для графического, и для центрального процессора.

Но с другой стороны, все работающие приложения потребляют ту же память, что и модель, и могут мешать друг другу.

При этом зависимостей нет: mov rdx, 0 и mov rax, 536700 — полные 64-битные перезаписи, цепочка разорвана.

И как вообще так получилось, что все, что вокруг деления на в одном случае ничего не стоит, а в другом случае обходится лишь в 1 такт.

Ну вы и сами всё поймёте.

Вы делитесь со мной историями своей жизни и рассказываете то, что хотите, чтобы я знал о том, как Apple повлияла на вас.

Сегодня мы объявили, что я делаю следующий шаг в своём пути в Apple.

Джону небезразлично, кто мы, что мы делаем в Apple, до кого достучимся.

Под его руководством эта компания достигнет невероятных высот, и вы почувствуете его влияние в каждом моменте восторга и открытий, которые принесут будущие продукты и сервисы.

Тим Кук сумел отговорить главного инженера Джони Сруджи от ухода из компании, предложив ему должность Chief Hardware Officer — технического директора Apple.

Он присоединился к команде Джобса в 2008 году и занялся разработкой Apple A4 — первой собственной эппловской системы-на-чипе, предназначавшейся для iPhone 4 и iPad.

Теперь Сруджи замкнёт на себе весь штат инженеров, включая свою старую команду электронщиков, а также подразделения, которые подчинялись Тернусу до его повышения на позицию CEO Apple.

По данным Марка Гурмана из Bloomberg, Сруджи уже призвал подчинённых готовиться к переменам, теперь все инженеры Apple будут разделены на пять команд:отдел разработки аппаратного обеспечения,от…

HUAWEI устроила апгрейд Pura 80 Pro, но понизила в премиальности саму серию Pura.

Камеры обновили, но слегка ухудшили, смартфон потерял Ultra-версию, как предсказывали инсайдеры, и приобрёл версию Max с экраном побольше.

При этом увеличилась батарея, а в новой версии Pro Max — ещё и экран.

Также в Pro Max в экран встроили антибликовое покрытие.

Продажи стартуют в Китае 29 апреля: Pura 90 Pro — от 5500 юаней (~ 70 тысяч рублей) за минимальную версию, а Pura 90 Pro Max — от 6500 юаней (~ 82 тысячи рублей) до 8500 юаней (94 тысячи).

Виртуальный оператор будет работать на сетях «билайна», а разработкой сервиса и маркетингом займётся материнская компания, — пишет «КоммерсантЪ».

Собеседники издания говорят, что новинка поможет «Яндексу» собирать ещё больше данных о пользователях.

Пока что новинка доступна в Адмиралтейском, Василеостровском, Московском, Петроградском и Центральном районах, но в ближайшее время сервис будет поддерживать все умные светофоры города.

Её развитие вылилось в новые разделы приложения: «Настроения и занятия», «Жанры», «Похоже на прослушанное» и «Микс по артистам».

Последние два предлагают новые треки и исполнителей на основе наиболее подходящих к плейлисту юзера.

Apple ещё три года назад с релизом iPhone 15 увеличила количество циклов перезарядки аккумулятора с 500 до 1000.

В инициативе ЕС есть исключение для тех случаев, когда после 1000 циклов перезарядки батарея сохраняет 80 % ёмкости.

Для них, как и для современных iPhone, в сменной батарее нет необходимости.

А сильнее всего закон ударит по продающимся в Европе бюджетным смартфонам, которые 1000 циклов перезарядки не выдержат.

Но Apple, Samsung, Google и другие компании продолжат продавать свои смартфоны в том виде, к которому мы привыкли.

Похоже, пришло их время: вся линейка iPhone 11, а также iPhone SE (2-го поколения) останутся заложниками текущей версии ОС, если верить инсайдеру Instant Digital.

Для обновления понадобится как минимум iPhone 12 или SE 3.

Новую iOS 27 покажут в рамках WWDC 2026 8 июня.

Операторы связи предложили Минцифры взять на себя обязанность по ведению реестра IMEI за соответствующую плату.

Бизнес предлагает создать целевой фонд поддержки сетей и импортозамещения, который будет пополняться в том числе за счёт средств с регистрации IMEI-номеров, — сообщают «Известия».

Эксперт издания объяснил, что для оператора внесение IMEI — это лишь ещё одна строчка в документах, и дополнительных затрат она не несёт.

«Тогда получается, что это то ли налог на роскошь (хотя смартфон давно перестал быть таковой), то ли акциз», — заключил специалист.

Система будет знать, находится ли SIM-карта в смартфоне или в беспилотнике.

Показанный год назад Pura X — это, если хотите, широкий «Флип», а Pura X Max — широкий «Фолд».

Отличия от обычного Pura X не только в габаритах.

При этом если у Pura X внутренний 6,3-дюймовый дисплей имеет соотношение сторон 16:10, то у Pura X Max — 14,1:10.

В сложенном виде габариты 120 × 85 × 11,2 мм, а в разложенном — 120 × 166,5 × 5,2 мм.

Дата появления в продаже HUAWEI Pura X Max пока неизвестна.

Фотографией поделился инсайдер Маджин Бу.

Цвета детали соответствуют недавнему инсайду Macworld, который считает, что новые «Прошки» получат тёмно-вишнёвый, тёмно-серый, светло-голубой и серебристый варианты.

Касательно самих цветов: из-за освещения вишнёвый уходит в какой-то коричневый, а серебристый выглядит как Starlight.

Если Маджин скинул не крышки для айфонов с «Алика», то уверенность в новом цвете Dark Cherry растёт.

А ничего скандального или шокирующего у них и не было — лишь разные данные о финансах и продажах.

Хотя, ходят слухи, что в этот раз ПК-версия Grand Theft Auto VI выйдет с меньшей задержкой от консольной.

После 6 месяцев разработки представлен релиз среды рабочего стола LXQt 2.4.0 (Qt Lightweight Desktop Environment), продолжающей развитие проектов LXDE и Razor-qt. Интерфейс LXQt следует идеям классической организации рабочего стола, но привносит современное оформление и приёмы, увеличивающие удобство работы. LXQt позиционируется как легковесное, модульное, быстрое и удобное окружение, вобравшее лучшие черты LXDE и Razor-qt. Код размещён на GitHub и поставляется под лицензиями GPL 2.0+ и LGPL 2.1+. Появление готовых сборок ожидается для Ubuntu (LXQt по умолчанию предлагается в Lubuntu), Arch Linux, Fedora, openSUSE, Mageia, FreeBSD, ROSA и ALT Linux.

Кент Оверстрит (Kent Overstreet) опубликовал выпуск файловой системы Bcachefs 1.38.0. Выпуск охватывает два пакета: bcachefs-kernel-dkms с модулем ядра, собираемым при помощи системы DKMS (Dynamic Kernel Module Support), и bcachefs-tools с запускаемой в пространстве пользователя утилитой bcachefs, реализующей команды для создания (mkfs), монтирования, восстановления и проверки ФС. Пакеты собраны для Arch Linux и ожидаются для Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, openSUSE и NixOS. DKMS-модуль поддерживает работу с ядрами Linux, начиная с 6.16.

Линус Торвальдс принял в состав ядра Linux 7.1, релиз которого ожидается в середине июня, набор патчей с новой реализацией файловой системы NTFS, развивавшейся под именем ntfsplus. Новый драйвер включён под именем "ntfs", которое ранее использовалось для удалённого из ядра старого драйвера, работавшего в режиме только для чтения. Драйвер ntfsplus разработал Намджэ Чон (Namjae Jeon), участник проекта Samba, сопровождающий драйвер EXFAT и сервер KSMBD в ядре Linux.

Разработчики платформы автоматизации планирования встреч и управления расписанием Cal.com объявили о прекращении публикации исходного кода полной версии продукта и предоставлении сообществу урезанного форка cal.diy, переведённого с AGPLv3.0 на лицензию MIT. В качестве причины изменения подхода к разработке упоминается возрастание рисков, связанных с обеспечением безопасности SaS-платформы, в условиях прогресса возможностей AI-моделей по поиску уязвимостей и написанию эксплоитов.

Разработчики проекта AlmaLinux, развивающего редакцию дистрибутива Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), объявили о реализации для дистрибутива AlmaLinux Kitten репозитория пакетов, собранных для архитектуры i686, а также публикации образов контейнеров в формате docker для 32-рядных систем x86. Редакция AlmaLinux Kitten 10 основана на пакетной базе CentOS Stream 10, развивается с использованием непрерывной модели обновления пакетов и используется в качестве upstream-а для ветки AlmaLinux 10. В дальнейшем планируют сформировать подобные сборки для основного дистрибутива AlmaLinux OS 10 и сопровождать их до 2035 года на всём протяжении жизненного цикла ветки 10.x.

После четырёх месяцев разработки представлено апрельское сводное обновление приложений KDE Gear 26.04, развиваемых проектом KDE. В составе набора опубликованы выпуски 249 программ, библиотек и плагинов. Информацию о наличии Live-сборок с новыми выпусками приложений можно получить на данной странице. Новые версии отдельных приложений можно загрузить из каталогов Flathub и SnapCraft.

Линус Торвальдс принял в состав ядра Linux 7.1 изменения, удаляющие поддержку контроллеров AHCI SATA и PCIe, применяемых в SoC Baikal-T1. Помимо этого на рассмотрении находятся pull-запросы на удаление связанных с Baikal драйверов таймера, памяти, physmap, шины, hwmon, dwc и bt1-rom. До этого в ядре 7.0 уже была удалена поддержка драйверов i2c и spi dw для SoC Baikal-T1. В качестве причины удаления упоминается отсутствие сопровождения и незавершённая интеграция в состав ядра компонентов платформы Baikal. Например, отмечается, что драйвер PCIe так и не был доведён до полностью работоспособного состояния.

Организация IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force), занимающийся развитием протоколов и архитектуры интернета, выставила на обсуждение первый черновой вариант спецификации протокола IPv8. Документ предложен сторонней компаний One Limited, создан вне процесса стандартизации IETF и имеет статус "Internet-Draft" (любой при соблюдении формальностей может опубликовать подобный черновик). Протокол IPv8 примечателен использованием локально кэшируемых JWT-токенов OAuth2 для аутентификации элементов в сетях и верификацией каждого устанавливаемого исходящего соединения через запрос в DNS8 (без обращения к DNS8 не создаётся запись в таблице состояния XLATE8 (подобие NAT) и соединение блокируется).

Линус Торвальдс принял в состав ядра Linux 7.1, релиз которого ожидается в середине июня, первую серию изменений для прекращения поддержки процессоров i486. На данном этапе из Kconfig удалены опции для сборки ядра с поддержкой процессоров 486DX, 486SX и AMD ELAN (CONFIG_M486, CONFIG_M486SX и CONFIG_MELAN), а из Makefile исключены опции компиляции для систем i486 (-march=i486). Код для фактической поддержки работы на процессорах i486 пока оставлен в ядре, но сборка для подобных систем теперь потребует применения патчей к сборочным файлам.

Состоялся релиз библиотеки OpenSSL 4.0.0, предлагающей с реализацию протоколов TLS и различных алгоритмов шифрования.

OpenSSL 4.0 отнесён к выпускам с обычным сроком поддержки, обновления для которых выпускаются в течение 13 месяцев.

Поддержка прошлых веток OpenSSL 3.6, 3.5 LTS, 3.4 и 3.0 LTS продлится до ноября 2026 года, апреля 2030 года, октября 2026 года и сентября 2026 года соответственно.

Основные новшества: Добавлена поддержка TLS-расширения ECH (Encrypted ClientHello, RFC 9849), предназначенного для шифрования информации о параметрах TLS-сеансов, таких как запрошенное доменное имя.

Добавлена поддержка функций формирования ключей SNMP KDF на основе HMAC-SHA и SRTP KDF на основе AES-C…

Tim Cook reshaped Apple in his own image and exits as CEO on his own terms, seemingly picking the right successor in John Ternus, much like Jobs did with Cook — It's a profoundly different feeling today than the last time Apple's CEO announced his transition to chairman of the board …

The Pentagon has canceled a ground control system for the US military’s GPS satellite navigation network after the program’s enduring problems “proved insurmountable,” the US Space Force announced in a press release Monday.

The decision to terminate the OCX program ends a 16-year, multibillion-dollar effort to design, test, and deliver a command and control system for the military’s constellation of GPS navigation satellites.

RTX finally delivered the control system to the Space Force last year, but further tests revealed it was still not ready for GPS operations.

“RTX is aware of the US Government decision regarding the GPS OCX program,” an RTX spokesperson said in a statement.

Apple CEO Tim Cook will step down from the job effective September 1, 2026.

As has long been rumored, Senior Vice President of Hardware Engineering John Ternus will become Apple’s new CEO.

While Cook will no longer serve as CEO, he will remain with the company in a different capacity as executive chairman.

“As executive chairman, Cook will assist with certain aspects of the company, including engaging with policymakers around the world,” Apple says.

In a statement, Cook offered the usual positive words about his time as CEO:It has been the greatest privilege of my life to be the CEO of Apple and to have been trusted to lead such an extraordinary company.

With this bananas context came headlines in the past few days suggesting that eating fruits, vegetables, and whole grains can be bad for you.

The study is being presented at the American Association for Cancer Research conference this week and hasn’t been peer reviewed.

A “stretch”According to the abstract, researchers led by Jorge Nieva at the University of Southern California analyzed dietary survey data from 166 non-smokers who developed lung cancer under age 50.

Based on those scores, researchers found that the participants had higher scores for consuming fruits, vegetables, and whole grains compared with reference values for the general population.

Without any more data, the researcher…

The US government today opened an online portal for submitting tariff refund requests, two months after the Supreme Court ruled that President Trump illegally imposed the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) tariffs.

The refunds will be paid to importers and customs brokers, while consumers who paid higher prices because of the tariffs won’t necessarily get anything back.

US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) opened the Consolidated Administration and Processing of Entries (CAPE) portal for IEEPA refunds.

“Importers and authorized customs brokers can now file their CAPE Declarations,” said a CBP bulletin issued today.

As The New York Times wrote today, it would not be surpri…

After spending the last couple of weeks discussing the problem, Formula 1’s stakeholders have arrived at a number of solutions to the sport’s hybrid energy problem.

Recharging is done through a mixture of regenerative braking and what the sport calls “super clipping,” using the engine to power the electric motor as a generator to charge the battery.

And without an electric motor at the front axle, the cars can only harvest a few MJ via regenerative braking each lap.

And the cars can harvest more energy while super clipping—the full 350 kW rather than the 250 kW allowed in the first three race weekends this year.

The FIA (the sport’s organizers) says that should mean just 2–4 seconds of supe…

Humanoid robots outran the fastest human competitors while surpassing the human world record during a half-marathon event held in Beijing on April 19.

That beat the human world record of 57 minutes and 20 seconds recently set by Ugandan long-distance runner Jacob Kiplimo during the Lisbon Half Marathon.

Last year’s inaugural half-marathon for robotic competitors saw the fastest robot record a race time of 2 hours and 40 minutes—still significantly slower than the human winner of the 2025 event.

But overall, humanoid robots still have a long way to go in demonstrating their capability to operate in complex and sometimes chaotic environments.

Companies are betting that humanoid robots powered…

Most streamers don’t go out of their way to label AI music, but Deezer has worked to develop technology to identify that content.

In a recent update, the company says AI music is approaching half of all new uploads, and most of the supposed listeners of those streams are AI themselves.

That’s due, in part, to the fact that AI music can fly under the radar.

Deezer says it has developed technology to detect AI uploads, and it’s one of the few streamers to explicitly label such content.

As generative audio models have proliferated, the rate of AI uploads to Deezer has reached a staggering 44 percent—that’s 75,000 new AI tracks on Deezer every single day.

Judge Dredd has two movies of varying quality, but attempts to follow the 2012 version with a TV show appear to have sputtered out.

But Dredd is not the be-all and end-all of 2000 AD (real ones know he wasn’t even in the first issue), and later this year, director Duncan Jones (Moon) will translate another beloved character from the printed page: Rogue Trooper, the teaser for which was released earlier today.

The Rogue Trooper teaser trailer.

Created by Gerry Finley-Day and Dave Gibbons, Rogue Trooper is a future war story set on the toxic hellscape that is Nu Earth.

Except for the Genetic Infantry, blue super soldiers engineered by the Southers to survive the poisonous atmosphere.

Bruce the kea—a species of alpine parrot native to New Zealand—lost his upper beak in an accident as a young bird.

But that hasn’t stopped him from becoming the dominant male in his kea community (known as a “circus”) at the Willowbank Wildlife Reserve.

In 2021, scientists at the Kea Animal Minds Lab at the University of Auckland studied Bruce and other non-disabled kea and found that Bruce exhibited unusual preening behavior to compensate for his missing upper beak.

So Bruce didn’t learn this behavior by watching other birds; he figured it out on his own.

Bruce was involved in 36 interactions and won them all, thereby cementing his alpha status.

Anthropic’s new Mythos AI model is raising concern among governments and companies that it could outpace current cyber security defenses, turbocharge hacking, and expose weaknesses faster than they can be fixed.

In one alarming case, the Mythos model showed it could break out of a secure digital environment to contact an Anthropic worker and publicly reveal software glitches, overriding the intention of its human makers.

This week, OpenAI also released its own advanced cyber model with similar capabilities.

Last week, US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Federal Reserve Chair Jay Powell summoned some of the largest US banks to discuss the cyber threats the AI model posed.

When the companies disabled HEVC support built into the CPUs of select PCs, it raised uncomfortable questions: Why remove a capability that’s already a part of third-party hardware?

What do OEMs and chipmakers pay to support HEVC—and are HEVC patent holders effectively double-dipping on licensing fees and royalties?

Implementing video codecs requires navigating an intricate web of technical and legal requirements built atop an even more complex patent licensing system.

We spoke with experts to unpack how HEVC patent licensing works for consumer products, why patent holders are suing, why some users are being forced to pay for the codec, and whether there’s a better option.

Three minutes into the flight, the booster switched off its engines and fell away from New Glenn’s upper stage, powered by two BE-3U engines burning liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen.

New Glenn’s first stage continued a downrange parabolic arc, briefly soaring into space before guiding itself toward Blue Origin’s landing platform in the Atlantic Ocean nearly 400 miles southeast of Cape Canaveral.

Blue Origin, founded and owed by Amazon’s Jeff Bezos, has landed and reused its smaller New Shepard suborbital booster numerous times, but New Glenn surpasses New Shepard in difficulty and scale.

New Glenn allows Blue Origin to reach into a broader market for launches to low-Earth orbit and beyond.…

I was the lead laser scientist on the Texas Petawatt, or TPW as we called it, from 2020 to 2024.

Texas Petawatt, which is currently closed due to funding cuts, was a government-funded research center where scientists from across the country applied for time to use specialized equipment.

Then it compresses the pulse back to a trillionth of a second to create a star in a vacuum chamber.

Most people hear about petawatt lasers and picture something out of a movie.

A “shot day” is actually hours of quiet, repetitive work followed by about 10 seconds where nobody breathes.

Apple’s current SVP of hardware engineering John Ternus will take over as the new CEO when Tim Cook steps down this September.

He also turned the company into a service provider with the launch of Apple TV, Apple Music and several other subscription services.

Ternus joined Apple in 2001 and became VP of hardware engineering in 2013, later transitioning to a senior executive role in 2021.

You might have spotted Ternus being prominently featured at the MacBook Neo launch a few months ago.

While mission specialist Christina Koch was using a Nikon camera to snap stunning still images of the Earthset, Wiseman used an iPhone 17 Pro Max to film the moment.

The review site has upgraded its Yelp Assistant, an agentic AI chatbot, to work across all of Yelp's categories.

Yelp Assistant was initially launched in 2024 with a limited scope and then expanded in 2025.

With the latest update to its chatbot, Yelp Assistant can handle natural language queries for finding a specific local business.

Yelp Assistant can also use these integrated services for booking appointments in related fields.

Other AI features coming to Yelp include a personalized home page on mobile and extra photo discovery tools.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is reportedly developing smart glasses that could be used to collect intelligence on immigrants and US citizens, journalist Ken Klippenstein reported.

The DHS wants to deploy the "ICE Glasses" by September 2027.

It's not the first time smart glasses have come up in reports about the DHS.

An investigation by The Independent last month found that ICE and Border Patrol agents in six states were using Meta's AI smart glasses of their own accord, in possible violation of DHS rules.

Congress has reportedly been notified of the DHS's Ice Glasses project but has yet to comment publicly.

The HD 480 Pro is essentially a closed-back reimagining of the company's popular HD 490 Pro headset.

Both headphones are designed for audio professionals, aiming to fit both a studio or a live performance setting.

The HD 480 Pro aims to address two complaints for closed-back headsets: comfort for long wearing sessions and accurate bass reproduction.

Sennheiser uses what it dubs a "Vibration Attenuation System" to prevent distortions or reflections in the audio signal.

To address comfort, the HD 480 Pro uses some of the same proprietary fit features as the HD 490 Pro, including cushioned pads at the temples for people also wearing glasses and a design that maintains equal contact pressure fo…

If Instagram has been turning your color photo posts into black and white recently, don’t worry, there’s no problem with your camera or your account.

The Meta-owned app has confirmed to Engadget that the issue is caused by a bug that’s affecting HDR photos in particular.

Regardless of when the bug started causing problems, the Instagram team said it has since corrected the issue.

If your posts are still showing up in black and white, Instagram said the fix will automatically turn your affected photo posts back to their original state over the ne…

Amazon and Anthropic are strengthening their ties once again, with steep financial commitments made on both sides.

Today, Amazon announced that it will invest $5 billion in the AI company, along with as much as $20 billion in additional payments if certain milestones are met.

This news follows the initial $4 billion investment Amazon made in Anthropic in 2023 and a second $4 billion round from 2024.

The latest agreement will see Anthropic promising to spend more than $100 billion on AWS technologies over the coming decade.

Their partnership is also bringing Anthropic's Claude platform to Amazon Web Services customers within the AWS portal, removing the need for additional credentials.

After debuting in the US, Gemini in Chrome is making its way to more markets.

Starting today, Google is rolling out Chrome's built-in chatbot to users in countries in East Asia and the Pacific, including Australia, Indonesia, Japan, the Philippines, Singapore, South Korea and Vietnam.

The expansion comes after Google earlier this year made Gemini in Chrome available to people in Canada, India and New Zealand.

It will open a new sidebar Google introduced at the start of the year where you can chat with Gemini across every open tab.

If you don't want to use Gemini, you can right click on the shortcut to unpin it from the top of the interface.

Apple CEO Tim Cook is officially stepping down from his role on September 1, the company announced today, while current SVP of hardware engineering John Ternus will take over as the new CEO.

“It has been the greatest privilege of my life to be the CEO of Apple and to have been trusted to lead such an extraordinary company,” Cook said in a statement.

He also pushed the company into being more of a service provider with the launch of Apple TV and Apple Music.

While he’s had a strong reputation as a logistics-oriented executive, Cook has been criticized for lacking the product vision that Jobs was known for.

He became VP of hardware engineering in 2013, and later transitioned to a senior execu…

Mastodon seems to be recovering after a Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack that took down its primary mastodon.social instance.

It's not clear who might be behind the attack, but Mastodon's head of communications Andy Piper described it as a "major" incident.

Mastodon is the second decentralized platform to be targeted with a DDoS in recent days.

Last week, Bluesky also dealt with a significant DDoS incident that took parts of the service offline for several hours.

Its official status page was down, and a post from its server status account indicated that there were "elevated errors and timeouts on some Bluesky-hosted services."

Sony is adopting new age verification policies for PlayStation users in the UK and Ireland.

The company isn't making this a blanket requirement, but steps to confirm age will be needed to access "communication, broadcasting, and certain in-game features" beginning in June 2026.

Some in-game communication tools, like chats or sharing user-generated content, will also only be available after an age check is completed.

Although the new requirements will not be enforced until summer, users are already being prompted to get the verification process squared away.

Roblox also began requiring age checks and those results were not great.

Ubisoft has scheduled a livestream for April 23 at 12PM ET to discuss the long-awaited Assassin's Creed Black Flag remake.

It's officially called Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced and has been rumored to be in development for years .

Advertisement AdvertisementAdvertisementFor instance, rumors have been swirling that this is a total top-to-bottom remake and not a simple port.

That makes sense given the continued popularity of Black Flag .

It's also been rumored that this new version will cut out all of the modern day gameplay sections , with a total focus on pirate-themed action.

The professional network is experimenting with a new feature that allows people to test AI platforms' latest offerings within LinkedIn.

It’s called Crosscheck, and it's rolling out now to anyone with a LinkedIn Premium subscription in the United States.

The feature is meant to be a kind of "blind taste test" for AI models, according to the company's Chief Product Officer Hari Srinivasan.

Users start with a prompt and get two answers, each of which is provided by a different model.

While Crosscheck is initially only available to LinkedIn Premium subscribers in the United States, the company plans to expand the the feature to more countries and free users “soon.”

History will remember many, many things about Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.

A great (great, great) many will be bad.

Interestingly, and probably not all that surprising, the person who delivered the line, Oscar Isaac, recently admitted that “Somehow, Palpatine returned” was captured in a reshoot.

Oscar Isaac is the best, and this line, dumb as it may be, is also the best.

But either way, it’s a wonderful piece of trivia about one of the most infamous moments in Star Wars history.

Getting on that stellar network at the prices offered by Metro by T-Mobile is most definitely not settling for less.

That’s one line of unlimited talk, text and 5G data, taxes and fees included, running on T-Mobile’s ultra-fast network.

Unlimited data means unlimited, with the standard caveat that customers using more than 35GB per month may notice reduced speeds during congestion.

The free Samsung A17 5G and an iPhone 16e at no cost require porting your number.

A free phone, a locked-in rate, and a network that’s earned its ranking aren’t minor concessions to get you in the door.

The team behind Jerk installed its tool at the Piton de la Fournaise on La Réunion Island, France, in 2014, where it still sits today.

At the Piton de la Fournaise, Jerk was installed around 8 kilometers [5 miles] from the volcano.

Gizmodo: So Jerk is quite good at predicting eruptions, at least for Piton de la Fournaise.

With multiple stations, we hope to locate where these tiny signals are happening and whether they’re different compared to Piton de la Fournaise.

NASA’s Curiosity Mars rover has spent more than 13 years exploring the 3.5-billion-year-old Gale crater, slowly climbing a central mound known as Mount Sharp.

Using a rover-enabled chemical experiment that had never been performed on another planet before, researchers detected more than 20 organic molecules in clay-rich Martian sandstones.

This helped them locate places to search for organic molecules, as clay is made up of charged particles that readily bind to organic matter and preserve it.

That experiment used a chemical called tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) to break apart larger, more complex organic molecules inside rocks collected by Curiosity.

You can probably rattle off Steve Jobs and Tim Cook, and maybe throw in John Scully.

John Ternus, who will replace Tim Cook as Apple CEO in September, could become a celebrity CEO like Steve Jobs and Tim Cook.

But Apple has maintained a relatively cuddly reputation as a workplace, even in our tech-critical era.

Ternus can talk at length about which chips are in which gadget and why:According to Apple, Ternus studied mechanical engineering at Penn, got a job as an engineer at a virtual reality company, and then switched over to Apple, where he started off as an engineer focused on external monitors.

Some of Apple’s timidity around AI and smart home devices are chalked up to Ternus, accordi…

It makes total sense that Disney and Marvel will re-release Avengers: Endgame ahead of Avengers: Doomsday.

The Endgame re-release will contain some new footage.

As Deadline reports, Joe Russo spread the word while speaking (over Zoom from the U.S.) at the Sands Film Festival in Scotland.

“It’s critically important to re-release the movie, and, in fact, we’ll be re-releasing the film with footage that is set in the Doomsday story that we have added to Avengers: Endgame,” Joe Russo explained.

Apparently, in order to be ready for Doomsday, you’ll have to buy a ticket for Endgame‘s re-release so you can absorb the newly “critical” information the Russos have added in.

The twice-bankrupt air carrier is facing liquidation, thanks in part to rising jet fuel prices since the start of the Iran War and hopes that President Donald Trump can provide a bailout of some kind.

The federal government under President Trump made the exceptional move of buying a 10% stake in Intel and various stakes in at least 10 more private companies.

As a result, the price of jet fuel has soared around the world, with flights already being cancelled and conditions only expected to worsen in the days and weeks ahead.

Some Americans seem to believe the jet fuel shortage won’t impact the U.S., though that belief is misguided at best.

Any U.S. carrier that wants to fly their planes back…

Ever wonder why products on Amazon are sometimes cheaper than on other websites?

According to California Attorney General Rob Bonta, Amazon allegedly pressured brands to increase the prices for their products on other retailers’ websites so that Amazon would have a more competitive price.

Per Bonta, the method of coercion starts with Amazon demanding a vendor “fix,” “correct,” “increase,” “raise,” or “look into” the prices of products on other retailers’ websites.

The expectation is that the vendor will ultimately raise its prices everywhere but Amazon.

To get that outcome, Amazon would allegedly threaten to punish the brand by restricting their advertising, demanding …

The ongoing ramifications of the leak of The Legend of Aang: The Last Airbender online last week continue to be a major reflection on Paramount’s broader stewardship of the series.

Fans have debated endlessly in the past week over whether or not resharing clips from the film or watching it wholesale online is justified as a form of protest against the decision to release Legend of Aang in theaters.

Release it in theaters.

In the meantime, Paramount is continuing its investigation into the leak of the film, and otherwise quietly taking down whatever clips and files make their way onto social media.

Whenever it actually intends to talk about the movie beyond the leak to promote it, consideri…

Now, there's another class of high-end gaming laptop that focuses more on performance than being thin or portable.

Cheap Gaming Laptops That Are Worth ItNo gaming laptops worth buying are actually cheap.

Like many medical school students, Sam was broke.

Sam, who requested a pseudonym to avoid jeopardizing his medical career and immigration status, tried a few things, with varying degrees of legitimacy and success.

But when Sam started posting generic photos of a beautiful, scantily clad woman on Instagram, he was dismayed to find that none of the content was hitting.

“If you create a generic ‘hot girl,’ you’re competing with a million other models,” it said, according to a transcript Sam provided to WIRED.

“Every day I’d write something pro-Christian, pro-Second Amendment, pro-life, anti-abortion, anti-woke, and anti-immigration,” he tells me.

At just 1.3 oz, the Tri Run is just slightly heavier than the Shokz OpenRun Pro 2, and that’s a good thing.

That’s the same rating attached to the more expensive Tri 2 Pro headphones ($200).

It’s difficult to find much information about Daniel Micay online.

Meanwhile, Claude refers to him as a “formidable independent mobile security researcher” who is “widely described as socially abrasive” (for whatever that’s worth).

At the time, Micay was a security researcher and open source developer with an interest in the fast-growing mobile space.

The meteor shower known as the Lyrids will illuminate the sky, especially in the northern hemisphere, and anyone will be able to see it with the naked eye, weather permitting—if they know where to look.

The Lyrids began to appear as early as April 14, but their activity peaks between the night of April 21 and the early morning of April 22, according to NASA.

With a dark sky, meteors should stand out easily.

The shower is usually visible from 10 pm to dawn, although early morning offers the best conditions.

Each meteor shower has a different origin.

Over the weekend in China, a humanoid robot shattered world half-marathon record—the human record—by seven minutes.

The human record, set by Ugandan Olympic medalist Jacob Kiplimo, is 57 minutes, 20 seconds.

The event consisted of more than 100 humanoid robots from 76 institutions across China.

Run, Robot, RunA humanoid robot is designed to mimic the structure and movement of the human body, with legs, arms, and sensors that allow it to interact with its environment.

While the physical performance of humanoid robots has advanced rapidly, their reliability is still developing.

Even though some of these devices are marketed as “composters" and have instruction booklets and apps detailing all the ways in which one can use compost, the vast majority of kitchen composters are just going to grind up and dry your food scraps.

Tim Cook is stepping down as the CEO of Apple and transitioning to a role as the company’s executive chairman, effective September 1, the company announced on Monday.

John Ternus, Apple’s senior vice president of hardware engineering, will replace Cook as CEO.

Cook’s time as CEO of Apple will still be marked by tremendous growth for the company.

At the same time, Apple’s accessories unit, which include the best-selling Apple Watch and AirPods, and its services business, which keeps consumers locked into Apple hardware, were advanced during Cook’s tenure.

Cook first joined Apple in 1998, hired directly by Steve Jobs to be the company’s head of global operations.

Ben McKenzie had a question: “When did WIRED die?” Specifically, the actor-director wanted to know when did WIRED “‘DIE,’ all caps.”McKenzie wasn’t asking for himself; he was engaging in the time-honored celebrity tradition of reading mean tweets.

Although, in this case, the object wasn’t himself so much as the publication hosting the event.

McKenzie, who famously played Ryan on The O.C.

before becoming a leading voice of crypto skepticism, was sharing the stage with WIRED senior correspondent Andy Greenberg for the first of what will hopefully be a series of smaller events that we are calling WIRED@Night.

Last Thursday, about a hundred people gathered at event partner Ace Hotel Brooklyn to…

Before the pilot ran out of fuel and would have to do something different, he landed in the backyard.

As ceasefire announcements between the US and Iran—and separately between Israel and Lebanon—dominated headlines over the past two weeks, they also prompted a look back at how war spread online: through memes.

Memes joked that Iran was replying to Israel faster than the person you’re thinking about.

The memes that travel fastest are usually stripped of context, easy to recognize and simple to remix.

Memes Spread Faster Than FactsThe word “meme” was coined by Richard Dawkins in his 1976 book The Selfish Gene, where he described how ideas replicate like genes.

It needs the right format, paired with trending audio and the right emotional shorthand.

Two battery options will deliver a projected WLTP distance of 344 km (around 214 miles) for the Standard Range Ioniq 3; the Long Range version is supposedly good for a competitive 308-mile range.

True, that battery tech was in a $100,000 “premium” EV, but it's coming to BYD's wider models.

I asked José Muñoz, Hyundai Motor Company president and CEO, whether this new battery technology from BYD concerns him, whether Hyundai—leading the EV pack with 800-volt architectures for so long—needs to match the Blade 2.0's performance.

"We are also working on fast charging," Muñoz says, adding that Hyundai's success will be built on not merely one leading technology but many.

Prego, the pasta sauce company, is getting into hardware with a device that sits on your table and records dinner conversations.

It hasn't escaped the attention of the late night hosts that Donald Trump's Iran war strategy doesn't seem to be going as planned.

Jon Stewart spent 22 minutes unpacking the president's supposed "4D chess" on the Daily Show, and Stephen Colbert makes similar comments in the Late Show clip above.

And I'm being told that we made no friends," Colbert says.

"Trump immediately claimed victory, posting, 'Iran has agreed to never close the Strait of Hormuz again.'

And they never did — until the next day, when Iran closed the Strait of Hormuz again."

The standard guidelines for building large language models (LLMs) optimize only for training costs and ignore inference costs. This poses a challenge for real-world applications that use inference-time scaling techniques to increase the accuracy of model responses, such as drawing multiple reasoning samples from a model at deployment.To bridge this gap, researchers at University of Wisconsin-Madison and Stanford University have introduced Train-to-Test (T2) scaling laws, a framework that jointly optimizes a model’s parameter size, its training data volume, and the number of test-time inference samples.In practice, their approach proves that it is compute-optimal to train substantially small…

A rogue AI agent at Meta passed every identity check and still exposed sensitive data to unauthorized employees in March. Two weeks later, Mercor, a $10 billion AI startup, confirmed a supply-chain breach through LiteLLM. Both are traced to the same structural gap.

For the past year, early adopters of autonomous AI agents have been forced to play a murky game of chance: keep the agent in a useless sandbox or give it the keys to the kingdom and hope it doesn't hallucinate a catastrophic "delete all" command.To unlock the true utility of an agent—scheduling meetings, triaging emails, or managing cloud infrastructure—users have had to grant these models raw API keys and broad permissions, raising the risk of their systems being disrupted by an accidental agent mistake. That tradeoff ends today. The creators of the open source sandboxed NanoClaw agent framework — now known under their new private startup named NanoCo — have announced a landmark partnershi…

Salesforce on Wednesday unveiled the most ambitious architectural transformation in its 27-year history, introducing "Headless 360" — a sweeping initiative that exposes every capability in its platform as an API, MCP tool, or CLI command so AI agents can operate the entire system without ever opening a browser.The announcement, made at the company's annual TDX developer conference in San Francisco, ships more than 100 new tools and skills immediately available to developers. It marks a decisive response to the existential question hanging over enterprise software: In a world where AI agents can reason, plan, and execute, does a company still need a CRM with a graphical interface?Salesforce'…

Enterprise AI is entering a new phase — one where the central question is no longer what can be built, but how to make the most of our AI investment.At VentureBeat’s latest AI Impact Tour session, Brian Gracely, director of portfolio strategy at Red Hat, described the operational reality inside large organizations: AI sprawl, rising inference costs, and limited visibility into what those investments are actually returning.It’s the “Day 2” moment — when pilots give way to production, and cost, governance, and sustainability become harder than building the system in the first place."We've seen customers who say, 'I have 50,000 licenses of Copilot.

The journey from a laboratory hypothesis to a pharmacy shelf is one of the most grueling marathons in modern industry, typically spanning 10 to 15 years and billions of dollars in investment. Progress is often stymied not just by the inherent mysteries of biology, but by the "fragmented and difficult to scale" workflows that force researchers to manually pivot between the actual experimental design equipment, software, and databases.But OpenAI is releasing a new specialized model GPT-Rosalind specifically to speed up this process and make it more efficient, easier, and ideally, more productive.

Presented by Retool The logic used to be: buying software is cheaper, faster, and safer for most use cases. Building was reserved for companies with large engineering teams, deep pockets, and problems so specific that no vendor could address them.

Microsoft assigned CVE-2026-21520, a CVSS 7.5 indirect prompt injection vulnerability, to Copilot Studio. Capsule Security discovered the flaw, coordinated disclosure with Microsoft, and the patch was deployed on January 15. Public disclosure went live on Wednesday.That CVE matters less for what it fixes and more for what it signals. Capsule’s research calls Microsoft’s decision to assign a CVE to a prompt injection vulnerability in an agentic platform “highly unusual.” Microsoft previously assigned CVE-2025-32711 (CVSS 9.3) to EchoLeak, a prompt injection in M365 Copilot patched in June 2025, but that targeted a productivity assistant, not an agent-building platform.

AI agents are now embedded in real enterprise workflows, and they're still failing roughly one in three attempts on structured benchmarks. That gap between capability and reliability is the defining operational challenge for IT leaders in 2026, according to Stanford HAI's ninth annual AI Index report.This uneven, unpredictable performance is what the AI Index calls the "jagged frontier," a term coined by AI researcher Ethan Mollick to describe the boundary where AI excels and then suddenly fails.“AI models can win a gold medal at the International Mathematical Olympiad,” Stanford HAI researchers point out, “but still can’t reliably tell time.” How models advanced in 2025Enterprise AI adopti…

Creating self-improving AI systems is an important step toward deploying agents in dynamic environments, especially in enterprise production environments, where tasks are not always predictable, nor consistent. Current self-improving AI systems face severe limitations because they rely on fixed, handcrafted improvement mechanisms that only work under strict conditions such as software engineering.To overcome this practical challenge, researchers at Meta and several universities introduced “hyperagents,” a self-improving AI system that continuously rewrites and optimizes its problem-solving logic and the underlying code. In practice, this allows the AI to self-improve across non-coding domai…

The transition from AI as a chatbot to AI as a workforce is no longer a theoretical projection; it has become the primary design philosophy for the modern developer's toolkit. On April 14, 2026, Anthropic signaled this shift with a dual release: a complete redesign of the Claude Code desktop app (for Mac and Windows) and the launch of "Routines" in research preview. These updates suggest that for the modern enterprise, the developer's role is shifting from a solo practitioner to a high-level orchestrator managing multiple, simultaneous streams of work.For years, the industry focused on "copilots"—single-threaded assistants that lived within the IDE and responded to the immediate line of cod…

The feature, released as a research preview, means Codex can now understand your recent activity without you having to explain it.

Chronicle is part of a broader update that transformed Codex from a coding assistant into a general-purpose AI workspace.

Over one million developers have used Codex, and usage doubled following the launch of the GPT-5.2-Codex model in December.

Chronicle takes the opposite approach: processing happens in the cloud, but only text summaries are retained locally.

Privacy-first alternatives like Proton’s AI tools demonstrate that useful AI can run on open-source models locally without sending user data to anyone’s servers.

A supposed Tim Cook retirement leak late last year indicated that hardware head John Ternus was Apple’s planned successor and that the announcement would be made ahead of WWDC 2026 in June.

Under Cook, Apple’s market cap grew from $350 billion to $4 trillion, more than 1,000% increase; meanwhile revenue quadrupled, from $108 billion in 2011 to $416 billion in 2025.

Just the Services division now generates more than a quarter of the revenue of the entire company when Cook picked up the reins.

It’s possible that Cook could take an interim role as chairman or advisor to the board as a way of further reassuring investors.

In this episode of Apple @ Work, Duncan Barrigan from Lunos joins the show to talk about how AI agents will impact the finance department.

Starting September 1, hardware SVP John Ternus will take over as the new Apple CEO – with Tim Cook becoming executive chairman.

Tim Cook, for the most part, has taken a hands-off approach to specific product decisions.

The report also details that Apple picked John Ternus because they believed he’ll “reinvent” Apple’s product lineup and keep a “sharper focus” on products.

MacBook Neo was likely the first true sign of this, with the report remarking that John Ternus urged the company to make it.

What do you think about John Ternus serving as Apple CEO?

The U.S. Department of Justice has filed a response criticizing Apple’s recent request to obtain evidence from Samsung in South Korea in the ongoing antitrust case.

A bit of backgroundA few days ago, Apple filed a request for documents from Samsung Electronics in South Korea as part of its defense against the DOJ in the ongoing antitrust fight over alleged monopoly practices.

Apple’s request relies on the Hague Evidence Convention, which provides a mechanism for courts to obtain evidence from foreign entities in civil or commercial cases.

If the U.S. court grants Apple’s request, South Korean authorities would still need to decide whether to execute it.

Apple and Google have been notified by Brazil’s Ministry of Justice and Public Safety over the availability of betting apps to minors on their app stores.

Last week, the platform came under scrutiny after reports highlighted the availability of “nudifying” apps, as well as a fake crypto wallet that allegedly stole more than $10 million.

In each case, Apple moved to remove the offending apps.

It is also worth noting that Apple recently expanded App Store age assurance tools to several regions, including Brazil.

Also specific to the country, any app that has declared it contains loot boxes in its age rating questionnaire will be automatically updated to 18+.

Apple confirmed today that although Tim Cook will be leaving the role of Apple CEO come September, he’ll still be involved in a key area of the company.

Today, Apple answered part of this question, announcing that under his new role as executive chairman, Cook will remain involved in the company’s global policy engagement:As executive chairman, Cook will assist with certain aspects of the company, including engaging with policymakers around the world.

Although widely expected, the news reinforces Cook’s outsized influence in government relations, particularly with the U.S. and China.

И разрыв между этими продуктами не сокращается, а субьективно наоборот - растет www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-03-19/openai-to-acquire-python-startup-astral-expanding-push-into-coding

Конференция NVIDIA GTC раньше была про игры. А сейчас все больше про NVIDIA и их значение для мира ИИ, так что вот тут можно будет смотреть https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jw_o0xr8MWU

Вечный источник сливов, the Information пишут, что OpenAI готовится выпустить GPT-5.4, который получит «экстремальный» режим рассуждений и контекстное окно объёмом 1 млн токенов вместо 400 тыс. в GPT-5.2. Честно говоря, эта гонка сейчас перестала так впечатлять как раньше. Ждем какого-то прорыва, чтобы снова отличать модели друг от друга.🔗 https://www.theinformation.com/articles/openais-next-ai-model-will-extreme-reasoning

Ну и да, в MacBook Neo два порта USB‑C с разными характеристиками: один — USB 3.0 (Type‑C) со скоростью передачи до 10 Гбит/с, другой — USB 2.0 (Type‑C), ограниченный 480 Мбит/с.Интересно, что внешней маркировки я на них не увидел, видимо, "должны знать" :)🔗 https://www.macrumors.com/2026/03/04/macbook-neo-features-two-different-usb-ports/

Первые впечатления от MacBook Neo — новый самый младший ноутбук от Apple. Он вообще не кажется бюджетным: яркий дисплей и алюминиевый корпус, но клавиатура немного хлипкая, что предсказуемо было.Теперь я не очень понимаю, в чем его отличие от айпада. Видимо, выбор между "встроенная клавиатура" и "тач экран". Ну, рано или поздно они должны будут сойтись.https://www.engadget.com/computing/laptops/macbook-neo-hands-on-apples-599-laptop-feels-shockingly-great-142313318.html

Сразу две новости рядом: Eight Sleep, продающая умные аксессуары для матрасов, которые отслеживают режим сна и регулируют температуру, привлекла $50 млн при оценке в $1,5 млрд, тогда как в 2021 году её оценка составляла $500 млн. И это для меня удивительно - все тесты показали что их матрасы прямо никуда не годятся по точности отслеживания. Идея регуляции температуры во время сна все еще привлекательна, жаль что их не возят в разные страны.В это же время Whoop, производящая фитнес‑браслеты без экранов, сообщает, что планирует увеличить численность персонала максимум на 75% в 2026 году, создав более 600 должностей в преддверии вероятного IPO. Обычно перед IPO численость команды сокращают - в…

Polymarket удаляет долго существовавшие рынки, позволявшие пользователям делать ставки на вероятность ядерного взрыва на фоне ударов по Ирану. В прошлом году совокупный обьем ставок на эти события был $1,7 млн, что не так уж и мало. В этом году, как вы понимаете, интерес существенно бОльший.Я не понимаю, чем людям помешали эти ставки, единственная идея — сейчас сильно больше шансы на "манипуляцию", т.е. ради высокой выплаты можно попытаться что-нибудь взорвать.🔗 https://www.coindesk.com/markets/2026/03/04/polymarket-shelves-nuclear-detonation-markets-after-outcry

Anthropic сообщает, что голосовой режим для Claude Code теперь доступен примерно для 5% пользователей, а более широкое развёртывание запланировано на ближайшие недели.Проверить просто, жмите /voice — как и раньше, у меня ни в одном из трех аккаунтов пока нет 🔗 https://techcrunch.com/2026/03/03/claude-code-rolls-out-a-voice-mode-capability/

Тут происходит небольшая революция — появился репозиторий, в котором, как утверждается, научились заниматься обучением нейронок на чипах Apple Neural Engine напрямую. Сейчас ANE используются для запуска готовых моделей в основном, автор утверждает, что разобрал приватные API эппла, и теперь всё можно учить прямо на устройстве, не покупая себе очередной A100. В реальности, скорее всего, пользоваться этим будет нельзя, пока эппл явно не разрешит. Но фактически то, что автор репозитория показал, означает, что по сути нас ограничивает только софт, ограничения на уровне железа практически не существует. Хайпа, правда, многовато, т.к. устройства с ANE конечно не рассчитаны на ту огромную и долгов…

Apple показали MacBook Pro с M5 Pro и M5 Max, в 4 раза более быстрая работа с локальными LLM, в 2 раза более высокая скорость SSD и базовый объем 1 ТБ или 2 ТБ по цене от 2199 долларов.Кажется, вот теперь я могу и обновиться, но пока не придумал зачем. https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2026/03/apple-introduces-macbook-pro-with-all-new-m5-pro-and-m5-max/

После дополнительных приседаний, Минобороны (минвойны) США подтвердили, что их контракт с OpenAI не будет использован против своих, т.е. у NSA не будет доступа.Свежо предание, да.https://www.cnbc.com/2026/03/03/openai-sam-altman-pentagon-deal-amended-surveillance-limits.html

ByteDance показали «Project Swan», который выйдет в этом году. Это новый VR шлем с микродисплеем OLED с разрешением 4000 PPI, и новой же Pico OS 6. Я честно говоря пока не понимаю, есть ли смысл за этой эволюцией. Нужна какая-то революция чтобы VR стал общим для всех. Видимо надо ждать Apple/Google/Facebook или еще кого-то чтобы увидеть новое поколение https://www.uploadvr.com/pico-project-swan-official-display-compute-specs-announcement/

Финансирование Anthropic в размере более 60 миллиардов долларов, половина которого поступила всего в прошлом месяце от более чем 200 инвесторов, теперь находится под угрозой из-за контрактного спора компании с Пентагоном.Так пишет Axios, но мне что-то кажется, что зря они переживают. Даже за пределами госзаказов есть триллионы долларов ежегодно.https://www.axios.com/2026/03/02/anthropic-ai-openai-trump

Российские сервисы могут блокировать зарубежный трафик из-за VPN — «Коммерсантъ»Туристы за границей жалуются на недоступность банковских приложений, маркетплейсов и «Госуслуг». Есть проблемы даже с сервисами бронирования билетов.Как предполагают источники издания, из-за новых требований Минцифры компании перестраховываются и блокируют подключения с иностранных IP-адресов, опасаясь лишиться IT-аккредитации.Проблема в основном касается тех, кто подключается через местный Wi-Fi или сотовую сеть в Турции, Египте и Азии.

Широкий Huawei идёт пришёлКроме Pura 90, Huawei представила в Китае и второе поколение своей широкой «раскладушки» — Pura X Max. Смартфон сильно изменился внешне, стал больше и... дороже.Внутри дисплей теперь на 7,7", а снаружи — на 5,4". В прошлогоднем Pura X второй экран намного меньше. Так как внешний экран стал больше, его и блок камер разместили на разных панелях. Камеры тоже обновили — всего сзади их три штуки.Цены стартуют от 10 999 юаней (~121 500 рублей) за версию на 12+256 ГБ.Подробнее: rozetked.me/news/45632
