Квартальные продажи электромобилей по всему миру превысили 5 млн единиц.

Акции компании на премаркете упали на 9%.

Это новые меры поддержки на фоне ударов беспилотников по складам маркетплейса.

Его получают сервисы, которыми в Евросоюзе ежемесячно пользуются более 45 млн человек.

Против 359 млн рублей во втором квартале 2025 года.

И хранить данные об аккаунтах три года.

И работает все это довольно неплохо.

Ключи можно (и нужно) не светить в командной строке, а вынести в переменные окружения FT_S3_ACCESS_KEY / FT_S3_SECRET_KEY.

Идея в лоб: оба конца туннеля логинятся в один и тот же IMAP-аккаунт на почтовом сервере (или на нескольких для распараллеливания), и используют по две выделенные папки на каждый - в одну сторону и в другую.

А еще это все дело можно запустить как плагин Shadowsocks (SIP003), например под Shadowsocks Android, так что пользоваться можно и с телефона.

Да и CDN в мире и в стране существует не то чтобы прям много разных.

Корпус на пломбах — пусть будет капсулой времени, работает, ну и не трогай, это не блок питания.

Итак, компьютер был не мёртв, но и не жив; как его использовать с таким объёмом ОЗУ — вариантов было мало.

Инфраструктурная боль здесь даже не в миграции, а в жесткой привязке инструментов к конкретному провайдеру.

При этом контекстное окно сознательно сократили до 500 000 токенов, сделав ставку на точность исполнения шагов и удельное качество вычислений, а не на максимальный объем входящего текста.

Смотря на всю ситуацию на рынке, я подумал: хм, вот джуны притворяются мидлами и сеньорами и ходят по собесам.

Как вы видите - проблема не в вас, а в системе.

IT - очень прибыльная сфера, и не только от работы, но и от скамов.

Некоторые электроны проходят сквозь витки этой сетки и в пространстве между анодом и цилиндром коллектора ионизируют молекулы оставшегося газа.

Например, ресурс ПМИ-2 при давлении в системе 10-5 Торр — 750 часов; 10-4 Торр — 75 часов; 10-3 Торр — 7.5 часов.

Отсюда — следует всемерно беречь работающую лампу от «прорыва атмосферы» (контакта с атмосферой «на ходу»), что и для остальной высоковакуумной части оборудования сродни аварии.

Объём, заключённый внутри сетки‑анода усовершенствованного прибора, остаётся примерно таким же, как и в старой конструкции — количество ионизированного газа не изменилось.

Также формально к ионизационным можно отнести и простейшие разрядные трубки, и сверхвысоков…

Заранее прикинул, что ответишь на «а в какой момент вы поняли, что это выстрелит», будешь говорить скромно, но с достоинством.

Поэтому не считай себя каким‑то неправильным только потому что у них так, а у тебя не так.

Я знаю одного бизнесмена, который не может выйти из роли бизнесмена, потому что забыл, что это роль.

Бывает что нет доверия лично к тебе как к профессионалу — потому что да что ты вообще умеешь.

Чаще тебе нужно просто свидетельство что ты нормальный и что у других так же.

Вот я и здесь.

Установка размеров элементаЯ думаю, что свойство box-sizing в вашей кодовой базе появляется одним из первых.

Для этого я создам разметку, в которой будет элемент с классом .awesome-container , содержащий пять элементов с классом .awesome-child .

Если он есть, то элемент с объявленным свойством float прижмётся к нему.

Как видите, суть этого метода заключается в том, что с помощью свойства background-repeat и значения x картинка из свойства background-image повторяется по всей ширине элемента.

У настоящего суждения всегда есть неудобные детали, которые не укладываются в красивую историю, и в живом разговоре они всплывают сами.

И это не эксклюзив разработки.

Мне очень интересен ваш опыт: как изменились собеседования и требования у вас, и с какой стороны стола вы это почувствовали?

Меня зовут Алексей, я радиоинженер, работаю в дивизионе Телеком в YADRO и руковожу кафедрой «Радиофизика, антенны и микроволновая техника» в МАИ.

Очевидно, что в маленьком поселке, около скоростного шоссе и в городе требования будут сильно отличаться.

Процесс разработки завершится, когда заявленные характеристики будут подтверждены натурными испытаниями (в лаборатории и «в полях») и антенна отправится на производство.

А вот в системах последних поколений чаще применяются активные антенные решетки — когда радиомодули и антенны интегрированы в единую конструкцию.

Более того: лучами в Single‑User MIMO, и в Multi‑User MIMO можно управлять, отслеживая местоположение абонента.

Я изучил рабочую модель, в которой агенты, привлечённые обещаниями лёгкого заработка, добровольно превращают свои аккаунты Avito в фишинговые площадки.

Крохотулечный аккумулятор толщиной 6,86 мм весит всего 104 грамма и выдаёт скорость зарядки до 45 Вт через USB-C и до 25 Вт по беспроводу.

Зарядить аккумулятор iPhone 17 Pro Max до 100 % таким не получится: из-за потерь беспроводной зарядки из заявленных 5000 мА·ч до вашего смартфона добежит в лучшем случае 2700−3000 мА·ч.

CipherX — это небольшая компания, которая, по её же словам, создала «первый в мире аппликатор безболезненного нанесения тату».

Работает он следующим образом: небольшой пластырь-трафарет наклеивается на кожу, затем устройство вводит в верхние слои кожи растворимые микроиглы с пигментом.

Тату проявляется через пару дней, а уход требует только поддержания чистоты и воздержания от сауны и тренировок на это время.

Создатели в целом отмечают, что это лишь альтернатива для тех, кто хочет сделать символическое тату без боли.

Классический метод никто заменять не собирается, а значит, рукав придётся вытерпеть.

В третий пакет мер против кибермошенничества ведомство предложило ввести регистрацию на зарубежных сервисах исключительно по номеру, — сообщают «Ведомости».

Владельцы этих ресурсов будут обязаны хранить информацию о регистрации, авторизации и удалении учёток в течение трёх лет.

По словам Минцифры, эта информация нужна в случае оперативно-разыскной деятельности.

Операторы связи считают, что привычная SMS-аутентификация, к которой уже все привыкли, не нуждается в замене.

Собеседники «Ведомостей» отметили, что международным компаниям будет невыгодно создавать отдельную базу только под россиян, а изменение порядка регистрации может привести к потере пользователей.

Предприятие Samsung Device eXperience, отвечающее за производство смартфонов Galaxy, отчиталось о падении продаж на 9 % по сравнению с аналогичным периодом прошлого года.

На колени компанию поставили вовсе не низкие продажи Galaxy S26 Ultra и не Galaxy Z Fold 8 — с ними всё в полном порядке, а сверхбюджетная A-линейка смартфонов Galaxy.

Но из-за катастрофического роста цен на память оказались убыточными, и эффект масштаба сработал уже против Samsung.

Австралийский регулятор eSafety подал в суд на мессенджер за медленную систему обнаружения и удаления запрещённого контента.

Это грозит Telegram штрафом в 55 млн австралийских долларов (≈ 3 млрд рублей).

Ведомство утверждает, что администрация приложения не удалила множественные видео нападения на мечеть в Крайстчерче в 2019 году, а также массовой стрельбы в американском Буффало в 2022 году, которая транслировалась на Twitch.

По данным eSafety, записи не были удалены даже после множества жалоб от пользователей.

По словам главы Qualcomm, из-за подорожания смартфонов на фоне кризиса памяти пользователи потеряли интерес к премиальному сегменту: часть покупателей Android начала перетекать в сегмент доступных среднебюджетных моделей, а самые стойкие принялись закупать флагманы предыдущих лет.

Коллекционер и собиратель ретроконсолей Орочи отправился «на разведку» в место для свиданий и обнаружил там приставку, которую никогда не продавали обычным пользователям.

Принцип игры как в аркадных автоматах: либо платим за наигранное время, либо кидаем монетки, чтобы это время продлить.

Учитывая назначение лав-отелей, Орочи, вероятно, оказался первым, кто вообще обратил на это внимание.

Название отеля исследователь оставил в тайне, чтобы не привлекать к консолям лишнее внимание.

Астроном-любитель Жоэль Лапуант увидел в Google Maps 25-километровое горное кольцо вокруг озера Марсал, пока готовился к походу при помощи сервиса.

Компания Google опубликовала релиз web-браузера Chrome 151. Одновременно доступен стабильный выпуск свободного проекта Chromium, выступающего основой Chrome. Браузер Chrome отличается от Chromium использованием логотипов Google, наличием системы отправки уведомлений в случае краха, модулями для воспроизведения защищённого от копирования видеоконтента (DRM), системой автоматической установки обновлений, постоянным включением Sandbox-изоляции, поставкой ключей к Google API и передачей RLZ-параметров при поиске. Для тех, кому необходимо больше времени на обновление, отдельно поддерживается ветка Extended Stable, сопровождаемая 8 недель. Следующий выпуск Chrome 152 запланирован на 25 августа.

Доступен выпуск инструментария smolvm 1.7, позволяющего изолировать выполнение Linux-приложений в отдельных быстрозапускаемых виртуальных машинах. Smolvm даёт возможность упаковать приложение в образ виртуальной машины "smolmachine" или самодостаточный исполняемый файл, включающей все необходимые зависимости, который затем можно запускать на любых хостах с той же архитектурой CPU. Упакованные подобным образом приложения выполняются в отдельной виртуальной машине со своим ядром. При запуске в Linux используется гипервизора KVM, в macOS - Hypervisor.framework, а в Windows - Windows Hypervisor Platform. Код проекта написан на языке Rust и распространяется под лицензией Apache 2.0.

После объявления о переводе JavaScript-платформы Bun на язык Rust при помощи AI и задействования Rust в кодовой базе, на основе которой формируется ветка Bun 1.4, несколько энтузиастов объявили о создании форков платформы, продолжающих развитие с использованием языка Zig.

Проект Debian объявил о проведении общего голосования (GR, general resolution) разработчиков по вопросу использования больших языковых моделей и AI-инструментов в процессе разработки дистрибутива. Право голоса имеют около тысячи разработчиков, участвующих в сопровождении пакетов и поддержании инфраструктуры Debian. Рассматриваемый вопрос охватывает только применение AI в Debian (работа над пакетами, разрабатываемыми в Debian проектами, web-ресурсами, переводами, документацией и сообщениями в официальной переписке) и не затрагивает использующие AI upstream-проекты, поставку связанных с AI пакетов и принятие патчей, созданных в upstream-проектах при помощи AI.

Here’s a picture of a poodle sitting in a chair for your trouble.

The Religion of Speed29 May, 2026At some point, “moving fast” stopped being a practical concern and became a moral position.

If you’re moving fast, you’re ambitious.

This is how a lot of bad work gets protected.

The original rushed work gets recorded as “fast.” The cleanup gets recorded as “unexpected.” The rework gets recorded as “iteration.” The confusion gets recorded as “alignment.” The preventable failure gets recorded as “learning.”This is how organizations end up with systems nobody trusts, processes nobody understands, meetings nobody wants, dashboards nobody believes, and workarounds that become load-bearing pieces of the business.

You can move fast for a while by skipping thought,…

Many of them disappear as fads change, but others bake themselves into deeper parts of existing software interaction paradigms.

Then there are other patterns that’ve been refined by AI interfaces and are starting to spread to other places in software.

For example, a lot of AI apps use tiny icons.

Take a look at this screenshot, where you have desktop AI apps on the left (Claude, Codex, Cursor) and macOS apps from Apple on the right (Finder, Photos, Mail).

You can see how the AI apps all have much smaller, thinner icons than their native counterparts.

In all three incidents, Claude had been tasked with a capture-the-flag challenge, one of the ways we assess a model’s cyber capabilities.

Due to a misunderstanding between us and our evaluation partner, this was not the case, and internet access was available.

The incidents involved three different Claude models: Opus 4.7, Mythos 5, and an internal research test model.1 The earliest incidents date to April.

Background on cyber evaluationsWe regularly run cybersecurity evaluations that involve simulating real offensive cybersecurity challenges.

Our models were told they had no internet access and to capture the flag, while in fact being misconfigured to have internet access.

After OpenAI's models broke into Hugging Face, Anthropic checked its own history and found three similar incidents

Apple is worried enough about supply shortages that it reported about $11.1 billion in inventory, which is almost double the $5.7 billion it reported last September.

The former OpenAI researcher’s fund was forced to unwind public equities after leveraged public bets plummeted. But he still has cards to play.

Reddit's financial situation is looking good but uncertainty about its relationship to Google and the new AI-ified web are stirring market concerns.

Amazon isn't slowing down on data center spending — but investors don't seem to mind.

Apple said a slowdown in mobile gaming and changes to the App Store’s business model — including court-ordered payment rule changes in the U.S. — weighed on its services business, even as the company topped 1.5 billion paid subscriptions.

A federal judge said the Trump administration has not presented enough evidence to justify labeling Anthropic a supply chain risk, casting doubt on the government's ban on its AI technology.

The health tech data giant, which handles vast amounts of patients' medical data, said hackers struck one of its protected health data stores.

Friend, the AI wearable, can now talk to its users — for an enhanced price.

As experts have warned for the last two years, some companies — like Microsoft and now Google — are finding and patching an exponential number of bugs in their products, thanks to the use of LLMs and AI tools.

Florida wants to use federal EV charger funds to build an air taxi network connecting golf courses, luxury apartment buildings, and airports.

LinkedIn is introducing new ways to reduce low-quality AI-generated posts, including a “seems like AI slop” reporting option. It's also replacing its own AI writing feature with a proofreading tool.

Unfortunately, today’s quantum computers either can’t run those algorithms or can only run simplified versions that classical computers can also handle.

This has left the field facing a challenging question: Can we demonstrate the promise of quantum computers on today’s noisy, limited hardware?

And given that today’s quantum computers are somewhat error-prone, getting the wrong result is a distinct possibility.

On Thursday, the company announced three new entries that it says clearly show a quantum advantage, each using a different approach to overcoming errors and validating quantum results.

Trust, but verifyAt this point, there have been many claims of quantum advantage, and at least one …

The hope is that the changes, detailed in the protocol’s documentation, will make widespread deployment in an enterprise context much easier.

MCP started as something that simply ran on a local machine, connecting models to local apps, so the new spec is a major rethink of some of its foundations.

This is again in keeping with the general “let’s make this work better at enterprise scale” theme of the new specification.

MCP was originally introduced by Anthropic, just shy of two years ago, and Anthropic still has significant influence over its direction.

The buck technically stops with individual maintainers, not any of these companies themselves, but as noted above, some of the principal ma…

The algorithm taken out of commission is known as HAWK.

HAWK was in a third round of testing designed to catch precisely the kinds of flaws Mythos helped uncover.

Even before the development, Anthropic was hailing the results of the two cryptographic problems it threw at its Mythos AI security model.

Second, the cryptosystems tested were weakened versions of the ones defined in their formal specifications.

It’s standard to use the weakened versions in testing, but the real ones are considerably more robust in production settings.

Elon Musk has settled his lawsuit with advertisers that he once claimed should be criminally prosecuted for refusing to advertise on his social media platform, X.

A lot has changed since Musk filed the lawsuit.

Most relevant to the lawsuit, GARM was quickly disbanded after Musk called out the small not-for-profit initiative for setting brand standards that X said led advertisers to steer clear of X.

The point of the initiative was “to help the industry address the challenge of illegal or harmful content on digital media platforms and its monetization via advertising,” a now-shuttered website said.

But Musk claimed GARM was instead trying to monopolize which content gets monetized online, an…

Humanoid robots and four-legged robots made in China fall squarely under a new ban imposed by the US Federal Communications Commission on foreign-made robots.

But the sweeping prohibition covers a wide variety of robots manufactured anywhere abroad, including the newest robot vacuum cleaners.

The Trump administration’s FCC justified the ban on foreign-made robots by referencing cybersecurity vulnerabilities previously discovered in robots specifically made by Chinese companies.

So what foreign-made robots are prohibited?

The ban defines “advanced robotic devices” as being “a mechanical mobile device, including autonomous mobile robots, humanoid robots, and quadrupeds” that can move around o…

Governments around the world are suddenly very keen on online age verification requirements.

The idea is that parents will set age ranges for their kids’ managed accounts.

So a kid who’s 13 may be in the same app content bracket for a few years before hitting the next level.

Google began testing the Play Age Signals API late last year as it became apparent that multiple states were going to put the onus of age verification on app stores.

Louisiana and Utah also have similar laws going into effect.

Elon Musk’s xAI is trying to sue its way out of a Grok reckoning as arrests of Grok users accused of making child sex abuse materials (CSAM) have triggered lawsuits from kids to sue xAI to force changes to the tool to block harmful outputs.

According to xAI, suing a Grok user is proof that xAI is already doing everything in its power to punish bad actors, and therefore, Grok deserves safe harbor from Minnesota’s ban.

As xAI explained, that adds up quickly, considering that some Grok users are accused of making thousands of images of single victims.

Most recently, xAI was sued last week after tipping off cops to a well-known Arkansas child photographer who allegedly used Grok to sexualize im…

If you follow quantum computing news for long enough, it can start to seem like any quantum system that can alternate between two well-separated energy states can be used as a qubit.

One of those technologies involves quantum dots that hold a single electron.

This week saw two new papers describing different ways of using quantum dots, one of which was appealing enough that IBM bought the company that developed it.

HRL is using manufactured quantum dots, a distinct technology from the dots used in displays, although it relies on some of the same physics principles.

Both approaches use a structure that traps electrons in a region smaller than the electron’s wavelength.

When we last checked in on Boeing’s Starliner spacecraft in February, NASA was announcing that it had formally classified the 2024 crewed flight of the Starliner spacecraft as a “Type A” mishap, an acknowledgement that the test flight was a serious failure.

At the time, NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman said the space agency was working with Boeing to “fully understand the risks associated” with the Starliner spacecraft, and to remediate them.

Starliner would not fly its next mission, a cargo flight to the International Space Station, until those problems were identified and remediated.

He declined to put a date on the test flight.

“The redesign of the Starliner deficiencies is going quite …

On an afternoon in mid-May, dozens of Microsoft engineers and their managers gathered online and in a conference room at the company’s Redmond, Washington, headquarters to discuss Project Glasswing.

The tech giant was racing to fix weaknesses in its code that a new AI model known as Mythos was uncovering at an unprecedented clip.

The AI behemoth Anthropic, which developed Mythos, had given access to select organizations that make software used by regular people, companies, and governments across the world.

The version being used by Microsoft, Claude Mythos Preview, was surfacing bugs faster than the tech giant could patch them, and engineers, the manager said, were now in “a mad dash” to cl…

A new patch for AMD’s Linux drivers could substantially reduce low-end frame hitches when the Steam Deck or other AMD-based gaming hardware is running in Energy Performance Preference (EPP) mode.

Writing on the Linux kernel mailing list (thanks, Phoronix), kernel coder David Vernet lays out the basic problem that games often face in EPP mode.

When a busy thread frequently goes to sleep for short periods, the current AMD driver can misinterpret that behavior as a signal to lower its average performance target.

Shifting the processor to “performance” mode fixes this problem but eliminates the energy savings that EPP mode is supposed to provide.

And simply boosting the affected thread’s minimu…

You’d think all the trailers for upcoming major films would have been released during San Diego Comic-Con last weekend.

But Sony Pictures decided to wait until today to drop the trailer for Jumanji: Open World, director Jake Kasdan’s sequel to his 2019 hit, Jumanji: The Next Level.

The original Jumanji film, released in 1995 and starring the late Robin Williams, was based on a 1981 children’s book by Chris Van Allsburg.

Kasdan gave the franchise a welcome major overhaul with the release of 2017’s Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, updating the original board game into a vintage video game and giving us a hugely entertaining action-adventure.

The result: a herd of ostriches suddenly shows up ou…

Linear A, the writing system of the Bronze Age Minoan civilization on the Greek island of Crete, has neither.

Linear A is described as a “language isolate” because it has no confirmed link to any known language, living or dead.

Etruscan, a language of Italy that was used before the rise of the Roman Empire, has fared only slightly better.

Both languages are exactly the kind of puzzle that AI has recently been pulled into—not by replacing the linguists, but by supercharging their hunches.

In June 2026, a self-taught AI engineer and amateur linguist claimed a breakthrough on Linear A.

You can add Reddit CEO Steve Huffman to the growling list of publishers, platforms and others who are frustrated with the state of Google search and AI Overviews.

"People don't want a summary of Reddit; they want Reddit," he wrote in a letter to shareholders ahead of the company's second-quarter earnings call.

The CEO said that AI Overviews haven't had "a similar level of positive impact" as traditional search.

"From where we sit, AI Overviews has yet to make a similar level of positive impact, and I think that's consistent across the broader landscape, right?

Reddit hasn't publicly indicated whether it will renew or seek to change the terms of its existing arrangement with Google.

"User Notes" offer listeners a place to add their thoughts about each song in playlists they have curated.

Or, if you were making a playlist to share with someone, you could essentially write them digital liner notes.

User notes are available in Spotify to listeners at least 16 years old on both paid and free plans, although it's only in select markets.

Spotify user notes appear to anyone who can view a playlist, so you might want to double-check your settings before sharing with mom.

The captions can be reached from the three-dot menu by a track listing under the "Add note" option.

Friend, the startup and AI pendant better known for its controversial ad campaign than being a usable product, is back.

The company has announced a new version of its AI wearable that costs $249, still features an always-on microphone and now includes a built-in speaker so it can verbally respond to your questions.

If it sounds strange or awkward to have an intimate conversation with an AI, that's because it often is, as exemplified by Friend's own launch video.

Doubling down on the AI pendant now could be an attempt to drum up more.

An AI pendant for nearly double the price and a monthly fee seems like a hard sell, but an AI friend that forgets you every 30 days might be worse.

Does a watch or a ring make more sense for you?

Casio has been selling ring watches for a while, including an adorable G-Shock model, and they're a very clever idea for accessories fans.

The smart ring watch will also count steps and estimate calorie burn.

Sonos will be making new product announcements in September.

He argued that the battles over the best and fastest model won't be the defining factor for success when it comes to AI in the smart home.

"That's the operating environment for AI in the home, and Sonos has spent 20 years building it."

Lately however, Sonos hasn't been doing too much on the product side while it continues to recover from a disastrous app redesign in 2024 that saw steep cuts to staff and executive leadership.

Trying to immediately tackle AI-powered smart home audio could be a make or break moment for the company.

The case against buying a TP-Link router in the US isn't based on taking the FCC's claims at face value.

First, banning sales of new router models does little to address the much larger base of models approved for sale or those already sitting in Americans' homes.

Plus, router security problems are hardly unique to TP-Link or to any single country's supply chain.

There's another problem: a fully American-made consumer Wi-Fi router doesn't exist.

The FCC even undercut its argument when it later allowed affected companies (including TP-Link) to keep pushing critical security updates through 2029.

You now have another way to play the remastered version of classic PSP puzzle game Lumines while you're on the go (or on your couch).

Lumines Remastered just landed on iOS and Android phones and tablets.

Enhance released a new Lumines game last fall.

Blass's images show multiple different angles of the Pixel 11 Pro Fold, all in what previous rumors have suggested is its new "Pine" (green) color.

That lines up with leaked dimensions for the Pixel 11 Pro Fold, which is rumored to have a 6.3-inch outer display and an 8-inch inner display.

Just like recent Google ads and a splash image on the company's online store, the Pixel 11 Pro Fold's camera features a glowing, multicolored light on its camera bar.

That certainly seems to match the glowing orb on the back of this Pixel 11 Pro Fold.

In the case of the Pixel 11 Pro Fold, that could mean as much as a $100 (€100) price hike.

Google DeepMind just announced a new version of its artificial intelligence model Gemini that can control a range of robots.

The company released a video of the Gemini Robotics 2 platform in action and the results are fairly impressive.

The original Gemini Robotics system could already power bots that performed finicky actions like closing storage bags and folding origami, but that was done via robotic arms and hands.

This operates in stark contrast to Elon Musk's Optimus robots, as a high-profile demo was proven to have used teleoperators to control the bots.

He once stated we'd have 50,000 to 100,000 Optimus robots by 2026 and 1,000 of the little bots roaming around manufacturing faciliti…

A new report from the technology analyst group Omdia claims that global smartphone sales are down six percent year on year, falling to 272 million units in 2Q26.

Six percent doesn't sound like the most dramatic figure on paper, but Omdia's research shows worldwide smartphone shipments have been in steady decline since the end of 2025.

Low-end smartphone prices are projected to get the most serious price hikes in the coming months.

At the other end of the market, Samsung's 60.5 million units sold is a slight YoY increase that sees its overall market share grow to 22 percent.

Apple has also recorded its strongest-ever second quarter, shipping 55.1 million units (up 23 percent YoY) and growing…

On Thursday, Apple reported earnings showing a record June quarter across products and geographies.

But Apple executives are wary going forward and are warning that supply constraints might make landfall on its financials.

But soaring memory prices are also painting a concerning picture for both Apple and its consumers.

CEO Tim Cook said in the company’s earnings call that Apple is paying increasingly more for memory with each passing quarter.

Cook thinks Apple will be able to use that strategy in the September quarter, but benefits will decrease beyond that.

The Power Glove wrecks the brains of a generationTo the adolescent mind, the Power Glove was the ultimate flex.

Now, I’ve never even seen a Power Glove in person, much less used one, and this is probably for the best.

Nintendo, which only licensed the Power Glove and was not involved in its development, rushed it out the door to get it on the shelves for Christmas 1989.

The two games that did support the Power Glove sold terribly, and, seeing the writing on the wall, Nintendo pulled the Power Glove off the shelves after only a year.

What’s different now, though, is that all of the technologies required to make wearables work have caught up to the fiction of the past.

It seems the company isn’t just winning the moral argument on this front, but the legal one, too.

According to Axios, the judge hearing Anthropic’s challenge to the Trump administration’s designation has thus far not found the Pentagon’s case to be particularly compelling.

“I don’t see evidence that Anthropic could alter the model after it was delivered or flip some kind of kill switch,” she said, per Axios.

This doesn’t come as a major surprise, given Judge Lin’s general vibe since this case landed in her court.

Trump and company moved to label Anthropic a supply chain risk, a designation typically reserved for foreign adversaries, not domestic companies.

If you think that most of the posts you encounter on LinkedIn sound like the same corporate drone-generated slop, it’s because they are actually AI-generated.

To combat that, LinkedIn users are getting a dedicated slop button so they can help mop up the mess being spewed across the internet.

“LinkedIn posts made up a third of scanned items, yet it accounted for nearly two-thirds (62%) of all AI content we flagged,” Pangram said in a blog post from earlier this month.

People are increasingly relying on commercial AI detection tools to catch automation attempts, but these tools are not foolproof.

But humans are also lackluster at discerning AI slop.

That was memorably illustrated when a marketing campaign launched last year by a company called Friend attracted widespread mockery and vandalism.

Now Friend is back with a new and improved version of its AI pendant.

The new Friend pendant costs $249, almost twice as expensive as the original.

Friend is very much continuing to lean into that angle with its new AI pendant.

These too have a pretty depressing dreamlike quality and don’t exactly inspire the feeling that AI is going to be a mental health boon for humanity.

New research shows that implementing nationwide food recycling would have enormous climate benefits, but it would come with a troubling tradeoff.

“It’s literally everywhere.”The complexities of cutting food wasteThe EPA has set a goal to cut U.S. food waste in half—down to about 160 pounds (74 kilograms) per capita—by 2030.

The trouble is, the compost and digestates produced by a national food waste ban would contain a significant amount of microplastics.

Research has shown that plastic packaging contaminates food with micro- and nanoplastics through mechanical stress and heat.

What’s more, a lot of plastic packaging gets mixed in with food waste accidentally or through inadequate s…

“I messed up,” LemonLime co-founder Jordan Zietz wrote on X Thursday, addressing backlash after his AI startup offered job interviews to people who got tattooed at a company party.

LemonLime is a San Francisco startup founded this year that says it builds AI agents to automate businesses’ busywork.

The drama began on LinkedIn, where Zietz bragged that seven people had left a party at the LemonLime office with permanent tattoos.

“The job market cannot be this cooked that kids have to get permanent tattoos to get interviews,” wrote one X user.

I got carried away, and I was wrong,” wrote Zietz.

Musk has authorized his super PAC to spend as much as $120 million helping Republicans, according to a new report from the New York Times.

In May, it was reported Musk had already spent $85 million on this cycle, making him the third-largest donor for the midterms to that point.

Musk’s PAC fueled door-knocking initiatives in swing states during the 2024 election, helping Trump secure a victory over Kamala Harris.

The U.S. Senate race in Maine was thrown into chaos after Democrat Graham Platner was forced out over sexual assault allegations, which he denies.

But Musk proved you can do blatantly illegal shit if you’re rich enough and hedge with the right words.

Similarly, the late 1990s and early/mid-2000s were a strange, transitional era for both music and the technology used to play it.

Internet connections and speeds weren’t yet up to the challenge of streaming music, and in any case, the music industry was deep in the throes of hoping the whole internet thing would just go away.

Well, in 2017, a company called AudioValley bought a majority stake in Radionomy; in 2022, AudioValley was renamed TargetSpot; in 2023, TargetSpot was renamed Llama Group; and in 2025, Llama Group was renamed Winamp Group SA.

It’s hard to say whether Winamp ’26 might be that something because no one’s seen it in action yet.

Casio has dabbled with adding smart features to its iconic watch designs before, but the company is trying a new twist on that idea by making the follow-up to its viral ring watch a proper Oura Ring alternative.

The new Casio CRW-H001, as spotted by Notebookcheck, looks like the company’s earlier ring-sized watch but now includes sensors for tracking your health and a vibration motor for notifications.

The new ring, which is currently only available to order in China, features a working LCD screen that can display the time (and even act as a tiny stopwatch and alarm).

Because the ring does feature a wealth of smart features, some elements of its design are distinctly different from the orig…

Incredibly, the researchers extrapolate the approximately 400 confirmed sites to an estimated 20,000 to 30,000 earthwworks across the region.

Pärssinen and his colleagues believe these structures are evidence of an interconnected, multicultural civilization that thrived deep within the Amazon between 600 BCE and 850 CE—a population of millions who dramatically altered the rainforest’s ecosystem.

If correct, however, those calculations would imply that tens of millions of people inhabited rainforests once thought to be pristine wilderness.

Pärssinen and his coauthors, instead, found compelling evidence that the Aquiry left a profound mark on the Amazonian ecosystem.

“The civilization…

Nothing in Hollywood is ever certain, even when a project is announced by Disney-owned Marvel Studios (just ask Blade).

But it’s still a bummer to hear that Wonder Man, which was somewhat unexpectedly renewed for a second season on Disney+ back in March and just notched an Emmy nomination for star Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, has now been canceled.

The second season will not move forward.

This is disappointing for Wonder Man fans who were excited to see what trouble Simon Williams was going to get mixed up in next, something Abdul-Mateen had already started teasing.

As Variety notes, “according to an individual with knowledge of the situation, while Wonder Man is not proceeding with season two, t…

House of the Dragon likewise has plenty of people fans love to hate—and at the top of that list, until very recently, was the bitter, grudge-obsessed Ser Criston Cole.

Cole, played by Fabian Frankel, entered the story as an upstart tournament champion and was hand-picked by a teenage Rhaenyra to join King Viserys’ Kingsguard.

It’s hard to disassociate from the character sometimes when the fans have such an animosity toward Criston Cole,” Frankel said.

I’m glad people realize I’m not Criston.”And, for what it’s worth, Frankel genuinely enjoyed his time on House of the Dragon.

There’s no nihilism from the fanbase toward Criston Cole, that’s for sure.

Anthropic disclosed on Thursday that its AI models gained unauthorized access to the systems of three different unnamed organizations during cybersecurity testing.

The AI lab says it first identified 141,006 tests in which it determined that Claude could have obtained internet access.

It then found that three different Claude models accessed the internet in evaluations run by the third-party AI testing firm Irregular, and then hacked into the production infrastructure of three different organizations.

While Claude wasn’t supposed to have internet access, Anthropic said that Irregular had misconfigured the machines that it was using to test Claude, giving the AI models the ability to surf th…

This week, the US Federal Communications Commission banned the import of foreign-made advanced mobile robots.

Humanoid and quadruped robots are specifically named, indicating the true target is robotic versions of people and animals, but something else happens to be an “advanced mobile robot”: robot vacuums.

Robot vacuums won't get removed from the market, and your current robot vacuum won't stop working.

What the Ban CoversThe FCC updated its Covered List this week to include foreign-made advanced mobile robots, which include robot vacuums.

But foreign-made robot vacuums, along with similar robots like robotic pool cleaners and automated lawn mowers, look to be on the chopping block.

Since the US launched its war against Iran in late February, the country’s hackers have struck back with retaliatory intrusions that have ranged from paralyzing medical supplies company Stryker to breaching the personal email of FBI director Kash Patel.

Now, after an unprecedented wave of disruptive cyberattacks hit water utilities in Minnesota, a memo circulated within the water industry ties those attacks to Iran, too, in the widest and most disruptive strike yet inflicted by the country’s hackers against the US since the war began.

A communication obtained by WIRED on Thursday and sent to members of the Water Information Sharing and Analysis Center, or WaterISAC, an industry group for wa…

I was offline last week in my home state of New Jersey, but when I got back to Silicon Valley, everyone was panicking again about how quickly artificial intelligence is advancing.

While this is certainly not the first time I’ve seen such concerns, it’s the biggest anxiety attack I’ve seen in years.

Around the same time, top Trump administration officials started freaking out about an impressive new Chinese open weight AI model called Kimi K3, which was allegedly distilled from Anthropic’s Fable 5.

But I think they are evidence of a larger worldview taking hold in Silicon Valley, where many tech insiders are increasingly worried about OpenAI and Anthropic’s dominance.

Researchers and investo…

So, we'll see if that turns into anything probably if they're just listening to the last voice they hear.

You could go to Google and you can search, put in a specific search term to find shared Claude chats, and it would show them back to you.

But just to understand how this happened, basically Anthropic lets you share a Claude chat via what's known as a snapshot URL.

It's not intended for public indexing, but Google basically ignored instructions that Anthropic had put on its sites and it was indexing these chats anyway.

Google is blaming Anthropic saying that it's their fault, not theirs.

A trip to college—or even hard nights home for high school—might come with an expense you didn't think about: a good office chair.

Luckily, there are some decent back-to-school office chair deals right now, among chairs I can vouch for.

My colleagues at WIRED and I have been testing and tracking the best office chairs for more than seven years.

Here are the best affordable office chairs and back-to-school chair deals available for the 2026 school year.

WIRED’s Favorite Budget ChairStaples basically holds down the discount chair scene, and the Staples Dexley is the best ergonomic chair that can be consistently had below $200.

The company, Amazon subsidiary Zoox, says it will soon begin to charge for rides in Las Vegas, where it’s been carrying passengers for free since last year.

The company is also currently picking up a limited set of passengers in Austin, Miami, and San Francisco, all for free.

Waymo, the nation’s leading robotaxi provider, uses vehicles that meet government design standards—with steering wheels, pedals, and mirrors, and conventional seating arrangements.

But some industry players argue that driverless tech can only reach its potential with vehicles built to be driven by computers—ones that don’t meet federal vehicle safety standards written for older technology.

Google’s Chrome browser has always been focused on pushing security updates.

A decade ago it was controversial that the browser, the first to add automatic updates, distributed patches every six weeks.

In a report published Thursday, the Chrome security team says the browser's two major version releases in June included fixes for 1,072 security bugs—more patches than the team shipped in the prior 23 big releases combined.

Who knows.”Turner, like other security researchers, says he sees evidence that the AI vulnerability boom time (or apocalypse, depending on how you look at it) may not last forever.

This is partly because AI models can be trained to have an encyclopedic understanding of how…

Friend CEO Avi Schiffmann welcomes me into his palace—what he calls his large apartment in San Francisco.

He props his feet up on the side table and leans back, a round, softly glowing circular Friend pendant dangling from a yellow cord around his neck.

This is the second iteration of the Friend necklace, the controversial AI companion device that just about everyone (me included) seems to hate.

The first version of Friend was an always-listening AI wearable that responded via text message.

That has changed the shape of the pendant, as the underside with the speaker is bulkier than before.

Gemini Robotics 2 combines several different AI models into a single system.

A vision language model (VLM), which understands images and video, can communicate with humans and reason how to perform different tasks.

In video demonstrations shared ahead of the release, the company showed several different robots performing complex tasks autonomously using the amalgamated model.

Giving frontier AI models access to robots so that they can wander around workplaces or homes and manipulate objects does, however, come with risks.

It’s also introducing ASIMOV-Agentic, a new benchmark for measuring the safety of various AI systems collaborating to control a robot.

After years of standing by optical switch technology, Razer has finally jumped on the bandwagon and made its own Hall Effect keyboard.

Razer still stands by its optical switches, at least according to its PR representatives.

As a result, Razer’s first Hall Effect keyboard, the Hunstman V3 HE, came into existence.

Instead, it offers a simple and basic Hall Effect keyboard that does exactly what it says on the box.

Though some switches feel slightly overlubed, to the extent that the bottom-out of the keystroke feels mildly tacky.

Polymarket’s every move is under close scrutiny these days, as the prediction market giant fights dozens of legal battles about how it can operate.

Prior to his stint at Elon Musk’s so-called DOGE, Mendelson worked as an investor for the venture capital firm Accel in San Francisco, which invests in technology companies.

This June, he took a role as the chief regulatory and legal affairs officer at Novig, a newer, well-funded sports-focused prediction market.

He also sees overlap in the appetite for risk in both DOGE and the prediction markets space.

Although many detractors say prediction markets’ offerings are sports betting products in disguise, the leaders in this space aim to compete wi…

Google announced that it's integrating Nano Banana, the company's generative AI image creator, directly into Google Earth.

To be more specific, Google has added its latest AI image generation model, Nano Banana 2, to its mapping platform and has rolled out a number of ways that users can utilize AI in Google Earth as well.

Maika Monroe stars as Winifred Notty, "the sanest person she's ever met," in Victorian Psycho, a bloody horror-comedy that'll have you frankly terrified of the Longlegs and 100 Nights of Hero star.

Described by Mashable entertainment editor Kristy Puchko in her review as "what if gothic horror were an eat-the-rich comedy?"

the film follows the plot of a murderess governess (Monroe), appointed to teach the spoiled children of the aristocratic Pounds in late 19th century England.

Previously unveiled at the Cannes Film Festival in May, the DJI Osmo Pocket 4P is an upgraded version of the Osmo Pocket 4 released earlier this year, which itself is a successor to 2023's Osmo Pocket 3 .

However, the Osmo Pocket 4P differentiates itself by having a more professional audience in mind.

Credit: DJIDJI's Osmo Pocket 4P will come in both Black and Pearl White colourways, with the latter to arrive at a later date.

Sadly, the Osmo Pocket 4P doesn't have a U.S. release date, as DJI is still awaiting authorisation to launch from the U.S. government.

To quote an ancient Jedi Master "Begun, the AI price wars have!"OpenAI is sharply reducing the prices of two models in its GPT-5.6 frontier series, cutting GPT-5.6 Luna, the smallest and fastest model in the series, by 80% and GPT-5.6 Terra, the mid-tier model, by 20%, while adding a premium Fast mode for its flagship GPT-5.6 Sol model.The cuts place Luna much closer to the lowest-cost commercial models in the market and arrive just a few days after Anthropic released its highly performant Claude Opus 5 at the same price as Opus 4.8, and Google introduced Gemini 3.6 Flash and Gemini 3.5 Flash-Lite, two rival models built around lower inference costs, faster execution and more efficient agen…

Every time a Mastercard gets tapped, the network has less than a tenth of a second to judge how likely the purchase is to be fraudulent. It made that call across 175 billion transactions last year. Now the buyer on the other side of that judgment is starting to change, and Greg Ulrich, the company's chief AI and data officer, spelled out the consequence for the VB Transform 2026 audience in Menlo Park on July 14.

Presented by NTT DATA AIVistaVentureBeat’s June research found that 69% of enterprises are still running AI agents that share credentials, a practice associated with higher rates of security incidents and near-incidents. But at VB Transform 2026, Mukesh Karki, CTO of NTT DATA AIVista, and Mayank Upadhyay, chief security and trust officer at Snowflake, argued that fixing identity is only the first step.

"These organizations need to be able to prove to their auditors in a very tamper-resistant fashion that those re…

Presented by SAPEnterprise AI has moved from experiment to execution, and that shift is beginning to show real returns. The SAP Value of AI Report 2026, produced with Oxford Economics and based on a survey of 2,600 business leaders across 13 countries, found that AI now supports nearly one-third of all tasks in the average organization, rising to 30% from 25% last year. ROI expectations for agentic AI have jumped from 10% last year to 17% this year, but many organizations believe AI could be delivering far more value.

Nimble today launched Web Search Agents, a new retrieval system designed to help AI agents perform more 21% more accurate web research while using significantly fewer tokens — 51% less compared with leading AI search alternatives on comparable, according to the firm. While Nimble did not disclose its specific benchmarking methodology or competitors evalu…

Target SVP Siobhán Mc Feeney says the AI models her company runs aren't what gives Target its edge — everything built around them is."There's a lot in it. That to us is the moat," Mc Feeney said at VB Transform 2026. "The models are great, and they're important. They're just not sufficient to be the competitive advantage."That discipline shows up early in how Target decides whether to build an agent at all. Mc Feeney was blunt, even "controversial" by her own admission, about the current AI moment: every enterprise wants AI agents, but not everything needs one, she said.Agents earn their autonomy over time rather than getting it by default, she said — a principle that runs through everythin…

Bright Machines wants to solve one of the least glamorous but most consequential problems in the AI buildout: what happens to quality data when a human being has to touch the production line.The San Francisco-based manufacturer announced today the Hybrid BRC (Bright Robotic Cell), an expansion of its Bright Factory platform that lets human operators step inside a sensor-monitored robotic cell to perform prescribed assembly steps — without breaking the digital record that tracks every server from its first screw to its shipping label.It sounds like an incremental hardware update. It isn't. The Hybrid BRC is a direct answer to a structural weakness in high-stakes electronics manufacturing — o…

Visa aimed Anthropic's Claude Mythos at the infrastructure behind billions of daily transactions, a network that spans more than 200 countries and territories, moves money in roughly 160 currencies, and connects nearly 5 billion payment credentials to more than 175 million merchant locations. The model stitched minor weaknesses deep in the stack into working exploit chains that would traditionally have surfaced only late in penetration testing. Rajat Taneja, Visa's president of technology, walked the VB Transform 2026 audience through what came next, including why Visa released the harness that governed the entire hunt as open source and why the company abandoned traditional remediation met…

Instacart is posing the provocative question: What if most of the work your engineers do today should, in fact, be done by machines?At VB Transform 2026, CTO Anirban Kundu argued that dev teams continue to waste their time on draining, repetitive, high-volume work; this should be absorbed by AI agents so that humans can focus on problems that require judgment, intent, and exception handling. In fact, in 97% of cases, Instacart’s builders don’t even read code anymore. “In the past, the tactical level was the creation of the code,” Kundu said. “In the most tactical level going forward, it's going to be, ‘How do you navigate around the AI system to give you what you want?’”AI generating code, …

ZDNET's key takeawaysYou can still use Android Auto, even when there's no mobile data.

But instead of doing the usual and letting Android Auto and all its Gemini wisdom guide us, we agreed to become minimalists for a day.

Not to the extremes of using a physical map to navigate the two-and-a-half-hour road trip, but with our phones tucked away, notifications turned off, and using Android Auto offline only.

Tackling zero-coverage zonesThe biggest advantage of running Android Auto offline is still being able to navigate with predownloaded maps, especially in areas with little to no signal.

By the end of the weekend, the consensus was clear: Android Auto offline is a viable path if you're worri…

ZDNET's key takeawaysThe OpenAI rogue model attack went beyond Hugging Face.

The answer appears to be "not at all," based on the revelation that OpenAI's autonomous models hacked their way into not only Hugging Face but also, according to a Reuters report, a Modal Labs AI customer.

It also appears that Hugging Face and Modal Labs, an AI infrastructure company, weren't the only ones.

The remaining two accounts were accessed by the models in a read-only manner, and were not used in furtherance of compromising Hugging Face."

Also: 10 ways AI can inflict unprecedented damageSince then, OpenAI has said, "No models planned for the upcoming release were involved in exploiting Hugging Face.

Almost all (95%) field service organizations now use AI, and 85% plan to increase investments over the next two years, according to Salesforce's State of Field Service research, a survey of over 2,300 field service professionals across nine countries.

Field service organizations are also seeing increased revenue from field operations (39%), possibly due to faster response times for customers (39%).

Based on current adoption trajectories, it is likely that 100% of field service organizations will use AI by 2027.

Only 16% of field service organizations have field and back-office functions integrated on a single platform.

But after using it for a week, I think it's good enough to be a direct threat to flagship flip phones.

From Motorola's Razr lineup to Samsung's own Galaxy Z Flip series, these devices are meant to fit in every pocket.

Flip phones fold into a smaller footprint, whereas book-style foldables unfold to give you a mini tablet on the go.

Sure, the Z Fold 8 is taller than traditional flip phones when folded, but it remains small enough to fit more pockets.

Also: Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra vs. Motorola Razr Ultra: How Samsung fares against its foldable rivalOne could argue that they can save $600 by opting for a smaller Flip 8 over the $1,900 Galaxy Z Fold 8.

Today, Google is announcing the integration of AI-based image generation into Google Earth, effectively embedding Nano Banana 2 inside the mapping software.

Both Google Maps and Google Earth have been around for just over 20 years.

More to the point, the Nano Banana add-on to Google Earth isn't as much an integrated feature as a bolt-on accessory.

Rather than work with deep knowledge of the environment portrayed on the Google Earth screen, it works as if Google Earth simply passes it a screenshot and a prompt.

While Nano Banana in Google Earth is a mere curiosity, it could become considerably more over time.

Earlier this year, Apple unveiled the MacBook Neo, a competitively priced MacBook, at a private NYC event.

Where to purchaseThere are a few ways to purchase through Apple's educational store.

The colors of the MacBook Neo.

Kerry Wan/ZDNETThis positions the MacBook Neo as an ideal laptop for surfing the web, responding to email, completing basic tasks, and connecting to your iPhone.

If you're a student or educator, or know someone in your life looking to scoop up the MacBook Neo for school next year, don't delay.

Satechi's CubeDock combines a high-speed docking station with a built-in SSD enclosure - and it works so well.

New smartphones boast batteries with higher-than-ever mAh numbers, but it's actually a small factor in how long the battery lasts.

Are free streaming services that bad? I swapped my paid subscriptions for free ones to see.

China’s biggest EV maker will unveil its first humanoid robot in August, at its Di Space experience centres in Zhengzhou, the company told the South China Morning Post.

Executive vice-president Stella Li wants two or three robots in every BYD store, greeting customers and explaining cars.

BYD already builds its own batteries, motors and electronics at huge scale, and Li argues cars and robots share the same roots.

Xpeng is trialling its Iron robot, Li Auto is exploring designs, and Chery’s Aimoga is already selling to consumers.

BYD has also denied separate reports of a factory robot line, so much remains unconfirmed.

It wants to stuff them all into a single app.

On its earnings call this week, chief executive Satya Nadella confirmed Microsoft is building a Copilot “super app.” It merges chat, coding, the Cowork research tool and Microsoft’s new autonomous agents, called Autopilots, into one place.

Bringing them together in one super app is “a major step forward,” he added, promising to share more soon.

The “super app” is the industry’s current obsession.

Microsoft’s cloud and Copilot growth helped its shares jump this week, and the super app, built on its Copilot Cowork plumbing, is now its flagship AI bet.

The US wanted to keep Chinese robots out.

China has threatened “resolute” retaliation after Washington moved to bar imports of Chinese-made humanoid robots.

It sweeps up almost any new wireless, software-controlled robot over 4.4 pounds that can sense its surroundings, from robot lawnmowers to sidewalk delivery bots to Chinese robot vacuums.

The timing is also bad for Chinese robot makers.

“This is bad news for Chinese humanoid producers planning their IPOs in the coming months,” said Counterpoint’s Marc Einstein.

The lucky dip of stumbling on a cheap seat on a popular flight is starting to disappear.

Airlines are handing their pricing to artificial intelligence, and on busy routes that mostly means one thing: higher fares.

AI replaces those spreadsheets with models that weigh dozens of variables in real time and adjust continuously to demand, Bloomberg reported.

The same models can cut fares on quieter routes to fill empty seats, so off-peak and low-demand flights could get cheaper.

Critics counter that airlines run on thin margins and will use ever-sharper tools to lift average fares and fill more seats.

Intel is quietly handing one of its crown jewels to a tiny, stealthy startup.

Rosaic is led by Amarjit Gill, a veteran chip executive and venture investor.

The pair helped build the founding team at Rivos, a chip startup that Meta bought last year, outbidding Intel, while Tan was its chairman.

It gives a customer deep exposure to Intel’s intellectual property, one veteran chip executive said, enough to build their own custom designs.

Intel rarely shares its x86, and opening Atom to a nimble startup could seed markets it cannot chase alone.

Apple wants to buy cheap memory chips from China to ease a shortage.

The senators wrote to Cook, urging Apple to drop any plan to buy Chinese memory.

The China-only loophole, and the jobsApple’s pitch is that the Chinese memory would only go into devices sold in China.

Cheap Chinese memory, the senators fear, could undercut those Chips-Act-backed projects.

The senators want Apple to commit by 21 August to keep CXMT and YMTC memory out of its products entirely.

Winamp and Deezer announced a partnership on Wednesday that will let Deezer power a new Winamp premium subscription.

Winamp keeps its own brand, its own look, and its own idea of how a music player should feel.

A next-generation Winamp Player is due in the first half of 2027, pitched as a way to “reinvent the music player for the streaming era.”One player to rule them allThe pitch is a single app that holds everything.

Streaming tracks would sit next to your local music files, internet radio, podcasts and personal cloud collections, all in one place.

The difference this time, the company argues, is that there is real streaming infrastructure underneath, rather than a fresh coat of paint.

Amazon is winding down most of its flagship Nova AI models.

Under previous AI chief Rohit Prasad, Amazon spread itself across text, image and video models.

It is keeping Nova 2 Lite, Nova 2 Sonic, the Nova Forge customisation service and the Nova Act agent tool.

Where Amazon actually winsAmazon never made Nova a household name the way OpenAI, Anthropic and Google did with their models.

Whether it can also build a frontier model that developers actively choose over Claude, Gemini or GPT is what re:Invent will test.

Modern defence systems run on AI, from command software to the navigation and decision-making inside drones and missiles.

Where firms like Scale AI built businesses labelling data for any and all models, Agon is wagering that defence AI will be far more specialised.

“Our launch today reflects the critical need for Europe to establish its own sovereign defence AI capability,” co-founder Junaid Hussain said.

Constant led Applied Intuition’s European defence business, was a senior director for Europe at Anduril, and spent 13 years in the British Army before that.

Hussain is a serial entrepreneur who co-founded the defence startup Cambridge Aerospace and the AI gaming company Iconic.

NHS England has admitted that a key data-protection document misstated who could see patients’ medical records.

NHS England confirmed back in May that some supplier staff can reach identifiable patient information there.

NHS England says the supplier access is technically necessary.

Sam Smith, coordinator at the campaign group medConfidential, said the framing lets NHS England off too lightly.

NHS England says it will implement the National Data Guardian’s recommendations in full.

Wiz researchers found a single credential that could unlock every database running on Microsoft’s Azure Cosmos DB.

They named it the Cosmos Master Key.

Cosmos DB is core Azure plumbing, and Microsoft services such as Teams, Entra ID and Copilot all store data in it.

The same class of tool that broke into companies this month just helped find a master key to a flagship cloud.

This week Wiz aimed them at Azure and found a master key.

The AI necklace that a chunk of New York wanted gone is back, and this time it talks.

Friend, the pendant that listens to your day and pipes up with commentary, has re-launched with a speaker so it can reply out loud.

The new version, which founder Avi Schiffmann is calling “Friend 2.0,” adds spoken replies.

Friend’s memories of you last just 30 days unless you pay $9.99 a month to keep them.

Critics of these devices, including Signal’s Meredith Whittaker, keep making the same point: AI chatbots are not friends.

The star host of “The Diary of a CEO” has lost four core staffers in five months, Business Insider reported.

One described Sylvester and Erith as the “inner circle” behind the “heavy lifting” of the podcast.

Bartlett has since added fact-check labels to some YouTube episodes where guests make contentious claims.

Like the wider creator economy, DOAC is a business built on one person’s name, scaling faster than the team around it.

Can a show defined by its inner circle keep its edge once that circle is gone?

ChatGPT is about to become the first AI chatbot to face Europe’s toughest platform rules.

The European Commission plans to place OpenAI’s chatbot and the gaming platform Roblox under the strictest tier of the Digital Services Act.

ChatGPT’s search function would be designated a “very large online search engine.” Roblox would become a “very large online platform.” Both crossed the DSA’s trigger of 45 million monthly users in the bloc.

It adds ChatGPT and Roblox to a list of around two dozen platforms carrying the DSA’s heaviest obligations.

The DSA’s core aim is protecting children online, and Roblox is where millions of them gather.

The company’s own internal metrics show projects running wildly over budget, including one that burned $1.8m before anyone noticed.

The worst one used Anthropic’s Claude to match author records against product listings on Amazon’s store.

Anthropic’s Haiku costs a third of the Sonnet model Amazon reached for.

The overspend came from picking the frontier model by default and leaving the guardrails off, exactly the mistake Amazon and Anthropic tell other companies to avoid.

For the thousands of firms now leaning on AI to cut costs, a runaway job that hides for five months is the difference between a budget and a crisis.

It was also Apple’s slowest Services growth since Q2 2025 and its weakest Q3 growth rate since 2023.

Additionally, findings from the Epic v. Apple case showed that gaming apps alone accounted for approximately 70% of App Store revenue.

Back to today’s earnings call and the slowdown of Apple’s Services revenue, Parekh said:We also had some factors that impacted the performance of the App Store.

And keep in mind, we also made some changes to the App Store business model in certain countries.

Interestingly, weaker App Store gaming commissions were not the only factor behind the slowdown in Apple’s Services growth.

During today’s conference call, Tim Cook addressed Apple’s mounting memory supply and pricing challenges, but suggested that adding more suppliers may not actually bring product prices back down.

But it could help on the supply side.

Interestingly, Cook made a point of correcting himself after initially suggesting that additional suppliers might also help lower prices, perhaps to curb expectations.

It is worth noting that Apple reportedly plans to use memory from Chinese suppliers in devices sold outside the US.

Still, the move would likely help it reserve components from its existing suppliers for products sold in the American market, improving both domestic and foreign device availability.

Cook suggested that the financial outlook for Siri AI is still unclear, but did mention in passing that heavy users of Siri AI will be faced with an iCloud+ subscription paywall.

For the first time, Apple has publicly suggested that there will be a paid component to Siri AI.

While the exact usage limits are not yet known, Cook indicated that customers cannot use Siri AI for free indefinitely.

iOS 27 with Siri AI requires an iOS device or Mac capable of Apple Intelligence, and will launch later this year.

Due to regulatory restrictions, Siri AI will not be available in Europe or China for the foreseeable future.

During today’s earnings call discussing its Q3 2026 results, Apple said it is bracing for a tougher September quarter, with growing supply pressures affecting its most important products.

iPad, iPhone, and Mac to face growing supply constraintsToday, Apple reported strong Q3 2026 results, driven by double-digit growth in iPhone and Mac revenue and a 27% increase in profit.

During today’s call discussing Apple’s Q3 2026 results, CEO Tim Cook took a moment to mark his final earnings call at the helm of the company, and to confirm that incoming CEO John Ternus will lead future calls.

Tim Cook observes final earnings call as Apple CEOApple is currently holding its quarterly earnings call to discuss the $109.42 billion in revenue it reported for the third fiscal quarter of 2026.

Before opening the call to questions from analysts, Cook took a moment to reflect on his final earnings call as Apple CEO.

He also confirmed that John Ternus will lead the company’s quarterly calls going forward, something that had remained unclear, since CEOs are not required to participa…

In its quarterly results, Apple reported that research and development expenses climbed to a record $11.73 billion, continuing the sharp acceleration in spending seen throughout fiscal 2026.

Apple increases R&D expensesLast quarter, Apple reported research and development expenses of $11.4 billion, a 34% year-over-year jump.

Today, Apple released its Q3 2026 results, reporting a record $11.73 billion in research and development expenses.

That marked a 32% increase from the year-ago quarter and brought Apple’s total R&D spending for fiscal 2026 so far to $34.04 billion.

For the breakdown of Apple’s Q3 2026 results, follow this link.

And alongside the earnings report, the company shared that it now has over 1.5 billion paid subscriptions.

Cook said Apple has 1.5 billion paid subscriptions, which includes iCloud as well as app subscriptions in the App Store for which Apple takes a cut.

Back in 2023, Apple reported that it had surpassed 1 billion subscriptions.

Apple subscriptions include its own in-house services like Apple TV, Apple Music, iCloud+, and the Apple One bundle.

But it’s widely expected that a very large chunk of the 1.5 billion number comes from App Store app subscriptions too.

Apple just released its earnings report for the third fiscal quarter of 2026.

The company reported $109.4 billion in revenue, $29.8 billion in net profit, and $2.02 in earnings per share.

Here’s the full breakdown.

Apple sees Q3 revenue climb 16% year over yearLast year, for its third fiscal quarter, Apple reported $94.04 billion in revenue, $23.43 billion in net profit, and earnings per share of $1.57.

For this quarter, the company expected revenue to grow between 14% and 17% year over year, implying revenue of roughly $107.2 billion to $110 billion.

iPhone 18 Pro could make a major transition away from Qualcomm modems in favor of an Apple-designed C2.

Qualcomm report boosts chances of iPhone 18 Pro having new C2 chipQualcomm has been Apple’s primary supplier of iPhone cellular modems for a very long time.

It’s been rumored for a while that this fall’s iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone Ultra will include a next-gen C2 chip from Apple.

And I can’t imagine that would be true if the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max had Qualcomm modems in the US.

In any case, I’m hopeful that iPhone 18 Pro will have the C2 chip that’s long been rumored—even in the US.

But, alongside the summer sale price on AirPods Pro 3 at $50 off and AirPods Max 2 at $100 off, Amazon’s ongoing $500 discount on this M5 Pro MacBook Pro might be the best MacBook deal we see for the rest of the summer, if not much longer.

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.

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
