engadget.com Unknown 2025-09-20 14:12:54

In a post on Truth Social, Trump said both that the two had "made progress" on "approval of the TikTok Deal" and that he "appreciate[s] the TikTok approval." Trump also told reporters in the Oval Office that "he approved the TikTok deal,"

Google figured out early on that video would be a great addition to its search business, so in 2005 it launched Google Video. Focused on making deals with the entertainment industry for second-rate content, and overly cautious on what users could upload, it flopped. Meanwhile, a tiny startup run by a handful of employees working above a San Mateo, California, pizzeria was exploding, simply by letting anyone upload their goofy videos and not worrying too much about who held copyrights to the clip

Classic recessive-or-dominant gene dynamics may not be so simple

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-09-22 16:52:21

In brief A new Stanford study explores how fruit fly populations maintain genetic diversity amid changing environments, which is crucial for survival against future challenges. The research provides direct evidence to support the theory of “dominance reversal” in genetics. Findings indicate that genetic variants can act as dominant or recessive based on environmental conditions – which gives the flies long-term pesticide resistance. Populations live in rapidly changing environments – droughts
