This year’s new Apple Watch models come with a variety of upgrades, including battery improvements on the Ultra 3 and Series 11. But looking into the fine print reveals that Apple’s battery estimates come with an important asterisk. Apple’s battery estimates now include sleep tracking, but didn’t before Battery life is one of the most important features of any mobile device. Any battery gains tend to be a big deal for users.

As a mom, I'm always multitasking and thinking about what I need to do next. This also includes when I'm going to schedule in my workouts.

VPNs and Age-Verification Laws: What You Need to Know

The problem is how the verification happens. You aren’t verifying your age with the government. You’re routing it through an independent third party, and most of the laws on the books are designed specifically in this way. In the UK, for example, Reddit verifies with Persona, and Bluesky uses Kids Web Services (owned by Epic Games).

Randomly selecting points inside a triangle

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-04 07:29:33

If you have a triangle with vertices A, B, and C, how would you generate random points inside the triangle ABC? Barycentric coordinates One idea would be to use barycentric coordinates. Generate random numbers α, β, and γ from the interval [0, 1]. Normalize the points to have sum 1 by dividing each by their sum. Return αA + βB + γC. This generates points inside the triangle, but not uniformly. Accept-reject Another idea is to use an accept-reject method. Draw a rectangle around the triangl

Adjacency Matrix and std:mdspan, C++23

In graph theory, an adjacency matrix is a square matrix used to represent a finite (and usually dense) graph. The elements of the matrix indicate whether pairs of vertices are adjacent or not, and in weighted graphs, they store the edge weights. In many beginner-level tutorials, adjacency matrices are implemented using vector of vectors (nested dynamic arrays), but this approach has inefficiencies due to multiple memory allocations.

Flynn Lives in New ‘Tron: Ares’ Trailer That Goes Heavy on Jeff Bridges

There are a lot of big names in the cast of Tron: Ares but, really, there’s one that truly sells the movie. That’s Jeff Bridges. Bridges, of course, starred in the first Tron over 40 years ago, as well as its sequel, Tron: Legacy, 15 years ago. His character, Kevin Flynn, is the key to everything that has happened in this story, and while Tron: Ares doesn’t seem to be about him, the fact he’s in it at all is a major selling point.
