I tested the Garmin Vivoactive 6 and Apple Watch SE, and I still prefer Garmin as a gym mate

androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-02-22 11:00:02

Kaitlyn Cimino / Android Authority The Apple Watch SE is the blueprint for what most people expect from a smartwatch: a clean design, deep smartphone integration, and enough wellness tracking features to stay reasonably healthy. At a reduced price compared to the brand’s flagship lineup, the SE is also accessible. However, with the launch of the Vivoactive 6, Garmin seems to be stepping up to the plate with a potential competitor. After testing both watches side by side, it’s clear Garmin isn’

Using the same robotaxi technology, Tesla showed the delivery process of a Model Y from its Gigafactory Texas in Austin to a customer with a roughly 30-minute journey as seen in a video posted on X. Unlike the robotaxi service launch last week, the automated delivery had no safety monitor, nor anyone behind the wheel. Tesla's CEO, Elon Musk, also posted on X that the

LLMs Bring New Nature of Abstraction

Like most loudmouths in this field, I've been paying a lot of attention to the role that generative AI systems may play in software development. I think the appearance of LLMs will change software development to a similar degree as the change from assembler to the first high-level programming languages. The further development of languages and frameworks increased our abstraction level and productivity, but didn't have that kind of impact on the nature of programming. LLMs are making that degree

Often, chatting by voice is more convenient, more natural, and more fun than trying to converse through text prompts.
