Why Browser Company at $610M is cheap

first, what does this price mean for the browser company? their last round valued them at $550m, so this is basically giving the previous investors their money back. in other words, bare minimum price they could sell for without somebody taking a loss. pretty bad for them: the market sees no future value, josh’s “vision” for browsers couldn’t get better than buzzwords. second, what does this price mean for atlassian? they have $3b cash, so this is 20% of their piggy bank. and with $1.2b q3 prof

In a bizarre (or hilarious) late-night episode that underscored public unease with autonomous vehicles, several men climbed onto stalled Waymo robotaxis in San Francisco’s Marina District and began attacking them. They then started sitting and climbing on them and, at one point, began doing backflips off the driverless cars while a crowd cheered. City police eventually cleared the scene, but the incident highlights growing tensions over deployments of robotaxis in urban areas. So what happene

Anker Innovations, to give it its full name, incorporates not just Anker products (now the number one mobile charging brand in the world) but also the eufy smart home range and the Soundcore series of earbuds, headphones, and speakers.

Venice’s Iconic Winged Lion Statue Has a Mysterious Origin Story

gizmodo.com Margherita Bassi 2025-11-21 08:20:12

One of the most iconic symbols of Venice is the winged lion sculpture that perches atop a column in the Piazza San Marco, or St. Mark’s Square. It’s even depicted on the flag of the Republic of Venice. But while it is known as the Lion of Venice, the statue’s origin story appears to be far murkier than once believed. In a new paper published Thursday in the journal Antiquity, researchers lay out evidence that the bronze statue was made using copper ore from the Lower Yangzi River basin in China

Galaxy S26 Edge leaked renders point to slim body, not-so-slim camera bump

The Galaxy S26 Edge could be thinner than its predecessor at its thinnest point, but this three-tiered camera bump could make it thicker overall.
