But if you keep your iPhone up to date with the latest iOS releases, you can bring the volume bar back to your Lock Screen, giving you more precise control over your iPhone's v

I was surprised by how simple an allocator is

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2026-03-03 08:20:41

Table of Contents Introduction Recently I was looking at an issue on mimalloc, a "state-of-the-art" memory allocator developed by Microsoft. The issue was quite simple, developers wanted a way to preallocate a piece of memory and use it as mimalloc's heap. Seeing that mimalloc does not offer this feature, I thought: "how hard can it be to write a memory allocator to manage a preallocated region?". The answer to this question is: "given enough time, even a monkey with a typewriter can write

Dhruv Bhutani / Android Authority As an avid traveler, Google Maps Timeline has long been one of my favorite hidden features. I’m used to opening it on slow Sunday afternoons and wandering through my own travel history. It showed alleyways I had forgotten, long layovers that blurred together while stepping out for a quick brunch across a new city, and impulsive last-minute rail journeys across Eastern Europe that never made it into photos.

How Texas’ hands-off approach to autonomous vehicles gave Tesla an opening

theverge.com Mack Degeurin 2026-03-09 14:00:00

Last week, a Tesla Model Y with the word “ROBOTAXI” scratched into its side and no one in the driver seat made a turn off Austin’s bustling South Congress Avenue. Another Tesla, described by autonomous vehicle experts as a “chase vehicle,” followed closely behind. Tesla CEO Elon Musk commented on the clip, seemingly confirming that the lead car was one of roughly 10 vehicles comprising the company’s robotaxi fleet, expected to make their official debut sometime next week.

Here’s a problem with local-first software. You want to work on a document together with a friend who lives far away from you. That sounds like local-first’s bread and butter: store the document as a CRDT, then use some sort of sync server to merge updates and relay them between you and your friend. But there’s a catch: the contents of that document are secret. So secret, in fact, that you don’t even want the app developer to know what they are. One way to solve this is end-to-end encryption.
